How can I become Smooth...
 
:cool:I have decided this is my problem in several aspects of life. If I was a smoother driver my a/x times would be faster. If I was a smoother talker I would get laid more....



So how does one become smooth...?

surflvr911sc 09-24-2009 09:12 PM

What kind of music do you normally listen to?

MysticLlama 09-24-2009 09:12 PM

By not doing things in a jerky or jittery fashion?

Geronimo '74 09-24-2009 09:13 PM

So you really didn't get laid last night, did you?.... (But I'm guessing you wanted to... :p)

To become smooth:

Sanding paper, from coarse to fine.
Shave regularly.
Change first name to "Slick"
Baby oil...
Sometimes, instead of talking, shut up, listen and smile.
Feel at ease with yourself (propbably the most important piece of advice I can give you)

(in random order)

Look further ahead in both your corners and conversations and figure out how you want them both to end before you start them, better yet think two corners and two conversations ahead.
Less is more

Its not about talking the talk...its about walking the walk. Want people to want to be around/with you? Take the attitude (AND believe it at your core) that you are a happening guy who enjoys his life, and friends (including women) can enjoy it with you/come along for the ride if they so choose. If they choose not to its their loss, not yours. And you could care less about their choice.

Be confident in who you are but not cocky. The key difference between the two is one carries with it an element of hubris while the other has an element of humility.

As far as driving...slow down to go faster.

It's a Zen thing.

Go slower in life... actually move slower so you can observe what is going on around you. In some cases, try to imagine you are moving in slow motion.

Read more.

Meditate/pray more.

Don't rush to fill "awkward silences" when you are talking with people... listen to people.

Play video games less or eliminate them totally for a couple of months.

See a movie that moves slowly and doesn't rush things and gives you time to "feel" what the characters are feeling and thinking... like "Meet Joe Black."

It won't happen overnight, but if you keep working on it, you'll get there.

Along John's advice...there's a reason you have two ears and only one mouth.

porsche4life 09-24-2009 09:34 PM

I don't talk that much(face to face). Just my problem is I never seem to say the right things..

dentist90 09-24-2009 09:36 PM

The answer lies within...

Welcome to my world. :D

I am trying to get us help Dave. I think that was a contributor in my failed relationship. Among lots of other things.

Schumi 09-24-2009 09:42 PM

Listen to lots of Ginuwine.

I just checked off this goal three weeks ago: "Screw while having stereo play 'In those jeans' in the background"

This probably is highly subjective depending on the girl, however.

Dueller 09-24-2009 09:46 PM

Ok Sid...give us the 3 reasons your relationship failed including one thing you said "wrong."

We'll overlook you are 17-18 and that relationships at this age are doomed to fail...it is totally normal and should be viewed as a growing/learning experience. Relationships at such a tender age are part of a pretty steep learning curve...much like your autoX learning curve now.

nostatic 09-24-2009 09:49 PM

odds are you'll finally get smooth when you're too old to make the most of it

porsche4life 09-24-2009 09:50 PM

Ok Jim, Part of it was the fact that when she would get pissed at me because I said or didn't say something I couldn't say what she wanted to hear and when I said nothing it just compounded the problem, Another problem was the distance. College has us 2.5 hours apart. The third was I had given up on the relationship due to 1 +2. So I gotsta find me some poon right here.
