I think you're on the right track. The most important thing you can do (that you can control) in order to attract people to you is to be interesting. The second most important thing is to put yourself in situations where you meet new people. My guess is that your roller derby club will help with both.

Have fun with it. Hang out with the friends you make. When you meet (female) friends of friends with whom you hit it off, trade numbers and hang out. Most of my best friends are people who I met that way. The more people you hang out with and can relate to, the more likely you are to meet a guy who clicks with you. It's really no more complicated than that, but you have to be willing to branch out.

If you only hang out with the same people, you are limited in who you are going to meet even if they are great people. Women struggle to make friends after college, so the roller derby thing is perfect.

Not to hijack the thread, but I feel I'm in the same boat a lot of guys are in. It's hard for me to meet new people. First of all, I'm lazy. I don't go out a lot in the first place. I'm not a big bar or club guy. I've always found the whole hooking up at a bar or club thing a little silly. I mean, clearly it's effective for most people, but I'd rather meet someone by chance doing a random thing and have a relationship based on the fact that we liked one another, rather than just meeting someone because we were both "on the hunt at a big hunting ground and likely intoxicated". Also works the same way with the online dating thing. It's stupid for me to eliminate these tools I guess but I'm content being single for now.

I also would like a chance to meet new women in a setting where I can talk for a bit, because they're sure to fall in love once I start rattling off all the vile disgusting CP jokes I stole from SNR.

This worked for me. My wife and I have been together for over 30 years now.

The other night when I was going to that girls art show, it was in Downtown San Diego. That's about a 15 min drive each way. So I drove down there and hunted for parking for about 20 minutes with no luck. Finally parked in a pay lot ($7) and walked to the art show. I saw her stuff and it was nice and the place was packed. I looked around for her and didnt see her among the 250+ people that were there so I sent her a text.

30 min went by and nothing so I left, deflated. I haven't drank all year. That night instead of driving home, I drove to a dive bar by my house, where the bartender is a good friend and talked it out. I was pretty bummed out.

When I got home I noticed my phone was frozen. I turned it off and back on again and a bunch of texts popped up onto my phone. She had been texting me all night asking where I was and what not. I had used some kind of navigation on my phone to find the place and it glitched my phone out and froze it, but I couldn't tell.

I was so pissed at my phone and so embarrassed that I was at the right place and so was she and I couldn't find her.

So I felt pretty bad about myself and today finally got over my embarrassment and asked her out and we're going out on Thursday and this time she's coming this way so I don't have to worry about getting lost lol.

LMAO

Navigation ****ing up your phone happened to me tonight too. I got to the girl's place right on time to pick her up and tried to call her to come downstairs and the call kept not failing to even dial. Finally I had to pull my battery and reboot the phone. By the time I realized the phone was bugged out & it rebooted I was nearly 15mins late and the phone had texts & calls from her wondering if I was lost. ROFL

It will be interesting to see how this plays out. Normally I would tell you take your "L" or in this case "chance" card and moved on.

However I had a similar situation like this happen to me with a girl. I think it actually helped me for a bit because this girl was the ultimate ****ed in the head kind who loved these kinds of games where you ignore her then she chases you. Anyway the relationship didn't end well too old for those types of games. Goodluck Buck.

A friend commented about a tweet I sent earlier today about getting a tongue-lashing and asked if it came from my lady-friend.. At least people assume I'm successful with the fairer sex than I really am.

Which is nice.

sounds like initiating a conversation with unknown people is a prevalent problem. anyone agree?

Now I have a theory on this that I don't necessarily believe applies to me, as I generally don't mind talking to unknown people.

However, I feel that American society is really centered on finding humor in the awkward or different, and that this influences how people treat each other in "first contact" situations.

I'd explain, but I'm not getting paid enough.

This thread delivers.

Not a fan of dating but I do enjoy getting laid. It just sucks. There are too many gold diggers out there.

Guess I'll have to settle for a fat chick..sigh

It seems to have worked out for the both of us, though. :thumb:

We're gold diggers, too. Perhaps you should just stick to men.
