What I am supposed to expect out of Myspace? [Archive]

ClaytonN

Okay, I think the first tip for me would be to not write trip reports, as it could turn into another chuddo disaster.

However, I never really got the "Myspace" thing until I'm hearing a lot of people preaching it. Huh?

Granted, I've hooked up with a few girls thanks to Facebook, but that's a little different. I knew the girls (or at least had seem them and spoken to them once or twice) before. I get the idea that a lot of these chicks who I meet are gonna be random.

So, what exactly should I expect if I do decide to get into this? I know absolutely nothing.

Leave the window open and just click around when you're at your computer. This way you'll come up near the front of searches (since you're "online"). Girls do search for guys all the time (most of my hookups come from girls who messaged me). I have much better chances when the girl messages me than when I message her.

When a girl does message you, cut to the chase about hanging out in real life after a couple messages. Usually my third message is the "lets meet up" message, after I've established some flirting. Once you're at that point, you're pretty much in.

The best part of MySpace is taking advantage of the law of large numbers. If you send out enough messages you'll get some responses. You can do this much faster than talking to girls at a bar or party. Plus rejection hurts less in cyberspace.

Good call. Athens is a haven for gorgeous women man. I've lived here for five years and have never had a problem with lack of selection. I know you've said before that you don't go out and drink, but you can still find these women other places around town. And if facebook is workin for ya, stick to that then.
