[DivineClaud]

Ok hey. Divine here...current one week newbie here. Ok i've been posting on the personals and the am pics forum and no replies and about 40 million views. Its kinda..lets say..discouraging . I dunno what i'm doing wrong around here lol. I got a Role play doing pretty good but thats about it. Any tips from the post veterans? please help.

some people are just fickle i guess.

sorry to say i haven't posted to am-pics or personals so i can't give you any first-hand insights. try not to sweat it though... the last thing you want is a TRUCKLOAD of replies and have 90% of 'em from schmucks.

OK, I didn't read all of your posts, but I did notice some of the posts on Lit Personals in which you mention that you're a virgin. While that's definitely nothing to be ashamed of, you do seem to be feeling sorry for yourself. That attitude won't get you laid.

When you're creating a personal ad, you're trying to sell yourself, so to speak. Tell people a little about YOU--why are you worth getting to know? What are your hobbies/interests (other than internet porn and cybersex)? What are you looking for from a potential partner? Do you want an email/pic exchange? A fuck buddy? A relationship? Inquiring minds want to know. If you don't know what you want, how can you expect someone else to know?

I noticed you have a pic on your profile. That's always a plus.

The key is to make your profile stand out from all the others.

Hope you find what you're looking for!

hahaha oh god I just thought up the best analogy, if I sub-consciously stole it from someone sorry.....


claude,

Online personals: are like fishing off the jetty: you through out your line with some bait and wait for the right fish to swim past and bite. But not all fish like the same bait. If you want to catch different fish you need to use different bait.

Hooking up at clubs: is like spear fishing, you chase after the fish you want with the hopes of 'sticking her' with your spear (ah god that’s crude but I’m right yea?)


So all you have to do is change your bait or wait for the right fish to come along.

hahaha your tackle and rod seem to be in good condition so just wait for that first nibble If you lived closer and my sister was not such a prude im sure she would be all over a guy like you.


Happy hunting... err fishing

Every one seems to be posting to the same thread at the exact same time as me today!...

Eilan is right, write your personal add like you would a job application letter and resume. (that’s the bait )

Sound confident, even if inexperienced. State what you want and what you have to offer and do it on your own personaly way so prospective fishys can get a glimps as 'who you really are.'

I better get my ass back into a marketing class then lol. I guess i must be feeling sorry for myself and not realizing it lol. I dunno maybe its just my nerves playing with me. I would actually really like to meet someone in person..but i'm kinda scared to you know. I got no job, I live in my parents' house still(though i am the only on living in it at the moment for a little bit) and i honestly don't know how they would react if they ever found out lol and i'm still in High school til may...then i start college in july. >.>. Maybe i'm just cutting myself short or something you know. Maybe i just need a little boost in my confidence.

I completely understand being nervous about meeting somebody online. Been there, done that--I met my husband online and it's scary at first. Even though we'd emailed each other extensively, I was afraid that he was going to end up being an ax-murdering pervert. Fortunately, I was only partially right!

It's okay to be unsure of yourself--you're young and you're testing the waters. But sometimes, in matters of self-confidence, the fake-it-till-ya make-it approach works wonders. Hell, I still do that, and I'm 31!

Again, good luck!
