Okay, all you nice guys out there being good and respectful towards women, and yet getting the raw end of the deal, the short end of the stick, you can all take solace in one thing, one day your going to be the guy that the girl finally settles down with and marries.

At least after she's had sex with everyone else.

yeah, I'm waiting for that to happen for a couple of girls, but 'everyone else' seems to be multiplying ... probably because of all the sex :D

Unless you give up on the "nice guy" thing first. Or unless you're me, in which case women physically can't find you attractive.

"There are, it has been said, two types of people in the world. There are those who, when presented with a glass that is exactly half full, say: this glass is half full. And then there are those who say: this glass is half empty. The world belongs, however, to those who can look at the glass and say: What's up with this glass? Excuse me? Excuse me? This is my glass? I don't think so. My glass was full! And it was a bigger glass! And at the other end of the bar the world is full of the other type of person, who has a broken glass, or a glass that has been carefully knocked over (usually by one of the people calling for a larger glass), or who had no glass at all, because they were at the back of the crowd and had failed to catch the barman's eye."

Hey, women think I'm nice, women think I'm rich, and women think I'm at least decently attractive, and women think I dress well. Know why I don't have a girlfriend?

Because women think I'm gay.

That's the biggest downside to being "the nice guy".

you just need to find the ones who want to turn you straight with their extremely skillful femenine wiles and let them think its slowly working. also if you want to dump them you have the perfect excuse all set up.

Both. And you're most probably right, unfortunately the only thing that'll get that opinion changed is for me to find a girlfriend, which would require more confidence. What can be done? And don't tell me to just "get over it" or anything similar, if it was that easy I wouldn't be saying this.

What was that website I saw a while back relating to this? Ahh, yes. I remember now, it was this one (http://www.heartless-bitches.com/). I would probably fit into the "nice guys" category you self-martyrising wussies call yourselves. However, I also recognise that if you want something in this world, you've got to fecking take it, or someone else will. If there's a girl I want to go out with, I either impress her and ask her out, or I don't actually want to, or, more likely, I don't deserve to. I find myself in that dilemma right now in my cowardice for asking a girl out. However, if I can't even get the guts to ask her, then I don't deserve even a chance. Same thing goes for people who just assume they should be attractive. So you're a "nice guy". So what? It's not the girls who are doing anything wrong--that'd be you.

I think that all nice guys should go and read that Terry Pratchett quote several times.

you need to cultivate a devil may care attitude, an "i may be an ugly brute but what's it to you" sneer. you can't make youreself seem beatiful, but you can make yourself seem strong and self confident. it won't get women failing at your feet, but if you don't seem so needy it scares them away, i bet you'll find a few that are interested.

I like nice guys, i always have. If a guy treats me like crap, he's gone. My number one criteria when looking for a guy to date is that he's kind. Often the guys i like are ones who seem, on the surface, to be bad guys, either because they have tattoos, or ride motorcyles, or simply because their opinions and ideals deviate from the norm. If people looked past the surface though, looked past the stereotypes, they would see they are actually sweet.

that's why nice guys need to cultivate a bit of a bad boy exterior. if you seem to ernest and puppy dog eager it puts alot of woman off. if you are a nice guy, keep yourself true on the inside, but a bit of bluff and bluster on the outside probably won't hurt. also a bit of ink can help, it can turn a nerd into an intellectual rebel in just a few hour of pain and a few hundred bucks. just pick your ink well, some trendy flash or kanji will just make you look like a frat boy poser.

Or perhaps he could just become desirable? It's not cultivating a certain attitude, it's fully expressing oneself.

Yes, but, you see those aren't "nice guys". Those are kind guys. Nice guys never have tattoos or ride motorcycles or anything like that. The coolest guy I know is like that, with a mohawk and all, though many in the more socially reticent groups don't realise just how interesting those people can be. Nice guys are just egocentric and arrogant.

"Bad boy exterior"? Spending HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS on changing your outward appearance to attract girls? 'Intellectual rebel'?

