Trying to meet girls on MySpace or Facebook is not as difficult as many people would have you believe.
In the old days of ICQ and Yahoo Messenger people were meeting each other all the time.
In fact, I have a friend who met a woman and married her, thanks to ICQ.
How did he do it, and how are his lesson applicable to Facebook or MySpace? First, he did not have overly high expectations.
He did not set out to meet his wife on the internet, he simply enjoyed meeting the girls that he did meet.
He enjoyed meeting the guys that he met as well, he was a just a friendly guy who liked to chat and meet people.
Next, he did not pretend to be anything he was not.
He knew that if a long-term relationship were to present itself, he did not want to be caught in a lie.
It was important to him that women knew upfront his age, physical stature, education, income and lifestyle.
He prepared and treated ICQ as a hobby.
In other words, when took time to put a picture of himself, a detailed description of himself and a detailed description of the type of person that he wanted to chat with.
So if you are on MySpace for instance and you are looking to meet a woman, take the time to make sure that all your ducks are in a row.
Ensure that you have an accurate photograph.
It can, of course, be a flattering one, just make sure that it is of you and it is up to date.
He treated it like his meeting place.
You would not go out to a bar without dressing nice and brushing your teeth or taking a shower.
So would he not go on to ICQ without looking and being his best either.
As I cruise the internet, looking for peoples input in this matter, I read the words "creepy" and "stalker" a lot, but it does not have to be that way.
If you are not creepy, and not a stalker then you will not be perceived as one.
