Sooooo............... if he loses his man-card, can I make a bid for it? I've got cool toys, tools, and beer. Does that count? I look terrible in a dress anyway. :-p


Depends ... how good of a wingman ... er wingwoman ... are you?

Play reverse psychology. In every group there is that “hot one” that stands above the rest. Then there is the average and below average ones. Me, I go straight up to one of the “commoners” and start a conversation up or ask for a dance.
that's true....the idea behind that would be to see if she's really interested in you or even curious. in the mean time while you're dancing with her friend you can also question about the one you like as well.


I should pull your man card just for saying something like that! There are women that read this forum and they might actually catch on to it!
i guess i must be one smart little cookie since that's something that i did when i was 14 at a school dance that my cousin and i used to go to. there was this one boy with a group of other boys...instead of me asking the boy that i liked to dance i asked one of his friends...in the middle of the song the boy that i wanted to dance with cut in and finished the dance with me.

Wow!! The wingman even sleeps with the ugly chic?? I had no idea. For my female friends, I'd happily run over any guy they wanted with my truck before I'd have sex with one I didn't want to do that with. Well, ok if I could somehow make myself not aware of what I'm doing. I wonder if I'd get into trouble if I took rohypnol in the hopes of not remembering what I did?

Oh, I see where you were mistaken ... no, I didn't mean my wingman should sleep with a woman ... but a wingWOMAN on the hand ... (oops, just showed my typical maleness -- got to remember to quit flashing that stuff around)

Oh for God's sake, just walk over smile, and say "Hi"... Be confident...
It will either work or it won't. But pissing about trying different "tricks" is just showing a lack of confidence.
Confidence is an aphodisiac to women. NOTE: I said Confidence, not Arrogance.
You will either crash and burn or you will get talking or dancing with the girl ( or maybe one of the others - Sometimes they look better (or worse) up close)).
Chances are, if you crash, they aren't interested in meeting up with a guy anyway...
At least you find out quick and can move on rather than spend the evening staring wistfully at her....

It’s more fun being a guy anyways…if women only knew how we talk about them.

“Damn, look at that cape buffalo! Dale, Frank, take the flanks. I’ll circle to the rear. Stay away from the head, she’ll charge. Move…move…move…!!!”

Some advise when entering a bar or club to the guys. It is easier to go with friends but if you do go alone, befriend the guys there first. DON’T be the depressed guy looking into his beer. Keep laughing…always keep laughing…always! Always have some good life stories, experiences and jokes on hand. Everyone wants to be part of the crowd laughing the hardest. Take pride in your job, whatever you do.

When the girl you had your eye on all night passes by your little crowd, give a great big smile and a “Hey yall! We ran out of conversation, you have any to spare?”

I’m going to get beat for this but I’m not ashamed of it. Women, you ever meet a nice older woman in the bar that just happened to know the dirt on the good looking guy you’ve had your eye on all night?

“Yes, he a looker but I know him and he’s certainly a keeper. He’s a little rough around the edges but he has a heart of gold, old time morals, attends church every so often, and he’ll talk to anybody. If you’re interested, you better make your move now. A man like that doesn’t stay on the market very long.”

Yeah…I probably slept with that cougar. It really isn’t that bad. Cougars take it for what it is but for some reason have the insatiable need to hook their young guy up with someone his own age. There is a whole psychological reason for that but that’s another thread.

*** Man Code Classification: Beyond Top Secret ***

I just gave away my BEST secret!!! Why pick up women yourself when you can hire people to do it for you? Cougars are the best! You see, the best looking women have their defenses up like Fort Knox when they enter a bar or club. A sweet, mature, trustworthy, motherly figure, who's only their for the dancing, has a way of bringing them down.

latefall, hun, i'm sorry but that's also not anything that's top secret. i walked over to many of guys not for me but for female friends of mine as well. i can't count on both of my hands (or feet) for how many women i walked over to just to draw their attention to one of the guys in the group. when approaching a guy if he's with a group of guys i'd drag him out to the dance floor then start talking to him about my female friend, if he's at the bar with just 1 guy i'll talk to him there. if i'm trying to get the attention of a woman for one of my male friends i'd simply just stand there and talk to her constantly looking over towards the guy i'm trying to hook her up with.

edit:
But the point is, having a woman on your side to help you out is always a good idea!
it takes a woman that's afraid to talk to anyone to be a good receiver for the quarter back. ummm, i think i said that right, it's been a while since i watched football.

Gotta agree with latefall on this. Just last week I was down in California with the military and me and some buddies went out to a bar (mainly I was there to babysit the other soldiers and make sure they didn't get too stupid). Anyway, at this one bar we ran into a retired naval Lt. Col. and she was the coolest lady ever. She and I spent the whole evening trying to set up one of my buddies with the waitress -- and it worked! Good think the Lt. Col. was there with her lesbian lover otherwise she probably would have gone after the waitress herself! But the point is, having a woman on your side to help you out is always a good idea!

you want to get her attention without walking over to her.....buy her a drink.

My advice would be to first send her a drink.


I would NEVER advocate buying some random woman a drink. There are some women who will use men just to get free drinks.

Hey now....just remember, my lizard is bigger than yours. ;-)

It sounds like I might have a good thing going here. I guess I should learn this whole "wingwoman" thing. So, I'm just supposed to keep the other woman amused so she doesn't notice her friend is getting picked up, right? My boyfriend wouldn't exactly go for me sleeping with anyone else, even a woman, but if all I had to do was keep the others entertained to give the guys and in, that could be a good thing on all counts. The only problem I could see is if the guy is picking the toughest crowd of women there is. The Paris Hilton wannabes don't care to talk to someone like me. I have no fashion sense and am good at math. :-)

Big groups, no way. Girls can be really rude in the linebacker configuration. It's been a few years, but I still remember how that goes. Even if the girl may be interested, it's typically too awkward to get that going and more expected (at least when you're younger) to subtly blow off the Random Stranger. Older women are more mature...usually.

Now, a group of guys approaching another group of guys tends to be a divide and conquer. That's a better bet.

Or if it is a small group of girls, like 2 or 3. They may be happy for the diversion, but you have to divide your attention for awhile until you are "accepted". Then you can get the girl you are interested in talking and hopefully flirting.

I have to disagree with the average will attract hot theory. Despite their reputation, women don't want the drama of stealing a guy away from one of her friends. Not a Random Stranger in a Bar guy.

If a woman sees you and has any interest, she'll be sure to remove herself from the group and make herself available to be approached - but most times women in groups like this are purposely in them to avoid being talked to...it's just not why they're there.

I go out alone a lot, because I like to work solo. When scouting clubs/bars I'd rather just tell a guy to buzz off than hide in a group...but if I end up in a group of women I know, if I like a guy trust me I'll make it so that he's got no obstacles (I usually make moves myself anyway, but you get my drift).

The most effective men seem to be the poachers, you know you are talking to someone all night getting on nicely then you nip to get some drinks, come back and some other bloke is all over her - and she is loving it, story of my life. Anyway, I wouldn't advocate that kind of tactic, its not very nice!