Fuck no. This advice makes my frontal lobes hurt.

Ravenclaw, if you consider taking this advice, keep in mind it will attract shallow girls who you know wouldn't like you otherwise (you'd be admitting it by changing your looks to attract them). If you want a girl who'll like you for what you *seem* rather than who you *are*... Well, my advice would be to get yourself a blow-up doll. That's less lame by several degrees.

I too have noticed the girls who date psychopathic creeps, well here's what psychopathic creeps have that you don't, an appearance of confidence.
it's simple baboon politics, alpha males act confident, do a good threat display and they run the troop and get to have sex with all the girl baboons. sit and watch some monkeys at the zoo or some chimps or baboons or gorillas, you'll see!
just act like a confident monkey until you get the chick, then you can go ahead and be nice later.
some stupid girls like bad boys and angst too. as a female I dont' get it, because it is STUPID, who needs all that?!!!
Just act that way around the girl of your dreams, if she seems a little stupid.

As I've probably said a thousand times before on threads like this, if you act like women should be attracted to you, then they will be attracted to you.

Hmm http://www.somethingpositive.net/sp02142004.shtml (and the following strips) should be considered. Face it, they might seem like a creep, but you don't actually know what goes on in private. Most women are not morons, and they date who they want to (unless we're talking high school here, but you shouldn't really expect to get lots of women in high school). Yeah, some boyfriends are creeps, but some might act like it and be ok. I know a lot of nice guys in relationships, I know a lot of beautiful girls in good relationships. Unfortunately, right now I'm not in a relationship, but I'm willing to admit that there is a fair amount of fault on my part. I really need to make more of an effort on my appearance and work up being more confident (as well as trying to avoid uncannily having crushes on girls who are already in relatonships).

Honestly, you don't have to pretend your someone you are not, but you do need to make more of an effort about how you look, and you do need to show a bit more confidence.

But why are you taking advice from me? I've only been in one relationship. If you're truly a nice guy, I'm sure you'll find someone eventually.

bah, what more important than attracting a mate, if you aren't willing to spend a couple hundred bucks then you are hardly putting forth the required effort.

its not just the exterior though, you're right. its a matter of reinventing yourself as someone you like and others will to. if your not happy with who you are now, make yourself into someone you can be happy with. reinventing yourself as a bit of a bad boy is actually a fairly easy transformation, everyone has that side to themselves its just a matter of letting go of some of your inhibitions.

sure you may be a bit of a poser at first as you are attempting the change but you can grow into your new persona. we all wear masks in this world, its a matter of picking one you enjoy wearing, and others respond to in the manner you wish them to.

Nope. I've heard this ALL the time. 'Act like an alpha male'. The trouble here is that we're NOT monkeys or gorillas or wolves. We're big lovable men, full of egocentrism, hope, love, pride, enigmas, anger, sadness, and faith. You have to rise above this lowest common denominator madness you see around you.

You see, women want men with skills: nunchuck skills, bowhunting skills, computer hacking skills. Anything else these people try to tell you leaves no hope alive for the future of the human race.

I'm not a nice guy anymore, but if I were, the prospect of marriage would not console. I mean come on - marriage. It's like a lottery, except instead of money, it's a lifetime of misery and regret. And that's if you WIN.

While I admire your principles, let's be real, girls change stuff to atract and keep guys interested. it's a pain, but it's done, so turnabout is not wrong or imoral, and anyway if it's the hot looking beautiful girls you want, you're being shallow too. I can't stand guys lying about that stuff, the truth is no guy is going to date a girl who is fat and ugly if he has any choice and guess what, he shouldn't! Just from an evolutionary standard that's dumb. You want a healthy girl who will have healthy children. You don't want to spend your young life with someone ugly. I'm not ashamed to admit that is something I would not do either. It can go too far, but it's unrealistic to think physical appearance is unimportant. When you go out for a job interview you odn't change your looks to get the job? You never looked at 'Dress for Success' by that wanker John Molloy? c'mon give me a break!
Someone who is ugly and who smells bad might not be healthy and someone who lets themself look ugly and smell bad, is either depressed or not all that bright. Depression can be inherited. Bright happy people tend to raise bright happy kids. Of course all the girls I know are sternly TOLD how stupid their 'bad boy' fetish is. I make fun of those girls. I know the value of a guy who is nice. But I'm also over 50 and seen what a problem 'bad boys' are for marraige.

