You guys can laugh and flame away, but here is my lstory and suggestion. I was in the military, and didn't wana meet girls from NC, i wanted to line up some possible women back in NY. So i tried match.com (sucked, ugly fatties) yahoolove (sucked, no turnover, same uglie fatties) and then while goofing on hotornot.com, i saw that you could pay 5 bucks and e-mail the girls, When i was deployed, i had 2 girls back home that were my MWR program on leave. Then when i got home for good i met a really sweet girl on there, have been dating for 2, and are getting married in a year. Now it might sound geeky, but we as men have certian look that we go for. When your in a bar, you look for chicks with that look. Why not skip the drinks and other BS and just get there number and talk to em. Also, "professional" women don't hang out in bars too much. They spend time alone at home, and on a lonley friday night they jump on these sites, be it myspace, yahoo, match............ and see if they can get a man. You go be that man. :)
Ps look out for outdated pictures, and look at there arms, fat arms increast the online FP (Fattie potential) and are a clue in that that chick likes the entire pizza and chicken wings.
