I think if you´re confident enough while doing it (like the guy in the vid or bdizzle;)) and you see that the girl is actually interested there´s a good chance it´ll work...at least short term.

Like I said, I'm conflicted. When you break down the motives behind people's actions, you take a lot of bricks of the briefcase. There's always a case of misreading and having it blow up in your face, but that's life. Instead of being paralyzed with uncertainty, you can look at the person and go, "Oh, so that's why they are doing that."


I like this comment more:


This is great except in the USA there are too many lunatics with handguns and you might get shot. It's a screwed up country. They don't even want free health care. Are they insane?The answer is yes!

How often do you guys just approach women in public? (not bars, clubs etc..) I've rarely seen it done, well actually I'd never know unless I saw the whole thing from beginning to end.

Example
You've never seen someone walk to a girl in public? Seriously? I grew up seeing it everyday in NYC
 
Reading some of the stuff you guys are saying is making my head hurt. Seriously, a girl who goes to a bar/club aren't looking for a relationship?

No wonder some of you guys suck with women. You have all these fucked up preconceived notions that aren't grounded in reality at all. I'm as big as a nerd as anyone on this site, but I still go to clubs, bars, read books, and play video games. It's like you guys really believe everyone is just one dimensional and has no depth to them outside of some image you more than likely seen in the media. Nerdy guys can go clubbing and have fun. Party girls can enjoy the museum and NatGeo.

huh? How does my badge help me to call a woman "sugar drop" while keeping a straight face?

It doesn't, but it helps you play the authority role. If you'd like a demonstration of how such role-play would work, I'm sure bdiz won't get too jealous.

This man speaks the truth. I go out, party and have fun, but then I also post on GAF. I'm a closet nerd I guess.

You guys are making a lot of people agitated for some of the things you say.

I don't understand how posting on GAF = nerd = loser and why you don't understand how not everything works for one person. Just because it works for you doesn't mean it works for everyone else when they've tried it.

Here's one example in video how a bar scene doesn't work out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8WqbJRPXuSM#t=7m14s

7:14-9:02, especially @ 8:40. It just comes out as awkward as fuck. Some guys can pull it off, and some guys can't. Deal with it.

Yes I know the documentary is part of a series called "Desperate Virgins." However, that one scene I'm pointing out has nothing to do with that.

Some people fit better in other social environements like going to church or doing volunteering service or enjoying hobbies in groups. Social activities is key. It doesn't have to be the club scene, which you guys keep emphasizing as the holy grail for a relationship to happen.
 
I wasn't even just talking about girls. And I never said that GAF = Nerd = loser. Also I'm 18, so I don't go to bars/clubs. Just house parties. To me what bdizzle was saying makes sense. And for the record, I'm not a Casanova (why do you think I'm in this thread). I've had some good luck this year, but that's not the usual.

You have to find your groove, and the best way to find your groove is to experiment. One requires confidence to experiment, even when the first few fail (and they might! Not all girls will throw out a double-entendre suggesting they like Orgy's version of Blue Monday.) It's confidence, balls-out cheshire-cat confidence and sly energy that we're selling here. You may find more luck with a social commentary on Gaga than what's on tap at the bar, or the football score rather than what's on stage. Nonetheless, ya gotta make the effort to try in order to find out what works for you. Responding with "that's not me, how could it possibly work" often misses the point (and, demonstrates a 'tude that just turns girls like me right off.)

I've taken (or take) part in figure skating, soccer, ballroom dance, and jiu-jitsu. I work full-time for a living, pay my own bills, read classical novels, and watch crap on television. I keep a tropical fish tank, I know how to reformat my own hard drive, I bake, and sing karaoke.

I also post here. I'm a dork, but it's who I am, and I'm proud of that. That's my groove, and I make it work for me.

Now, I've fallen hard, and I've been thrown, hard. But I get up and keep trying. Masochistic? Absolutely. But I wouldn't be me if I didn't keep pursuing what I believe in.

