trueDifferent paths but the same result.Lots of advice early on in the thread, Larry. Check out the first few pages. Don't be too form letter with your initial emails. They can tell when you've just sent the same thing out a few dozen times.I understand where you were coming from. Just out of college, I'd never really "dated" since college was all about the hookup rather than the formal asking out on a date. You'll pick it up.should there be a template as far as e-mailing the chick goes???
what should one say about themself in the profile??
have I mentioned I don't think I've ever gone on a real date? (and, yes, I was engaged... lol... we kinda skipped the dating part and went right into the super-serious relationship part)![]()
but if I say that they'll think I'm Jewish...Hi. I'm Larry. I killed Jesus.should there be a template as far as e-mailing the chick goes???
That's not money. Don't mention axe murderers or stalkers. If you want to banter about stuff like that, at least let them bring it up. Good god, this is basic stuff.Sure I am. That's money. It's lighthearted and women on those sites have definitely met their share of crazies. You are acknowleding that fact and by doing so, you are giving her some comfort that you are not one of them. Also, the word "forced" tells them that you aren't defending people like that because you want to.You're not helping.Something like, "Of course, I spend my time forced to defend axe murderers and stalkers. I'm sure you've met some of my clients through this site." would have gone off much better.
I thought it went well with the inside jokebut if I say that they'll think I'm Jewish...Hi. I'm Larry. I killed Jesus.should there be a template as far as e-mailing the chick goes???![]()

For those wondering, "Larry killed Jesus" is an inside joke, but the "they'll think I'm Jewish" is just priceless for anyone reading this.
ummm...what if those aren't accurate descriptions of you??? lolI mean... if I say slim or athletic or, really, even average... I'd be lying... should I lie? Won't they be pissed?4. Slim and skinny are good. Athletic is mostly good. Average is sketchy territory as a woman's definition of average can vary wildly. Don't write it off entirely, but be wary.
You're just plain wrong. I was very successful i-dating and would regularly break out a little axe-murderer or stalker shtick because I knew they were running into those wackos all the time.

Wow. I've been on there a few days now and have only contacted seven or eight. I like the "who's viewed me" thing. Seems like if she looked at your profile (especially if you hadn't looked at hers first) chances of a her being responsive to your email are very high.17 emails sent![]()

Don't you have some weird rules, like she can't wear makeup or pants or somesuch?knowing me... should I check out eharmony?or should I try out plentyoffish, get osme actual dates under my belt first, and then think about that?

Otis was wrong with the pedophile thing because its really creepy. Too many people have dealt either themselves or know someone affected by a pedophile. Not many people have been affected by an axe murderer and talking about an "axe murderer" is more of a joke. Take for instance the bud light commercial during the super bowl. The showed a scary looking guy with an axe, but they picked him up cause he had a case of bud light. I dont think they would show someone molesting someone but pick him up cause he had bud light. Those two people are seen in complete different lights. As for stalkers, many people on those sites post stuff saying "if i dont respond, dont keep emailing me like a stalker" or somthing of that sort. So, it defintiely fits as a joke there.Drifter, that was money...

I agree NYC must have more volume than Dallas, just makes sense. Although Dallas isn't exactly Duluth either...I didn't mean to imply that 17 was too many. I'm just always surprised at how quick some of you can crank them out. I need to improve there.Just sent #8. Of the 7 previous, got replies on 5. So much better than yahoo. Not surprised on the other two... both young and very hot with no "baggage".

I got a buddy then went out to Austin, not sure if Austin and Dallas are worlds apart or not but he was very unimpressed with the quality in Dallas, granted this guy has very high standards (higher then woz) and NYC definitely has the volume of single women so if you look in the right spots you will find the quality assuming you are "hot enough" to lure it in.Stu lives in Dallas.

Beyond that does it really matter?I've only done the tourist stuff in NYC, so I really can't say how it compares.
Edit: I'm confused on whether your second hand knowledge is of Dallas or Austin.

Money? No. This is pretty far from money. You could probably survive pulling stuff like this, but why even take the chance? It's not witty, it's a completely played out (haha, everyone is a stalker or weirdo but I'm cool), it just opens things up to misinterpretation.The whole point is to keep things chill to start with. If you want to be funny, be funny. Saying everyone is some kind of psychopath on a dating site is stale and unoriginal. Money it is not.And then let's consider the Woz factor.

It's a good time to say something like, "hey my buds are here, ttyl" and then just sign off. Gain some of that power back.so I am IM-ing this other chick, grad student at columbia and it is painful, there is like a 1 minute lag between responses - I asked her if I caught her at a bad time and she said "no just relaxing". Just a little awkward, oh well.
I took EHarmony's test thing...and they let me in...I might try that out...
