The first email: Rules of Engagement.

As a client and expert in the online dating field, I often cringe at the site of some of the introductory e-mails I receive from guys. Sometimes, I am pleasantly surprised. Some true life examples are below:

"Hi,  I saw your profile and thought I'd drop a note to say hello.  I would like to know more about you. Would you like to talk sometime?"  

"OMG, your pics are killin me! ;)"

"So what's your idea of a good first date? Ever attend a cooking class? Want to?"

"Hey, how are you? You are beautiul." (misspelling beautiful, come on!)

"You have amazing breasts.  Me likee!" (This one really did happen. I can't make this stuff up.)


So, you have to guess which emails received a response, which prospects will get a first date and which ones got ignored.
