Posted: 8/13/2006 10:22:52 PM | Learn to ask at the right time.....
Why? You won't get it...... If you ask "directly". If your having a great conversation, and she seems like she's having a great time smiling etc.... end the conversation saying you have to go then ask. Should increase your chances by a lot.... haha, I guess you can disregard my first few posts. I hadn't read yours entirely..... but there are some nice tips in them | |

Also, build off the asking for her phone number after ending a convo. Remember, It may not work the first time.... but "practice" makes perfect. And I don't mean practicing with yourself infront of a mirror or with a man/hermaphidite.... practice with girls around werever it is you go (I won't give any tips for were to go, I've already given you gold my good friend) and get numbers. You can make some nice women friends this way, it's a great way to meet people in general, then build off that once your getting in those numbers. | |

Posted: 8/14/2006 11:52:53 AM | Post above. Cute idea with the crayons, but you gotta tell me, if you have ever gotten a call.
Problem with that approach is that you have no control! No telling when or if, they are going to call. You may have let the most fabulous woman escape your clutches, just because she wasn't into the card thing, and expected you to take charge and tell her, that's right, tell her to write down her number! Don't ask. Shows lack of confidence! | |

Posted: 8/14/2006 2:15:58 PM | The funny thing about rejection is....that each rejection turns the odds more in your favor of acceptance. A couple of dates with women that most likely wouldn't have approached you and rejection doesn't taste so bitter. Nobody gets it right every time.
But I can guar-ron - tee much fewer dates if you don't ask | |

no braggin here. I met a girl in Walmart, 1 in university book store and 1 in library. We went out for a few month. | |

| How to tell if a woman is available to date???
Posted: 8/14/2006 2:31:22 PM | "I have gone out and seen a lot of women but is there a way to tell which ones are available and might be interested in dating?"
I think that might be a problem. Do you mean you're willing to date any of them?
Pick a few (no more than 3 at a time) who you're really interested and ask them.
For one night stand, you shouldn't be picky. But for long term, why do you want to settle with anyone? | |

Posted: 8/14/2006 3:04:18 PM | There is no sure fire way to tell without asking, in some form or fashion. When I meet someone new, I listen to what my intuition is telling me. If things are going well, the initial brief conversation is amicable, I simply just ask, (with a smile on my face AND IN MY VOICE)"Are you single?" Just like that.
Often they are surprised by how direct the question is, but have never made a negative remark about it. Most often they smile, and say either "yes" or "no". I have yet to hear "depends" or "maybe".
What you do from then on is entirely up to you. | |

Posted: 8/15/2006 2:09:29 PM | | Opie.....not only did the Victorians use the calling cards....they were much the norm even till about the 1930's.....men called on women all the time at their houses and left their personal cards.....women had them too for return invites and to show interest. | |

are you seeing anybody ? seems simple enough to ask
How about answering to "none of your F'ing business?" Women don't know who are the predators and who are not, and are much more likely to assume that the total stranger making a pass is a predator. | |

Ever wonder why it took the Sox so long to win the Series? You need some wins to be a winner. Repeated rejections do not weaken the grip of failure, they strengthen it. After a while your efforts become a cynical joke, and are doomed, and you know it. You get indifferent. You stay home. | |

Posted: 8/15/2006 8:36:29 PM | Halfevl.....I saw your pics too. You seem like a very eclectic, fun kind of guy with a touch of big teddy bear that I think some women would really love to be around. Like another poster, I liked those outfits you had in the last two pics as well. I'm not sure to what extent you do the horror stuff out in Vegas, but there are some wacky people I know who love to have these horror film fests, and do a thing called Scary-okee. It's quite a riot.
I'm trying to view this whole new part of my life the same way I view anybody who ever had success at anything in their lives......which is...the most successful people on the planet FAILED more times than they succeeded before they got it right. They just kept trying over and over....new things...new ideas...change it up. There's no failure except to NOT do it. And I've heard that luck only favors the well prepared.
Since you seem to have a bit of different flair, I find absolutely NO reason for you not to TRY those personal cards you were talking about. It seems as if they would be as much of a NICHE to your personality as some of your outfits. Provided of course you talk with women as well before just giving it to them. It's not IMPERSONAL to have them. Only impersonal if you are not YOU when giving them out. It sounds as if women DO talk to you. So it NEVER hurts to just say, 'hey, you seem fun....here...give me a call sometime....". If things don't work....it never hurts to change it up.
It's just all about AVERAGES. I'm sure you've been rejected in HERE, right? Well, you're GOING to be rejected out THERE too. Just try to increase your averages. A business establishment that hands out coupons to people AVERAGES only ONE percent of anything they hand out.....that is the norm...and some it's lower....but they STILL succeed based on knowing the AVERAGE of return for amount put out....make sense?
Just my take....I think you should do it....... | |

But the rest of my post was just over dramatic ridiculousness.
Ikusa, you mean you weren't struck by lightening? ...I gotta stop believing everything I see in writing. *shakes head*
OT: I think the inocuous question of "what does your SO think of this?" works.
I would adore receiving a calling card. The Victorians used them, and even had codes in the form of folded corners, to convey certain messages. I think it is a charming way of communicating. I love that retirees are using them to communicate. It is not just for dates, but for anyone who wants to stay in contact with someone.
A business card is good, to, but if I got one from a salesman (like the poster who was in real estate), I would assume he was looking for a referral, not a date.

BULL SH1T!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
As stated in other posts I was 6' 110 lbs(used clotheslines as umbrelas), cokebottle glasses, a horrendous stutter (which my friends dubbed the '57 speech impediment) and was the geekiest kid alive. I actually had a woman in Indiana cross the street to tell me I was the ugliest man she'd ever met. Then I decided to stop letting my life run by me. Over the years I have been out with a makeup model for Cosmo, an NFL cheerleader, and tons of the coolest chicks on the planet in all shapes and sizes, ages, colors and creeds.
If I had given up and stayed at home I would have had NO WINS and would have missed out on all that fun, my marriage (she was a model in her youth as well ) And all the fun and happiness to come
STOP FELLING SORRY FOR YOUR SELF........GET OFF YOUR BUTT AND MAKE IT HAPPEN
I often use my buisness card, but only after dialog and I write something about our meeting on the back | |

Posted: 9/7/2006 7:55:26 AM | | I noticed a lady at the cashier as I was next in line. I was suddenly attracted to her unexpectedly thinking she was the type of woman I would like to marry! I am extremely reserved and rarely have offended anyone. She looked up at me several times. Neither spoke but we made direct eye contact. I seemed to make her very uneasy and nervous. She paid and left. When I exited the building she was standing at her auto with the door open and was watching me. She appeared to be a professional type woman, very well dressed with late model german sports car. I am not good at reading emotions but it definitely was not a smile on her face so I was learly about approaching her. She drove away extremely slow as it watching in her mirror. Very strange feeling. I didn't have time to look for rings or other signs of availability. What could/should I have done? I wonder Did I miss the chance of a lifetime? | |
