Luv's old thread is in the HOC for being too big.

Post all your dating questions, comments, concerns, advice, and scrutiny in here!

**Lumpy** · 03-18-2013, 10:23 PM

I really don't know what the hell I'm doing in this thread. Boredom? Who knows.

But, I will say this... keg's advice is pretty damn solid, Luv.

Agreed. I've yet to find the off switch for the thinking portion of my brain though.

I don't think you need to turn it completely off, just replace your switch with a dimmer.

It's easier because you have a higher volume of dudes that you can screen for that kind of thing.

I'm not blind to the fact the XY set just wants sex. If you're savvy you can discern which ones fall into that category and the ones that aren't.

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.

Meetup.com I guess. Not that I've used it but that's because I'm in a different situation than you are in.

The majority of guys everywhere are there looking for the hookup. You're going to have to work your way through that to find someone whether it's online, in a bar, or at the grocery store. A church group might be different, but I wouldn't count on it. You don't have to give it up though. And you can be honest about that in your profile to filter out some of the guy who aren't interested in trying very hard to get to know the you above the shoulders.

Have you ever met a roller derby girl?

Prison Bitch · 03-18-2013, 11:38 PM

There's only one sure way to meet women: get out and meet them. Be active, get out of the house, do tons of activities. Nobody ever met a girl playing video games or watching porn or posting on Chiefs Planet.

The vast majority of married people met their spouses through friends. Just a public service announcment. Women are leery of men by nature, as they should be. So if her friend knows you, that's a big plus for her.

KurtCobain · 03-18-2013, 11:39 PM

I really hate the term strange.

Hell I know all about roller derby gals. I had a restraining order against 2 of them. I ran into a couple at a Denny's in 1996 and told them if they could munch carpet as well as they munched their waffles, it's no wonder they looked like such a happy couple. After my meal, they ambushed me in the alley out back with a pantyhose full of nails. Was the comment worth it though? Hell yeah it was!

Then there's my mom...

Fantastic advice

keg in kc · 03-19-2013, 01:45 AM

I've actually met several chicks playing video games, including a few I got involved with.

Porn on the other hand, no luck so far.

Holladay · 03-19-2013, 06:10 AM

I'm old and married for 20 yrs. Best way to pick up a chick is the grocery store. Lady's love a poor sap. "Excuse me, what salt does one use on ....." Pick a cutie. Totally innocent, then let the conversation run from there. Thats assuming you can talk.

Another one, not that I've tried it, at the bar, ask the hotest woman there, no chitchat, point blank "what would it take for me to buy you a drink" or better yet "what would it take for me to take you home tonight". Do that 10 times = score sooner or later.

Law of averages.
