Amber I could not give you a LM as to where to meet guys as i said my wonderfil man lived next door.
You talk about not wanting to attract "jerks" well my wonderful man and i started out not being to friendly to each other in fact we use to push each others buttons. That was just over 2 yrs ago now, so dont write off the jerkss

Annabel I did not give you any LM because you can meet great guys all over SL as i said i met mine next door.
As for your comment about avoiding "jerks" well my wonderful man and i did not start out as friends in fact we got on each others nerves and would push each others buttons all the time. That was over 2 yrs ago now and we are still going strong. So my advice dont rule out the " jerks.

Well, you DID ask for advice: So, you do sound ungrateful. If you don't mean to, consider learning how to communicate. Consider developing a little empathy. Consider being less of an asshat and you'll be a lot more likely to find a good guy.
Did the possibility occur to you that this is a terribly insulting thing to say? No? Then get a clue.

I'd wish you luck, but I have better things to do.

That's all I have to say on this.


QFT...Bravo Lear!

2) How can I attract the nice guys while scaring off the idiots.
Aren't we all idiots at one time or another?

Its almost cocktail hour now so I have to run but thank you all for your views. I must say I find it very amusing that noone has suggested even one specific location where I might find nice guys. :p



Define "nice" please.

BTW the above OP post rules her out on The Pep Scale due to:

"Its"

missing commas

and the ever irritating noone [sic]

;-)

Stop looking. You are a woman, they need to find you, not the other way round. The more desparate you behave, the less attractive you are.


QFT!

Just remembered a "worst" line: Some guy IM'd me at one of the well-known Freebie Stores with probably "Hi." (See, if I'd taken the OP's advice, I could have saved some time. OTOH, I wouldn't have this "worst line" to contribute.

So I said hi...he said "I'm 20 and speak Spanish."

I figured my response would scare him off: "I'm old enough to be your mother and speak English."

Noooooooooo

His next IM: "I LOVE older women, they're more experimented." (I sure hope he meant "experienced" - I mean...what if it's really true and there *are* aliens that creep in at night while one is sleeping and run experiments on humans? :eek: Ok, I've listened to way too much Art Bell...anyway on with the story....)

I decided to just not answer at that point but didn't mute him and he kept up a running commentary on wanting to learn English...I could teach him English...a more "experimented" woman teaching him English was his dream...well you get the idea.

Yanno, maybe muting someone when they begin with "Hi" isn't such a bad idea. ;)

I've heard that at every single nice guy on Second Life spends at least one day at Orientation Island.

Another woman thinking that she can change men eh?

Pep (Men find an easier way to change women; they just get a newer model)

PS Charming, nice idiots? You get what you deserve in life!




@PD-Pep-Show

I am totally sure that you do not have any chance to have a real woman and you wont have any chance to get a new model either.

All you deserve is a huge and heavy very old meteor

I have come to the conclusion that what the OP seeks as nice, is not the same as what I would define as nice.
For one, she ruled out some of the nicest guys in SL, the ones right here on these forums, for two, she has not even described what her idea of nice is.

Her idea and my idea and another person's idea of nice may all be different.

I for one, will not recommend any places that I know that nice guys hang out at, because after seeing the attitude of the OP, I would not want to subject any nice guys to that.

To the OP, maybe if you start to describe what you consider "nice" it will help for those who wish to give you suggestions of where to go to find those "nice" guys.

(any nice guy would run the other way though, as soon as he saw that attitude)

OK my question is in three parts like on Blind Date.

1) Where do I go in sl to find nice guys with good conversation. I mean straight men that don't think they are god's gift and don't talk as if they are texting. I have tried Sweethearts and Phats because I thought that the odds would be better on finding a diamond in a pile of rocks in a big place but that was a fail.

2) How can I attract the nice guys while scaring off the idiots. Is there any magic I can do with my profile.

3) Less seriously what are the best and worst chat lines you have heard. Don't bother about hi, A/S/L and wanna.... as I have heard them already.


1) No way to know they are even male let alone straight males IRL. As for good conversation you get as good as you give usually. Stay away from lame dance halls where guys go to get SLaid.

2) Shakespeare quotes? Links to the Triple Nine Society website?

3) You pretty much named them - but since I don't reply to those I don't really get to hear more of it to give you any spicy quotes.

It isn't any easier meeting quality people in SL than it is in RL. The pool is just bigger.

You may have something there, but I've already said Annabel is too young for me. :p

Maybe if I keep mentioning my "wife", and lobbing insults, I can convince people that I don't have self-esteem issues, and that I am not compensating for it by behaving like a priggish twat on a support forum.

I guess I'd better start my chores, or mom may yell (from the top of the basement stairs) at me a bit more. Small price to pay though, because pretending to be something I am not on the internet is a very important part of my life. In fact, it is my life.

Oh, you'll never drag me down, plebes. I am far too perfect and brilliant.

Just ask my "wife" (mom) as she gets me a scotch (Mountain Dew Code Red).

OK first mistake is that youre desperate enough that you actually think SL is a place to meet nice guys. I suggest you get out of your chair and go out of your actual house and then you might find one.
As far as scaring them off have you tried fart gestures I find they always work well. Theres also a function called mute if you want to ignore people :)

There are a lot of nice people in Second Life.

Its probably not very productive to use SL as a 3D eharmony RL Love connection... Although that works for some.

But if you are looking for people online to chat with / play 3D house with / virtually cuddle /whatever, there are worse places to meet them.

@JamesMichael the self-described nice guy Long gone? I just have better things to do than post much here. Don't take the brush off too personally. I have revealed more here than I would in sl so I would have said no thanks to anyone from the forums. Selfpraise is no recommendation by the way. :p

@Maureen Two thumbs is how you text. Probably not your style. Thanks for suggesting Toby's. That's the second specific place anyone has mentioned so far. I've been to the Forum Cartel Hangout and most of the time there was noone there and when there was it was ladies.:(

@Soen It sounds as if you have been on that helterskelter you decribe. I think I can seperate fantasy and reality though. I am not in love with James Bond or Daniel Craig.

@Sony Be sure and let us know when you find a nice girl who finds your English quaint. If you read what I asked for it was places where men were not a pimp.

@Mickey and others I don't want to sound ungrateful at your thoughts but most of them read like I had rung up directory enquiries for the number of the nearest Mcdonalds and got a half hour recorded lecture on healthy eating instead. Apart from someone who sent me a few landmarks of pickup places inworld I have only had three definite suggestions of places and mostly criticism of my profile and only a few concrete suggestions on what I should put in it. If any nice but unimaginative men have been reading this they won't have learned much about chat lines either.

Perhaps you will all be pleased to hear that I found a couple of possibles at the pickup places so thank you Pserendipity for those. I went out on a date with one of them last night although he crashed just as it was getting intresting so I have something to look forward to next week. I will look in here anyway to see if anyone has any more ideas as a girl can never have enough men lined up.




@Annabel ;

Even you are writing in your own mothers language your text is filled with a lots of misspellings, so why blame those who are from other countries willing to communicate in a foreign language. How many languages do you speak "fluently"? English isn't your mothers language, is it?


Pserendipity Daniels [aka Mister Pep-Show] & Annabel Lectar must be the same person. Time to ban both for being such a pain in the ass for almost everybody here in the forum.

Even the closest friend of Pserendipity Daniels (Honeybear) complains about his "changes" in a public statement here on the forum.
