happythoughts 0 #1 January 27, 2005 ...as desparation rears its head. Whenever a new woman posts her pic for the first time, how long does it take for the stalkers to light it up. 30 minutes? an hour? Does it all go to the thread or does she get 20 PMs? 5 PMs in the first hour? 20 in the first day? Guys don't know what goes on at the receiving end. Figured I'd ask the ladies... "Hi, I just started skydiving after I dumped my b/f..." Moooo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skymama 37 #3 January 27, 2005 I thought the guys were really nice when I first showed up at my dz, then someone clued me in that they were just hoping to get laid. She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Girlfalldown 0 #4 January 27, 2005 I've actually done tests here. When I have an avatar that's just a pic of something like what I have now I rarely get replies or PMs. When I put a photo up of me looking like I'm a girl though... -------------- (Do not, I repeat DO NOT, take my posts seriously.)

happythoughts 0 #5 January 27, 2005 QuoteI thought the guys were really nice when I first showed up at my dz, then someone clued me in that they were just hoping to get laid. Not mutually exclusive categories. The guys who are really nice are a subset of the overall guy-category of those wishing to get some. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
metalslug 36 #6 January 27, 2005 I got one PM when I changed my avatar, but I think it's silly to cry 'crush' or 'stalker'. Maybe folks are just being nice. Considering another thread not long ago that suggested that some women here deliberately post their most flattering pictures, it is even possible that some of them want to be complimented.

Vallerina 2 #7 January 27, 2005 I rarely get pms! I think I argue too much... There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wmw999 2,479 #8 January 27, 2005 I pretty much get PMs when I send PMs. And I don't think I've ever been propositioned over my avatar. Of course, there is that 4-digit D license that says "old enough to be your mom" Wendy W.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
windcatcher 0 #9 January 27, 2005 wow, you're avatar is cute man, PM's being sent... actually, most people's avatars having nothing to do with me sending them a PM, it's usually just my curiousity about something. As a matter of fact, I think piis, Clownburner, and a few other guys' pics are yummmmmmmmmmmy. Mother to the cutest little thing in the world...

Brains 2 #11 January 27, 2005 Hmmm, i wonder if changing my avatar would result in any pm's. Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

happythoughts 0 #14 January 27, 2005 QuoteI rarely get pms! I think I argue too much... PMs or pms? People rarely want anyones opinion, they just want you to hear theirs and agree. It's an ego thing. Guys have terribly fragile egos. You should act adoringly and tell them how smart they are. Then you'd get attention from guys with tiny balls. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SarahC07 0 #15 January 27, 2005 Don't mean to sound stuck up or anything... but, I got a couple PM's before I even had a pic posted... It really is ridiculous... people talk.... and then they get drunk (really drunk) and drunk dial you ... and then admit to all the talking they do (when you're not around) and to people you don't even know.... THUS resulting in PM's from random guys here on dz.com.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If they are not respecting your privacy, be careful/selective with who you give your phone number to and block annoying/scary strangers from PMing you, again. I don't have a problem with people harrassing me because I am harsh that way. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SarahC07 0 #20 January 27, 2005 He got my phone number from someone other than me ... I still don't know how he got it... he does jump at my dz... and some people there have it... so *shrugs*....

happythoughts 0 #22 January 27, 2005 Quote and then admit to all the talking they do (when you're not around) and to people you don't even know.... Actually, I think that is the way it should work. References are not a bad idea. Most of the time, it seems like people meet other people through two avenues. References of friends or common interests. If two people go bowling a lot, they probably have many other common elements in their life. They've got a lot of things in common already, an easy fit. A lot of people meet through common friends. Group social events like parties or going to movies. People ask friends about people that they are interested in. It is good to know stuff up front.
