How to get a girlfriend

Have you ever wondered why all those singles on that dating site that sound so promising, and look so cute, never quite seem to be “the one”? Much like kids in candy stores, perusing all those photos of those available in your city can make it hard to keep your eyes on the prize.

We all know how it goes, you spy your perfect 10, say “OMG!”, have a quick read of the profile, very quick, because you are already thinking of something witty to attract his or her attention.

The red flags that may have gone up for someone less attractive, like listing hobbies as bone collecting, or having a goal of total world domination, or never ever working, just don’t seem that important, today.

Fast forward a bit, and all of a sudden those little red flags have all become relationship breakers. Those green eyes that snagged you in the first place just aren’t enough to counteract all those other huge issues. Do you stay or do you go?

Singles dating sites allow you to obtain an overview of the single women and men in your part of the globe.

When researching singles dating sites, you might want to think about relationship sites. These are dating sites that go a little further in the search for finding love compatibility. When signing up singles answer more in-depth questions than favourite movie, band, and weekend activity. By determining more complex issues such as goals, family attitudes, and life experiences, to mention just a few, a more thorough profile emerges as to who you really are, and the ideal dates that have a better chance of success.

Once the dating system has evaluated you, profiles of compatible dates, or potential soulmates, are sent your way. So, if you like to stay in and eventually want 4 kids, you are unlikely to be lined up with a party animal who has no desire to reproduce.

So instead of ending up with a cat hating academic, you could find yourself dating someone else who failed maths and who also aspires to open a pet refuge.

Another point to consider before signing up with any online dating site is to check out their memberships, and how well established they are. No good signing up to find the closest single is a plane trip away.

Finding your soulmate need not be like looking for a needle in a haystack. For those wanting a long term relationship and love compatibility, dating services who provide those extra services may be a great choice.

Myspace, the incredibly popular network website, is going strong these days, despite tough competition from sites like Facebook and Twitter.

There are over 200 million people on Myspace. That’s good news for you, as it is perfect for meeting women to date! Even better than most sites!

Why is this?

Because not only is MySpace free to use (a feature which ensures many, many women will use it), but MySpace actually augments, and to a certain extent, replaces the social lives of the women who use it!

What I mean by this is, women who use MySpace regularly depend on it to keep in touch with friends and fulfill their social needs. A busy girl with no time for dating or going out with friends can still feel connected to people by logging onto MySpace, chatting, sending emails, and seeing updates from their friends.

Not only that, women on MySpace tend to skew younger, which means the average age for girls who use MySpace is between 18 and 30. This actually makes meeting the women on MySpace a much easier task, because many of the women you’ll be contacting aren’t as jaded as women who’ve been playing the dating game for years.

On top of everything else, there’s a huge advantage to using MySpace to meet women because people don’t think of it as a “dating site,” therefore you’ll find lots of girls aren’t expecting guys to contact them and try and pick them up.

This means the barrier to meeting women is far less than a site that’s more of a “meat market,” like Match.com. The reason for this is because girls on dating sites get deluged with emails from guys trying to “get with them.” On MySpace, girls typically only get emails from people they know.

So here are a few easy steps you can follow to start meeting beautiful women on MySpace…

STEP 1: Create A Profile

Creating a profile on MySpace is free and very easy to do. In fact, the whole process will take you less than five minutes to complete.

STEP 2: Fill Out Your Profile

Once your profile is created, you’ll want to put information about yourself on it. Think of it like creating a profile for a dating site. You’ll want to have a flattering picture of yourself, an interesting headline that will grab people’s attention, and some information about yourself and the type of woman you are looking to meet.

Be sure to include your interests in your profile. This is a great way to give people conversation topics to chat with you about after checking out your profile.

You can also personalize your profile by changing the theme of your layout, adding music you like, adding videos you enjoy, and a whole host of other things to make your profile more personal.

STEP 3: Add People You Know As Friends

After your profile is created, invite some people you know to become friends with you. Having a small number of friends helps you look more “normal.” It’s inadvisable to begin contacting women right away without having any friends yet, since this makes it look like you’re just trying to use the site to meet chicks (something that’s actually a turn off for most girls on MySpace!)

MySpace makes this easy by accessing your address book and sending out friend requests via email. But be sure to only send an invite to people you feel comfortable letting see your profile! You may want to uncheck coworkers and the like.

STEP 4: Search For Women

MySpace has a great search feature that allows you to look for exactly the type of people you’d like to be “friends” with. Just click the Search button, but be sure to use the “Advanced Search” option.

This will allow you to search based on gender, age, race, height, and most importantly, location!

I’m partial to finding women from 20-30, who show interest in dating, and are within a few miles of my zip code.

You’ll be surprised at the results, especially if you live in a metropolitan area. After that, browse the pictures, and check out their profiles!

STEP 5: Contact Women

Once you find a profile you like, click the button to send them an email. This is done through MySpace’s system.

Your email should be short, sweet, and most of all - fun and interesting!

Sending an email that just says “Hey what’s up?” won’t get you anywhere. Instead, make your email one to two paragraphs, commenting on something about her and how well you think you’d get along.

So sending an email like:

“Hey, I was just checking through MySpace and stumbled across your profile. You seem totally awesome! Seriously, if you were living in the 80’s, you’d probably be ranked up there with Def Leopard and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, that’s how awesome your profile is, lol.

Anyway, we should chat. Email me back and tell me what your favorite 80’s movie is, and we’ll compare notes.”

As you can see, the response above is short, interesting, somewhat humorous, and bound to get a girl’s attention.

Contact as many women as you like using this method.

STEP 6: Follow Up

You’ll find most women you contact will begin to respond to you. Continue to email back and forth, and even add them as a friend if you like them. Allow them to get to know you.

Once enough rapport has been built up, you say you’re bored with email and ask them for their number so you can text them.

Telling them you’re going to text them as opposed to call them is important, because then they’ll be sure to give you their cell phone number, and they’re not committing to have to talk to you on the phone. Most girls will be willing to share their cell phone number if you approach them like this.

Once you have the number, start texting, ask when a good time to chat is, and then call them up at the appropriate time to set up a date, or a get-together.

It’s really that simple to meet women on MySpace. And you’ll find the quality of women, in terms of looks, is much better than most paid dating sites!

Here are some other quick tips to help you use MySpace to get dates…

–Download MySpace Messenger so you can chat with your friends and other women when you’re online. IM sessions go a long way towards establishing rapport!

–Look through your friend’s friends to find girls you like. Meeting through someone you both mutually know can make the transition to romance much easier than approaching a girl you don’t know.

–Dating is a numbers game, so try and meet as many women through MySpace as possible to maximize your chances of finding a winner.

–Ask women you meet throughout your life if they’re on MySpace, and get their email so you can add them as friends. This is a great way to keep in touch and follow up with women you’re interested in.

–If you mess things up with a girl, don’t sweat it. There are so many out there you’ll have plenty of chances to get things right with the next one.

Myspace is easy, fun, and effective for meeting women. Try it, instead of wasting time on a paid dating site. You’ll be surprised at the results!