You see, women want men with skills: nunchuck skills, bowhunting skills, computer hacking skills. Anything else these people try to tell you leaves no hope alive for the future of the human race.

Keep hope alive.

Any dating advice that doesn't come from Napoleon Dynamite?

It's always seemed to me that if you really want to find out what kind of guy a girl likes, listen to what kind of guy she complains about. Sure you hear girls saying things like "my boyfriend likes that stupid _____" or "he tells the stupidest jokes about _____" Listen to the top 10 complaints list and act just like the guy they sound like they hate and they'll be falling all over you. They'll be angry at you a lot, but they'll follow you anywhere.

You never hear complaints like "my boyfriend is a broke loser" or "my boyfriend is so quiet." Why don't you hear those complaints? Because she won't go out with him.

Hmm http://www.somethingpositive.net/sp02142004.shtml (and the following strips) should be considered. Face it, they might seem like a creep, but you don't actually know what goes on in private. Most women are not morons, and they date who they want to (unless we're talking high school here, but you shouldn't really expect to get lots of women in high school). Yeah, some boyfriends are creeps, but some might act like it and be ok. I know a lot of nice guys in relationships, I know a lot of beautiful girls in good relationships. Unfortunately, right now I'm not in a relationship, but I'm willing to admit that there is a fair amount of fault on my part. I really need to make more of an effort on my appearance and work up being more confident (as well as trying to avoid uncannily having crushes on girls who are already in relatonships).

Honestly, you don't have to pretend your someone you are not, but you do need to make more of an effort about how you look, and you do need to show a bit more confidence.

But why are you taking advice from me? I've only been in one relationship. If you're truly a nice guy, I'm sure you'll find someone eventually.


Know what? That being attracted to t he already attached thing is stupid. I know of a guy I kind of liked, nice guy many ways so far as I could see, but he only liked women who were spoken for. He wound up breaking up someone else's marriage. No kids involved, thank God, but he got her pregnant while she was still married to the other guy! eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek! I don't think that's too cool. I'm not saying you'd go to that extreme.
Probably for you, it's that you really are scared to face an unattached girl.

Who, my high school gf or the hypothetical woman? I probably won't marry my ex gf, simply because we would probably kill each other within the first 5 years. That and I have no clue where she is. As for the hypothetical woman, I seriously doubt it. Especially since I'm not so keen on the whole marriage bit anyway which is possibly influenced by the fact that my parents have been together for 20 years and they never got married. Although I suppose they are married by common law by now.

F*ck em all, I say, in every sense of the word.

Ye gods, if women want the arseholes let 'em have them! Blood tells, and sooner or later the you'll all be good looking, horribly aggressive and brain dead slaves to all the smart, nice people who maybe don't cultivate that 'bad boy/girl' exterior and instead get on with the whole evolution thing. Ya know, the thing that makes us more than animals?

Anyway. It ain't the whole 'why won't they date me' phenomena that really pisses me off. If you don't want to screw me, fine, whatever. I like girls who are my friends rather more than those who've tried to use me in the past. But why the hell do they freakin' persist in telling me, and those like me, all about their boyfriends and what screw ups they are? I mean, what do you want us to say - 'yes he's a dickhead, dump him?' We know that ain't gonna happen cos your tiny feminine brain is under the control of his sex pheromones. For heavens sake, instead of trying to turn a sexy bad guy nice, why not find a not-half-bad nice guy and make him sexy? I guarantee far better returns. Changing someones appearance and behaviour is a much easier task than trying to get some well built, thuggish gorilla 'who is so nice really' (bollocks :headbang: ) and turning him into someone that regards you as other than a humping toy. And instead of trying to turn nice guys bad by shaming them or making them feel inadequate, you could actually be nice about it. Who the hell knows, it might just work! :eek:

And for the record, those 'Heartless Bitches' are the greatest anti-female equality propagandists I have ever seen. I don't know whether to laugh or cry, cos they're doing far better than me any day.

