Lessons From G4M (Pamphlet Number Two)

kurapik: kelan tayo meet? kakayanin ko na titi mo

darkstar: not interested dude.
kurapik: magaling naman ako chumupa ah (I would have answered. "Mas magaling ako sayo parekoy," but to avoid making things more intricate...)
darkstar: pasensya na po. sana nagbabasa ka ng profile kasi hindi naman ako pang sex eh.
kurapik: oo nga pala di pala ikaw un.. wrong send.hehe sowee...

When will they ever learn?

Before, I get pissed off whenever I would send a friendly private message (peksman!) to a guy that interest me only to be ignored in the end. It makes me less of a person, really. But now that I'm getting more views and messages (which tend to turn me off sometimes) in that website, I'm beginning to get the drift as to why some guys prefer to ignore guys who appear quite desperate for attention in G4M.

Take for example one time, A stocky guy sent me a message asking for a hook-up three times in just one week. Fuck ko daw siya sabi niya. Three times I ignored his message because I found his desperation too pathetic. Even if I'm single, I wouldn't take his offer.

As a rule, never get too aggressive to a guy, especially if he appears more physically superior to you. Always remember that gym buff, masculine guys (who prefer posting their chest, abs and torso instead of a regular face pic) won't stoop down to the level of being the one to ask favors. At the same time, straight acting homos would prefer the indirect approach when seeking a hook up. That leaves the effems (mostly) and the kids (mostly rin) to the job of seeking partners, especially if they belong to the lower heirarchy of PLUs in the website.

Examples of a good and a bad opening line:

Gymgoer guy to a buff guy: "Dude ganda naman ng chest mo, gaano mo katagal dinevelop yan?" (chances are, the buff guy would be flattered. Obviously, the message conveyed a friendly tone, despite having some possible hidden strings behind the senders motive.)

Regular guy to another regular guy: "Nice profile men! I share your sentiments." (another good approach. take note, both guys should have equal looks, or at least compliments what both guys are looking for. If one appears physically inferior, the lower the chances of recieving a reply)

A guy with an effem-looking/lanky pic to a regular naked guy: "Sexy naman poh ng body mo. Care for SEB here's my number 0917 xxxx, and ym purpleazureemeraldsky@yahoo.com" (ultimate turn off dude, especially if the regular naked guy prefers discreet average guys. Never give your personal details in your opening message) Another variety would be something like this: "You make me horny bro. Password pls." (You're too fast. Make sure you have an equally interesting pic to match his.)

Naked regular guy to another naked regular guy no face pics included: "Pare san ang area mo? Astig ng profile mo/Trip kita." (straight to the point, without the mention of any direct, aggressive sexual motive whatsoever. Based on experience, many masculine guys talk this way in G4M)

Two goody-goody guys discovering that they found the same interest in one of the forums: "Ei! Naglalaro ka rin pala ng DOTA/Red Alert/Need For Speed/ etc. etc. Minsan one on one tayo." (same interest will almost always lead to a good conversation. It depends however where would the conversation lead to.) or "Ay gusto mo rin pala si Mariah at si Madonna! Soundtripping tayo dito sa bahay minsan"

I really don't know how other people conduct their business in G4M. But based from my two profiles - one real one and one alterprofile using a very hot guy's pic, I get an idea as to how guys communicate to one another. If there are four basic important lessons a PLU must always remember when establishing contacts with other guys in that website, these are;

1. A guy must read a person's profile - status, sexual preference, and other important notes no matter how long or dramatic or psychotic the profile may be.

2. If a guy could not stand up with his looks, a good, friendly and positive attitude would do.

3. If you really want to meet serious and friendly guys, avoid the sexual forums at all cost.

4. There is such a rule that says... "pumantay ka sa katapat mo." If you think he is a god, it would be wise to resort to a demi-god instead.

Too bad, the guy who sent me the message above would never get to read this little entry. Badtrip kasi eh, instead of just quietly boywatching some guys in that website, ganun pa ang marerecieve ko. I wonder, is he able to succeed in hooking up with guys at all? Anyhow, I would continue observing the habits and attitudes of guys over there. At least, I get to see first hand - even if its just a little piece of the action, of how the art of hooking up with a stranger begins.
