ATOT: Glasses or no?

I'm sure that probably some of you guys may have been in this situation. Looking to meet more women romantically, but sometimes feel that wearing glasses makes me kind of feel geeky. Would it be better to go with contacts? I actually prefer glasses because they are just super convenient and I'm generally not a vain type. But if it is handicapping my chances then I guess they will have to go.

What do u guys think on this one?
 
It's all preferences. Some girls like you w/ glasses, some don't. The fame alone makes a huge difference. It's fucked up.
 
Glasses make banging ugly girls less awkward. They expect you to take your glasses off before sex. Removing contacts not so much.

Absolutely nobody looks better with glasses, everyone looks better without. Contacts all the way. :thumbsup:
 
For attracting women, you want to be in shape and contacts make working out, running, sports, etc. more convenient. Plus for sex, you don't want to be wearing glasses or blind without them.
 
post what ya got and we'll see how far off you are 🙂

I don't wear prescription glasses so I'm not too up on the styles, but I know there are nice pairs that look good
 
Without knowing what you look like we can't make recommendations. There are hundreds of frames out there because there are billions of different faces, and not every combination of face and frame will work.

This is exactly my problem. There actually aren't any good frames for prescription. Not the last time I checked. Maybe I'm going to the wrong place .

I will try. That would definitely put AT in a different social circle than where it is currently - totally anon. 😀
 
Get contacts and then you won't have to worry about it. Your insecure feelings about the glasses are probably holding you back more than the actual glasses themselves.

Chicks dig a confident (but not arrogant) guy.

Well that is definitely not true. Nicer brands are more expensive, but you can find them for a decent price online. Probably comparable to cheaper/uglier brands you would find in B&M stores.

this might be a decent start. they seem to have a good variation of different styles. see if there's something you like and then you can look for some other similar options

It goes BOTH ways and it's useless to talk about it without pics.

1. One can look pretty damn charming without glasses when you're used to wearing dorky nerdy glasses.

2. One can look pretty damn sharp & intelligent when you don't wear one but picked a nice stylish pair.
