Stop Getting Deleted:  Double Agent

Sick of the bar-hopping ritual of acquiring a target, chatting up her friends, and thinking of clever banter only to be kicked to the curb again?

Try online dating instead. You don't have to think on your feet. You don't have to buy her friends drinks. You don't even have to get dressed. Plus, over 85% of women admit they've tried online dating.

But there are some basic rules to adhere to. Here's the inside intelligence to keep you from getting deleted before you get the date.

You must post a photo.
Something clear enough so she can pick you out of a line-up. An overwhelming majority of women said they'd open a profile solely on the basis of an attractive picture.

Do not pose with…
Your Mercedes, ex-girlfriend or the Hooters girls you met in Miami. We are not impressed.

Compliment us on something specific.
And we don't mean breasts. Tell us you love that we read the Economist or that we have a great smile. Women want to feel chosen — this is not a spampaign.

You have spell check.
Use it. No woman wants to go out with some guy too lazy to proofread. To us, bad grammar and sloppy spelling translates to a life of dirty socks on the floor.

Hold off on the Penthouse prose.
We know you want sex, but subtlety is key. Two words: courtship and seduction — tape them to your monitor.

Be patient.
Getting an email saying, "Why haven't you written back yet?" only screams desperate freak. Don't be that guy. If we're interested, we'll let you know.

Do not write us multiple times.
This is called e-stalking. Just stop.

What are you waiting for?
Here are some websites filled with more women than any happy hour in the country, each of them waiting with open in-boxes.
