Sylvia, 37, Kingsville, Texas
"Am I your type?" It's funny when they send that to me and there's no photo with their profile. Hmmm. The best one so far is "Watch out for the Naval Pilots in Kingsville, they are trouble." It worked. As a matter of fact, I'm seeing him at the present time. Ha-ha! |

The best pickup line I received was, "Are you famous?" That was funny. It made my day. And the person who said that to me...we are still very good friends to this day. It broke the ice. I loved it. I mean who wouldn't want to be famous! |

I think the best to date was a man in Arizona who wrote that he had done a specific "perfect girl" search and my profile had been his result. He casually mentioned that I was the perfect girl and he would like to marry me. We dated for about two months. The fantasy was better than reality. |

"Please bite!!!" You would have to look at my profile heading to get that one. |

I remember one response from a guy who started off with "I hope you're not a cop, 'cause your pic and profile were worth me breaking my restraining order over!" He didn't get a date, but did get a point for creativity! |

I always thought that the Yahoo!'s "Did it hurt falling from heaven?" Icebreaker was pretty clever. |

I can't give away my secrets and I've yet to receive anything really interesting though I do receive lots of incredibly nice compliments from a lot of great guys. |

This was a good one..."I live a million miles from you but I wanted to let you know you have the most animated smile in the world! I sometimes just look at your picture to bring a smile to my face when I am having a rough day. Thanks for the smile." |
