OP if they can read minds, then it's game over cuz you should be ashamed of yourself for wanting to hook up.

ok wait, I got it. what you do is line the inside of a baseball cap with tinfoil so they can't read your mind, or see the tinfoil. then you spot them in a reflection in a storefront, and walk backwards at them all nonchalant-like. after you bump into them, apologize and ask if they know which end of the mall Neiman Marcus is on, or if they know a jeweler who fixes Rolexes.

it won't get you anywhere, but you'll have done a good deed for someone who is too uptight to have fun.

I like this theory. One moment looking at OP with the look of utter boredom. Next moment OP doesn't exist and licking yourself seems like a good idea. Meow.

way better than the alternative, that a guy deserves to be called out just for trying

are you from Ontario (around Toronto) by any chance?

there's something you should know about girls/women... while men will make an issue of things as they come up, and break up with their significant other when it's necessary, women will keep quiet and start looking for someone else, and not break it off until she has someone to go to. "they always keep one foot in the door" is how my close friend describes it. so my point is you shouldn't worry about it when she mentions she has a boyfriend, or a fiancee, even.


this...is sometimes true. i'm guilty of it. recently guilty. but the important caveat here is to realize there is always a reason.

-Yes, this thread is weird. But one of the best ones in OOPE since the "Why Sneezing is Excellent" one.
-Rains, you might as well archive those posts. You know you'll need them again.
-Gawd, I'm glad I don't have to deal with the opposite sex interpersonal drama game anymore. It's good to be old. Smile

Being successful at dating is easy and can be achieved anywhere!


You just need to stick to some rules:


If you have only one of these skills, make sure it reaches Level 5:

1. being handsome.

2. being rich.

3. being extremely funny.


An appropriate mix of these three skills at lower levels could work out, too. It all depends on how you use them, in the end.

How powerful will you be?

(Your Wizard Level equals the number of Magic Crystal Balls you own)

Wizard Level: 1337

sort of. I've been told many times that women interpret handsome = trouble. if that's something you have going for you, just keep that perception in mind and maybe be nice. 'clean and well groomed' comes in a close second, for practical reasons.

rich is a tricky one. the problem with spending money for dating is girls/women get used to things very quickly. I think it's important to watch where the money goes. a lawyer friend of mine once told me "it's not about having money. it's about money placement." so have it, but spend it on yourself/make sure it stays yours.

...put yourself in their position. imagine you meet a woman who constantly spends money on you. yeah it would be nice, but what would you think about them, especially early on. would make you wonder why someone places a real monetary value on your company, wouldn't it? and that's been the experience of a lot of girls. the fact is, quite a few of them think a relationship means having access to your wallet. borders on prostitution imo.

so how much money does one need, exactly? it's relative, and I don't think it's just about money; it's also about your future potential. you only need more than the last guy or girl she dated Cool. just because she has a boyfriend or had one doesn't mean he's great. and it's really nothing to worry about, cuz if you seem to be something better, she'll give you the time of day, and if she's happy with her significant other she'll probably just politely tell you so. that's a pretty good outcome in itself, so there's no reason not to try.

as for funny, I suppose that's a thing for some people, but I don't ever think about making her laugh. but i do think about making her naked. and I think "make her laugh" is a failed piece of advice because it's incomplete. like, it's not really an end-state. (so you've made her laugh, now what?)

but if you must, I suppose you could ask if she's ever heard of the sport known as midget tossing. or something

if you're trying to capture the essence of 'a good time' I think it's important to convey a sense that everything is under control and there's no reason for her to not trust you, AND that you'll appreciate good behavior. [lol good behavior. interesting choice of words.]

she has to know that you'll do very naughty things to her. being funny in itself doesn't really convey that.

"midget tossing. it's exactly what it sounds like. some tossers have different techniques, it's all in regulation. you can grab them by the wrists, or one wrist one ankle, or both ankles. you know the hammer toss? where they pick up a weight and spin with it a couple times and let it go? yeah, that but with midgets. usually into a pool."

all this over analyzing...

what ever happened to just being the courteous, honest as possible, funny, good looking, decent in bed, not a tightwad, not too overly nice in your manner towards me (that is have a mind of your own and not just try to please my every whim)...but not an ******* either kind of guy? Straight

is this too much to ask?! holy ****!

what would be wrong with that? I have like a collection I've acquired from guys over the course of my gaming career. some coaxed...some just freely sent. it's sort of weird. like a conquest thing, i suppose.

I have this innocuous sub folder in my pictures labeled "twilight pics" and while I do like twilight...there are no such pics in there lol! but the chances of the bf opening a folder called "twilight pics" are very remote. which is certainly for the best and working as intended. I wouldn't want to have to explain a veritable phallic forest of images.

cute btw. good and toned. Blink I thought I saw a pic of you one other time a good while ago. ona bus or something. I could be mistaken. I don't remember you looking exactly like that if so.

Well friend, let me tell you this as a natural born and bred Latinamerican Male (Venezuelan) , having traveled across several countries in this beautiful part of the American Continent and several Caribbean Islands.

You are just LOOKING IN THE WRONG PLACE ...

Every single Expat from Canada, UK, USA and any other european country get 10000000000x more positive "hits" from women in Latinamerica than their own countries.

Gringos get dazzled by the sheer affection of our women, and if you treat them well, they will not only cook and give you strong, healthy children, they will gladly help support the house and a great number of them dont mind you being the bread-winner of the family.

Even Spaniards I have met here that have married local women enjoy how women here can be women without trying to take your pants and pretend they are men, since I know many people from Spain that refer to their women as "Men with breasts" Lol "Tios con tetas"

I am ok with sexual liberation and women empowerment and equal wages for women, but I know many men get sometimes shadowed over by working women that behave like men and in the end, being so self-reliant that they don´t really NEED a man at all, except for sex and/or women that are looking for Prince William himself to wed them as they "look for love" in several relationships that last but a mere twinkle in the fabric of Space-Time, there are also the classic gold-diggers and other bumps in the road, but that goes with the territory.

Come down here, despite the many wonders of modernity, most of our women are still very much traditional women, hearty, affectionate, caring and loving.

Heck I can even try to hook you up with 3 family members and 1 very young pretty family friend that is single if I find you good enough for them (after some beers and lengthy conversations of your intentions)

That´s how we do things down here.

You can come to Panama, Dominican Republic, Nicaragua, Venezuela or Colombia (countries I know very well) and find a decent woman just by living there some months. Avoid the cities, the country women down here are still down to earth women that have strong family values and fearful of G-d.

We all are pretty Christian down here, so I hope that isnt a hassle, specially Catholics and local branches of Protestantism, so I let you know this first beforehand since I know religious values can be quite different up there.

Finding partners is not that hard, you just have to know where to look.

This is my free advice to you.

If you want more info just PM me, I can offer you more guidance in your quest.

Cheers and be Happy Friend!

Big smile
