Also, don't stick to anyone's advice but what you feel is going to work. If she pushes you away from the beginning don't make a dive for her phone number. If she embraces you from the beginning and takes up a strong interest in you, then don't worry about getting her phone number and just head in for the kill.

Make sure you're comfortable with what you're trying to achieve before you attempt to do so.

Wow Vestin, I'm totally against your thoughts of this whole thing being "creepy". And WTF - you can't friggin tell him that without your own experience using MySpace.

MySpace is by far one of the best forms of communication, and it brings socialism up by a longshot. But I will continue being enraged and totally pissed off everytime I hear shit on CNN news about these poor innocent young girls getting raped by these pedophiles. Those kind of f***ed up individuals deserve to get hanged by their b*lls. (I will edit this part if needed - moderator can send me a PM - please don't delete).

My suggestion Evang - just say "HI whats up" or something casual - use MySpace and maybe send her a photo or so. Be friends .
I wouldn't say its creepy at all - she put everything about her on MySpace so thats intention to meet more peeps and hold more conversations with various individuals. If she intended to stay more private about herself, she wouldn't have done this or else she would have deleted her account by now.

Don't even try rushing to date her yet - you weren't friends and didn't really know each other in HS. So take some time in getting to know her more by just talking to each other. Explore her and hopefully she'll want to explore you by asking you questions about yourself. After you get to know each other well enough - ask her out on a date if you're comfy enough.
-But this is just my advice - be biased on your own decisions and do what you feel is right (Vestin stated it, so I agree with him on that matter).

And if she thinks your creepy - then just back off for a good while (or permanently until she says something back to you). Perhaps she's using MySpace to just keep contact with her close friends from HS, but no one knows that but her. But still, I'd say she's full of crap, perhaps high maintenance, unsocial, and just too picky if she ignores you after your first conversational attempt.

As sung by Eminem from the 8-Mile Soundtrack titled 'Lose Yourself'-
Look, if you had one shot, one opportunity
To seize everything you ever wanted…One moment
Would you capture it or just let it slip?
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime

Take a stab at it!

How ya doing, buddy?
