February 12, 201016 yr QUOTE (MHizzle85 @ Feb 12, 2010 -> 03:17 PM) IMO, I'd keep it casual. If you're doing something in Naperville, I wouldn't go for anywhere too fancy. I was thinking of Mongolian BBQ, not La Sorella Di Francesca.
February 12, 201016 yr QUOTE (iamshack @ Feb 12, 2010 -> 03:20 PM) Well, we clearly do not agree. One thing to keep in mind, CC. The guy you responded to is not your best friend. You don't know him and he doesn't know you. You, or I, have absolutely no idea how he will take such a comment, how we might react to it, etc. So in the future, all I ask is you keep things like that to yourself, or make your intentions a bit more clear. Thank you for your insight. In the future, all I ask is you reference any derogatory comments you wish to attribute to someone. Sorry for the intrusion, back to your regularly scheduled thread everyone.

February 14, 201016 yr Apparently the cool thing to do last night was a drive-by groping of my junk. Was tackled and made out with twice last night, once hot, once not. Also had my pants removed by force at a party. Eventful night.

February 14, 201016 yr Found out interesting news last night. A friend of mine apparently has been on the phone with the girl I've been talking to and has been making fun of me for having no game all of this time. Some friend he is and apparently she's in a relationship with a guy in the military. So, I spent the evening with my gay friend at Roundhead's and took down some jager and a Washington Apple drink. Weird times, and it looks like I'm back to the drawing board again as I'm passing over this floozy girl.
February 14, 201016 yr If you have no game, one of the things you can do is try to play up your lack of game.

February 14, 201016 yr QUOTE (The Beast @ Feb 14, 2010 -> 04:17 PM) You're kidding me, right? Not at all. It's one thing to have no game. It's another to be totally cognizant of it and try to use it to your advantage. Feign confidence if you have to.

Feign confidence if you have to. My best friend has always been like this and it works fairly well for him. Sure, there are some women that totally don't get it, but then there are women who totally adore him for it. It seems to work well on vacation. Whenever we are on vacation, he picks up like 25 times as many women as he does at home. The key is being comfortable and confident with your lameness.
February 14, 201016 yr QUOTE (The Beast @ Feb 14, 2010 -> 04:17 PM) You're kidding me, right? he would be dead on with that strategy.

If you don't have what you want, then learn to use what you got. I have no game. I've embraced that. If nothing else, I've made more friends (including ones that I would consider to be the more "popular" type) if I'm willing not only to be myself, but to play that up. The key is not to be meek about it.
February 14, 201016 yr Author The key to that is to be confident at the same time. Don't make it out to be feeling sorry for yourself because you can't pick up chicks. Mention that you have no game and poke fun at some of the things you've done to pick chicks up. Women don't like sad sacks, but they do like confidence. This is where the thought that chicks love an asshole comes into play, because generally assholes come off as confident (and sometimes overconfident) and women will eat it up.

Don't be afraid to "use" your friends to an extent, too, to try and start a conversation with someone. That and basic economic theory, of course.

February 14, 201016 yr Beast, your "friend" is using high school tricks. If she is playing along, or also dating some guy in the military(which probably means nothing), then move along my friend.

If she is playing along, or also dating some guy in the military(which probably means nothing), then move along my friend. Agreed, well my "friend" is someone that I knew from the paper in high school and at my previous institution. I'm definitely moving along to the next one. On the discourse of playing up my "no game" deficiency, I think I might as well just do it. The situation is that we go to this club on Saturday nights and it's real loud. I'll try and approach the girl with confidence, and come up with some weird pickup line before saying, "I bet some guy has probably already given you this lame line...can I buy you a drink?" "Yeah, I'm lame. But I'd like to hear some more about you to off-set my lameness."
February 15, 201016 yr Its all in your head Beast, you just think things through a bit too much. Relax a bit and have fun, it will come to you. Planning the whole event is just going to leave you upset when something doesnt happen the way you planned it or if something happens that you didnt plan for Edited February 15, 201016 yr by KyYlE23

I chose the wrong school for me and should have taken a year to man up by going to the community college and figuring out where exactly I wanted to go as well as learn some responsibility and people skills. Seriously, I was (yes was, I admit it) a f***ing reh-tard. Instead, I was high off my ass for a girl and chose a college that didn't suit me. Some days I wonder what would have happened if I accepted the break up during my senior year and just started working on my life from there. Even so, when was was at the initial institution, I became the slave of the media and never had time for myself or to discover who I was. So my views never changed until I was able to experience life and drop my "dream job" of covering stories I didn't give a crap about. Forgive the rant but that's exactly how I felt about the media, my grades slipped and I hated my life. I also needed to realize that there were more committed people out there to give their lives to a career they really wanted and that I wasn't the hottest thing on the face of the planet. But anyway.