Yeah that's exactly what I'm saying. I don't see why everyone wants to agree with the guy who keeps telling other guys to go to clubs because it works for him and it MUST work for you.

Fuck. I said to do more social activities and it doesn't have to be the club scene.


And yes, I'm fucking proud of who I am and where I stand in terms of my hobbies. As for appearance and stature, there's nothing I can do except work out, but for things I'm born with like height, I have to say fuck it and ignore that shit. I'm born the way that way and so fucking be it.

By your logic, you are just as one-dimensional, too. A relationship could be found clubbing, but it's NOT the holy grail and absolute fact for everyone as not everyone fits in the club scene.

Playing video games doesn't classify you as a nerd. Neither does reading books.
 
I think what I was trying to say is that the stereotype is that gamers are loners/losers, but we shouldn't follow that stereotype. Yeah we post on GAF, so what, that doesn't mean we are losers.

What? Video games are a billion dollar industry. No one in our generation and younger has not played video games, so we're not losers.
 
I need advice GAF. I went on date with this girl on Saturday, we actually went hiking which was very good because it allowed us to talk and everything went perfect. That same night she sent me a text saying she definitely wanted to hang out again. I know there is that 2-3 day rule but I sent her a random text yesterday just saying " what's up", she replied and said she was at the gym and in turn asked me what I was doing, to which I replied some shit like I was at the Library. Since then silence, I don't want to call or text her because I am afraid it will make me seem needy. What is the reasonable time to wait before I call her again.

I keep changing my opinion here. I have 4 hardcore gamer friends at school. That's basically all they do, play videogames. As far as I know, none of them have been near a women. THAT, is the stereotype (there is also some truth to stereotypes). If you post on GAF, chances are you play videogames much more than someone who doesn't. I was basically agreeing with bdizzle. Yeah so what, we post on GAF, that doesn't mean I'm a loser.

Bdizzle (and others) and I do not always agree. But it also took me a year or so to realize that taking everything everyone says on here seriously was a bad idea.

So try to take the advice in the spirit that it's intended.
 
Random question:

My car lease is up in a few days, and I'm thinking about going car-free for a while in a city without much in the way of public transportation. I live within less than a mile of work, grocery store, and my job so I can walk or bike to all the essential places, plus my friend may loan me his scooter for the summer. Without the lease payments and insurance payments and gas bills I'd be saving about $350-$400 per month.

But I'm anticipating that this will pretty much be the end of my romantic life. It's kinda hard to impress girls when you can't travel out of a 5-10 mile radius and bikes/scooters aren't exactly poon magnets. At the same time, I see guys in much more pathetic situations with girls (though not usually hot ones). So generally speaking, how would the experts in this thread rate my chances? And what's the best way to explain/frame my situation to a girl I've met?

Of course the irony here is that with a car I really don't have enough money to take girls out for drinks or dinner.......without the car I'd have the money for going out but no means to go out other than to the bars and restaurants in my immediate vicinity. So I guess I'm kinda fucked either way :lol Should I keep the car and be a likable poor guy, or lose the car and be a likable slightly-less-poor guy?

:lol stop it. If you post on gaf, you're a nerd. You may not be a loser, but you're definitely a nerd lol. I'm a nerd and I tell everyone female I meet I'm a nerd. I work in IT, the only thing nerdier is being a math geek lol. There's nothing unnerdy about neogaf lol.

There's nothing wrong with being a nerd. You wouldn't believe how many women I've met that tell me they love nerds/smart guys. My 2 gf's said the main thing that attracted them to me is that I was nerdy. The main problem is a lot of you guys seems to be ashamed of who you really are. I remember at one point in this thread guys were saying don't tell girls you play video games, or have an anime collection or some crazy shit like that. I have a damn ryu street fighter IV action figure on my night stand and ryu's theme from street fighter 2 as my ring tone. And girls just don't give a fuck about any of that shit because I'm confident with who I am as a man. Matter of fact, when I take out my elmo house slippers girls actually say their cute and they want to wear them while they're at my house. If you're just comfortable with who you are, most women will fall in line.

