I've stated my disdain for the pathetic myspace.com.

However, if it works for TCU, then whatever - it works for him.

Everyone has their niche and methods.

I want a myspace.com shirt to wear out. How cool would that be to have peeps approach you about it?

FWIW, I'm still doing that 18yo girl I met on there - good times.

There is no control and no regulation whatsoever on sights like myspace and craigslist. Not to mention the fact that there are 500 guys to every chick. I can't see how you can muster the time or patience for that bullsh1t.

TooCold, your pic was rejected because it is illusory. Not saying that you're trying to mislead anyone, but it gives no representation as to your actual appearance. Match is very clear in their rules for your primary pic-- it cannot be anything that vague. I'm sure they would let you use it as a supplemental pic, just not the primary one.

Just as an aside, I read your profile before the link was removed. I don't say this to start any more sh1t with you, but my impression is that it comes off as a bit pretentious and undeniably condescending. You mentioned how you use it to showcase your sense of humor, but as far as I can see it comes off as completely humorLESS, if anything. Although I do see how this could attract some women, I imagine they would be the opposite of what you're looking for. Again, I'm not trying to pick a fight, just an observation.
to each his own bro, but what's up with the big-time negativity? you are incorrect and clearly have not read the posts in this thread.

you did not see my "profile" because i didn't put it up, so i'd appreciate it if you didn't trash me. what you saw was my standard yahoo basic user info, which i don't give a rats azz about and don't use for anything.

as far as waiting in line 'sympin ho's' on myspace, i ain't sympin anyone. but if you want to get technical, that is exactly what you are doing with match and yahoo, is it not? the only difference is that you're fukking paying for it!

the ratio of men to women is probably about even on myspace, NOT 500:1 or anything anywhere near it. you obviously don't know what you're talking about.

lets get down to the nitty gritty on myspace vs match and yahoo.

the latter two are strictly "dating" sites. that is, you are looking for a date(s). the implication is that you are looking for dates online because you cannot get them otherwise, men and women alike. thus, you have a disproportionate number of "bottom of barrel" if you will--those that have "resorted" to online dating. while there are exceptions, that is the underlying vibe. there is a vibe of desperation. this is why you see people saying cr@p like, "ok...i can't believe i'm doing this...my friend suggested i try this..etc". these people are rationalizing their desperation. like i said, there are exceptions, but that IS the vibe of match and yahoo.

enter myspace. it is NOT a dating site per se. it's a "social networking" site, a site to meet people, a site to show your personality, to vent, to whatever, to do crazy sh!t, TO BE YOURSELF!!! this is the vibe of myspace.

underneath it, hell yeah it's a dating site. but psychologically it's very different from match and yahoo. and this is why there are WAY more hotties on myspace than m and y. there isn't a sense that you put up a profile because you can't get a fukking date. they don't ask you a bunch of stupid questions like, "are you in a committed relationship" and "what's your ideal first 'date'".

i guess you can say that with myspace, there's no pressure and it's much less serious. let it fly.

this is this reason that myspace has exploded from 3 million to 23 million users in just a year, with no sign of stopping, and why NewCorp is purchasing it. this is why m and y are shakin in their boots--a free, and clearly more popular, service is majorly cutting into their revenues.

:woo: :cheer: :crackup: FWIW, i got 5 A-leads and 5 B-leads, with about an hour of my time. talked over the phone with two last night (THEY called ME) and one more with a quick IM session. i'm not counting those i've met before, including about 5 more hotties whom i'm messing with who have TONS of hot friends.

and i'm not even a porn producer! ER!C :p

like i said, it's a dating site without being a "dating" site.

appropriate...not two minutes ago, i get another cold call from a myspace hottie i added, 23 years old. i'm adding chicks 22-28, within 20 miles of zip, college degree or better, and who look "hot". that's it, i'll filter them out later. i just added her, no email or anything, and she sends me this...

-----
That's really interesting that you're a finance prof. I've taken a couple of semesters of corp. fin. in college, I love it and for me it was kind of like a 'what makes the world go round 101' course for anyone trying to enter the business world, not sure I see myself as a consultant or i banker, at least not for the moment, too idealistic still, or maybe to naive, I’m still hoping to get one of those jobs where I’ll help people...I’m working in human resources at an oil company over the summer, can't exactly claim I’m changing peoples lives but it's experience. Not that I don't admire what you do, finance isn't the easiest discipline and I think teaching it must take a lot of vocation. Anyway that's why your profile caught my attention, and it was funny as hell, I love your style. As for me there's some stuff in my profile, anything else you want to know just ask...

MUAH!!!