Or perhaps he could just become desirable? It's not cultivating a certain attitude, it's fully expressing oneself.


Yes, but, you see those aren't "nice guys". Those are kind guys. Nice guys never have tattoos or ride motorcycles or anything like that. The coolest guy I know is like that, with a mohawk and all, though many in the more socially reticent groups don't realise just how interesting those people can be. Nice guys are just egocentric and arrogant.
And just how does that fit in with any rational interpretation of the word "nice", pray tell?

What was that website I saw a while back relating to this? Ahh, yes. I remember now, it was this one (http://www.heartless-bitches.com/). I would probably fit into the "nice guys" category you self-martyrising wussies call yourselves. However, I also recognise that if you want something in this world, you've got to fecking take it, or someone else will. If there's a girl I want to go out with, I either impress her and ask her out, or I don't actually want to, or, more likely, I don't deserve to. I find myself in that dilemma right now in my cowardice for asking a girl out. However, if I can't even get the guts to ask her, then I don't deserve even a chance. Same thing goes for people who just assume they should be attractive. So you're a "nice guy". So what? It's not the girls who are doing anything wrong--that'd be you.

I think that all nice guys should go and read that Terry Pratchett quote several times.
Although it agrees with you insofar as "if you want something, you've got to take it", the whole point of this quote is that that attitude is unpleasant, and that it is sad that the world works like that - unlike you, he is not endorsing it!

I do have advice, really. You've made this same argument again with the whole alpha-male thing. I don't know why this is hard to understand: women want men who treat them well. They want funny, smart, handsome, friendly men. Also, men typically want to be smart, funny, handsome, and friendly themselves.

See how nice this works out in my scenerio? No one has to lie, no one has to put on a false front, gals get their nice guys, nice guys get their gals and we all go home.

"There are, it has been said, two types of people in the world. There are those who, when presented with a glass that is exactly half full, say: this glass is half full. And then there are those who say: this glass is half empty. The world belongs, however, to those who can look at the glass and say: What's up with this glass? Excuse me? Excuse me? This is my glass? I don't think so. My glass was full! And it was a bigger glass! And at the other end of the bar the world is full of the other type of person, who has a broken glass, or a glass that has been carefully knocked over (usually by one of the people calling for a larger glass), or who had no glass at all, because they were at the back of the crowd and had failed to catch the barman's eye."

Alright girls. How about this?

If someone treats you with respect, but isn't completely subserviant to you. Takes time out to be with you when you are down, takes you shopping when you want, buys you flowers, drives you where-ever you want to go, but still has time for his mates. He sits by your bedside for a week in hospital after you've been in a serious car crash, and makes sure you're ok because he is genuinely worried about you. Is he a "nice guy", who should be dumped because he's insecure, or is he someone who cares about you?

Well, I only made an argument once, but that won't work. Women don't want the kind of guy they say they want. It's something weird with pretty much every mammal on the face of the Earth. Females object to the only kind of male that they'll mate with.

In the animal kingdom this works out fine. Females end up forcing males to breed for persistence, strength, stamina or whatever that particular species needs.

Listen to how people always talk about the psychology of romance in terms of metaphors and intangibles. "you can't help the way you feel about someone," "there just wasn't that spark" or "there was such chemistry between them."

Women are choosey, but they have no real idea what ideal they are appealing to to make their choices.

Men aren't choosey unless they think they are in a position where they think that they can get one girl or the other but not both, and then the choice usually comes down to which is easier to get.

