View Full Version : Hey you! Nice.... Shirt...?
After being in a long term relationship for like 5 years and having it fall apart had made me realize I am severly lacking in speaking to random chicks at bars
"hey you in the pink striped shirt, I like your top."
yeah that was my first attempt..... /wrists
How do you guys do it?

I think the idea is to go up to them, compliment them, smile then walk away. Yelling across the bar that you like their boobs just doesn't cut it.
That said, I still can't get it right. I'm much better at talking to people I already know and feel comfortable with.

One time i went out on the town with some friends for a big night out to help a friend get over his ex who he had just split up with. Before we left he proceeded to have a big doobie and by the time we had got to the valley in brissy he has consumed a fair old share of alchol. Anyways were at the bar ordering some jugs and there was this pretty girl standing there and I was like 'Hi, how are you? this is my friend, he just split up with his gf of one year'. she was all like 'aww'. my friend sort of mustered a response before we headed over to ther other side of the room. A short while later she comes on over to us to say to my friend 'hi hamish!' (she was obviously interested) and he just stood there staring at her not saying a word (the doobie and the drink had taken its toll) she looked a bit miffed and wandered off. And there was me, single at the time, thinking If I can pretty much set him up, why cant I set myself up?

How do you guys do it?
How have you completely failed?
To quote randomly from my friend who is rather successful with the ladies:
"You need to be confident, chicks dig confidence"
"You should try being a bit of a dick"
"But I'm not a dick"
"Well yeah it's just a method/persona, the dick persona may not work for you, try another one"
"When you approach them (in a meeting or online internet situation), whether they're some random chick or just anyone you want to be friends with, ask them more questions than they ask you."
"So you appear to be some kind of mysterious man of mystery?"
"No, because you want to appear to be interested in them."
I'm somewhat in the same boat minus any long-term relationship previously. My problem is somewhat similar to yours, I wouldn't know where to start with talking to random strangers. Actually, that's a complete and utter lie. I'm perfectly fine and dandy if you get me in a conversation whether it be at a party or at some random bar (though the only person that's ever come up and started random conversations with me at random bars the few times I've been out was a guy). The issue is, either initiating the conversation, or after meeting, knowing how make like a Lioness and pounce on the gazelle (or alternatively, "hook in")
Just based on the past 4-5 months where there has been someone I've been interested in. You could almost say the story of my life is a combination of 500 Days of Summer and Twilight. Guy is quite possibly head-over-heels, feeling not totally mutual, however instead of actually having any sort of meaningful, actually occuring relationship with the Zooey Deschanel character, it's all broody-vampire-nothingness.
I can now kind of summarize my problems quite clearly after months of utter failure:
Tunnel Vision - Creating this strange idealized prospect that it'd all work out, all eggs in one basket, whatever you want to call it.
Over-planning - Horrible lack of spontaneity in anything. Everything I even considered doing regarding her had to be meticulously planned out in advance. I knew exactly when in my timetable I'd have a chance of running in to her. Most notably/dishonourably/****-you're-a-moronly, I skipped/postponed an outpatient visit to the hospital for an injury that'd pretty much fully recovered to make a lecture one morning. It ended up being delayed for a good 3 months.
This even lead to crafting schemes of somehow phrasing asking them out in a do-or-die kind of manner that'd either lead to a simple yes/no answer. None of these EVER gave me a non-vague response due to horrible fates of circumstance. "Oh, I've already promised friends I'd go see Movie X with them." Quite clearly a no? Followed by the follow-up byline of "Thanks for the offer though, another time?" BUT being in this ridiculous perfectionist mind-set, the correct "another time" had to arise. It probably didn't also help that we share common circles which then compounded my neuroticism with a flurry of "What-Ifs" and visions of potential social awkwardness.
Total Inability to Read and React to Signs - This kind of relates to the issue above. There are moments where there were either subtle hints or, otherwise, chances to have made some kind of move/suggestion that I totally missed due to being in some kind of dumbstruck state. The line of "I'm so hungry, I haven't eaten anything since breakfast" is a BLATANT GIVEAWAY for asking if they want lunch. Did I think of that at the time? Nope, took me a good half hour until after the moment had passed before I realized and cussed myself out.
Interpretting Signs Where There May Have Been None - Is having coffee, then being dragged to speed-window-shop at absurdly expensive boutiques a sign? Is doing an impromptu duet to Taylor Swift's Love Story a sign?
She went for a High Five after it, I'd learned from that Lawrence Leung episode with that guy from Love Systems to try spread your fingers apart during it and see if you like ended up holding hands. We didn't. **** I should have known it from then alone.
You'll be fine SOX. You're a decent looking guy, you appear to have some kind of degree and/or job (based off your car keys I saw when I was at your house for that Street Fighter thing that said "Graduate"). You aren't a completely naive loser whose ended up purging the depths of his soul to the internet. You'll manage.
Try just starting with the blatantly dull questions if necessary: "Hey, how's your night going so far?", "What do you do?", "God I love/hate this song/DJ/Celebrity", "Man, isn't it rainy lately?", "God I hate the cold, don't you?", "I have these moments at night where I sit up in front of my computer typing words to random strangers with the vain hope they'd care. If you were in my situation, would you consider jumping off a bridge?"

