Al, I get the impression that you go into creepy-mode when you're around a woman you like. The secret to getting and keeping a girlfriend is to not do this.
Take this potential superbowl party as an example. How would you act at the party if you were only around your male friends? How would you act if this female friend were also in attendance? I'm willing to bet that your answers are not the same, and this has to stop. (After you've been dating her for awhile then the answers should probably diverge, but to start out with you shouldn't be thinking of her as "sexy female friend who I want to awkwardly lose my virginity to," but instead as "friend who happens to be female.") You can make a few concessions to the presence of the new female friend, e.g. masking your farts and wearing deodorant, but ideally these should be kept to a minimum.<p style="font-size:1024px">HTML is disabled in signatures </p>

I won't quote the lyrics because a: they're vile
b: they're banal
It's a portrait of a male psychological type.
It's distasteful, sure. It's shocking, sure. But so was Eminem who spoke to a lot of people in a similar manner."Flutie was better than Kelly, Elway, Esiason and Cunningham." - Ben Kenobi

Originally posted by Al B. Sure! View PostYou, sir, clearly missed the point. If you listened to the whole song, you'd see it's a downtrodden male's interpretation of sheltered aloof women secretly desiring rape ('She been plotting on my black ****', 'You touch yourself after hours/Ain't no man allowed in your bedroom/You're sleeping alone in bed/But check your window, he's at your window'). There's the necessity of social restraint and friendzoning ('We can chill and I can act like I don't wanna ****/You can tell me all your problems like I really give one').

My other advice would be to avoid rap lyrics and trying to sound like a hard gangster during the first date. Just act like a normal person and she'll likely think of you as a normal person. Make some jokes, keep the conversation rolling, remember to look her in the eye and smile once in a while.Try http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate.

2) Jokes and conversation are a bad idea. Definitely want to minimize me opening my mouth.
3) I'm a smiling buffoon. Need to smile less."Flutie was better than Kelly, Elway, Esiason and Cunningham." - Ben Kenobi