----

guarantee i'll get her on the phone. don't say she's a gold digger, you just can't tell at this point. most likely she's NOT.

when the fukking biatch asks me to buy her a car, lol.

it's pretty easy to tell fairly quickly. if i don't get a clear sign that she IS, within oh two or three dates, i assume she's not and take it from there. been wrong a few times, but whatever.

as i said, just don't buy her anything, but buy stuff for yourself. it sends the right message. i don't by chicks squat until i trust them, and even then i'm pretty careful.

this last one is a little hottie. i replied and she replied back immediately. we'll see.

so, basically, it doesn't matter in the short run, b/c you're not going to spend any $$ on her anyway.

but my concern with gold-diggerse is the patient ones, they know your net worth, they are waiting 'till you sign the dotted line.

so, if you are looking to have kids, don't you have to change methods to find women who are not interested in you b/c of the business angle?

nah...a real gold digger won't have the patience with me. she'll move on and find herself a chump.

all of this isn't really a problem for me. i tend to stick with the chicks that are the "artsy" types, and degreed, and have a good job or are on their way career wise. by default, they're "independent". if a chick has a degree, the chances of her being a gold digger drop dramatically.

you guys are more concerned about the gold digger thing than i am, that's for sure. :D

Do me a favor, don't talk to me like I've never signed on to myspace in my lifetime. I've been around the block. Every reason you mentioned as an advantage to myspace is also it's downfall. Yes, ANYONE can sign up. And they do. Take a look at *any* attractive female at random on that site. Just pick one and take a look at the comments at the bottom of the page or on their pics... I guarantee if they've been on the site for more than a month it's FILLED with chump after chump after chump raving about how hot they are and how great they are. And you're right, it's NOT a dating site. What makes you think the girl you're talking to is even looking for a date? When you go on match, you know everybody is looking to bang (for the most part). Yeah, there might be some beasts to weed-through, but personally I've never had a problem pulling perfectly acceptable girls from there. Myspace is nothing more than a giant, digital pedestal for any fine looking chick with a computer to climb up on and garner all the attention she so desires, while you and 114 other dudes shout over each other competing for her audience.

Hey, if it makes you feel insecure to be part of a "dating" site, then do what you need to do. I guess if myspace makes you less self-conscious about the fact that you're soliciting sex over the internet, then more power to you. Oh wait no, you're looking for friends, right? :rolleyes: ...

Do not be too easy. If you are too easy to get, she will not want you. If you are too easy to keep, she will lose interest in you. If you are too easy to control, she will not respect you.

Don't read too much into the whole committed relationship thing. It can countless of things depending on the person. However, you saying that you've never been in one will probably bring forth negative images from women first and formost. There's no reason to lie but there's also no reason to provide too much truth either. ;)

I agree with you: it is bad to lie and not good to say "I didn't have any relationship".
Note, that women are not going to ask you that usually...
it is websites who forced you to answer.
Match.com forces you to choose one option!

So what to do? Say "Have been in.. once". She is not going to check.

whatever you say...there's more than one dude on myspace that's getting it 'right'. i was negative on it too, a year and a half ago, but not to the extent of your out-of-hand-rejection.

i'm done with you.

I think you can say "Committed relationships but never married." Who's to say how many, it's just not "several".

Like I said, I wouldn't worry about it since it's a taboo subject during dates anyway, right?

Now bodytype on the other hand, you can always give them a taste of their own medicine with that one. ;)

just choose what d'A said. if she ask's, tell her you don't kiss and tell. that usually works.

it is annoying that match forces you to answer the questions. a lot of them are nobody's business--at least at that point.

Man you cats are crazy! :crackup:

Seriously though I've been doin it for a while (Online Dating). And I have noticed that the quality of women has gone down over the years.

Well I might have the answer for why this is so. Of course someone mentioned marriage and that is the foremost reason.

But the reason why these dating sites are SO DRY right now is because...boys it's summertime.

In the summertime, women tend to go outside more while feeling they could have more fun than being attached or tied down during nice weather. Winter time...IT'S ON! Man, you wouldn't believe the 180 that happens. Catch it in the fall, man hookers start panicing. Oh No...Look! NYE is almost here and I'm dateless. Same thing around Christmans time. I wait until early February to hit the sites because most are in the mood , after failing to keep New Year's resolutions.

What goes up must come down. It comes and goes.

Just an opinion...

The "several commited relationships but now single" option is often used as a cover for "divorced." Met one who listed this, but then saw her profile on a different site saying she was divorced. Really, what's the difference between "committed relationships but never married" and "several committed relationship but now single" apart from the marriage factor?

Huh? A dating site will not offer you these two options. It will offer only one of them, so dont worry about it.

By the way, women LOVE to be divorced: they think it shows they are in demand...Lots of women I met through online, started with "I am divorced". As if I care.
Some too bold ones even say "I had a date on Saturday" - stupid chicks think we, men, would value them more just cuz they managed to get a date or get a guy and divorce him.

I just told you that they do offer both options (match for example), and yes, I've met women who are divorced who chose the more vague option. It's fact. Someone can say they have had "Several committed relationships but now single" and be divorced without lying.
