Give me a break, we're not talking about two different species here; internet chicks and real life chicks all want the same thing: Attention.
Here's my deal with online sites; yes I use them for one simple reason.
It's working while I'm not.
Put together a GOOD profile, not some mis-spelled, ugly picture, "I'm an AFC who just wants to find a good woman" bullsh!t. If they're down they'll send you a message and you can work from there, maybe you check out a few cuties and send them messages but none of this crafting your life story stuff.
Thing is, all the DJ rules still apply:
She blows you off? Next.
She expects you to pay? Next.
Looking for her soul mate? Next.
Needs a surrogate dad for her kid? Next.
I agree its way too easy to hide behind a keyboard, but online sites are just a tool, and while some people are dependent on them, I use it to supplement my game and increase the amount of pvssy I bring in.
