I'm new to this whole on line dating thing. Its been a 2 weeks and i'm getting very little response. I feel like a highschool kid just figuring out how to talk to women all over again - it seems like the rules of attraction are very different in this realm. I'm having a very difficult time getting anyone to communicate openly with me. It dosen't help that its labled fast track and insinuates that i'm a creep for even proposing it. Its very likely that i'm not representing myself well. Can I get somefeedback on my profile? Any advice?

DON'T USE FAST TRACK!

If you like some of your matches send short questions.

EH is a numbers game. You have to just keep trying to communicate and see who responds. It is frustrating that EH doesn't have a warehouse of Stepford Wives just waiting to roll out, but that's the reality of the situation.

The reality for the vast majority of men is that it's got to be made an extreme numbers game for online dating to work.

Me personally it's less than 5% chance of getting that first date - so I'll need to contact at least 20; this naturally implies a whole heckuva lot of non-responses.

Use any track you like.

Communicate openly, disregard insinuations, and Hope for the same in return.

Good luck!
