First of all Tom, do you have a pic to go with your ad? If not, then that explains the complete lack of responses. I've posted a total of two profiles on Nerve (the first about three years ago, the new one since I've returned from abroad), both with pics and I got mail from women. That's right: women paid for credits and spent them to talk to me. I've met some fantastic people (and my share of nutjobs) without spending more than I normally would on a night out. That's what pics will do for you. On Nerve, you can post up to 3 of them, so vary your choices (full-body, close-up of face, funny moment, etc.).
Also, many girls put clues within their ad as to how to contact them for free, so you can check that out as well. I always look at profiles with pics, so I make sure to post some as well. Pics, pics, pics!
Finally, when you send messages or reply to them, never forget humour. Making women laugh (with taste, obviously) will beat being overly polite any day. Ever notice how "sense of humour" always ends up so high on the little polls asking what women like in a man? Bingo. This, and your ad, make up your first impression. Good luck! PICS!
