"so do i just go to request money and anter his email and thats it?"
Basically yes, but since you just signed up for a basic account you can only accept money from someone who has existing monies in thier account, not paying through credit card or debit card...
"willit go into my paypal account since i didnt get signed up with my bank account?"
Yes it will go into your paypal account and you can either spend it through your paypal account, or request a check which there is a fee in getting a check.

wow thats cool so i have a paypal account then? if he sends me moneyit will go strait to it? and i can buy stuff online using my paypal account? can i use it on ebay? lol sorry for the 1 million question. thanks
Raleigh:
Yes, you have a paypal account. As soon as he sends you the funds it will show as a balance in your account and you can spend it anywhere that takes paypal, ebay sellers, newegg.com....

I could be wrong on this, but I thought that paypal quit offering getting your funds as a check. I know half.com did (which, along with paypal, is owned by ebay.)
Also, be careful if somebody tries to pay with a credit card. You'll have to upgrade your account to accept it, and then you'll have to pay a percentage on top of every transfer.
