Playing Games/Frumster

I am a very forward person. When I see something or someone that I want I go for it. Since I am still single I guess it isn't the best approach. A friend of mine recently recommended a "self help" book to me. I've been reading it and am amazed at how ignorant I am. So basically if I "play the game" I'll get everything I want..okay.

Frumster has been a hopping place lately, no sooner do I sign on then I am inundated with "IMs", I try to ignore them but they are blocking my view of the email I'm typing! If you don't answer the IM you get an email that says "Missed Im Message" and the guy will usually write something profound, such as "hi". Now don't get me wrong I am always flattered when someone wants to speak to me, and they will always get a response, and it won't even be the generic one! But guys, if you want to catch my attention, you really should write more than one word!

I also wonder how many of the men even read my profile before they email/Im me? Why would someone who lists himself as Chassidish or Yeshivish contact me? From my profile it's pretty obvious that I'm towards the left. If I met a Chassidic/Yeshivish guy in person and we hit it off that would be another story, but on Frumster, no.

Last but not least with regards to Frumster, I am not on there to get laid. I am very flattered that younger guys find me attractive but seriously, if I just wanted to "get some" I would go to an older man, at least he knows what to do!

I am not saying all, but yes I have been approached by quite a few that were just interested in that.

When I figure it out I'll let you know - I haven't finished the book yet. I'm only allowing myself a few pages at a time I don't want to overload myself on the techniques :)
