i love how you, batin, are the number one authority on what women want, and strangely it seems to coincide with what you believe yourself to be.

real (and i emphasize real) women do not want loud, over confident men.
Being confident is fine, but if that is one of your flaunting points, then it makes you a pompous jackass.

I myself, would go toward a shy or quiet guy. plenty of those men, are the best men once you get them to open up, and they are usually very very intelligent.

Loud mouth player types want nothing but ass.

Actually, you read me quite well except for the loud mouth part. I prefer a lot of ass from several different girls than a relationship with just one.

ummm no, it's everywhere...seen it at total dumps of bars, and i've seen it at exclusive night clubs

i have yet to find a bar in the tri-state area where there isn't some asshole of a guy who's so fukin ugly, you'd swear he's decomposing...yet he'd still get the chic

go figure...like i said Adam, you should come down here and see for yerself

altho my roomie did score a nice girl's number last Sat b/c his timing was perfect...and as usual, i was the wingman...one of the chic's friends asked who he was with, and he pointed me out and said i was a real cool guy and she should talk to me...know what her response was??? "is he tall??? i'll only talk to a guy if he's as tall as i am (bout 6'1, and i'm about 5'10)"

don't take this the wrong way

but i can imagine, only from observing a couple of your posts mind you, seeing you at a bar just knocking on every drunk guy who was able to pull a chick with whatever b.s. he was kicking

I am the quiet sort and it works for me. If the girl looks interested (read- bodylanguage) then I will open up. No need to make a fool out of myself.

oookay... here's my perspective on that, being a girl & all.

when i go out to clubs or bars or whatever, i very rarely approach guys... it's not that i'm "shy" or whatever, i just don't think that sort of environment is all that great for meeting new people. i'm usually just there to hang out with my friends & have a good time.

sooo... if i'm talkin to a guy, it's generally because he approached me. here's the bottom line: in all my years of going out to clubs & bars, i can honestly say that 99% of guys who come up & talk to me (and my friends, for that matter) turn out to be complete assholes/douchebags/etc.

get it?? nice girls talk to retards by default, cuz the NICE GUYS aren't talkin!!

...*sigh*...

So where do you go to meet guys? The nice guys almost never talk because we're at the bar to drink with the boys, if a girl walks up, then cool, if not, we still got drunk. My problem is that it seems to me no matter where I can think of, gym, grocery store, bar/club, parties, coffee shop, anywhere except maybe school, or a low key get together with few friends...a guy who walks up would seem like a douchebag to everyone around, including the girl he's talking to which is the one person I don't want to look like a douchebag to.

So maybe the nice girls need to start talking to the guys at a table enjoying a drink, or over in the corner talking amongst themselves or doing HW at the coffee shop...

This is your basic chick mentality. 99% of the guys (whom she doesn't know) who come up & talk to her in a bar are "douchebags". Pretty much what she's saying is that she believes the only people in that bar who aren't douchebags are the ones that are personally known to her from some other context. In reality we know that there is probably no distinction between the guys who she knows as acquaintances and the strangers who approach her in a bar. BUT THAT'S NOT HOW CHICKS THINK.

This means that unless you're out to hook up with sloppy drunken skanky ho's you'll have to meet them and make their acquaintance in some other context. Then you take 'em out for dinner & drinks.

BTW: There is an upside to the kind of thinking Mesmerize is displaying here. Once you've hooked up with a girl and she becomes your girl, she'll be a lot less likely to leave you for another strange guy who comes along. It takes a while to dismantle a normal chick's defenses and resistance to hooking up. But, once you do, you can be assured that it won't be that easy for other guys to get in her pant's - unless, of course, she's a ho.

that's not at all what i'm saying -- don't go twistin my words around now. i KNOW there are nice guys out there, including in bars & clubs. i'm just saying that, from MY experience, these aren't the guys who usually approach girls.

and i'm basing the 99% asshole-rate on the usual behavior of guys who talk to me & my friends in bars... it's the things they say, the way they handle themselves, the way they treat other people... and often these qualities are made worse by alcohol -- another reason why i don't think clubs & bars are good places to try to meet people!



This means that unless you're out to hook up with sloppy drunken skanky ho's you'll have to meet them and make their acquaintance in some other context. Then you take 'em out for dinner & drinks.

that's always a good idea, really

guys that are too loud get clowned on... guys that are too nice get walked on... guys that are too quiet never talk....

the key is doinf what you have to do... not every chick is the same, no two scenarios whe talkin to a girl are the same. there is no "key" to getting ass, you just do what ya gotta do, and either you get ass or you dont.

usually i just meet guys through other friends, at school, normal stuff like that. honestly, the stuff you're saying about feelin dumb going up to talk to a girl... that's what's wrong with nice guys today!! :P a girl (a non-skanky normal one, at least) isn't gonna think you're a douchebag unless you ACT like a one. if a guy came up to me in public & seemed genuinely nice, and had something intelligent to say... even if it was a lil awkward, i'd think that was really cool. (actually i met a guy that way at Best Buy once ) even if i wasn't really interested, it would still be flattering & i definitely wouldn't think "wow what a douchebag..."

at the same time, all girls are different & that might not always work. u gotta take chances like that though!!

and yea nice girls should be takin the initiative too... i'm workin on that

Y'all taking my thread south again. Confidence is the key, period. I said shy guys get nowhere. Be confident and good things will happen. I never said a guy should be loud or approach any girl he feels like approaching. I said the guy should be confident, not cocky, not come up with pickup lines while he's drunk. These were things y'all just threw in there.
