And in some cases, even those two points may be optional.

I think the problem you have with meeting women is that you have a terrible attitude and misconceptions about women that are very obvious.
Topher925 said:I've used them on occasion but only to get a laugh. I don't think anyone has ever taken them seriously.
And my problem with meeting women is that my standards are to high and I'm to stubborn to settle. I only have three simple criteria that a girl would have to meet in order for me to actually be interested in them. So far, none of them have met all three.

NeoDevin said:Female, alive, and willing? Or is that aiming too high?
Topher925 said:Thats aiming little high, but that's the only requirements for me to go home with them.![]()
For me to actually be interested in an actual relationship with them they have to be ambitious, intelligent, and an atheist.
No, Einstein stated that he was agnostic in several letters that he wrote. It seems Hawking is listed as agnostic or atheist.WaveJumper said:Atheist? Is that as important as intelligent? Didn't Einstein believe in an impersonal God? I bet Stephen Hawking and Michio Kaku believe as well. But well, that'd be a funny pick up line if you tell the chick she must be an atheist.

A whole lot more genteel and "couth" than buying a lady a drink after complimenting her rack and asking how she likes her eggs cooked.
cronxeh said:You do realize that knowing a famous man's biography inside out is kind of pathetic? You think by replicating Einstein's or Feynman's life you will somehow become them? I mean I can see how you would be smarter if you studied same subjects they did, but using same pickup lines and adapting same habits will not make you them. You either have it or you don't and that is exactly the point of this thread - if you can't pick up a woman then no pickup line can help you
BobG said:When I say a 'bar', I mean atmosphere - .98692 atmospheres to be exact.
BobG said:Hmmm, that's a good question. Warehouses with dog agility training events is one option, but it's not exactly a very daring social excursion.
Turbo had a suggestion that actually works pretty well in this area of the country (he's not the first person I've heard this from).
It's not quite so archaic around here, except they actually have contra dancing, which is a little bit different (a little more international flavor) and they don't have them in barns.
The plusses are:
Contra dancing is not the same as country line dancing.
Contra dance groups receive absolutely no funding from Oliver North.
We do not wear costumes (except on Halloween) or any particular style of clothes. (I think this might mean nude dancing, but I'm not sure since I've never actually seen a contra dance).
Contra dance is a form of dance that thrusts a different person of the opposite sex into your arms every 30 seconds or so.
Contra dancers make eye contact whenever possible. Remember: they're gazing into your eyes not because they love you but because they want to make the connection, and they don't want to throw up on you. (partners considerate enough not to throw up on you is a very big plus).
So the options are:
Hillside Community Center
or (if willing to go out of town):

Man, that's going to be really hard to choose between those two options.

So that explains why most girls travel in packs, dance in a circle, and shield each other away from men trying to dance with you.Evo said:When a group of girls go to a bar/club, they scope out all of the men and call dibs. No Pointman or Wingman or Pacman is going to get the object of his desire if she didn't call dibs on him first.
Evo said:I'll let you guys in on a secret. When a group of girls go to a bar/club, they scope out all of the men and call dibs. So if Cindy calls dibs on the guy I want, no matter what happens or what that guy does, I am required to snub him all night. So, even though he might have been my dream man, to remain friends with Cindy, I have to act uninterested and talk about Cindy's great qualities. No Pointman or Wingman or Pacman is going to get the object of his desire if she didn't call dibs on him first.
I figured out this rule quickly and would only go out with girlfriends that disliked the type of guys I liked and vice versa. For example Moonbear and I would be great at cruising bars together since we like opposite types of men, physically.

I'm nearsighted and Cindy has eyes like a hawk. She would call dibs on guys I couldn't even see yet.moose said:I tend to approach mere seconds after first seeing a girl/group of girls. In that case I don't think dibs can be called fast enough. However if I'm busy then I guess dibs can be called on me...
I'm curious whether girls I know do this. I am about to send some text messages...
Show me a credit report, bank statement, and title to the car and yacht to prove it, and I'll let you stay and talk to me.cronxeh said:"My FICO score is 850 and I drive a Porsche. Would you like to go for some champagne on my yacht?"
That line .. yea.. that very line.. if all elements are true, it works![]()
Of course I would. Humor is always good to break the ice.Cyrus said:Ladies ONLY:
If a guy says 'you have the most bla bla bla eyes' at a bar would you even give him 5 mins of your time?
I prefer bars with people in them. I don't go to the expensive places like that...just a bunch of overpriced drinks and snooty people who think they're too good for people who would go to the local neighborhood bar. And, everyone in those snooty bars is on the prowl. Folks in the neighborhood bar sometimes wander in just to have a drink, watch a game, grab a bite to eat, and maybe make a friend or two chatting with other patrons.Cyrus said:It's hard having conversations when people live in vastly different places from one another. Where you live, where I live, and where turbo live, it's hard to talk on the same page because things are so fundamentally different.

