I have many misnomers and confusions startled from the whole Online dating thing. First, to me, it seems like a buffet of women, a jackpot, as long as you play the game correctly—like pick-up.

But, after reading JSmooth's, "Direct to Date," I am confused by what he says, or how to even approach such tasks he talks about.

Here's the link to the JSmooth article:

First, I can't afford Match.com, so it seems I'm going to go with Plenty of Fish.

1) What should I tailor my profile pictures to be of? Just me? Friends? Strange facial expressions?

2) And for a description.. any guides?

3) The JSmooth article talks of witty comments you open with in a message. Can anyone give me witty messages, or atleast examples?

4) Now, once she replies, do I go right into DHV stories, as he suggests? What's a great DHV story to use?

5) How long do I type the DHV stories, and how long do I continue asking her questions? Should I be playful sexually?

6) What sort of success rate should I expect online?

If anyone is willing to answer these questions, it will help me. Perhaps it won't help you, really, but atleast you have the benefit of getting me laid
