Don't know ya well enough to tell ya where the problem is. If all else fails, wait till the end of the night, see who's left, and call it a date. Some times ya just need a slump buster.

View Quote You have to meet girls and make friends with them in order to get dates. Hang around with some, even if you don't intend to go further with them (tough to do at that age tho). Even if a girl does not want to become romantically involved with you, she's got friends. In the end, don't worry about, this things eventually come around in a yin-yang kind of way. If a girl turns you down, her loss. Believe me in 20 years you won't remember the names of girls who turned you down in high school. I don't. You got nothing to lose by asking. |

Citabria,
You just need to hang around me more. You'll get plenty of dates. Women are always repelled from me, and go for whoever I'm hanging out with. I think it's one of those "lesser of two evils" things... [:(] Let's go shootin, then we can cruize Richmond. |

(of course at my age the women are divorced and hate men, or have children and don't want you to have anything to to do with helping discipline them because you are not their father so the kids use you for a floor mat). The above parenthesis can cause knock down drag out fights! |

Be smarter than your "bad word control program".
Say you want to say a bad word, like shit for instance. First, type it like "shti", then go back over it, and correct your error, so it should read "shit". I do not believe the programs pick up on that... |

View Quote My 30 year-old great-nephew came to pick something up from me, and read the above over my shoulder. His comment was, "hey that's me!" That's sad. He has a brand new Corvette, a good job, a masters degree, has written a couple of college textbooks, and owns several rental properties. He isn't dating either. That makes me wonder what's wrong with the women that age. Most of the women his age that I know date guys that are out of work, mooch off of them, drive Hondas, and are of questionable sexuality. I just don't get it.z |

the "game" has gotten really weird for me lately. in the last five girls I have dated I will give you some new rules and tips. the first girl wanted me to date her but not show any affection (classic tease). the second one wanted to have sex on the first date and not see me again(slut). now I am not complaining about the second one but when the sex is GOOD you don't mind going back. third and forth were by-sexual and would only feel comfortable having sex with me with their "life partner" in the room. again no complaints. the fifth one had a large number of personal problems and baggage she would vomit forth every time I ask her a question. so having said this:
1. Does she classify you as a "friend". if so you must change this before you attempt first base. 2. is she crazy? if so leave the situation immediately. it seems there are a lot of "city women" on anti-psychotic drugs (the drugs that make them crazy) and you don't want to get yourself and a loaded gun mixed up with a crazy woman. 3. one on one is best. three can be fun but in the long run jealousy always raises it's head. 4. find a way to get on the inside of her defenses. a better way to say this is find out what you want and see if she want's the same thing. warning women will LIE just to get a free dinner, movie or not to feel lonely. 5. how old are you? after age 25 dating can be a miserable experience. people have become too set in their ways and it's hard to find someone you can spend two hours alone with much less two dates a week for a few months. i have this running personal joke that if i find woman attractive she must be married. most of the time she is. it seems the best qualities that may be found in women can be more easily seen in married women. i was dating this one lady for about 6 months and she seemed, well... crazy. we separated and i saw her a couple years later after she had gotten married and she was stable, calm, thoughtful, respectful (of herself and others) and just a good human being. it's like marriage had transformed her into the woman i wanted to marry. ah HELL, maybe i should just get married. i have a 50% shot i will get it right but i will only lose half my 401K plan if we divorce. |

uh, that might scare her. 12 inches is a foot, that's rather large, in fact, about twice the average. You would become a freak. If you need to exagerrate say you have 8 inches.

Being of a similarly youthful age as you happen to be, I suggest the following:
Sophistication, Honesty, Grammatical Correction, Honor, and a willingness to sacrifice PRIDE for those you take out on a date. Just use common sense, be polite, courteous, and treat them like an adult woman. You may think that this would be considered boring, and it may. The trick to coming out on top is to be witty, but not an asshole; strong but sensitive; shy but cute&open (JUST WITH HER). At the end of the evening of your date, state in conversation how you always feel awkward at the end of dates (while walking up the sidewalk to her front door taking her home), then as you reach the door, then say, "and that is why I'm leaving the 'Saying Goodnight' part [i]ENTIRELY[/i] up to you." This will put her in a nervous position, and you will probably not get more than a hug & kiss. However, sometimes I've been so lucky as to have girls almost dying to take me inside (they've said so), but they will leave it at that. Then you can be most certain that they like the fact that you let them make an important decision in life, and will most likely leave them dying for another date. A simple psychological trick I learned at the University of MN... It worked well for me so far, and I plan on using this good-bye technique again soon. Don't be disappointed if you spend $30-$50 on that first date only to get a hug/kiss. Beware of people who want to go into Interior Design or History, It's a SERIOUS indicator of someone wanting to get an M.R.S. Degree (Mrs. So&So)! I know this from experiencing gold-diggers in the past. Just use common sense, and try to be comfortable (but NEVER fart/burp, that's too comfortable). Make her feel at home with you, and she will learn that you "click". Then slowly test her thoughts on firearms and other politics over a tea or lunch/deli meal on about the 3rd - 6th date, so you know you're not wasting your time. I had to try for 6 months to convert my last GF into liking guns, and now her favorite gun is a GLOCK 19C 9mm. It's nice to see a fresh convert, then take them home for a good afternoon of lovin'. Sincerely, |