One of the old police legends I heard about (probably true knowing cops on the piss) from some old sergeant was a Detective way back in the day at the police bar minding his own business when a police groupie (yes, they exist) comes up to him and drunkenly asks where Green Street was.
Said Detective pulls out his (legendarily huge by all acoounts) cock Bad Lieutenant-style, thwops it down on the table and squeezes the base of it causing all of the blood vessels and veins to pop out like the Governator in his prime.
He then runs his finger down one of these red blood vessels saying "well, you head down Red Street here"....
Nickname was "Map" apparently.

I have the perfect opener. It makes things really easy to start off, but that is the easiest part.
Ask them your opinion on something. Do it clearly so that they can hear it, but don't yell and do it over your shoulder so that you're not directly facing them so that they don't feel uncomfortable.
I always say "Hey, can I get your opinion on something?" They always say yes because it's unobtrusive and sneaky.
"Do you like guys with stubble?" - I always have short stubble, because it adds an extra 2 years to my appearance.
This suggests that I'm slightly interested in them and determines their interest. If they said no to that, which they have before, I laugh it off and pay them out for it or ask them why they don't like it.
The key then is to keep them smiling and laughing by teasing them or complimenting them subtly like - "Wow, I really like your hair"
A huge indicator that they are attracted to you is that they are touching their hair every now and then. It's primal instinct encoded into them.
It gets more complicated after that... I've got some good stories on how to seal the deal, but they're really long.
PS - You need to look good too. The more you hit the gym and the more attractive you are, the easier it gets.
I haven't been in the game for a while now... Had a gf for 8 months now and it's going strong.
For more really good advice read 'the game' and download 'The pickup artist' tv show. I like to stick to my own rules though with a mix of the game because it's easier for me. I only get the girls I like though, so if they drop dead gorgeous, but dumb as hell, I'm not really interested.
I'll post how I completely failed and learnt how to make the next move later as it's so long...

A really hot chick kept giving me nipple cripples so I told her it was only fair that I give her one if she gave me one then she straight away went in for the kill and got some boobie action AND didn't get slapped or thrown out of the pub.

You can totally buy it with dignity. Just suck it up.
Reading the game is like finding a guidebook to learning the basics of talking and understanding women in social places because your brother/father never taught you how. It's also bettering yourself as a socially comfortable person, although you have to take the ethical standpoint on how to use the game.
It's a great read but some of the stuff can be really intense.
One of my friends has mastered the game, but he's just turned into a massive douche bag now because of it. Always cheating on his GF of 3 years.
ALSO - There is the Style life 30 day challenge. It's a 30 day workshop that turns you into a master in 30 days by doing activities like, personal grooming, confidence, talking to random people about the weather and then moving on to more difficult stuff on a daily basis.
I gave up on it though because I just got into a relationship when I started it. My Brother is trying it now and is letting me know how it goes. It worked for my other friend though...

Buying that book is possibly asking to have people assume you suck at picking up. (which i do)
Buying condoms is asking people to assume you are confident of picking up?

Once again, buying that book has nothing to do with picking up.
It's a journalist's recollection of his journey through investigating the pickup arts as it was from it's beginning stages to where it is now.
And considering the book is a major prize winner, hundreds of thousands of people have not been embarassed to buy it.
It's an autobiography man, not an instruction manual.

Something actually reminded me of this thread at work today and i ended up having a though pretty much exactly along these lines.
Your description makes it sound like a perfect read for me. Raised by my mother and never got along with my brother. <_<
Over the last few months i've actually been making an effort to improve my social skills in general. I'm a lot better than i was, but learning to smile, make eye contact and being open to conversation doesn't mean much if you still struggle with instigating a conversation in the first place. Maybe i should make an investment in my social life. >_>

Just throw back a few shots and dont go for the chicks that want attention, If there is a group of girls just talk to the NEXT best looking one. Be yourself and dont try to pick em up just talk to them. If its going somewhere you will know soon enough, if it isnt you havent embarrassed her or you. Being friendly isnt offensive and if she finds it that way then she isnt worth it anyway.

