    Not long out of a long term relationship and a bit rusty with the opposite sex, anyhow saw somebody on bebo who knows a friend of a friend, fine looking thing!
    Decide it's time I get fishing again:D
    Anyhow, totally out of ideas as to initiate a chat.
    Suggestions folks, she doesn’t know me but she definitely knows of me, and I added there as a friend..
    Anyways..what is a guy to do is such a situation

    Try and find a common interest for example a band she likes that you like and then.

    "Hey , so your into X band, did you see them when they played?Was class..."

    and off you go take it from there...

    I'm assuming you can message her, (as in her page isn't private and therefore only accessible to friends).

    Send her a message, it doesn't matter what it's about. Almost anything will be fine, the content is largely irrelevant what she will be chuffed over is the fact that you bothered to get in touch at all.

    Obviously then a good idea would be to see if you have any common interests, maybe she has some photos from a mad night out you can comment on, or even a blog entry, or some stupid quiz you can take and then point out how similarly ye scored, (although that might be going a bit far :p).

    Bottom line, contact her through bebo, don't vex yourself over the message content, just try to keep it light (i.e. DO NOT send her "Oh hey, I just noticed you on so-and-sos page and ohmygodicantbewithoutyouyourethesuntomymoonpleaseletmeseedyourripeandreadyfurrowswithmyoverbearinglypowerfulmanJ", I'd bet good money she'll bite, she responds, and hey presto dialogue is open. Babies are imminent :D

    Then it's down to your innate charm, and basic niceness, and obviously whether there's any chemistry/spark/need for a restraining order :D

    Toodle pip old boy.

    P.S. I've just experienced first hand how difficult it is to type WITHOUT correct punctuation....why do people insist on doing this all the frakking time in a sad bid to look cool?

    Hey OP,

    I'm on bebo too and I have been added and chatted to by loads of randomers. I mean complete randomers. Usually I wouldn't give them much attention especially if they're just commenting the usual crap of "wow you're hot xxxxxx" and other sh*te like that! Don't do that anyways!

    Recently my friends friend began beboing me. He's actually pretty cool and I took the time to chat to him because he wasn't trying the macho talk like above and he was not a total randomer as he knows my friend. Chatting is going well, he's very nice. So just add her and leave a quirky comment, something funny. It'll make her smile and then you've made a good impression! :D

    Good Luck!!
