I'm a relationship expert—having one failed relationship—so I can assure everyone this article is inaccurate.
Now that I'm done being silly— the first point wasn't a joke though :c — I can thank you for this different spin on the dating thing. All my opinions on approaching girls are so nebulous that I have no idea how to get 'em down on paper, but I am solidified in the confidence aspect.
Why do they always have to show up and ruin everything? Guess I need to cross the Internet off the list of places I can hide from dem evil wimmen-folk.
lol'ing and self pity aside, Confidence is one of the hardest parts in my opinion. That and fear of rejection, which most might say are one in the same.
Also Wahay, 'sup with all the "guest" posting you've done as of late?
Just know WTF you're doing in bed and have alcohol
this sentence was my entire first draft.

There's a reason why there's an entire industry devoted to the art of the pickup. It's not because women are simple creatures, it's because they're the best psychological mindfuckers around. There are books, seminars, and websites devoted to disarming a woman's weapons. Read Roissy in DC for an example of how men game women.
Whenever I'm myself, I strike out. I think being yourself comes later, not when you're trying to get that first date.
When I pretended to be a cocky, horny asshole who just wanted a hump-n-dump, well by gum, that's what I got.
Well, if that is all your looking for, that is perfectly fine. It works on girls that are insecure in who they are and are looking for approval from a male partner,,, but..... Mature, grown adult women, honestly just want you to be honest, be yourself.
Now, don't get me wrong, I don't dispute the importance of what poofie is saying here. Confidence in the sense that when you see someone you like, just walking up and saying so should not be that big of a deal. Hey, want to have a cup of coffee with me, hey want to get a burger, hey, I think you would look hot in a laser tag vest, all those apply. It does not mean it will land you a date, but what it does is improves your chances, you can't just stand on the sideline waiting for girls to jump on you, you have to man up, smile, and say, hey, I dig you, lets do something together. Its not nearly as big of a deal as people make it.

When I enter that cheat code I end up getting teleported to world -1, friend world.
Except for with ardichoke. The thread thinks that it and ardichoke should see other people.
I disagree.
