AKA: Lit Ladies 101: A Guide on How To Survive Being Fresh Meat

Please post tips, suggestions, ideas and general observations that you would want a newbie to know
 
Know why you're here.
Keep yourself incognito at first. It helps with the sudden influx of PM's
Take it slow (slow in the Lit world is still faster than IRL)
 
Keep away from the what color panties and what are you wearing now threads unless you want random guys you have never chatted to posting comments or PM's asking for proof.
 
Don't avoid the other girls!

One of the first things some guys here told me was to avoid the other girls because they were all mean, gossipy bitches. Well... some of them are but the vast majority of us are nice and just look out for each other. Good luck!

That's awful. We're an awesome bunch of ladies.
 
It took me a long time to make girl friends and now they are the main reason I'm still here. Irony!

Me too. It took me a really long time. I’m still trying to get to know a few people here that I think are really interesting and fun..it just takes time.
 
Being open to saying hi, keeping things light (no pressure) and a bit of wit expressed helps. Letting your boundaries be known, but you decide what your comfort levels are. Don't be so quick to dismiss someone on sight. They may surprise you with their kindness.

If you're here strictly for male attention, your intentions are clearly seen in your posts. You may be regarded based on how you post or treat another person. Males and females.
 
Hell I just jumped in feet first, like 3 weeks ago and I am like a guru lmao... Have fun! Everyone has been super nice and fun so far. Don't get overwhelmed by your inbox it fills up quickly but you don't have to answer everyone... like you open it and it says hey you wanna suck my dick... it's ok not to answer that... I mean unless you want to then by all mean do you. I have met alot of cool people in the last few weeks... I watched nervously for months before posting... I shouldn't have, it's not as intimidating as it looks.

Totally, totally. I really wish something like this had been around when I first got on here

I've seen a couple newbies post something like this, that's why i started it.

Ps. It's also the first time i started a thread. I was a little nervous. Had to ask for advice.

Well thank you, I'm glad you did. Important things to keep in mind
 
I think a good principle for either gender: You don’t have to share all about yourself, but you share should be true to what you are.

Listen to this lady, for one thing! She's very wise and very awesome!

And if you're just here for the attention, that's cool. But please, don't complain about it when you get it....."oh my my my, why did I get all these dick pics and indecent proposals??? *swoon*" The rest of us see right through that garbage. :rolleyes:
 
Give yourself permission to take breaks, reassess, and adjust your approach here, and give yourself permission to call it a day if and when the bad outweighs the good.
 
Have fun
Trust your instincts
Be polite


Or a more cynical approach is the old saying: Believe nothing of what you hear, and only half of what you see.

:rose:
