B/c you are afraid of rejection. It's normal but worth taking the risk, don't ya think?

Make sure your initial message is superb. Of course, with no pics, your chances are much lower from the start.

If you cant take the step on an internet, when you havent even got a picture up then I feel sorry for you. There is no risk involved, you could just come back on another profile and do it all again sheesh. Seen groundhog day???

Im sorry but shyness on the internet is particularly stupid

Two choices:

1. Never e-mail her and therefore guarantee you don't get to know her (planned failure).
2. E-mail her and give yourself a half chance that she may respond (possible success).

Your choice.

OP, Just do it already. It's the internet, no-one knows you or your address here.
You can be who you want to be. (But not good to do if your not that person in real life.)

The worse that can happen (and the normal is), you don't get a response and your
email gets deleted. You don't have to face the person. Now grow some balls and get
out there emailing!

If you do and say nothing , your answer is already NO! .. If you say something and give it a try then you have a 50/50 chance. You have to play if you want to win!!!

This is probably the easiest setting to approach a woman, practical free of reprisal, if your having trouble now.......................

You gotta play to win.

If you never buy the ticket you won't hit the lottery.

Faith without works is dead.

Just do it.

If you snooze you loooooooze.

When opportunity knocks, you gotta listen.


Ahhhhhh.. that's all I got for now, but I think you see what I'm saying. Dontcha?????

It's a profile (words) and a few pictures.. save the *awe* until after you meet in person. Anything less.. you're setting yourself up for disappointment. Send out a "feeler" email to see if she's interested ... although, I recommend you post a picture. Most won't entertain communicating without a visual..... very reasonable. Cheers ~

Without a picture, you're killing your chances of getting a response. Even with a great opener. Obviously you found her attractive from her photos. Let her at least get a look at you, or there will be zero chance she will have the same pleasure.

Get a photo and a profile review. Proofread your e-mail before sending it; use good grammar and punctuation. And don't come on too strong. If you tell her right upfront what you told us, she'll probably find it creepy.

Most importantly, after you have sent the message, delete it from your "sent" file, and do your best to forget all about her. Good luck!

Cuz you're a pansy and you're blaming her for being too hot. If you think she's out of your league, leave it alone. If you're interested, give it a shot. You won't know until you try.

The something that is stopping you is the fact that she doesn't except emails unless you have a PIC!!!
