I moved back to a city to be closer to family and am looking to meet new people, not necessarily to date, but start of as friends first. I'm checking out all kinds of sites and using MySpace and Facebook, too. I browsed some profiles on MySpace and requested this guy as a friend, explaining how I moved back and am looking to meet interesting people. He "accepted" me as a friend but that's it. No message. Do you think I should send another email, asking more about him or just give up and move on? I kind of expected him to at least send a short message.
Thanks for your input!
Update: Thank you for all your responses. I prefer face to face contact but like you said, most men are shy and I'm not in a position to be going out to bars and clubs.I sent another quick email to which he never responded, so I deleted him as a friend!

The other girls have good advice about meeting people at the gyn and such, however, I have found that most men in my town are too shy to come up to you anywhere except a bar, and I dunno, but bars are not my thing.
I have met men online through sites like yahoo personals, etc. and while there are some crazy ones, I am seeing one now that is so awesome! For some reason, it seems that men are more at ease talking to a woman online rather than in person. Maybe it's easier to be rejected virtually since he doesn't actually have to be looking at you.
If you do decide to go the online route, be careful and REALLY pay attention to your gut instinct. I don't think myspace is as great, especially if he has a ton of girls on his friends list already. But, it's up to you. If you really feel interested in him, send him an email or message one more time. Then he'll know you are interested and if it's mutual he should respond. I do know myspace has issues with spam type things, so he may not know if you are a real person, etc. Good luck!
Best thing for you to do is go outside. I think sites don't really work unless you sort of know the people and you want to know them more. Best thing to do is join a gym or something that you would be interested in you'll get to know people there
