Sometimes you are lonely, and you want to talk to people who might be interested in kissing you. Luckily, there are websites for that!

Here is one: VXCYp.jpg

And here is another: un0DS.jpg

Let's help one another in crafting profiles that reflect us at our best, so that we can find people who like us! Also let's talk about how we are doing in our quests for affection.

    Okay, so I've been exchanging messages with this girl. We're like four or five messages into it. I notice that she's changed her status from "single" to "seeing someone". She didn't say anything about it in her latest message. I asked her about it, but I did so clumsily. I am awaiting response.

    Tell me what is happening. Things are going on, but I am not connecting the dots. Assist me.

    you have messaged a girl four times and think you might be dating her

    No, no. I do not think I am dating her. I know I am not dating her. But if she's dating someone, shouldn't she be like "Hey, let's stop this, 'cause I found a dude, and I don't need to see if I like you anymore."

    that is assuming she only talks to people she is dating
    she could easily be looking for any kind of relationship

    Good point. If I'm understanding you correctly, you're saying that she wants to be my friend?

    I do know what to do if that is the case! :D

    Let's call that "the best-case scenario". I am not so full of myself that I think it is the most likely outcome, but I'm confident enough to acknowledge its possibility.

    But usually talking to people is a blast


    unless they are vapid and boring. Which actually doesn't happen all that often.

    The secret to getting women is to be that full of yourself 24 hours a day.
