Hide behind the submarine. Tackle and hogtie them as they come by.
Hang around and join in discussion on topics of your choice. I’m sure you’ll start noticing the same people with the interesting or similar answers or questions you enjoy. Then I’m sure you figure it out there. :)
Making friends is really the same everywhere, with very small variations. It all comes down to understanding what it means to connect with another human being. That’s about mutual appreciation, and it’s particularly about a kind of precise appreciation, in which the things you appreciate about the other represent an accurate and detailed recognition of their finer qualities. So a false friendship is one that is based on something junkier than that… i.e. “I’ll scratch your back if you scratch mine”, or “we flatter each other so we won’t be lonely”, or “we have illusions about who the other is”, etc.
A true friendship finds its entrance when you recognize something unique and worthy about another person, and express that in some way. When people feel known, a particular lamp goes off on their dashboard—they think “wow, somebody understood me!”, and they start to listen to you differently. That’s just the beginning, but it’s often enough to where the rest becomes obvious.
Be, or pretend to be, politically liberal.
Like attracts like, usually. Locke and load.
i posted a nude picture of myself and a lot of girls and even some of the guys like uberbatman and astrochuck started sending me messages, so yeah, that works
Be awesome. Worked for me :)
Try to participate as actively as you can in the site and maybe even the chat… get to know your fellow Jellies and let them get to know you. The rest takes care of itself.
Cookies. Lots of cookies.
I haven’t, really. So the secret might be to avoid being like @laureth. :)
