I'm really curios. Part of me feels its better to just stumble upon these things, but the other part says the a little effort and loss of dignity isn't so bad eother. What do you guys think? How did you meet your current loved ones?(if any;)

A strip club.

j/k...

I met my best friend via e-mail. She'd been e-mailing a friend of mine for well over a year, & I happened to e-mail her for him. That was 19 months, thousands of e-mails, many cards & letters, & one week of heaven.

And she'll be here for a week in December.

:)

Just be yourself, if they don't like you for who you are, you don't want them.
Or, a strip club works fine :)

This much I know, but you know what??? I just asked a girl out and got brushed off. Bummed, yes, but the effort expended showed me that, well, I don't mind the rejection because I'm just gonna keep on coming back :) That had been the first time I'd actually asked a girl out since highschool. wow, it took me 6 years to grow alarger set of balls. :)

OK SexEPid, a little lesson here for you. The women at the strip clubs only like you cause you have money... once thats gone, so are they. :p

Actually, just let it happen. I am a firm believer in the fact that we don't find love, it finds us when we are ready. So just relax and have fun, it will happen for you eventually. ;)

Be yourself and find the courage to walk up and say something. At worst she'll say "not intersted" and you're no worse off than you were 5 minutes ago. Me, I'm just your average anorxic computer geek and my surrent GF is real knockout. I heard stories about her rejecting guys driving Porsches, big built guys, better looking guys, etc... I didn't think I had a rat ass in hell chance of getting into a conversation withy her let alone a 2+ year relationship. I've asked her why me and not someone else? her response was that I was one the first person that didn't come across as a fake. I listened and made eye contact (not boob contact).

Go ahead and risk it. Anyone who rejects you outright is someone you'll probably not want to have as a mate.

Good luck.

Not sure how to go about it anymore...I think Girlfriday said it best. It kind of hits you. Im 22 and in college. I honestly don't like meeting girls at school. I like it to be less obvious, someplace I wouldn't usually expect it :)

Well, let me take a minute to gloat here :D I cannot offer very much information as far as approaching girls off the street that you have never meant before. Because that is not really my forte.
As a prerequisit for this, before you read anything below, or attempt it, you MUST be CONFIDENT. It is the key in all of this, girls can sense fear like you wouldn't believe.
Most of the girls that I have dated I ran into at work. I know most professional places like offices frown upon this, but hey, I work at a movie theater :) School is a good pick, as is health clubs. Pick a place where you will meet girls that you are working with or where you can meet girls that are just coming through. (Can't beat being paid to mack!)
The easiest way I find to approach a girl that you see often, is to start of slow, exhange smiles, then hellos, go to small talk etc. DO NOT USE PICK UP LINES, don't try anything romantic at this point either, it comes off as corny, and they will just think you are a horn dog or something.
When you first meet a girl things tend to be tense, its best to break the ice by making a funny situation of some sort, make fun of yourself, tell a joke etc. etc. If you can get a big smile on her face, your in!
As time goes on try and build a small friendship, then do little things that show you care for her. Perhaps bring her some of her favorite candy cause you "just happened" to pass it in the grocery store. From my experience, I would stay away from big flower arrangements, those are a little intense at this point, however, you might try a couple wildflowers or something.
But there is one sure fire, no holds barred act, that will get you MAD brownie points, and I can't believe this, but I will give up THE trade secret for you guys. Sense I know most of us geeks are in need of desperate help.
Wait for the girl to become under the weather, you will get plenty of opprotunities during cold and flu season, not to mention that time of the month! Then assemble a kit in a brown paper bag as follows:

16oz Carton of OJ
2 Tylenol
2 "Get Better Bears" lollipop coughdrops(You can get them at any supermarket)

Present this golden gift of your affection to your dream girl, and watch the amazement on her face. Have her take the Tylenol, and inform her that she needs to drink all of the OJ so that she get plenty of Vitamin C, because you want to see her get better. Girls go GAGA over the get better bears because they are so small and cute. This gift is creative and simple, which girls love, and shows that you care for her, which you do! Its perfect.
At this point, you should be nearing the point at which you will be able to go on your "first
date", which shouldn't be that bad at all, because you will probably be very comfortable with the girl at that point.
Thats as far as I can take you tonight my friends. And why you ask should you take my advice? Well I can honestly say that I have dated every girl that I have have wanted to date thus far. Many I found out that I disliked, others are good friends now.
But the fruits payed off with the girl I asked to Prom last year, because I have a beautiful girlfriend now. I can honestly say that I fealt it was a stab in the dark, because she seemed to be slightly out of my dating range. But I went for it anyway. I wish I had a picture I could post! She is 5'5" 110 lbs, lean, wavy blond hair, blue eyes, well dressed and kept, athletic, funny,loves to cuddle and is the envy of all my friends.
When we have lazy time togehter, I play Dreamcast with her all day, watch action flicks which she loves, plus talk about cars and computers(although limited to Tetris and a game called Snood). Ocassionaly we do the formal thing, such as dinner or a play. But we have the most fun just lounging around enjoying each other company.
Basically, she is my dream girl. And trust me guys, there is one out for you too. Just keep trying! I had my heart broken to many times to count before I met my girlfriend, and at times I wanted to just give up.
Let my know if this helps you at all! And good luck!

1. Get rid of your computer, no TV, and no computer games, take a shower/bath, brush your teeth...greasy hair & dog breath have gone out since the invention of soap & tooth paste.

2. Confidence & smiles.

3. Ask your sisters, female friends which line that they have heard & like, and which line that have won them over...And, make a point to remember them priceless lines.



....So, can you girls of Anandtech forums spill the bean?

WWoman, Isla, GirlFriday, Toolgirl, and any others ladies that I many have missed can you guys give us the secret line that your significant other hooked you with??? :)

LynLabahn,

LMAO!... You obviously done your home work. What you have said it so true, plan your attack when they are down is the best secret weapon that you have bestowed upon us. Damn how can I have not though of the Tylenol, OJ & Get Better Bears. And, you are damn wise for an 18 years old...I wished I have known your trademark when I was 18 and in University ;)

One of a woman's greatest needs is that of conversation. If you're interested in a woman, be genuinely interested in what she has to say.

If it sounds simple it is. Simple? Yes. Easy? No. :)


This is of course, just IMHO. Though I have read many books on marriage/relationships that confirms this. Naturally that makes me an expert. ;)

Well, Napalm lived across the hall from a guy, who was my best friend at the time. I was also really depressed at the time, and he was just there for me. Everything just kinda happened from there. It all started when we would talk over icq until 4 in the morning everyday. That's how I really got to know him. Now we've been together for almost 2 years :)

best places to meet and get to know girls? college and church.

i know this sounds all wrong, and i'm in no way condoning attending church for social purposes. but from these two places, i have met many many girls who possessed all the qualities, and much more, that i look for in girls. from my experiences i've come to a conclusion that most beautiful, wholesome girls "hide" in their homes and not hang out in places like clubs or bars. but they do faithfully go to schools and churches, and you will be very surprised how many great girls you'll meet at these places.

i have many friends who are female, and they all seem to agree that they are attracted to guys who are confident about themselves. not overly, as in cocky. having hobbies that interest girls is also a plus. i have a few hobbies (activities) that impressed girls, and just from those hobbies i had many requests to go along with them and i got to date quite a few of them too.

of course if your type of girl is the wild, naughty ones, then you might want to look elsewhere. like clubs, bars, and someone mentioned strip clubs, although these girls only want to date your money.
