Second Life Romance: Standard Flirtation Questions #1, Where are you from?When it comes to Second Life Romance and Flirting, there are several standard questions...and we all know what they mean: "Mr. Hunk-of-the-month" or "Miz Cute Hooties" is interested in you. They will pretend this is not so and if you were to ask them about it at this point they would vehemently deny it. But they ARE, trust me. ;). And why do they ask? Because they are fishing. Yes. Flirting--boys and girls--is a lot like the sport of fishing; with a rod and reel that is. I think we ALL know that the ladies do the reeling. You guys, ie the "rods" may cast the bait, but it is definitely the ladies who "reel" you in. The male casts out a "line" or a question, and hopes she takes "the bait." Then she reels you in. So what are these standard flirtation questions? There are several. I will list them and then cover the first one in this blog.
The Standard Flirtation Questions Are:Where are you from?How OLD are you? What do you like to do? Do you like what you see? (as in HER. I have Never heard of a guy asking this question.) Would you like to come over and see my new garden? (gal question) Would you like to come over and see my new home? (gal question) Would you like to come over and see my place? (guy question) Do ya wanna f***? (guy question...Booo Hissss! You flunk! Go back to the end of the line!)
Where Are You From?Such an innocuous question, right? No little one. This is a fundamental question in sl, because the answer determines whether this potential new friendship moves forward, or stops dead in it's tracks. Behind this innocent question lay two contradictory thoughts:"I hope he lives close enough to me so that we can date in RL." AND "I hope he lives far enough from me in RL that he will Never, Ever, Even DREAM About Coming To See Me." Sadly, it is often said that if a married person in RL wants to cheat, the safest way to do it is with another married person. And in Second Life ®, the safest way to "fool around" is to do it with someone who lives far, far away, preferably on the other side of the planet. Maybe even on Mars. That's where these crazy guys are supposed to be from anyway, right? That way, you won't wake up in RL one day to the sound of some dumb-ass male banging on your RL door and saying, "Surprise, It's Me!" Yeah. BIG surprise. For your husband for one. And for your kids for another. On the other hand, some folks are looking for someone who lives fairly close to them, at least within one or two time zones. I can personally attest to the wisdom of this. My very very first gf on SL was from Denmark. Ahhhh Saffy my sweet. She was so cute, and I loved her so. But alas Denmark was something like 6 hours ahead of me--I live in the Chicago area--and we could never seem to "hook up." Whenever I ran into her, she was about to log and vice versa. We would hastily try to find a place to snuggle together, but Saffy was always looking for the perfect pose ball to kiss on. So she would jump from ball to ball to ball to balll to BALL, SHEESH! By the time Saffy tried out 10 million different pose balls, our time would be up. Long distance relationships can be very hard. Soooo now, personally, when I do date--which is rarely because of my time constraints--I look for someone in the U.S. Most of the time. Unless she is A REALLLLLY hot babe. A man must have his priorities after all. ;) ********* --Marco ONLY IN SL...can we have this much crazy fun! :-) by Marcophoto Upshaw AKA: Mark E.