Oh and also i was originally confusing the book for its sequal The Rules of the Game, which is the one thats a guide to picking up, not a biography.

Try one i picked up from The Game and am intending to try. Spray a different cologne on each wrist then approach someone asking them which they think is better on your skin. Once the ice is broken you shouldn't have too much trouble keeping the conversation flowing. Also if you keep count through the night you'll know which cologne is better for you. That way if you use samples you'll know if you should buy them. =]

Apparently it works, like i said i haven't tried it personally. Seems like a good use of the massive pile of samples i have lying around though. Also its just a way to start conversation, it's not something that most people will open with so it makes you seem more interesting. Well thats basicly how it's described in the book.

I think that's totally fine man, just be suave.
Be confident, don't approach them to fast. Engage them slightly over the shoulder so as not to be intrusive. Smile, have fun and be playful. Don't listen to these guys. If it doesn't work for you, try something else. It's definitely a good starting point.

Was there a window for a kiss? You have to take that window man. I have an awesome story about the window. I'll give you the short version.
I had a gig in Queensland on tour with the guys a few years back and I managed to chat up two nice chicks (around mid 20's and nearly 30) that were there for another band during the set. I hooked the older one up with the lead singer because I'm a nice guy and hit it off with the other chick. Throughout the night, there were HUGE windows for a kiss, but I didn't really have the experience to take it because I was too awkward. At one point she was literally up against my face, rubbing against me.
It got to the point where we were back at their apartment and my mate was hooking up with the other girl and we were just sitting there awkwardly, even though we were hitting it off earlier. I tried the the whole "I bet you ten bucks I can kiss you without touching you" and she didn't fall for it, she was getting really frustrated because I was noobing it up. Eventually she just said f*** this, I'm leaving. Her friend said to me "She must really NOT like you because she hasn't gotten laid in AGES".
I ran out after her and the cab pulled up and I pulled her aside and said, "Look, I really like you, I don't know what is going wrong" and she said one of the most valuable things I have ever heard in my lady-slaying life - "Look, when you kiss a girl, you just need to make it HAPPEN". I thought about it for a second...
She came up to me to say goodbye, she went in for the kiss and I freakin' dodged it. MEGA-FAIL. I went back inside to sleep on the couch while listening to my mate banging the other chick all night and thought LONG and HARD about what had happened (Hah, long and hard?).
Needless to say, I have never missed a window after that. You know when that window is there, it's an awkward air where you just need to reach in and kiss them. Sometimes it won't work, but it's worth the trial and error to figure out when it will.
Hope this helps some people out...

Still need to call that chick. I tried yesterday but it rang out and then i remembered a lot of places open from 12 - 5 in the city on sundays so i think she would have been working. Unfortunately i was getting drunk in a town with no reception by 4 and my phone died over night. Charging it now, going to give it another try and see if she minds me dropping by to say hi if she's working tomorrow.

This thread became a relationship thread so gradually I didn't even notice!
It is what it is this week, who knows what's going to happen next weekend?

Make one, I have heaps of awesome shirts.

It's not that obscure, it was from an excellent episode. I would have gotten it without the italics and I'm not exactly that great with Simpsons quotes >_>

Come on, it was me posting, there was a 75% chance it was a Simpsons quote.

Yep, the ladies love Simpsons quotes.
Her: "Hey handsome, wanna buy me a drink?"
Him: "Bed goes up, bed goes down, bed goes up, bed goes down."
Aw man, you're in.

Worst oppourtunity I ever missed - at a party, I broke into a drunken rendition of 'Stop The Planet Of The Apes, I Want To Get Off!' One girl was genuinely enthralled. She said to me "I find someone who can quote The Simpsons much more attractive than any football player". I didn't quite process this information until the next day.

Aran and I find out that some chicks are attracted to guys who can quote Simpsons well.

After being in a long term relationship for like 5 years and having it fall apart had made me realize I am severly lacking in speaking to random chicks at bars
"hey you in the pink striped shirt, I like your top."
yeah that was my first attempt..... /wrists
How do you guys do it?
How have you completely failed?
And now your posting on a internet forum hummus ^-^ Use lvl 8 agility follwed by a lvl 9 spark spell then your all good -_-;...

Why didn't I think of that before, thanks Kirok!
We could have avoided the last 192 posts of shit if only kirok had been a little faster off the mark

I would say yes.
But that probably means it should not be uttered. ever.

I mean, what if they're not fat, not thin, but they just think you're saying they're average weight? More importantly (and more seriously), it's just ****ing weird.
Worked on me, but that's besides the point )h( )h( )h(

If Louis Theroux has taught me anything it's that you walk up to them holding a book of the various constellations in the universe.
Only Louis is capable of Louis moves. They fail for everyone else.
