See, i've never been one for fooling. But then, i've never been one for trying really either. And when i have, i generally fail at some point down the line.

Sensitive guy doesn't really pay off in my opinion. Or at least, at some point i'm dutifully owed someone awesome.

I don't hold up much, to any hope.
I was raised the "Sensitive-type" and it does not pay off. That may also attribute to the fact that the "Sensitive-type" will think of the things that will not happen, and the "what-if" type problems rather than grow some and just go up and try their luck (Story of my life).

I've dated nerd women, it can be quite fun. For me the line "Nice shoes, wanna fuck?" actually worked, mainly because I couldn't say it with a straight face, she had a pair of Fuck-Me boots on, and we were playing UT together. As for advice for guys from a female perspective, I have a bit of that.

Only use pick up lines if you're a) joking and b) good friends with them. It can be really creepy otherwise, and not in the least attractive.
Personal hygiene is a must. No matter what. Brush your teeth before going out, even if it's to a dinner, and always have a shower with a good scrub everywhere. Cologne can be expensive, but don't buy the cheap stuff because you can tell the difference. It's better to go for a nice but not overpowering spray deodorant if you can't afford good cologne.
Work out clothes that suit you. If you're going somewhere more up-market, jeans work well with a button up shirt. Stained clothes and poor taste won't get you far, because first impressions do count. As I've said before, that depends on what you're going for. A metal scene goes more for band shirts and boots than say, somewhere more mainstream.
It's been said before, but confidence is a good thing. This can be a matter of "Fake it until you've got it" or just doing something which makes you feel better about yourself like hitting a gym on occasion.
Be able to converse! Knowing stuff is sexy, basic theme, and anyone who can't talk once you've broken the ice and convinced them not to be so shy is hardly worth it. Keeping up to date with issues and a backlog of other conversation topics helps here.

More to come, no doubt.

Despite my own (self-alleged) proficency on the subject I would never advice anyone to take dating tips from this kind of forum. So I will just lay down the entire game as bare as possible from my point of view for you to make what you will out of it.

Self-confidence is 90% of being succesful with women if you are male. Not obnoxious, pretentious, boisterous or plain hip-hop style trashtalking. But a belief in yourself that comes from within that is communicated just as much from undertones and body-lanuage as it is directly. Getting that level of self-confidence is not easy however, there's alot of good mental training out there for it (and 10x the amount of complete s**t on the subject). So until you get there of your own accord I would tell anyone to fake it until they make it.
Yes, how true.

NEVER EVER tell them that you have a skill (mechanic, computer technician, plumber, etc) early on, because they will ONLY keep you around to have you solve their issue. Then you're out in the cold.

the last girl I dated (one date, that actually didn't end), I made the mistake of saying I was good with computers, so we decide to meet up at Starbucks to have some coffee and chit chat. She had the BALLS to bring her computer and ask me to take a look at it.

I was completely and utterly pissed off at that point, so I just walked out.

Just be your self. Have fun, show her your personality. Don't lie and try and hide things from here. Sure, don't go telling them everything at once, but don't go around lying saying you have an awesome car or something false to try and grab their attention.

Be your self. Some relationships aren't meant to be together, remember that. Some can be a good start but end up being terrible. Just take your time, don't rush anything, and move forward from there.

The words of a great love guru:

'Maul her,' he said.

'What?' I said.

'Wait until she has to go to the bathroom. After about a minute, go by the entrance. When she comes out, just maul her.'

(If you want the actual context, and more advice, read this: http://www.billdawes.net/archives/going_to_the_ma_1.phtml)

I honestly could care less what people thought, so most of the time I always had girls to hang out with/interested in me. I was always the person "most open to new things", so whenever someone wanted to do something crazy/weird, they gave me a call (and (un)fortunately it led to the propagation of a myth that I was a homo. I mean, why else would I go to gay clubs with a bunch of ladies, walk out with at least one halfway humping me, and then disappear for the night...oh wait...). Of course, I'm a REALLY effin' weird guy, so my example might not work for most of you.

