It sucks, don't do it. Focus on yourself and if someone is interested, they'll come to you.
Also make them watch Craigslist Killers2 -

I'm not saying you should do this, but if it were me, I'd start a Chit Chat thread entitled: I'm Looking For a Boyfriend Here. Serious Inquiries Only.
In the body of the thread post your age, measurements, general location (not specific), height and weight. Post your photo posed and dressed modestly.
Right off the bat, in the first public message of the thread say what you WON'T do i.e. won't lie down with you until I get a ring and a wedding date, won't text more than 5x a day, won't skip church to get drunk at brunch with you, won't do any naked Skyping, won't like it if you keep your phone locked and you're always on it, won't give away any of my 7 cats, won't like it if you tell me the day before the wedding you have three kids from 3 different ladies I never knew about, etc.
Before you PM or kik or instagram or snapchat or facebook ask the qualifying questions on the open thread for all the Chit Chatters to see and opine on.
I.e. Do you still live with your mother, have you ever had a blister that appeared below the waist and above the knees, do you wear black nail polish and eye liner like men do in Los Angeles, have you ever had a restraining order taken out on you, did you ever accidently go to a gay bar and feel stunned and shocked but then went back because they had a piano sing along and you thought it was fun after all, do you watch reality TV and if so which shows, have you ever read a book made of paper in your free time and school doesn't count, what is the last grade you completed, did you ever win a trophy for a game or contest you lost, if we get married can we have separate beds but still be intimate occasionally on my schedule, list all your current and former prescribed medications for temporary and chronic conditions, list all your tattoos, where on the body they are located and what the significance is for each, same with piercings, etc.
Focusing right in and cutting to the chase in matters of dating and relating takes a lot of the stress and mystique out of it. Plus I've heard there are a lot of single men here from all over the world.
I just had my heartbroken by my best friend that I met on mfp 5 years ago and dated for 2 years. I think I'm going to skip flirting with anyone on mfp that might take me seriously from now on. LOL4 -
Maybe I should just stick with my two cats. They're cute. LOL6

Exactly! Practice the choke holds before actually doing them for the first time. Take the time to form and recite your safe words. Oklahoma can be a mouthful in a panic situation.0 -
Decide if you're lonely or just boring. If you're boring, stay lonely.2

I guess I'd tell her to get her hair done and nails did, then hoof it to the local bingo hall and hit on the first guy she sees with a crest on his blazer.0

WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE SAID FRIEND? WHAT DO YOU THINK THEY NEED TO KNOW ABOUT DATING AS AN ADULT?
First and most important advice would be to stay off of MFP.4 -
My other tip.
Take any of this with a lot of skepticism.
Because it's more like this.

But, if you must be on MFP, take nothing seriously and with a grain of salt.2 -

I think forums give a better chance to learn who a person is before you might decide to meet them. I'd say there's a few here I'd enjoy meeting in person just to say "Hi". Same as I have with other forums I've been on.
Dating apps, even the paid ones, never got much enjoyment out of. Seemed far too much work, with littl eor nothing in return.3
