Why You Can't Approach Women Online With Cheap Lines

From Chris Tyler,

If you have any female friends who have accounts on social networking sites like Facebook or on any one of the many dating sites that are available online, then I'm sure you've probably heard some pretty funny stories about the lengths some men go to in order to try and get a hook up or a date.

And if they have pictures up and allow comments, then I'm sure you have seen that almost every guy who makes a comment pretty much says the same thing. If that is the way that you approach online dating and you expect to get some pretty phenomenal results, you are probably going to be pretty disappointed.

You can't use cheap lines and generic compliments if you are going to do well attracting women online. You shouldn't even be trying that out in real life, but that's another story.

Why can't you approach women online with a cheap line?

Because they have time to sit back and take it in without anything else guiding their feelings and their thoughts. After all, it is just words on a screen. So, while you may be able to make a woman laugh using your body language or facial expressions delivering a cheap line in a club, you don't really have that luxury when you are just putting words up on a screen.

One of the most important things that any guy can do in any situation where he wants to make a good impression on a woman and get a date out of it, is to stand out in some way. Do yourself a favor sometime and go to the profile of one of the prettiest women you know and take a look at what most guys leave as a comment on their pictures. It should be pretty clear that almost every guy is saying the same thing and hoping that it makes them stand out in some way.

Of course, it doesn't.

You can't approach a woman online with a cheap line because you want to be a little more creative than most. Before you do that, though, you also want to gain a little rapport with her. So, instead of doing the generic compliment or the cheap line... think of something creative or humorous to break the ice with her. Get her talking back and forth so that it's not just you sending her compliment after compliment.

Once you have a decent amount of rapport going with her, once you have made her laugh a little, then you can send her a compliment. By doing it that way, it will take on a different meaning. Instead of being just another bloke with a comment like, "Wow you look good," you will be a guy who she wants to hear a compliment from and it will mean more. Just don't over do it at that point.