I'm trying to remember if you were the guy who'd get pissed off at everyone who would give him advice and have a temper tantrum.........I think you are, but I'm not 100% sure. Anyways.....

Where did I say a club is only place to find a relationship? How many times have I said in this thread women are EVERYWHERE. I'll quote what I wrote to Ultima5

Film, photography, and book clubs are all good choices. Pilates/Yoga/Fitness clubs are good too, but you'd probably need to be in shape to hang with those girls. Also cooking clubs 9/10 is going to be all chicks, but they might be a bit on the chunky side . But honestly you don't HAVE to go to those places to meet women. You can meet women at the gas station, supermarket, hang out spots on campus, etc. If you're school is anything like mine was, there's beautiful women walking around everyday, especially during the spring.

Read the beginning of this thread. I was the one telling Combine to go outside, make eye contact with a girl at the park while he's sketching, and start from there. Not one time in this thread have I told him the only way he can find a girl is at a club. My whole point with telling Ultima to not dismiss girls who go to clubs is because you shouldn't write off an entire group of people based on some pre conceived notion which is more than likely totally incorrect.

Playing video games doesn't classify you as a nerd. Neither does reading books.

Of course games and reading doesn't classify you as a nerd, but if you ask the average person the types of things nerds do, video games and reading will come up 90% of the time :lol. It was a generalization, I figured you would have at least inferred that from my post. It's like you're purposely arguing just to argue. So I'll say it again in clear, concise terms so you can understand. Going to a club is not the only place you can meet women. You can never step foot inside of a club and STILL meet women all over. But don't have the mind set that if a girl goes to a club she's a drunken whore. Because there's a lot of drunken whores in libraries, college campuses, office complexes, restaurants, and anywhere else you think these so called "good girls" hang out at. And if you specifically rule out an entire group of people (club goers for example) for some retarded generalization you have of them, then don't get upset when a women shuts you down because of a dumb generalization she has of guys playing video games, or listens to a certain genre, of music, or likes a certain type food.

If you're referring to me, how fucking dense are you? Go through my posts and READ the number of times I've said, YOU CAN MEET GIRLS ANYWHERE. I meet girls at clubs because it's easy pickings. They go there, they get dressed up, and 8/10 they WANT to meet a guy there. You know they're not busy and interrupting them is never considered rude. I also meet girls at restaurants, book stores, gas station, supermarket, anywhere a group of people congregate. If you're uncomfortable meeting a girl at a club/bar, then 9/10 you're uncomfortable meeting a girl anywhere. So even you never step foot inside of one and go to all of the wonderful places you think all these angelic women hang out at, you'll still have the same issues of lack of confidence, approach anxiety, fear of rejection, and all around being a walking, bleeding vagina.

After reading all of your posts, I'm 99% sure you're the guy that got defensive over any little thing someone said to you.

I thought he was the one giving women advice even though he has never had a girlfriend and touched a girl?

Perhaps we are both right?

I think that's Ether_Snake :|

I don't know his dating history, but doing a quick look back through this thread, he's definitely the guy I was thinking about. Super defensive and takes everything like some sort of personal attack. He's going to have to get that shit under control because no woman (or person for that matter) wants to be around someone who gets easily offended off of anything they say.
 
greenry said:
Why would that be a stumbling block? Only a sucker would pay for everything on a first date.

I usually pay for dinner and whatever else happens when I ask a girl out on a first date. I didn't realize some consider it to be too formal. Unless it's a "hey let's meet up here" type of ocassion, I always pay since I feel like I'm the "host" of the night.
 
