Vel's Strat Thread - Flirting - Pt. 1 - Icebreakers (for shy guys, 'specially)

[DarlinKell]

I think you have alot of good points in there!

Laughter is important...... eye contanct 'NOT STARING" lol the casual brush against them..... yeah we do pick up on those sort of things.... but ya know i mean its a guide ... right Vel?

so does that mean its not real? Cause to me that sort of makes it lose a little of its intensity...... but then again i guess women have a plan for getting a man

Ps Honestly is very important..... Very!!! if you lie to a woman then they find out and believe me they will....... there's not saving it... you might as well move on!

so do women really find astronomy that sexy? I always figured that would be viewed as geeky. I might start getting into astronomy

Geeky? Nah, that's not geeky.

I meet many girls by helping them out with the computer. Now that's geeky.

Although as long as you're not like Nick Burns or really geeky about it, I don't think they really view it as a bad thing that the guy's a good "troubleshooter" with them. Being patient and having a non-nasal voice and a good sense of humor helps.

[Dis]

yeah that works with me too. Of course I'm not really that good at computers, but that doesn't stop me from trying. especially if it is a computer at their house .

Nick Burns. I do like that skit. But as with all skits, it's getting old.

Last year in one of my Psychology classes (also a good place to meet women ) I was tired and just spacing out. Sorta staring straight ahead at nothing in this U-shaped lecture hall. I eventually snapped out of it and this girl was smiling and blushing, and apparently though I was staring at her.

Thank ya Darlin....and yep...it's the little details that count....those are the things that are remembered....when one subtle brush of hand against hand can send shivers....that's where the magic is....

[Al B. Sure!]

blah... nothing new here... i naturally do all this **** to no avail... i know a lot about broad topics, i draw, i write poetry, im very courteous to females, honestly and simply compliment them, and I probably look alright (six foot one, lean, athletic italian/spanish looking with what one girl who was briefly interested in me called puppy dog eyes).

lol

too bad... maybe it's cause a lot of girls say i'm macho or even thuggish. what the hell?


thanks

[Dis]

p.s. you need to actually show interest in them, not your own problems and it should work speer.

[Velociryx]

Don't know, Albert....perhaps it's in the manner of presentation then? I mean....you prolly look better than I do....c'mon over...we'll hang out and get you fixed up! For the moment tho....I got some star gazing to do with Lady Ishtar....

[DarlinKell]

Very True Vel!

Some women are just attracted to a certain type of guy.... same for men..... its all originally in what kind of person your attracted to..... and you never know the person you find least attractive may actually be very attractive when you talk to them... who know?

Personally i like Big guys! gotta be 6ft+, 200+ and preferably older, but thats not to say if i met someone who was none of those things they wouldnt have a chance.... depends on the person!

Another great thing to do is to mean what you say! dont just make of a compliment ..... mean it! and dont just say what you think we wanna hear.... say what you really mean

So, uh, Darlin...how you doin'?

[Velociryx]

Outstanding points, DarlinKell!

I'm actually QUITE glad that there are some women posting here....I think the thread is soooo much better for it!

Yep....with regards to the compliments (and really, everything else about the conversation), it's all gotta begin and end with the honesty thing. Usually, in my own conversations, I keep things pretty simple....you know? If I'm drawn to a woman's eyes....if that was the first thing I noticed, then I'm quick to say that. Not only is it completely honest and sincere, but it's also "ready made" in the sense that I'm only verbalizing what my initial thoughts were....there's no thought needed....no tripping over my own tongue....I know what drew me to her to begin with and I just....say it.

I'm afraid all this drool from heterosexual and bisexual men over women is going to short-circuit my computer.

[DarlinKell]

lol Emperor!!! I"m doing just WONDERFUL tonight..... and you?

thats good Vel..... very good.... cause later when she waits a few weeks and knows that you said it was her eyes, but just wants to test you and ask ..... so what first drew you to me? you'll know it was eyes and not have to guess what ya made up and hope you guess right........LOL

Since I'd have a hard time finding any of 'em...any where you'd like to start! Stories to accompany? Wow..this just keeps getting better!