You may think I'm over generalizing but these experiments have been done. Researchers have sent both men and women, who surveys said were attractive, and both were sent into singles locations and said something along the lines of "I'd like to buy you a drink, chat for a bit, then take you home and have sex with you." Virtually 100% of the men said yes and the women said no.

Which is not to say that women won't go home with a guy they just met. Plenty of them will, but they'll insist on pretending that sex isn't why, hence the old trope of "come up to see my etchings." Just like lions insist on a male that can fight for a long time, or gazelles insist on a male that can run for a long time, human females select for a sort of emotional persistence. The ability to be unfazed by appearant rejection. They'll say that men who don't measure up in this capacity are too insecure ("I told him I didn't want to go out with him and he stopped asking, what a wimp!") or some other such thing. This seems to be especially true in America where persistence is considered to be the single biggest determinate of any sort of success, more than any sort of talent or intelligence.

"They set great store by keeness. If only because actual merit was so rare."
Terry Pratchett -- The Truth

This also means that trying to find out whether or not a woman is interested in you already is usually a waste of time. They won't let you know, and nature didn't design you to be choosey anyway. I once had a stalker who was a girl that I had a crush on and who, I thought, wouldn't give me the time of day. You just have to put yourself out there and learn the art of the snappy comeback just in case you're shot down. People can be just as impressed by resiliance in the face of failure as they can by success and getting shot down gracefully by one might earn you a chance with another.

think of the bright side. when you are married to her, and she says "no honey, not tonight, i have a headache....."
you can reply" oh really? and did you have a headache when you screwed any of the 54 guys you have been with????????????huh??????"
then you have one up on her.


And you expect that to get her to fuck you? Ahh, young one you have much to learn. Just say "ok, do you want a tylenol?" this will score brownie points so the next time you want to do anything, out of the ordinary, just remind her and she'll feel obliged. It's worked wonders.

Anyway. It ain't the whole 'why won't they date me' phenomena that really pisses me off. If you don't want to screw me, fine, whatever. I like girls who are my friends rather more than those who've tried to use me in the past. But why the hell do they freakin' persist in telling me, and those like me, all about their boyfriends and what screw ups they are? I mean, what do you want us to say - 'yes he's a dickhead, dump him?' We know that ain't gonna happen cos your tiny feminine brain is under the control of his sex pheromones. For heavens sake, instead of trying to turn a sexy bad guy nice, why not find a not-half-bad nice guy and make him sexy? I guarantee far better returns. Changing someones appearance and behaviour is a much easier task than trying to get some well built, thuggish gorilla 'who is so nice really' (bollocks :headbang: ) and turning him into someone that regards you as other than a humping toy. And instead of trying to turn nice guys bad by shaming them or making them feel inadequate, you could actually be nice about it. Who the hell knows, it might just work! :eek:

And for the record, those 'Heartless Bitches' are the greatest anti-female equality propagandists I have ever seen. I don't know whether to laugh or cry, cos they're doing far better than me any day.

If there's a girl I want to go out with, I either impress her and ask her out, or I don't actually want to, or, more likely, I don't deserve to.
THAT'S the problem! You're trying to impress her, which is a sign of insecurity. Girls are repelled by insecurity. Therefore, trying to impress girls repells them.

Try this; relax and be yourself. Act the way around her the way you would around any of your buddies. Stop being insecure around her and she will like you.

I like the Tylenol idea, but this last statement is just dead wrong. It is a view of how the world should be rather then how it is. One of the reasons girls like jerks is because the sex is mindblowingly good. Add that to a lack of insecurity, and you've got instand "panties down" action.

By lowering your standards and just taking whatever comes along, you are in a mentality of scarcity. Guess what, there are literally BILLIONS of men and women out there.

I guess I am one of those "good guys", respect women and all that.
I can't count the times I have had to listen to the life storys of my friends and see them cry etc. and thees are "bad guys" and they tell me stuff you would not belive because they trust me and they know they can.
So I am allways the trusted friend.
I cant dance and that has hurt me often when with a girl at a bar or something like that and I am not a big joker or fighter so my question is what the hell do guys like me have to do to get the girl they like?

