I actually agree with a fair bit here, especially the points regarding addressing her games while she is doing them and remaining emotionally stable.

Every experience I've had with a girl in which she is doing some little game to test me and I point it out, ends up being positive. Not only do I feel it's a natural reaction but I just think it's good overall for the relationship, removes the bullshit from the beginning.

Also the point about remaining emotionally stable is solid. I also think this goes along with not pushing girls to do something they don't want to do. Not only is this disrespectful to the girl, but it shows that you are needy. I have learned to say "okay" to girls regardless of what happens, and I always feel that the situation turns out more positive than if I would have pushed or said no. Giving a girl the freedom to say no and reject you I think is good, not only does she feel comfortable and it makes the relationship more open, but it also shows again that you aren't needy.

Good blog indeed.

To be honest, getting a girlfriend doesn't have anything to do with all that stuff

Either:
scenario 1: You live out your life, and bump into this chick whose personality matches yours so well that whatever you do and whoever you are is just already so damn perfect for her. Get together

scenario 2: You have to work on it a little bit here, but it stays simple. You ought to have at least ONE friend who knows a lot of girls around him. Call him up and tell him about how you want a girlfriend. He'll set you up

In scenario 2, you'll probably get burned on the first try. Your friend might make a little drinking gathering involving guys and girls who want the same thing, and you might have a hell of a time. He might bring you clubbing. In any case, he'll correct what's wrong about you. Listen to him, and follow his advice.

A little preview of what he'll probably say:
1. Improve your dress: old-fashionned trainers and simple hoodies isn't gonna get a girl to look at you. Wear casual but smart, like a blazer over a v-neck white plain t-shirt, Armani jeans, leather belt, All-star converse shoes. Cardigans and collar shirts work too. Even simpler, Ralph-Lauren Polo short-sleeves are great. Wear a nice watch.

2. Improve your style: shave, brush your teeth, use facial cleanser to increase skin quality, use toner, lotion. It not only smells good but also improves your skin quality like hell, and girls crave feeling guys' faces (only the face ... ? heheh) (actually girls and guys aren't that very different you know ..... ) Stylize your hair.

3. Smell good: wear perfume. Find one that suits you. There's a lot out there. Hugo Boss is among the favourites, but you also have Yves St Laurent, Gucci, Ck, Armani

4. Don't get drunk faster than her: Have fun while drinking. Crack jokes. Play games, tell interesting stories

All of the tips mentionned above is, before anything, a kind of respect to the girl you are approaching. Would you want some ugly, strangely dressed, sweat-smelling, pimple-faced freak of a girl to approach you and bore the hell out of you by babbling on an on about some bland topic? Well, it's the same thing with girls. Pay respect to their interest in guys, please.

And, as soon as you get your girl, then things will just work naturally. Don't worry too much about it. After all, it's just two human beings meeting together, right ?
And don't be afraid of making mistakes. Your grow by making mistakes, by getting burned.

Good Luck !

Did anyone else answer "no" when they saw the title? Girls can be a pain in the ass to deal with. They're fucking nuts. Not all of them, but enough where its a valid concern.

Most assuredly it doesn't hurt to present yourself well dressed and well groomed, but as soon as you open your (collective) mouth and come off as a dumb fuck, any "hot chick" worth having would laugh in your face. Intelligence is extremely attractive.

What I totally agree with in the OP is that a man should be confident without being cocky; unfortunately, according to some of the responses, some men can't differentiate between the two.

Both are important, but in slightly different ways. Obviously, all the mental stuff, personality/intelligence, etc, is far more important in the long run, and will be what really holds a relationship together.

Looks, however, will get you noticed from across the room.

Yep. Need the bait, and that's why presentation is so important.

That's why you don't get girls ^-^ ♥
Just kidding~!!! ♥♥♥

My take on this topic: be nice to her and then ignore her. But not like flat out ignore her to her face. "Forget" to text back and be "too busy" to pick up her calls, every now and then
It makes you seem interested, but distant and mysterious... it drives a girl crazy.

...But then again, girls are fcking crazy.

Yeah, it drives a girl crazy because she thinks you're not interested. If you're not interested, she'll get moody around you, and usually give up.
If you're interested in a girl, tell her. :/ Playing games with her is going to make her hate you. ;o


You keep giving advice on how to be the guy that girls always say they're looking for but never end up with even though they know 10 of them.

If anyone has any friends who are girls on facebook then you might have noticed a trend of girls "liking" pages that read like this "love her, hold her, kiss her but if you make her fall then catch her." Kinda off topic but I just wanted to say that those things piss me off to no end because I'd be more than happy to do all those things but in reality the girl wouldn't give two shits about it. Even though they profess to like these traits they just end up being hypocritical.

Is it just me, or is anybody else getting really tied of these "how to get girls" threads? I mean come on, you're telling other guys how to get girls over the internet. Seriously?

I'm not saying any of this is wrong. Hell, following the advice word-for-word will probably land you a girlfriend. Great. Here's the catch...

If you need information like this passed to you from random people over the internet then you're not ready for a relationship. I'm a pretty firm believer in dating solely when you've got the ability to stand up on your own two feet.

The problem here is if you don't have the ability to read women ( to some extent ) then following this thread isn't going to get you anywhere. Sure, maybe you'll get a girlfriend and FINALLY feel the warmth of a vagina but you won't survive the rest of the relationship.

There is no magical formula to get and keep a woman. You have the be able to read her. Your confidence and stoicism will only carry you so far. Basically, every single one of these threads is teaching guys how to cheese instead of learn how to actually play.

I wish I controlled the internet, because fuck, I'd shut down all of these threads.

@ Abductedonut: You know what, people have the rights to get help, be it over the internet, or anywhere else. What is all this harshness about ? I sure am thankful as hell you don't own the internet, and I hope for god's sake you don't become a politician; there are enough morons wielding too much power as is now.

@decafchicken What ? Girls are nuts ? How more stereotpyical and generalized can you get ?
Remember that the sole reason you are there staring at your screen and reading this is because women exist in this world. Pay a minimum of respect to them.
There is so much you can learn through a relationship with a girl. I've learned so much from my exes, and I respect them even now. I just think you've been dating girls with perhaps low conscience and maturity, and that it might be time for you to change your taste toward the type of girls you meet, so that you can find the right one for you.

Girls are nuts. It's true. Read the "lol women" blog. Doesn't mean we don't like them anyways.

I actually agree with everything Abductedonut said. Having and keeping a quality girlfriend requires maturity as the number 1 thing, and I think threads like these try to persuade a guy into acting like someone they're not...

Hell, I still get the impression that half the people here miss meals because they're too lazy to stock their fridge with groceries every week, let alone press the 2 minute button on their microwave. Bachelor frog central. If you can't take care of yourself, what are the chances of you taking care of someone else? I think he said it perfectly with his analogy about cheesing. Winning a game with cheese and getting a girlfriend are similar, keeping her happy in the relationaship and winning a best of 7 is another. The moment she says yes, your fucked and its downhill until you can handle something of a respectable life for yourself. And the teamliquid Anons can't teach you that.

honestly, having a gf is overrated. every single person i know in a relationship is miserable and just complains about how they want to fuck other people. the problem is, they're more scared of being single than they are of being fed up with their shitty relationship. especially when you are young, you should live it up. there is so much more to life than other relationships and dating.
