It this works, you know you're going home.

F*ck me if I'm wrong, but do I know you?

Finds somebody that truly completes you as a person..... Find someone that you can completely give your heart to without fear of it being broken..... Once you find this person don't ever let her go or do anything that would screw up the relationship.... don't ask me how I know this......:rolleyes:

Be yourself. Have the self confidence to talk to a chick that might be a gazillion times hotter then you think you can get. Stand up for yourself, let her do the talking, and listen attentively. Do all this and you will prosper.

Rookies -

Just don't show her the bag of lye, the duct tape and the spade in your trunk and you are golden.

Women love to laugh. And they like to talk about dreams and aspiration. But the easy tip is this:

Cook her dinner. Clean your place first, and perhaps get some fresh flowers. Learn to make a sauce. Drink white wine and chat while cooking. Then watch Casablanca.

In Los Angeles, there is a radio talk show host named "Tom Leykis" who uses this particular subject to educate men and women regarding dating. The advice is very creative, but only works for bedding women, not marrying them.

http://blowmeuptom.com/

His show is sydicated throughout the country as well (97.1 FM in LA). On Friday, he has "Leykis 101" which compiles the best advice.

Some advice from his show........

Before going out on the prowl, get an ATM slip with a very high balance printed on it. There are some companies that create fake ones. When you meet a hottie, write your phone number on the blank side and give it to her. She will see the balance and if she is a "gold digger" she will be all over you.

Before taking a date out to dinner, eat a large meal. Take her to a nice restaurant, but order only a salad. Tell her that you are trying to eat "healthy." Most women will be consciencious of their appearance and do the same. This will save your pocketbook.

He has some very good advice for singles. I don't think it works for married people though.

Basic basic basic. Everybody's favorite word is their name, and everybody's favorite topic is themselves. Works like a charm.

STAY AWAY FROM CRAIG'S LIST! (intentional)
Phoenix police and others are baiting on the list and sending department members out. It is more now because of the Super Bowl Feb. 3- New England vs. Green Bay.

You forgot "After she's gone, retrieve your testes from the dixie cup on top of the fridge you put them in before she arrived."

Sheesh, Supe.;)

I gave up on understanding women ages ago.

As I have very little going for me, the only attribute that I can usually play up is a sense of humor. Get me going at the bar, and BOOM, suddenly there are hotties flanking me and sitting in my lap. I don't know how it works, I just know it works.

True story:
I spent the better part of a year trying to get past the 'good friends' stage with this young lady. After being blown off for months, I gave up. A few months later she was at a party at my house - I got a phone call from an ex - she overheard me blowing off the ex on the phone. An hour later, I was way past the 'good friends' zone and well into 'FB' zone. Pissed me off that it was that easy, actually.

Alright, do it your way. Don't listen to me.

Mule 01-14-2008 10:41 AM

Tom Leykis is cool as hell!

legion 01-14-2008 11:23 AM

Based on some of these tips, it's a wonder I ever got married.

lendaddy 01-14-2008 11:26 AM

I agree, this is a "how to score box" thread, nothing more. If you use this advice to find a wife...well, we usually catch what we're fishing for:D

BeyGon 01-14-2008 11:55 AM

I go to cooking classes with my wife every so often, ALWAYS some good looking single or freshly single women in these classes. I have tried to get some of my single friends to go but they told me they don't want a woman that can't cook. I know why they are single.

carnutzzz 01-14-2008 12:10 PM

You guys are thinking about this waaaaaay too much.

You're going to do this in a bar?? Yikes - sounds like the tenents that one might recite at the end of a manboobs support group meeting. That or Stalkers Anonymous. ;)

As noted, this is a pick-up thread. Marriage/LTR is a whole different thread.