Seriously, have you ever thought that you're lusting after these girls the way they're lusting after the "bad boys"?

If there isn't a spark there on her end, it probably won't happen - or if it does, it certainly won't last. So honestly, what you need to do is stop wasting time with these girls who don't know how awesome you are and open yourself up for real opportunities!

If your (well not yours, OM) wife says "no honey, I have a headache" you should really start thinking why your wife doesn't want to have sex with you. She's obviously not very pleased with it. (of course there are moments when you just don't feel like it at all, but headache is rarely the reason. Sex is a good painkiller)

Don't try to impress her.
Don't ACT like anything that you aren't.
Don't make the entire focus her, that makes women uncomfortable.
Don't try to buy her affection.
Don't listen to her life story, that's a friend's job, not a lover's.

Any guy who becomes friends with a woman just to try to eventually sleep with her is simply using that as a form of manipulation. It's a really unsuccessful form of manipulation, but that's what it is. This is simply an extention of the nice guy syndrome. Guys who act "nice" in order to try to get to a girl. Acting by its very nature is putting up a front that is not representative what the person is truly like. That's called "deception". Deception is a form of manipulation.

ok this is a question to all (women). my thinking (and that of a few of my friends... blokes btw) is that for a man to go up to a woman, in a bar, say, and chat her up simply (and openly) for the purpose of getting laid is surley insulting and derogatory to the woman? is this true? do women really prefer a stranger to meet them in the club, openly seduce and try and get laid (that night or, if not, soon), or would women prefer to grow a relationship out of friendship? does it change with the woman? myself and my friends think the latter - largely as the former is ultimatley shallow and, in a way, insulting to both the man and the woman.
i act "nice", but not just to get to a girl - i try to act 'nice' to everybody. if i like a girl, and would like our relationship to go further (as with one particularily lovely girl on my course...) i won't treat her with any less (or more) respect than i do everybody. i do try and not 'manipulate' things - or myself - by pretending to be something i'm not. don't get me wrong, im not gonna make no effort at all, but i would like her to like me for myself. is that a really really stupid stance to take?? :confused:

I don't think so.

I'd feel like crap if a guy just came up to me and made it obvious that he only wants to have sex with me. I mean, does he think I'm a hooker?!?

If you're talking to a woman, as long as you are acting like yourself, you'll do find. If you are acting in a way that is not congruous to who you really are, it that comes off that you are not being truthful somehow. That you have a hidden agenda.

As far as "trying to get laid" goes. For men, sexual attraction is binary. You're either sexually attracted or not, there is almost no in between. It's either yes or no. For women, sexual attraction is more like a volume knob. You have to slowly turn that knob up until she feels that it's OK to have sex. It's fine if she knows your motives, but you have to walk with her through the whole process of turning that knob up. The way you turn that knob is to make her feel something, and keep your cool.

Women are emotional creatures. The worst feeling a woman can have for you is apathy. As long as you make her feel SOMETHING, you will stand out and she will pay attention to you.

To keep your cool, all you have to do is not act insecure. Women will test you to see if you really are cool, or if you're just faking it. If she says something like, "You're a jerk," she wants to see if you're going to appologize, flip out or give some sort of cool response. A cool response would be something like giving a half smile and saying something like, "Thanks for noticing."

If you're "acting" nice, and turning the conversation and all your focus directly on the woman, that's a sign of insecurity and neediness. You're not confident enough to just talk to her like she's one of your friends. It's also showing that you desperately want her attention and approval. If you need someone else's approval, what does that say about your self worth?

That's your problem, you don't sound like you have self worth. Try talking to a random woman just for the sake of having a fun conversation. Go into it thinking something like, "I don't want her number, I just want to have a couple of laughs." You can't fake it either. If you think that, but don't believe it, then you have an alterior motive. If she offers you her number, don't take it. Practice talking to a bunch of women. Eventually you'll become comfortable with the idea, and you'll be turning down the numbers you're offered.