mcknia07 said:Ok, so are wingmen for insecure guys, then? Like, they can't get a girl on their own, so they have to friend to boost their confidence...and get a girl for them...
mcknia07 said:Ok, that is very true too. We don't want a loser,![]()
JasonRox said:So, like usual, I think let's have fun. I tell her to guess mine... obviously way off. They always guess something like business (popular). Then I'm like.. "Let me guess your program. But first, you need to spin around so I can get a good look of you, and make a good guess." Haha, my friend liked that. I even stopped her half way. ;) And after that, how bad your guess is never really matters. If you get it right, bonus points... why? Read psychology. Exercise of the day.

moose said:By the time a girl finds out I'm a physics major, it always makes her more interested in me than before. This is true even if she hates physics. To most people science = smart (whether its true or not). If you are an interesting fun guy, and show none of the stereotypical science nerd personality traits, then having them think you're smart always helps. If you don't believe me, imagine some guy who is the life of the party, a super fun outgoing confident man. Someone who's wanted by most females. Now imagine finding out that he's studying some scientific field!
Holy **** that's perfect. When I have a girl do a spin, I usually slap her *** and say "that's all you get, don't get any ideas". Sounds stupid but has always worked for me (note: probably* don't do it right when you first meet her...). Psychologically, if you get hers correct, does it build rapport or...?
*there are exceptions to everything
No, I'm not talking about a sports bar, I'm talking about a local neighborhood bar. Sports bars are the bars plastered with TVs in every corner. I don't go to sports bars either, because nobody there wants to talk to anyone, they just want to sit and watch a game and drink their beer.Cyrus said:What you're talking about is a sports bar. I don't go to sports bars because I don't watch sports (sorry, I aint a real man).
I never heard the version they're supposed to boost up their buddy before this thread, and never experienced that. I'd be really turned off if a guy seemed to be hanging around with a puppy who could do nothing but brag about him. It would just seem weird. Usually, the version I've heard of, and seen, is more that the "wingman" converses with the less desireable of two women when there are only two out together. The idea is that it increases the chances of a guy getting the target if she isn't feeling bad about abandoning her friend, since her friend is also having a good time with a guy. It's not needed with larger groups of women, because singling one out won't leave the rest sitting around bored.mcknia07 said:Ok, so are wingmen for insecure guys, then?

mcknia07 said:Oh I am afraid you might be wrong. Granted, they can be cute at times. Not all people will get them, ok, and to be honest, I don't get them most of the time. I tend to stare with a blank look. It takes a long time for me to get something, and most of the time it has to be explained. Even then, it hits me like 10 minutes after, and I randomly laugh, lol. Being blonde can do that![]()
Heh, well it's supposed to be more subtle than what I described.I never heard the version they're supposed to boost up their buddy before this thread, and never experienced that.

turbo-1 said:You don't even have to go to those lengths. Dogs are incredible ice-breakers. One year in college, I lived across the street from some people who had a very smart and friendly springer spaniel, and they pretty much ignored him. I'd drop over and "kidnap" Bilbo and take him for long walks. He learned to heel very quickly and he would always come when I called him, so I didn't have to leash him. Spend an hour or so sitting on the library steps with a dog, and you'll meet more ladies (in a non-threatening environment) than you'll ever meet in a bar.

JasonRox said:I hate wingmen.
I only know of two I would trust. The first I had to like... be tough on him because he would do things I hated. He started listening, and it started working much much better. But usually, you're on your own. So much better.
Did you ever go to meat markets with the sole purpose of hunting men? We weren't there because we wanted to listen to music or have drinks, we were on a mission.Moonbear said:I've never called dibs on guys when going out with my friends...hmm...maybe that's why they always got all the guys.![]()
