This is why I usually don't try to explain semi-complicated concepts to girls. I just let them be and change the subject. Can you please explain to me how this isn't offensive? Because I've shown a few of my friends at work and they agree it's offensive.
I think it's wonderful that you think it's horrible advice, but I've said the same thing to other people, and I've gotten different responses. That's why I posted it.

I don't get how it's offensive at all? In general girls are too preoccupied with meaningless things and their emotional attachment to such things to truly grasp 'semi-complicated concepts.'
Though I suppose a 20 year old girl who has only had 2 relationships posting on the internet trying to get replies like 'Wow great blog, inspirational advice!' from guys who've had 0 relationships (besides with their hand and perhaps a world of warcraft 'girl') isn't really a complicated concept. So I take that back. Despite your replies to me I know you deep down you understand the fact that your whole blog was really just a guide for a guy on how to pick up a girl like you.
It's okay to make blog posts merely to get attention. I do it all the time!
And don't get me wrong...the smart girls with the wits to understand complicated things are the ones that tickle my fancy.

I'm pretty sure the 'Friend Zone' is what happens if a male acts like a completely asexual being in the company of a female acquaintance. I would think so. o_O

That's the worst way to do it. If you're not 100% confident yet, and you're getting there, you do the best with what you have. Being honest and being who you are is what a girl will want. I don't want someone to pretend they're confident, and pretend they're awesome. I want someone to know they're pretty confident, and know they're pretty awesome. So will other girls. IMO this is the only part of your thread of real value. Girls want real-ness no matter what level it comes on.
It was probably me that said fake your confidence, and I 100% stand by it. However, I worded it to go with what the OP of the other thread was saying. Basically, the world tends to pass by the people who have no confidence. And how are you supposed to improve confidence? Be more confident, but it isn't that easy. Doing confident things is going to be completely out of your comfort zone, totally unnatural, but you are gonna need to fake it (looking calm, cool, composed, as confidence goes) until your confidence becomes natural. I'd think of it more like making an active effort to make your confidence a part of you. Very important adaptation in my opinion. I think you were mistaking confidence with being conceited (unattractive trait). Anyways, confidence is difficult, but sometimes you just gotta grow some balls and go do what you gotta do.
EDIT: Confidence should emphasize/complement your base personality rather than change it.

I'm sorry, when did I say I only had 2 serious relationships? I've had more than 2 relationships, but only 2 of them were serious. No, this is not a guide on how to pick up a girl like me. But, I used my experiences as an example. If I wanted to post a blog on how to pick up a girl like me..
How to pick up a girl like me; -Spend money on me -Tell me i'm cute -Make a move or GTFO Not exactly the same in any way, is it? Durrr. I don't make blog posts to get attention. If I wanted to do that, I wouldn't be posting here.
Just a heads up: The smart girls who tickle your fancy won't want you either. Just sayin'.

-Spend money on me
How much do u go for?

I just wanted to know because I find it makes all the difference in terms of talking about "serious" relationships. How long were each of your serious relationships? Your definition as "serious" is probably much different from mine at the age of 26. I guess, however, that if you are directing your advice to teenage boys looking to talk to young girls then I think your advice is very misleading. You depict the girls as being mature and understanding, but in general 17-20 year olds are girls, not women.

They'll know not to listen to me ever again and I'm alright with that. :U

Your pithy comebacks don't really work well when you're talking to a person of Rekrul's notoriety. You may be thinking "Well I don't care who he is, I'm just speaking the truth!" but the fact is that you're just completely wrong. Rekrul have lived more in the last 10 years than most people will in their lifetimes. And he could buy your mother.

So, saying things like, "She'll understand" seems pretty bogus to me, but, you know it's fine and I'm sure some kids out there will take this to heart, but never manage to do anything with it.

ROFL, stop feeding the Rekrul, he can do this all day. Actually keep going, this is entertaining.

This needs to be stickied or be an auto-first-reply to any girl blog on TL.

TL;DR : Grow balls ( and you bank account too , maybe even more than your balls).