Ether_Snake said:
When I say I talked to one girl, I mean actually talked and hanged out with. Met her while I was taking pictures of an isolated church on the seaside, there was no one else, found out she does phitography for tourism brochures, we talked for a while, took some pictures, etc. But she was with a small group of coworkers who were elsewhere in the nearby village and we had to split at some point. Other than that of course I talked to other girls, but nothing that could have led to anything.
Maybe you should work on your conversation/small talk/flirting skills. Every interaction should have the potential to lead to something. Of course not every one will (some girls will be unavailable or in a hurry to get somewhere), but if you're talking to a large number of strangers every day in a foreign country, you should have a lot of opportunity if you're at the top of your game. Otherwise you may need to work on yourself more.

Bdizzle touched on something that I think is important. Being open-minded is key. I see a lot of comments where people are writing off groups of people like "party girls" or "club girls" or pickup artists as a whole. When you make sweeping generalisations like that, you're limiting your choices and there is no need to do that. I'm in agreement with Forza that there are a ton of good, clean wholesome women who go clubbing...maybe not every Saturday, but you'll find most socially active, well-rounded people have gone to a club at some point. So why would you dismiss the potential opportunity for meeting someone there? If you're not the clubbing type, if you go once you might meet a girl who 'doesn't really go to clubs' either. Even if the chances are low, you shouldn't limit your possibilities unnecessarily.

Not everything is black and white. There's a lot of shades of grey. If you've looked into pickup, maybe Mystery's Method may not be for you, but what about cocky and funny or Pickup Podcast's take on natural game? It's best to be open-minded, try a lot of things and see what best suits your personality without writing anything off prematurely.

Close-minded people are a pet peeve of mine. It's really unattractive to meet someone who isn't open to trying new things. Guy or girl, if you're not interested in experimenting or new experiences, it's a major turn-off. Expand your interests and make yourself a more interesting person who's been to a lot of places and has many stories to tell. That will improve your conversation ability and make you more attractive/less awkward in a social setting. You should be conversing with people everywhere, like Bdizzle says. In the elevator, on the street, in bars... Those are all places I've started conversations within the last 24 hours.
 
eh, well, it looks like I will probably be breaking up with the gf. Seems me not being able to get it up has caused her to become unattracted to me (I guess i saw it coming, but third time's the charm, right? and we were only on two, lol)

Anyway, I'm feeling down, I guess this is what knowing it's going to end feels like. I invited her out to dinner tomorrow, so I'm going to talk with her about all of this and if she says she isn't attracted to me as a lover, then I'm breaking it off and looking for greener pastures. I shouldn't stay with a girl that just wants me to be friends with her while we are "going out".

At least, I don't think I should do that.

EDIT:
still a virgin :(

I dunno why, but bdizzle seems like the kind of guy I would like to have a beer with.

100% right, I used to have a real big problem with that. Didn't want to try anything new, and when I did I bitched and moaned. After having a girl tell me I had a bigger vagina than she did, I stopped doing that shit ASAP lol.

Is it your nerves why you can't get it up, or your junk just won't work? If it's your nerves, honestly I'd say do whatever you have to do to get your mind off of it. Alcohol, weed, cocaine, ethanol, scat porn, whatever. If it's medical, go to the doc, and get some viagra or cialis or whatever new pill is out.

And more than likely it's not that she's not attracted to you, it might be she feels you're unattractive to her.

So... one of my housemates is showing some interest. I'm pretty sure she's keen.

Not a path I should go down right?

I wouldn't do it man. If it goes sour, you'll literally be in hell. You know the saying about a woman scorned. Tread carefully, very very carefully.

What the fuck man.

Beer is beautiful.

But hard liquor is equally as beautiful.

Well, it was her best friend that said she didn't like me as a lover but only a friend right now(and that may be because I can't get it up when we are about to have sex), and that she is looking for someone to marry since she is old(china custom shit). So, I think it'd be best at this stage.

And the answer to your question is, yes, it is my nerves. I can get it up everytime when it's just us fooling around (fingering her, BJ/hand job from her) but I have to talk her into sex, and it takes about 30 seconds- 1 minute to do that where she'll finally agree. By then, she isn't excited and I have to get her flowing again and mine just never comes back.

Sounds like you're not very comfortable around her.
 
