Opinions on my messaging game? The opener is one of 3 canned openers I use. There are just way too many attractive girls in Montreal to craft individual messages to, so it's easier to wait until they reciprocate interest. She wrote things in her profile about loving Rudy/The Notebook and reading Twilight "but don't judge me for it". My 2nd message is kinda long, but seems like she's keen so once I get a 2nd response I plan on asking her out to drinks with my next message.
Here's my profile if you care to see what I wrote in it that was provoking her responses:

Feel free to pass along a 5 star rating too so I can keep seeing hotties in my matches. Merci beaucoup!
I have to admit that this internet dating experience has at least been good for a few laughs. I have gotten some pretty crazy messages so far. I can only imagine what it must be like for you. Did you have any idea that there were this many strange people in Montréal?
I have some pretty amusing stories so far. How about you? Anything yet that made you laugh or are you just getting the standard, "Your really hot" messages (of course they use the wrong "your")?
Make it a great day!

Hi XXX,
I am very interested to hear about the crazy messages you have received so far on this site. I can understand what you might be going through as I too, have received some interesting ones as well.
How do you like Montreal so far? Where in the states are you coming from? I read your profile and you wrote that you also lived in New Zealand. That's great! Traveling is by far one of the most exciting and empowering things, I just wish I could do it more often.
Yoga 5 times a week... Good for you. I wish I could get into yoga more but haven't gotten there yet. I love going to the gym but don't find that I'm very good at yoga so haven't done too much of it lately. Perhaps I will go to a class today... We will see. Maybe your profile (which I agree was well written) has inspired me to do some yoga. I will let you know. Hahaha.
Anyhow, I hope you have a good day.

Hey XXX,
What the heck, how can you tease that you've got some interesting stories and then not share one?! Okay, I'll go first. I've gotten a few messages from "cougars"...I guess my preppy, white boy look fits their eye. There was one who I told twice I wasn't interested and then she messages "ok, but could you at least send a picture of you vacuuming in your underwear?" The weird thing is, after I sent the pic she didn't even respond.
Montreal is a blast, I feel like there's so much to do, yet not enough Summer left to accomplish it all. Are you from Montreal? I'm from the state of Nebraska (cue silence on your part), it's a nice state, but rather boring and the people don't show much interest in travel. New Zealand is incredible, I can't say enough about it, everyone should get the chance to visit. Have you been on any international trips yet?
Ahh but those who aren't "good" at yoga benefit the most from doing it! So did you make it to a class?
My friends and I still quote lines from the movie Rudy from time to time, such a classic. And the Notebook is a guilty pleasure of mine, but please don't tell anyone or I'll start judging you for reading the Twilight series.

P.S. I didn't actually send a pic to the cougar!
