    I’ve lost count of the number of women who berate guys for ‘being shallow’ and only caring about looks, then turning down guys for not wearing the right kind of shoes or whatever… Huh?


    I care too much about people's feelings to ever disrespect someone who approached me, whether I liked them or not I still have manners.  Some people are just shallow and immature.

    Some of them grow out of it, some of them never do.

    It's just one of those sucky things about life.

    Or go to lots of clubs, try talking to girls. Don't come off as desperate. Have standards and dignity. Be witty, confident and present yourself well. Different girls are different so don't expect the same reaction from every girl. If a girl doesnt seem to responding, move on. Basic, yeah?

     It all sort of melds into one reaction after a while, and gets very disheartening. When you suffer from clinical depression, like I do, it makes things like constant rejection difficult to take — especially when you’ve tried to work on getting to that point in the first place. Pretty soon you can predict the general parameters of women’s reactions to you, including the fact that the ones that talk to you openly and eagerly are in relationships already (presumably because they don’t feel ‘threatened’ by guys when they’re already with someone).

    If I believed in reincarnation at all I probably WOULD cap myself and try to start again and make a better go of things, lolz.

    Oh look, I’m being boring again. Cheesy

    Probably not a library, but bookshops, coffee houses, etc. Yes. As long as you’re not a lecherous one–liner kind of guy like you’d get at nightclubs. It lets you have a decent talk without all the yelling in ears, etc.


    Quote from: BerberElla on January 22, 2012, 08:46 PM
    Yea, I don't see why not.

    I'd be totally open to someone hitting on me in the library as long as they just started up a conversation.

    Infact, being me, that would probably make me even more interested.  

    Alright that's good to know.  Afro

    I probably would. But my wife has a more stringent ethical code, so she would not be interested in you or any man in that sense. She choices to have that moral code, I choose to be a moral nihilist.

    How to get chicks?

    Drive to the club in a fancy sports car. Wear high end clothing. Have a reservation already in place at the VIP section. Open up expensive bottles.


    I have never done that. Fuck no.

    the OP is about picking up chicks. And that will most certainly help you pick up chicks. And I had nothing to say about women in general. Nor whether how the female members were treated was acceptable or not. It appears many people have a trouble putting things properly in their head.

    The sort of girl who will dismiss you because of your looks (or what you see anyway) is the same sort of girl who loves the flash cars and flash money.


    I don't think that's a reasonable assumption. Looks are justifiably important to women, and I would think it's far more common for women to turn a guy down because she doesn't find him physically attractive than because he's not loaded.

    You don't know me. You don't know what I look like. You don't know me other than what I post on here. And I don't see what the necessity is to have to reference me like that. Its pretty insulting. And I very rarely go to clubs because I can't afford it. If I do, I go with my few friends and we spend most of the time drinking and sitting at the entrance and talking about philosophy, current events etc. Or we go to a club that plays the music we love and that's just that. No bitches here. Don't judge me.


    Quote from: passingaround on January 22, 2012, 08:07 PM
    Gee and all the while I thought a club was where young people go to get wasted and have a little excitement. Guess I was wrong. Ho, well. Ok Berbs, I think maybe Os is a better person to have a discussion with about this sort of a thing.

    Adios


    Quote from: passingaround on January 22, 2012, 08:22 PM
    I never hit on girls at clubs, so I don't have any ideas. And also the things stated sound so damn ridiculous (that is the things mentioned done by the guys hitting) is hard to take seriously. I think the stuff mentioned what to do and what not to do are all pretty much common sense? No offense to anyone. No intention to kill the mojo of the thread. Please carry on ladies.

    Err, the same way a teetotaller, does not drink, but its OK for a non-teetotaller to drink. Or someone to have a particular dietary choice. Who makes you the morality authority to judge what is OK and what is not OK?

    So if she decided that she DID need a shag from someone else you’d be OK with that?

    Apparently you don't seem to understand the meanings of the coloquial terminology you use.

    I didnt claim to be getting intimate with women on a grand scale, or even at all for that matter. And I specifically said I don't try to do so. So no, there was no claim made and therefore none failed to live up to.

    No I wouldn't. But I wouldn't go and kill her or beat her up. I'd probably leave her if she continued to do it. Because I'd rather not be in a marriage context with a partner who is open. I'd rather have that in a girl/boy friend context. I would not mind if my girlfriend shagged someone.

    ^ No. Dr David Holmes at Manchester Metropolitan University has done research showing that women are more prone to cheating…

    At any rate, your attitude to the differences between you and your wife is a very muslim–oriented one (it’s OK/less bad for the man to do it), and I believe it’s also known as hypocrisy.

    I believe I honestly can I say I haven't.

    Not even to just big myself up online, but I haven't.

    My exes make up an ecclectic style in which no one looks the same, and very few meet these super high beauty expectations. 

    I've always, always been in it for the personality.

    The amount of times I have had a friend say "but you're out of his league" and thought, "what the fuck ever, I don;t think so, I think he's awesome" and still believe it.

    I'm not saying I'm perfect, but I don't go for a specific look.

    I'm not even attracted to guys shorter than me normally, but I have dated a fair few who were shorter than me because at the end of the day, none of that shit matters when it comes down to it.

    Don't believe in everything you hear from social experiments because even scientifically they are not fool proof. But common sense and experience should tie in with this as well. And of course this is but generalization.
