alexlakeman Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 I just got the following email from a an attractive young lady, but I was floored when I read it; not sure if she's joking or serious, lol.. Like if I have a hidden agenda or too good to be true or?? LOL, she could've phrased it differently.. Ladies, what would cause you to send such an email as a first email? "Ok by your profile you seem to be a nice guy ,so what is your story?"
veggirl Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 I think you are reading too much into this? She isn't accusing you of having a secret agenda, she is asking you to tell her more about yourself
ChessPieceFace Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 Almost looks like a spam email. But it seems like she just isn't careful/good about choosing phrases to represent her thoughts. "So what is your story?" = "Tell me more about yourself?" with really poor phrasing.
Hules Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 I have gotten several messages like this from girls on OKC. I replied to the first few and then found that most of them had very little to say in return which to be honest, bored me silly (not to mention it was trying to draw blood from a rock, trying to get information out of them). So I don't even bother replying to messages like that now. Lacks any effort, doesn't even show they read your profile or anything (they may of just liked your picture). She could send that message to 100 different guys with little/no effort. To me its the girl equivalent of a guy spamming girls with "Yo wassup, you be hot we should hook up sometime!". Just for a bit of insight the girl I'm currently dating didn't have any photo's on her profile. She sought me out and wrote a lovely personalized message which obviously took some time and thought to construct and a link to some photo's of her. I was a bit hesitant because she had hidden her photo's but she wrote such a lovely message that I couldn't help but reply. Met her for the first time a few days ago after corresponding with her for about a week and a half and speaking briefly on the phone (she told me she was really shy on the phone and didn't feel comfortable, would rather talk to me in person. I thought this was really cute ). She was beautiful in person (much more so than the photo's she gave me didn't do her justice) around 5'6 - 5'7 (I'm 5'10) blonde hair, blue eyes, slender build. She is very intelligent (big plus in my books!), well spoken, polite. Somewhat shy but that doesn't bother me at all, speak about the right topics and her eyes light up and she has no problem talking Taking her out for dinner on Sunday and I have taken down my profile on OKC, I haven't felt this way about someone in quite a while The reason I mention this is, if a girl like her who openly admits she is very shy can build up the courage to contact me and with a proper message. I see no excuse why other girls can't do the same other than they are lazy/not really interested.
Andy_K Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 You reply with "Awesome, I've convinced you I'm a nice guy already! So when do we get the sexytime? :D"
oaks Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 "Ok by your profile you seem to be a nice guy ,so what is your story?" It sounds like it's half a step up from just adding you to her favourites as an invitation for you to look at her profile and get in touch.
GivenUp0083 Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 You reply with "Awesome, I've convinced you I'm a nice guy already! So when do we get the sexytime? :D" Oh my god! I laughed so hard at this
