Ok, I'm pretty new to this, but have had pretty good luck. I set up a profile on pof, and made it really short and I basically sound like a complete asshole on it. (I shamelessly took the idea from someones post on here about a year ago).

Anyway, off to the convo. My biggest struggle is going from online to a number or meeting up. I always turn AFC.

Me: Hey dude, that chick in your mirror is gorgeous, how about you hook us up?


HB8: you're somewhat original, I gotta give you that.

but I'm not into "selfish pricks", sorry. =]


Me: If you say so.. But what if I told you a sweet old lady told me I was "such a gentleman" today when I rescued her from a burning building?



HB8: haha. original AND persistent.

luckily for us both, I'm very honest. So... we can pretend I don't hate selfish pricks, you can pretend you didn't write it on your profile, and we can actually meet up sometime.

Just so we can remember that yes, i hate selfish pricks and that you did write that on your profile.

fine by me, as long as you choose a nice bar.

so feel free to message me.


** at this point I didnt write anything back, and about 12 hours later I get the following message from here..

HB8: your smile looks nice though (what i can see of it), I gotta give you that.


Not sure exactly how to proceed.


Thanks guys!

I'll say "you'll see it better in person, drinks at 9?"

text me something original and I'll send you directions to the best bar in the world, ______. xxx-xxx-xxxx

Where are you located, maybe we can suggest bars.

God, it took me forever to crack her. I probably need to change my text messaging plan after that. But were meeting up this weekend. Wish me luck!

You don't need it. She's already in your bed.
