She's not really happily smiling in most of her pics. Probably a bit awkward a person and not TOO content with life.
Probably a snarky reply, if anything.

Okcupid is not that bad. I already got a date!

You shouldn't be doing anything like this until 6+ months into a relationship, at minimum. That's kinda scary actually.
Only a fool would read the profile before checking out the pictures.
okay, apparently this girl has real life friends, but still posted a bathroom pic with the whole CVS beauty product aisle as the border of the picture?
"Acting like an idiot" is such a blanket statement. I read it and I have no fucking idéa what you mean

Yeah that's why I just left it out entirely. I figured I'd just like to seem more approachable rather.
why does she have twenty toothbrushes?!
Same. A lot of girls on okcupid don't know what "curvy" means.
Met someone from OKC last night at the bar and it went REALLY well. Not a cheap ONS...I kinda like her..
1) She's even hotter than her pics
2) Conversation wasn't even initially awkward, partly due to me showing up there buzzed already and not giving a fuck
3) We went to another bar and drank more
4) She's actually pretty fucking cool
When is it acceptable to text her again? This is someone that I actually potentially don't want to fuck things up with, and there's no way someone like this would be a cheap lay. She's a world traveler and makes a shitload of bank. My guess is the only reason a gem like this is on the site is because she's rarely in the area.

They know exactly what it means.
Man, I hate the whole "gotta wait to change your answers" because now I'm starting to see how some questions really are important to me, when I compare them to some of the answers supposed "high matches" put.
What's that, You don't think gay couples should raise children or that abortion should be an option? Then we aren't a good match.

I've been on it for about a week, messaging a couple girls a day, and I never seem to get a conversation going past the first reply. Usually I try saying an interesting comment on a shared interest or a music/film recommendation if it looks like exactly what they would be looking for.
Most girls don't respond at all though.
All the "curvy" girls I see are actually just healthy looking. Not fat.
It also seems like I get paired with a ton of bisexual polyamorous girls but I guess that's because this is a college town.

there is no set rules. I always hated that 3 day bullshit that people copy off of swingers. Just don't constantly txt her or freak out if she doesn't reply instantly. If she is sporadic in her txts, do the same. Always hated it when someone pretended like they got it later, so I'd dish the same shit back.
And if you have nothing to txt, don't just txt for the sake of it.

So I had my first ever meet with a girl from the Internet yesterday afternoon. She was from POF and she cOntacted me first. Average looks I will admit, but she was fun to hang out with. We went for coffee and had Pretty good conversation and found quite a bit of common ground.
I just wanted to get over the hump, cause its slowed down for me on the girl front. I'm hoping this kickstarts things.

Started chatting to a girl on POF. Cute, into the same music and hobbies as me. She's chatting back. Then I noticed...she is from another state. Why did you even show me her, POF?! You arsehole! I just assumed it was showing me all local people. I wanted to meet her this weekend.

No! =p
so you saw their photos and went on a date anyway?
Oh please. There's so many women on there who post old, misleading, shopped, or even fake photographs.
My advice is to ask for a skype chat. Some may be creeped out by it, but it can help weed out girls like these.

That doesn't necessarily mean anything. I don't think too many people bother with the star ratings.

I need a date for Hollywood Fringe Festival prom tomorrow night.
Who dares me to actually put this on my profile?

I recall a poster earlier saying it worked.
Just like in real life - it will attract certain people. Whether you want to date those kinds of people is a different question entirely.

I feel like this advice keeps getting repeated (in fact, the whole thread could be summed up with this), but no one pays attention to it once an interaction actually starts:
Desirable women are flooded with messages. They're also out on dates. You might not have blown it as much as you were just forgotten. Don't put time and thought into these things. Be funny, be concise, and be cool until someone really bites.
Out of curiosity, what match% are most of you messaging or being messaged by?
I'm wondering because within 25mi(with my ages preferences set from 19-24) of me there are about 20ish girls at around 90%+ match with me but then probably hundreds more in the 80's so I'm not sure where to start at..

I actually got an "I'm not interested" reply haha. Not sure if I just would have preferred no reply at all.
I spent a lot of time today redoing questions to make sure to weed out the jesus freaks, homophobes, and prolife-ers.
30 mins ago I had a 95% match visit me, she's all for religion, against abortions, and generally answered the opposite to all my core questions. WTF happened?

Where else they gonna go man?
How to spot a really insecure girl is to find skinny ones that label themselves as curvy!
lol yup.
Then there's the ones in denial who list themselves as "about average" when they're clearly overweight.
Then again, in the US "about average" could be considered overweight...
zing!
My gf showed me her OKC, and wowza she got more than 500 messages and so many of those guys seem so desperate and creepy... Yuck. And while she got that many, I got 3 when I last checked haha.
Also when she were riding me, someone from OKC called her - that was a freaking weird and awkward moment to me. =/

did she answer?
Yeah, that was the whole awkward thing to me. But she told him she have a bf now and didn't want to talk to him any further. She told me she send him the number a long time ago, before she met me.
lol, nice