My advice, though? Do it. Whatever you're thinking about (well, not anything illegal or that involves zombies -_-). Unless your relationship is VITALLY important (i.e., don't seduce your boss, not if you want a job), there's not a lot to lose and a whole lot to gain. Only thing I'm going to say, though, is think about your future as well: doing it raw may be nice, but think about if you want to deal with a kid.

...And hopefully, I don't sound too much like an All-American Douchebag.

Best chat up line: Get your coat love, I've got a knife.

if that doesn't work then break out the HAX.

Also make sure you have some kind of skill. You know, like nunchucking skills or computer hacking skills, it always seals the deal.

Hmmm... Personally, I don't think there's any "general things to do" that works in all situation. I think my observation is be yourself. Anything else, and you can't really guarantee that the girl will like you for you, instead whatever it is you're trying to project.

"Hey. You, me, sex?"

I haven't actually *tried* this, but I reckon I would not get much objection from the male-type-persons. With my supermodel looks and all that *cough* *hack* *wheeze*.

Nor have I attempted this at the females of the species, though I wonder how that would turn out. I'd either get a slap in my face along with "I don't roll that way, pervert!" or get asked "When?".

This is just theory, though.

Edit: You guys think I'm stereotyping you too much? :p
Honestly...no. Kinda sad huh?
It's really that bad? Ow.

Truth be told, I have very little experience with anyone. Women, men or cats. I have no exes as this is only my first relationship. I can't even remember in what way we got together.

The amazingly stunning woman sitting next to me at this very moment just shared a smile with me. Neither of us has any clue how we hooked up (can remember the date, the setting, just not how we ended up making out that day).

Incidentally the only long term relationships I've ever had (i.e. the relationships that kinda worked out for a while) all started like this.

I'm not going to give much advice, something I've realised more lately is that being brutally honest is ok. If you think he/she looks bad in that suit/dress, say it, and say why. Because, to be honest, after a while the little things will start to annoy you more and more (look at anyones parents!) so you want to get them out of the way early on.

This is just the advice of someone who rarely goes in for long term by the way, I want to keep this one and I smile at her randomly and often, but my so-called "advice" is related to a string of successful attempts at one night stands and week long relationships, so feel free to ignore.

Anyway game geek dating advice... this is gonna be classic. *sits back with a bucket of popcorn*
You better share some of that popcorn. *takes popcorn*


Anyway, back to the topic, I can't really give any advice considering I am only 15. But I had a girlfriend for 9 months. And that went pretty well till the end. But for now, I guess I can say I act myself and I get a resonable amount of attention from the opposite sex. So I guess I can only say, be yourself. But that's said way to much.

on an additional note, blaming me for you not understanding what i tell you isn't the way to go. instead of asking me "how?", you'd be much better off asking yourself what you can do for you.
Did I say I was talking about you? No, I didn't. I was talking about the people who use that rhetorical line without backing it up -- on its own, it's useless.

well sorry for the wrong assumption there. perhaps you shouldn't have used my text as an example, especially since i actually told you how to do things. that you say it's useless on its own does not fit the rest of the text (that you didn't quote).

Man: The CIA is looking for my manhood. I need a place to hide it.
Woman: Is there any way I can help?

^ Don't fall for that. /sarcasm

Anyway.

Be honest, smile a lot, develop a sense of humor. And physical looks, unfortunately, do still major into today's dating world, but it's possible to still look good even if you're ugly. So get some new threads, be clean, be hygienic. Always speak your mind (unless you're thinking particularly unkind thoughts) and always treat women with respect, even if your testosterone-driven buddies say doing otherwise will be considered appealing.

And put that fucking Axe away, you don't need to smell like you just took a swim in a turpentine vat.

Me? I will play hard-to-get and uninterested and let whoever it is do all the work. Because no-one deserves me.

*Nod*
You must be a 10 then.
A 10?
Most men I personally know use the scale 1 to 10 to rate the overall attractiveness (not just looks) of women, 10 being the highest. 6 or 7 being the average for a woman, 8 or 9 for the better ones with 10 being reserved for those rare women that no man can resist.

Anyway it was suppose to be a sly joke (that failed) on the fact no one deserves you and you must be really worth it for all the work required.

Lol I feel stupid for explaining that now.
