| I haven't had much luck in the bars here. I tried all of the tried-and-true stuff like the cube, but no one's been biting. I think I intimidate everyone because I'm pretty alpha. I thought I'd take my game to OkCupid. I read a lot of the threads here, plus picked up some books off Amazon on good OkCupid openers. Naturalboy had a good post the other day on the steps. Opener, creating attraction, qualification face, sedation. I think my openers have been really good.
Here are some if anyone wants to steal (just don't live in DC - I don't want a copycat in DC):
Me: I really admire you for putting that bikini photo up, but you probably should have waited until you lost a few pounds.
Her: Are you serious?
After that, I told her about how I'm a personal trainer and could help her with her glutes and stuff. Made sure to throw in some compliments like how her skin looks really supple. She totally ate it up.
Me: Not really sure what your profile says. Too many run-ons. Did you even graduate high school?
Her: Lol ok grammer nazi.
After that, I sent her a revised draft of her profile with revisions - I got rid of the run-ons and stuff. Then she asked how I knew all this stuff, and I told her I was a professor in this MBA program at Georgetown. She and I got into talking about how tenure is great, and I'm looking at a 6 figure bonus this coming year. We've been joking around a lot, but she seems really serious about going to Fiji with me for spring break.
Anyway, what I need help with is this: I live in an RV. I'm broke. Not even a nice RV. It's a 1979 Dodge Honey. It's like the one from Breaking Bad. It doesn't have a heater, but I do have a twin sized air mattress in it. I made plans to meet the bikini chick and the grammar chick, but I'm not sure how to explain the RV. Or the fact that I'm kind of overweight. I've been using photos of Criss Angel in my profile, but no one's called me out on it yet. Anyway, should I just be upfront about everything? Should I splurge on a Motel 6 and keep up the personal trainer/professor lies? HELP. I have until Friday to figure this out.