Yeah, cool it with the "I can't meet anyone at clubs since they won't be my type"... I go clubbing quite a bit, and I'm a total nerd, who probably has more obscure Atlus games than you even knew existed.

In fact, many of the times I went to clubs, the girls I met were of the "I'm not really a big clubbing person, but my friends wanted to go..." type.

It's much easier to proclaim you're not talking to girls because you don't want to than to actually face your fear and do it

What do you recommend, I'll knock one back in your honor this weekend.
Too many to choose from man.

And the beers I'd recommend are probably only available in England, but Newcastle Brown Ale is damn nice.

Sounds like you're not very comfortable around her.

No, I guess I'm really not. I was comfortable around her because I thought we were of the same mind, but after meeting with other people and she is with me, she just says things and does things that she won't do with me, which makes me think she is lying to me about her real feelings, which puts me on the defensive as well.

But, i really do want to have sex with her, she is beautiful, but I just can't shake the feeling. It most likely will never work out between us, the cultural divide is just too big, but I had some fun while it lasted, plus got my first naked chick in bed with me, even took a shower with her once. So, good memories, it's just becoming too much nowadays. I just need to know how she really feels about me and I can't stand the facade she has put up to try and hide it.

That pretty much is what I do with my free time. But well, in the past, the subjects I've come across from other people still don't reflect anything I've gotten to know very well. Usually about sports which I really really don't care for at all. Yes, I know, sports are a huge huge part of normal people;s lives, so me not caring for them will immediately put me at a disadvantage, but what can I say, I just don't like them.

Oh yeah, one thing I wanted to mention was my bro asked me if I wanted to attend a Paul McCartney concert in July and I accepted. It's the first concert I've been to in more than 15 years (last concert really didn't count since it was a John Williams family event thingy). I've always turned down stuff like that, but thought I really should try something new for a change.

It isn't a problem that you don't care about sports. You just have to find a different subject. Music, movies, travelling or just the weather are just a couple of things that you can talk with everyone about.

Also Combine, it's good that you go to the McCartney concert, but from what I've read you've only planned two things (the concert and some online meetup) for the next couple of months. Now I understand that it might feel like a big deal if you never do that sort of stuff but you really should have stuff planned every week, several things a week would be even better.

As long as cognac or tequila is involved i'm in :lol this is gonna sound wierd but I had my first beer in my entire life like last month. I skipped beer and fell in love with hard liquor. I think I'm doing it backwards....
What :lol

I understand if you prefer liquor, but not trying a beer once? My god dude :lol Personally I like light beers. As long as you don't buy really cheap beer, you should be good. Even Corona is nice.

When I was like 5 years old I sneaked a taste of my moms heineken and it tasted like horse piss. I swore off beer for 22 years :lol. Actually I didn't even start drinking any alcohol until I was 24/25.
 
I don't understand how someone can say "I won't date the type of woman who would be caught dead in a bar" in one breathe, and then in the next breathe act like women should just get past their preconceived ideas about the shy, socially inept, gamer stereotype and get to know them for who they are.

Well, it was her best friend that said she didn't like me as a lover but only a friend right now(and that may be because I can't get it up when we are about to have sex), and that she is looking for someone to marry since she is old(china custom shit). So, I think it'd be best at this stage.

And the answer to your question is, yes, it is my nerves. I can get it up everytime when it's just us fooling around (fingering her, BJ/hand job from her) but I have to talk her into sex, and it takes about 30 seconds- 1 minute to do that where she'll finally agree. By then, she isn't excited and I have to get her flowing again and mine just never comes back.

STOP TALKING. She'll push you away if she doesn't want you to.

So... one of my housemates is showing some interest. I'm pretty sure she's keen.

Not a path I should go down right?


Fuck no. I slept with one of my housemates before she was my housemate. We've always got on well since but when we first moved in I was pretty sure she was flirting with me one day when we had loads of people round for a BBQ. We went out to a bar that night and I was unwittingly flirting with all the girls that came - one got hold of my number from a friend and was text-flirting with me throughout the night and I was replying without ever knowing who she was. I was flirting with my flatmate on purpose and this other blonde girl largely by accident.