'bad experience' ...how come?

That's your problem, you don't sound like you have self worth. Try talking to a random woman just for the sake of having a fun conversation. Go into it thinking something like, "I don't want her number, I just want to have a couple of laughs." You can't fake it either. If you think that, but don't believe it, then you have an alterior motive. If she offers you her number, don't take it. Practice talking to a bunch of women. Eventually you'll become comfortable with the idea, and you'll be turning down the numbers you're offered.

Can't. Have proven to be incapable of faking something like that.

ok this is a question to all (women). my thinking (and that of a few of my friends... blokes btw) is that for a man to go up to a woman, in a bar, say, and chat her up simply (and openly) for the purpose of getting laid is surley insulting and derogatory to the woman? is this true?
I wouldn't be insulted. This bloke would like to have sex with me, I think that's a compliment, not an insult. But of course I'd turn him down because I'm not interested of one night stands. At least he's honest and there are many girls who like to have sex with random partners.


do women really prefer a stranger to meet them in the club, openly seduce and try and get laid (that night or, if not, soon), or would women prefer to grow a relationship out of friendship? does it change with the woman? myself and my friends think the latter - largely as the former is ultimatley shallow and, in a way, insulting to both the man and the woman.

Getting laid and getting to know someone is two completely different things. You can't really compare those. People may want sex with stranges between relationships and when they are open about it (not trying to get someone fall in love with you) I think that's fine. Of course it's shallow but if both want it, so what.

i act "nice", but not just to get to a girl - i try to act 'nice' to everybody. if i like a girl, and would like our relationship to go further (as with one particularily lovely girl on my course...) i won't treat her with any less (or more) respect than i do everybody. i do try and not 'manipulate' things - or myself - by pretending to be something i'm not. don't get me wrong, im not gonna make no effort at all, but i would like her to like me for myself. is that a really really stupid stance to take?? :confused:
That's exactly what you should do. Two thumbs up! :)

edit: I just realised two of my ex-boyfriends were complete strangers who started to chat with me in a pub...The other relationship lasted 3 years the other one ended because I moved out of the country... So chatting with a stranger can end up in many ways. :)

To keep your cool, all you have to do is not act insecure. Women will test you to see if you really are cool, or if you're just faking it. If she says something like, "You're a jerk," she wants to see if you're going to appologize, flip out or give some sort of cool response. A cool response would be something like giving a half smile and saying something like, "Thanks for noticing."

If you need someone else's approval, what does that say about your self worth?
surley acting "cool" is just as bad as 'acting nice' in the sense that you're faking it?
oh and, yeah, what self-worth?

Acting cool is a way of acting normal around women. Men tend to act a certain way around their friends that they know well and get along with. Yet, men tend to act TOTALLY different around women. If you just cool out and act like you do around your friends, you'll be a much more enjoyable person for women to be around. Acting weird gives women the creeps, and it shows insecurity and neediness. Women HATE it when guys act needy. They get plenty of that and don't need yet another needy guy trying to hang around them.

ok, acting cool = being normal.
i was taking 'acting cool' as actually trying to be cool - cool remarks or phrases or answers to questions, or whatever:

see i don't do "cool responces" like that, and wouldn't start doing them to try to act cool. but i get the message: just be yourself (just so long as you're not insecure, or needy and are self-confident ;) )

Cool responses don't have to be witty, clever and unique, just relaxed. If you become emotional, then you've lost your cool and you just failed the test. What would you do if your little bratty sister called you a jerk? Most any response in that general frame of mind will garner a positive reaction.

What I hate is that men expect the opposite from girls. I act no differently around guys normally than I do around girls, especially online, and I end up as a 'sister' to them, someone they can confess to, ask about women in general so they know how to talk to their gfs etc.

About my 'bad experience' it wasn't so bad...but I don't particularaly like having stalkers personally.

I'm a noob when it comes to women, so despite any positives I have going for me I'm doomed to being single.

At least I like myself :) ::cries::
