getting a Myspace. I found a profile of this single guy who lives in my city.
We're *really* compatible & he has a lot of info on his pg. upon which to base that deduction.
I'm interested in getting to know him/chat but I'm shy. Sure, it's random, it's a gamble, but so is meeting any random person in any random place offline (such as a club).
I've never msged any1 like this b4 & I don't wanna seem easy/stalkerish. I've been told by guy friends that guys don't like girls who persue them unless they're drop dead gorgeous; honestly, I'm cute but I'm just average.
If a pic of me and some interests is all he has to base his decision on, he might just think I'm a stalker or easy and won't give me the time of day or seriously consider getting to know me/just be interested in sleeping w/ me.
I don't have low self-esteem, it's just that a friend of mine tried the whole msging random boy thing and it didn't work.
What should I do? Any myspace success stories out there?

I don't *know* him but a friend of mine *knows* he goes to her college.
It's not like a 40 yr old posing as a 21yr old, he is really who he says he is but I have no way of getting to know him besides just msging him...do I?
any ideas?

Go ahead and give it a try. Guys do like women who pursue them - even if they're not drop-dead gorgeous, it's still good for the ego. I'd send the message - and leave it as messages for a little while. That will give him time to get to know the real you - and for you to do the same. He may not seem so great by that point. Keeping it at chatting for a while won't make him think you're easy, or a stalker. And if he's a liar, you can usually catch the lie fairly easily - liars always eventually forget what they've told you in the past, and end up contradicting themselves.
If all is still good after a while, go ahead and meet. I met my wife online - we both used match.com - and we've been very happy ever since, so the online thing can work.

My friend met her bf off of myspace. They are totally in love and plan on moving in together lol!
I dont think it has anything to do with meeting of the internet, just matters who the people are yah know.
But if you feel a connection with him, then check it out to see what happens. You dont know when or where you will find Mr. RIght so you gotta keep your options open!!
Good luck, its not always a failure!

ok no myspace experience but i've got old school knowledge. i have taken risks like that. just take it slow. don't rush because you need to be very careful. people are not all what they are cracked up to be. let him make the move if he wants topursue youand keep it public for awhile. no private stuff and don't let your guard down around him until you get to know him. if he want you more than just myspace let him go for. just be careful!

You could be setting yourself up for Mr. Totally Wrong Jerky-Turkey or Mr. Rapist. Anyone could say anything on MYSPACE- that doesn't mean it's true. Be Very Careful.
