The first girl looks batshit insane. She'll slash your tires and poison your lawn. (Be afraid.)

The second girl is cute, and seems down to earth and cool (go after her.)

The third girl is high maintenance (bag it, tag it, slag it.)

Those are just pictures you clipped out of a fashion magazine.

I can see FreedomsBeat going through a nordstrom catalog his mom left on the dresser and clipping out that third picture.

I have nothing valid to say in response.

Girl # 3 again

She looks a lot better in the OP. Try to bang her, if it doesn't work out it's just one less female friend.

Of course she looks better in her myspace pics - one was a picture from her modeling portfolio, the other pics were taken while I was drunk, in a dimly lit club. You should see apicture of another friend of mine - she looks amazing in her model shots, like crap in her real world pics.

so she looks ugly in real life?

Know them or not you've simply got too much drama going on from YOUR end. Girls pick up on that fast and word of you spreads even faster, even among girls you never thought might know each other. Just chill out and go with the flow man. You're trying too hard to not look like you're trying to be a ladies man.

I say call her, if she doesn't answer leave a brief....read BRIEF msg saying "Hey, it's me, just called for that drink, catch you later."....and NEVER call again. If she never calls you, oh well.

The reason she altered your original plans is because she likely got scared or has reservations about you in some way but is still curious enough about you to say "Hey, how about a drink before" to check you out more.

Hell, if you were truly a ladies man you'd know this and have said yes to the drink and nothing more, got her there, made her EXTREMELY comfortable and I garuntee you she would have likely ended up going somewhere with you that night.

You seem like you have a decent open game but your closing game sucks.

YES - you are completely right. I know how to meet girls but have no idea where to go from there. No fear talking to strangers, yet I get nervous as hell when I should get past talking.

I'm thinking my better move is to not call her at all.. we'll see...

Update
I was getting all anxious and worried but she just called me - said that she'd love to meet for dinner and apologized for not getting back to me sooner...

update 2
She was awesome! Girl #1, that is. Much cuter in person and, while she couldn't go out dancing, we had a 2 hour conversation and we're going out to dinner again soon. Girl #2 was cute and nice and such, we flirted a little bit and snuggled on the dance floor, but then felt bad because she's so young (19) and we had a big maturity gap. we came back to my place and played video games until 6 am, which I know some of you guys will think that I'm a douche for doing. Girl #3 flaked... Argh.. So, yeah, I'm glad I didn't call!

Too bad on #3 because she was definitely the hottest of the three. But good luck with the other 2, and hope that they don't find out about each other ;)

I've known girl #3 for years - it's not like I'll never see her again, she just flaked. I was hoping to get some hitting on by proxy going last night - hit on girl #2 to make girl #3 jealous, but that didn't work out. I ran into an ex and used that to my advantage though, ignoring girl #2 enough to make her jealous. but i stopped playing games and stopped thinking about trying to hook up with her and just had fun.

As far as them not finding out about each other - I told them both that I was hanging out with each other. I'm not dating any of them, there's no harm. After the night, I'd only consider dating one of them - and I would never do anything disrespectful if she did chose to date me. But thanks for the good wishes, I'm trying to not let my usual tendencies mess anything up with girl #1.