My mate saw all this going on and made me pinky promise (he's gay) to stop flirting with everyone because I had no real interest in most of them and "someone will get hurt" though as I say, I wasn't totally aware I was flirting at all, I was just being friendly (which in retrospect was why I was doing so unusually well that night).

When we got home I saw my flatmate go into the bathroom so I ran into her bedroom, took off all my clothes except my boxers and got into her bed. She came in and said "what on earth are you doing?"

"GET IN! GET IN, IT'LL BE GREAT!"

Then she saw my clothes and said "OH MY GOD ARE YOU NAKED?"

Of course, I wasn't, so I confidently proclaimed "Nope!! Look!" and ripped off the duvet. She took one look at my crotch area and looked appalled - looked away real quick and said "Oh god" - I looked down and saw my dick was hanging out of my flies.

She just stood there confused and bewildered, with her hands literally on her head, when my mate came running in and shouted "MATT, YOU PINKY PROMISED!" At this point it hit home that a) I wasn't going to get any sex in this room and b) I probably shouldn't be in my flatmates bed, so I jumped out, grabbed all my clothes and ran up to my bedroom where a bunch of people were getting stoned.

I told the girl who I was text-flirting with, the blonde and my housemate's exboyfriend what had happened. The latter thought it was hilarious, and the former two didn't seem too offended because soon it was just the three of us. Anyway rather than do the awesome and turn a horrible situation into a threesome, I started kissing the blonde when text girl started falling asleep, she saw and said something snarky (at this point I still didn't know why she'd care) and fucked off, leaving me alone with the blonde.

I was by this point, after a day and night's worth of drinking a drinking and a couple of spliffs, far too fucked to get it up, so I rimmed her (yeah), asked her what the worst thing she wanted done to her was and fell asleep.

The next morning my housemate was really upset, not about me jumping into her bed mostly naked but at the thought that I slept with the blonde. I told her, semi-truthfully, that we "only kissed". Just didn't say where.

TL;DR: Don't sleep with your housemate.

Sex should be primal and impulsive. You make it sound like you are trying to broker a business deal into her pussy.

I'll give the short version, cuz the long version is still too painful lol. Met a girl, spent a bunch of money, had sex. The reason I'm pissed is because 1) I never spend money on girls and 2) I NEVER SPEND MONEY ON GIRLS!!!!!

That doesn't make you a nerd.

The concept of anybody having scruples in the dating world is dumb. People their is no such thing as "type". Get rid of that concept and you will up your play quotient.

I think that's Ether_Snake :|

I don't know his dating history, but doing a quick look back through this thread, he's definitely the guy I was thinking about. Super defensive and takes everything like some sort of personal attack. He's going to have to get that shit under control because no woman (or person for that matter) wants to be around someone who gets easily offended off of anything they say.

I remember clearly you keep pushing guys into the clubbing scene, and I said that's clearly not my thing to do. Yet many of you ignore and cover up a lot of things and take it that my experiences are not true at all. I'm sure bdizzle is going to quote this saying I just told you that I haven't been saying that, but the impression that you give off and how you talk about your ladyfriend experiences seems to be that way.

I guess let's put it this way. The way that people look for relationships are varied. Some are looking just for fun, and others look for something meaningful. From what I've seen, people look for relationships either for the physical aspect of things or the emotional part. For the most part, I've seen guys who want relationships just for sex. Face it. A lot of them fall under the young category for that.

As for some other dudes, they want something more than that as that's not something they've experienced being close to a female that doesn't revolve around physical pleasure. They don't want to play silly stupid games of not calling and how many xyz days to call her again sort of shit. They want to settle down with someone, and not looking at bouncing from person to person.

As for the people I know who went into relationships looking just for sex, their relationships only lasted at most a few years, and it withered away. They're now single (and loving it) since now they can pretty much bag any girl for their needs.
