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.Originally posted by drZaius09
Myspace is a joke-- an attention wh0re's paradise. Put up your free profile and prepare to wait in line with every other doosh-bag who spends their day symping every ho within a 75 mile radius. 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.
: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.Originally posted by ER!C L!VE
:cheer: Myspace :cheer:
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.
when can you tell?don't say she's a gold digger, you just can't tell at this point
when the fukking biatch asks me to buy her a car, lol.Originally posted by iveyleeger
when can you tell?
nah...a real gold digger won't have the patience with me. she'll move on and find herself a chump.Originally posted by iveyleeger
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?
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.Originally posted by leoncour
I noticed that on every womans profile I see they say that they have been in several committed relationships. Is that their way of saying that they are desireable? Also, I have never been in a relationship - what should I put down on my profile?

myspace ... where you put your brain on pause.
I agree with you: it is bad to lie and not good to say "I didn't have any relationship".Originally posted by Francisco d'Anconia

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.Originally posted by drZaius09
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? ...
I think you can say "Committed relationships but never married." Who's to say how many, it's just not "several".Originally posted by al77
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.
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?Originally posted by al77

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

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.Originally posted by al77

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.
