First for those that don’t know what the Lorenzo Von Matterhorn is…watch this before reading any further.
Ok now, I’m not suggesting making up a fake name, or building fake websites about a fake life or anything like that but the clip is accurate in as much as that if you manage to spark attraction. At some point, maybe not right then and there but perhaps later that night…maybe when she’s home alone or hanging with her girlfriends a good number of women WILL google you. I work with 20 women and with the exception of the single ones they’ve all done it to find info on some guy they’re possibly interested in.
So…do it, google your own name do seperate searches for nicknames you may use irl and on blogs or whatnot. If some hits come up, try to look at them through the eyes of a woman you just met. Are they conveying attractive traits? Are they things that make you seem interesting or fun? Or are there any things that might be embarrassing or unattractive? A whiney bitch sounding facebook update, a blog entry about feeling pathetic and lonely etc. Delete that shit right quick, clean up your online footprint same as you would make sure you were clean shaven and wearing clean clothes before going out.
OK Now what DO you want to do? Well the fact is having an online footprint can wind up doing a good amount of work for you. In terms of effect it’s almost like a comfort building technique that works when you’re not near the girl. Attraction is already there or she wouldn’t have bothered looking you up.
Facebook and Myspace. These you can probably give to the girl during the introduction/attraction stage, if not then you should have your real name as your screen name so that it comes up on google when she inevitably searches you. Now as for what should be on there, the girl searching you is probably not going to read every last detail about the 500 bands you have in your like or the 100 greatest movies on your list of faves…5-7 likes in each category is appropriate. Leave political and religious stuff blank unless these are important issues to you. Some people don’t want to bother starting something with someone who’s worldview is drastically different from their own and in many ways that’s smart…but it could also limit your pool that you can choose from.
Have lots of pics of you in fun and social situations. If you have a picture where you’re pointing the camera at yourself or at the bathroom mirror…lose it, it screams “I can’t even find a real life friend to hold the damn cameraphone”. Give the pics captions that help make the pics into attraction spikes. A pic with you and a nameless guy is just that, throw in “Me and my younger brother hanging out, I’d do anything for that kid” and now it’s a protector of loved ones attraction switch. Likewise consider the attraction switches when filling out “about me” info or making blog entries/facebook notes
Ok so now that FB and Myspace basics are covered. What else would you want her to see about you when she’s cyber stalking you after meeting you? There are tons of forums and social networking sites based of specialized interests that you could arrange to pop up when she searches you. Just keep in mind this only works if you use your real name or the same name you gave her so make sure the sites are not only sites that convey traits about you and your life that are interesting or attractive but sites you’re comfortable using your real name on.
If you work out and you want her to know it without sounding like you’re bragging, Bodybuilding.com has a “bodyspace” social network where you can post a profile including fitness oriented goals and accomplishments.
Think of things about your life that would be interesting, then find either a forum or social network based on it. You can use Google for this, just type (your interest)+ forums or social network.
So now you intro, build attraction, show attraction, number close, give up your myspace/facebook info and then leave with some potential. Now she has time later to look up your name and see.
A youtube video of you practicing a musical instrument or performing a song in front of people. (Rockstar fantasy)
A page where you’re recruiting teammates and/or sponsors for a cross country event you’re running to raise money for charity. (Leadership and awww nice guy factor)
A blog entry where you talk about how important financial security is and how you’ve been following a budget as well as your future career ambitions and your plans to achieve them. (smart and sensible, good ltr potential)
A facebook wall with several friends of yours leaving comments about how much fun last weekend was and asking what you have planned for the coming weekend as though your plans will influence theirs. (fun and leader of their social circle)
A review on a wine connoisseur site of several wines you tasted during your last winery tour (sophisticated)
Flickr pics of your skydiving or white water rafting trip (fun, exciting and daring.
Profiles on a bodybuilding or MMA social networking site(macho factor) etc etc etc.
An easy way to convey the qualities you want to convey without the boring job interview questions (so what are your hobbies?) Or sounding like you’re bragging (well you know…I work out and have a black belt) the info wasn’t volunteered and as far as she knows, you don’t know she’s looking you up. This is gold for dealing with morning after flaking. See for a lot of guys building attraction is actually pretty easy, you get started talking and you’re having fun. You’re at the club, the music is loud, the lights are flashing, drinks flow like it’s tax deductible and her buying temperature goes through the roof. So you wind up scoring a makeout session and a number exchange but no further than that. But the girl doesn’t return your calls. Well that’s because she’s not in the same headspace she was when your tongue was down her throat. Now she’s back to the mundane real world and doesn’t want to feel like the slut that makes out with any old guy. You built attraction, but not value. However now, when you call and she sees your name on her caller ID, she won’t answer, but will google your name (its truly scary how many do this) and see all these interesting tidbits about you and your life that humility kept you from talking about the night before and you are no longer…“that cute guy I got drunk and made out with at the club” now you’ve become “that awesome guy I met at the club who seems to have real boyfriend potential”
You may now begin discourse.
