Lol...I wish I could edit the Aragorn meme so I could caption it with: "One does not simply talk to a girl as with a friend", something like that..Besides, aren't you forgetting any kind of logical tie between asking those and the response already received? I can't just not acknowledge what those girls said and start some other line of discussion..Makes no sense.

Also, what did you think of my method for introducing myself, a few posts above? Good idea, or bad?

Verbatim quote of myself: " her username I am guessing includes her name so I was thinking of using that so I can introduce myself. Something like "I am guessing from your username that your name is _______? Mine is _______." That is, in addition to the things you've suggested. I mean, this has to be perfect: I got a response! That never happens! So naturally, I can't afford to screw up/send an insufficient message.. "

Just acknowledge the "joke" as being haha or something and then ask the questions. In face to face convos there is usually a brief pause between changing subjects. Consider your change of subject, was followed by a brief pause.

Well, the picture girl I just messaged so if I screwed up...it means I shouldn't try to send messages without your help and to just wait until you can .

Oh stop! You have to put yourself out there and stop lableling anything that doesn't pan out as a "screw up." its just a lost opportunity is all. HER lost opportunity, not yours.

Well, that's true but what if I habitually say something stupid at a critical juncture that really is a screwup with someone who would have given me a chance otherwise?

What if, what if. What if your aunt had balls ~ She'd be your uncle.
She has to like you for you. (not us and what we tell you to say). If she doesn't like you for you, then its not screwing up if she stops talking to you but rather its finding out early that you're not compatible, which is a good thing.“The willingness to accept responsibility for one’s own life is the source from which self-respect springs.” ~Joan Didion

Gosh that reminds me of a 90s underrated classic pop/rock song.."Hey Leonardo (She Likes Me for Me)"...

So I just don't get it...if a girl responds, she MUST be interested, right? I can't get a foot through the door; every single time, except once using PUA lines, the conversation dies at my second message. It almost seems like they just wanna answer a question about them and then drop it.
This supports my notion of not being attractive: girls wouldn't let an attractive guy go. They'd do what they could to keep him around. Yet that never happens for me."1,2,3,4.....The highway's jammed with broken heroes on a last chance power-drive!"

Actually, if they think a guy is attractive, they will write to him first. That has happened to me a few times. Girls your age are probably looking for men in their late twenties, early thirties. You're at a tough age because you can't legally go younger than 18 or realistically over 22, since most girls like older guys. So you have a limited field to mine. While girls your age can attract men up to any age, even 40's and over. Not trying to discourage you, just pointing out that it's a odds game and not necessarily your looks.

Well, now I'm hung on the other girl, the girl that I messaged using her dog to start a conversation. Second messages are the hardest part of dating/relationships...I'd bet. NO experience with it personally, but I think becoming a paraplegic and trying to walk again is easier than this,,
