Lol, well, I mean, I need a better idea of what first messages should look like. Mine suck horribly, maybe the worst guy in terms of messaging..

I've actually looked into getting a lobotomy.
Why don't you find someone whose profile you find intriguing and just cut and paste her main verbage and then we'll all send you a one liner that you can contemplate sending?
"I'm going to do the basics. Or at least try to.
I'm Sarah. The three things that describe me are: silly, caring, indifferent.
I'm fairly new to Orange County. I was born and raised in small desert town.
It's almost too pretentious to write a bio about yourself, but I'm not one of those people who would believe that. I think I know myself pretty well, but I don't think I need to air out everything on an OKCupid profile.
I would describe myself as laid back - as in, I really don't give a **** about much. I'd rather make a shitty joke about anything that get into a serious debate. I also swear more than my mother would like me to. I don't have much of a handle on my filter.
But with that certain "laidbackness" (I'll copyright that word later) I also have a pretty rambunctious personality. I'm quite the chatter box. I can talk your ear off. I'm sorry. Kind of. On that note, I'm quite open. It doesn't take me long to become comfortable with a person. I don't really hide things about myself. I'm very open. I don't like to lie. I'm not even good at it. I'm also forgiving.
I'm 70% homebody. 30% Going out. At least, in the world I live in now. I'm sure if I was making more money, I'd want to go out more. But my favorite things in the world include: sitting around a fire and telling stories/joking around, playing board games, and throwing dinner parties.
I'm quite content with myself. I'm okay with what I'm doing with my life but I'm trying to better myself still. I think that's pretty important to mention.
I like to break out in song, but I'm tone deaf.
I'm more of a cat person than a dog person.
My favorite color is orange.
I'm a Unitarian Universalist. Meaning, I study multiple religions and don' believe that there's only one correct way. Feel free to ask me about it.
I'm a libertarian. POLITICS, yo.
Just one last note here, I think you need to have a good sense of humor and certain confidence to be on here. So kudos to all y'all OKC kids. Those are two traits that I find very admirable in any person. "
"if you're not a bro.
if you're not a gangsta.
if you're clever.
if you're funny.
if you're smart.
if you're interesting.
if you can be silly.
if you resemble a lumber jack. Beards. Yes, please.
if you can carry an intelligent conversation with me and then goof around when things get too heated.
if you're a light hearted asshole.
if you're handy
if you're all of the above.
** I almost always do the whole star rating thing at the top of the page hoping to get that message about "both of you rated each other a 4 or 5 star". :) You should try it, it helps break the ice a bit. "
Same girl, a number of mutually liked films and music but that list is LOOOONG..Anyway, maybe she's too awesome for a guy like me to even bother with. I mean, I chuckled a few times, pretty interesting stuff..
how about: "I'd like to tap into the 30% "going out" part of you and eventually meet you for a coffee. *gringz*" "You sound fun and intriguing." I'm a "light hearted asshole" so we're practically a match made in heaven" What say you?"
Oh my God, those are so good...Why are you better at being a guy than I am? :(
lmao. Dude. Take a creative writing class and it will just come naturally.
I'm joining a creative writing class next semester...but none of my writing will likely be optimistic and definitely not the kind of stuff that will land me chicks. My recurring protagonist will be a more neurotic Bogart-esque guy than himself in "The Treasure of the Sierra Madre", "Casablanca" or especially "The Caine Mutiny." Don't know if I'll learn to flirt through said club or through a creative writing class, though..
Best you take a course on The Art Of Flirting or; pick up a few books on that subject at the Library then. It's not hard to flirt and it's lots of fun for both the giver and the receiver.
"Not hard to flirt"? I think it would be easier to bounce with a pogo stick on a trampoline and recite Keats than flirt.
Could ypu give s some examples of that your messages look like?
Ok....
:) :) :) :) :)
What I usually do is like I said before, open with a greeting, say what drew me to message her (usually 1 or 2 mutual likes) and ask questions about them. And as aforementioned, 60% of the time, it fails every time!
