Introduction
- Whether you're looking for love or just want a date or two, MySpace can be a pretty good place to meet new women. You can find out what they look like (provided they post honest pics), what city they live in, and all sorts of information about their lifestyles. Naturally, picking up women on MySpace -- just like anywhere else -- takes a bit of prowess and skill. You need to make sure that you make the right impression if you are going to score a date.
Step 1: Create an Appealing Profile
- Your profile represents your whole life, all wrapped up and neatly placed on a web page. This is the only thing a prospective MySpace date has to judge you by, so you need to make it shine. Here are some tips to consider when creating your profile:
- Post a flattering, yet accurate photo.
- Don't try to make yourself look or sound too sexy -- you don't want women to think that you are a sex maniac or an egotist.
- Highlight your successes, but do not brag.
- Make sure to include your occupation.
- Leave out sob stories, or emotional baggage.
- Don't get too personal; women don't need to know everything about you by reading your page
- Include hobbies and interests.
- Be honest.
Step 2: Find Women
- Once your profile is all set up, it is time to start looking for prospective dates. Do a search for women in your area, in the age range you are interested in. Once you find someone that strikes your fancy, read their profile thoroughly. You want to make sure they are single, and if their interests match your own. If they are looking for romance, do they describe the sort of relationship they are seeking? If so, it should be similar to what you are looking for yourself.
- Be wary of fake profiles. MySpace is a stomping ground for spammers and scammers who set up phony accounts with which to lure in victims for their sales pitches, or worse.
Step 3: Make an Approach
- Once you have found some women who pique your interest, you need to contact them. Send each of them a friendly email, explaining that you like their profile and want to get to know them better. Include a few details about their web pages, and let them know exactly what drew you towards them. If they reply, maintain contact. Remember to keep it friendly for at least 3 messages before you ask them out.
- Once you feel comfortable enough to ask for a date, suggest something casual, like lunch or a cup of coffee. If there is a movie or play that you know she would like to see, suggest going to see it together. Once you have asked, the ball is in her court. If she is attracted to you, she will agree to go out with you. If she does not take the bait, then it is time to leave her alone and move on.
What Not to Do
- Do not come on too strong. Just as in real life, women on the Internet do not want to feel like you are desperate, or that you are preying on them. Never suggest sex right away. Unless she's a hooker, she'll probably be grossed out. Also, do not barrage women with emails, especially if they have shown no interest. Internet stalking is illegal and creepy.
Conclusion
- Myspace can be a good place to meet women, but remember that most of the dating rules of the outside world also apply to the Internet. Create a profile that shows your true self in the best possible light, and then casually approach women you like with an email message. If it is meant to be, they will respond. If it was not meant to be, move on and keep looking until you find a good match.
