I'm scaring them off left and right
So I finally decide to reply to this personal ad on Craigslist and when I do, he'd already removed it!
I knew it. Guys just don't want me! [Except for this one dude who won't stop messaging me, until Kasper got tired of the messages and blocked him for me. I'm sorry!]
Haha, anyhoo, might still be worth a shot, depending on why he removed his post in the first place. When I get bored, I read Craigslist (they don't update "best-of" as much as I'd like) and out of a gazillion m4w posts, the massive majority of them are trash. I can't stand spelling mistakes! As soon as I see one, I hit the back button right away. I know, I know, I have OCD when it comes to spelling, and I know I make mistakes myself (but only when I'm writing too fast or too sleepy!) Only one guy has ever tempted me to actually reply, and that was months ago, and I haven't found another since. So when I find he's posting again, eh, I figure what the heck, I'll harass him. But somehow he knew I read his post and took it off immediately... yep.

A lot of these people re-post the same ad after a while. Or you could try posting their ad in "Missed Connections" with a little follow-up. I was going to do that with an ad I managed to miss (twice, actually), but it turned out that was unnecessary.
That is a good point, but since I'm not desperate to hook up with anyone, I was like, "whatevers". But since I happen to see it months later, I figured I should just send a reply and see what happens.
Wait till you spend more time on Myspace and see what kinds of messages turn up there ;-)
haha, i only put up that pic on myspace cuz i don't plan on spending any time on that site and might as well fool everyone right? =)
