Not bad.. One thing about texting... Here's what I like to use:


Me: what kinda trouble is (hb name) causing today??
Hb: who is this???
(wait about 15 minutes)
Me: (my name), but most people call just call me superman. Only two rules to bein in my inner super circle: no tellin any other girls, and no eyein SPAM's ass!

Hb: lol! What's up super man!

I'm always on a first name basis within the first three online messages....

I guess overall i agree with the basics of it
open - million ways to do this
ask her about her - usual i skip this, she'll tell you about herself to qualify anyways.
If you had to choose one place - skip this also, qualifying doesnt have to be one sentence, its usual my whole conv. Maybe do this yourself as DHV (i think is what you were getting at)
the number - yep, if she plays hard to get be the alpha though (I tried to get a number, she said no, and I said "Well I'm gunna watch this show and when I get back your number better be here" (it was on a long chat site) came back and it was there)
text game - yup, challenges and day2

Thanks OP, I'll apply this tomorrow, it's about time to send out some new messages.

Since noone else is asking about the deets, let me ask a couple questions if you don't mind.

1. How many women would you estimate you've had sex with through POF? (just to give us newbies a ray of hope of what could be possible, haha)

2. Do you ever IM the woman or is this method always done through messaging?
