I agree, although I'd bet we differ on which 90%

As opposed to being alias creating, whining virgins that will die with a remote control in one hand and a bottle of jergen's in the other?

It is good thing I know Sifl. He is a part time pimp and gives stress free management sessions for free.

from the 10% that arent morons.

and yet the 90% that have no practical advice to offer and would rather not do anything but insult me, still feel the need to participate anyway.

You have been given the same advice over and over and over and over again. I can tell you straight up, even if you have the greatest luck and lots of motivation you are not going to meet the right girl, let alone any girl, sitting on your computer. GO OUTSIDE AND MEET SOME DAMN WOMEN.

I don't think he's a troll, I think he's just a very pitiful sexualy frustrated computer nerd.

frick, I go outside a lot. Right now I am at work, and am at a computer for most of the day, and since there is nothing for me to do here, I figure why not post another question on AT forums. :)

Depends on both. But even if you can't be motivated to go find or at least be in places where you can meet girls you can still be by total change meet your gf.

Going out to places and such help a lot in meeting girls. But you still got to get with them and make chit chat.

Bloodhound Gang: I Hope You Die

You must die I alone am best!
I hope ya flip some guy the bird
He cuts you off and you're forced to swerve
In front of the Beatles' tour bus
A Bookmobile and a Mack truck
Hauling hazardous biological waste
The light turns red you have no brakes
And Hard Copy gets it all on tape
So you can see the look on your face
Die Die Die Die Die Die Die
Die Die Die Die Die Die Die

I hope your Pinto begins to spin
Takes out a disabled Vietnam Veteran
Mows down a Nobel Peace Prize Winner
And maybe some orphans having Christmas dinner
Perhaps even the British Royal Family
And the Rabbi that's clutching the bottle-fed puppy
And we can't forget the newlyweds
And those Jerry's Kids are as good as dead

I hope this helps to emphasize
I hope this helps to clarify
I hope you die

I hope your cellmate thinks he's God
But C.N.N. refer to him as Bowling Ball Bag Bob
Serving time again for abuse of a corpse
Only this time the victim's a Clydesdale horse
While he masturbates to photos of livestock
He does the Silence of the Lambs dance to Christian Rock
Eats feces and quotes from Deliverance
And fights with his imaginary playmate Vince

Die Die Die Die Die Die Die
Die Die Die Die Die Die Die

I hope he grins like Jack Nicholson
And forces you to play a game called Balls On Chin
And whatever happens next is all a blur
But you remember fist can be a verb
And when you finally regain consciousness
You're bound and gagged in a wedding dress
And the prison guard looks the other way
'Cause he's the guy ya flipped the bird the other day

I hope this helps to emphasize
I hope this helps to clarify
I hope you die
I hope you die

hmmm.. I dont quite understand your first sentence.

well, here's what I've come up with:
I know that some of it is chance. Not every girl you talk to is going to be perfect for you. But I also know that talking to girls, and getting to know some girls more definately helps.

There are some people who get real lucky and just happen to friends with the right girl at the right time, but I think I would rather rely less on luck, and put the odds in my favor, just by making more female friends, and getting to know each of these females better. And getting to know some better than others.
