I cant believe this thread is still going. Im pretty sure ive slept with more girls from the time this thread was opened, till now then half the people who posted in here. Simply because i have not been in this thread.
But alas, i cheat the game... being a bartender and all. Why dont you all just stop posting in this horrid thread and go talk to someone of the opposite sex.
Lol so basically OP is callin everyone asking for advice about relationships losers that live with their parents? Maybe this is the right place to ask I mean look at all these people claiming to be having relationships since the age of 14 sounds like a good place to start and chances of you knowing these people are slim so you can be safe to not be judged.
But if you want to keep acting like the Chick Whisperer because you think your conquests made you an expert, be my guest.
I actually laughed out loud at this.
That said, the sentiment is very true. Acting like there's one single way to get anywhere with women is similar to acting like there's one single way to get anywhere with men (for example, suggesting that all you have to do is put out, when most men won't actually go for that).
Truth be told, I read the "I'm a pretty cool guy, I date models and don't afraid of anything" post and don't really see anyone I'd give much attention/respect to in most cases. Comes across as kind of male-skank-ish and putting too much emphasis on past exploits that aren't really relevant to the discussion (this isn't a "how to date models" thread last I checked).
But apparently not the wisdom to realize that (being a large group made up of billions of individuals) women in fact have varying priorities when it comes to what they look for in a man so generalizing what they want is foolhardy at best. Some women require looks. Others look for personality. Some look for wealth/status. Some have a few main priorities but are lax with the rest. And that all gets affected by things like culture, age, religion, finances, etc, etc.
But if you want to keep acting like the Chick Whisperer because you think your conquests made you an expert, be my guest.
Expertise does not come from conquests, conquests come from expertise. As Sun Tsu once said, "The victorious army wins first, and then goes to war, whereas the defeated army goes to war and then seeks to win." (that's paraphrasing.) It actually fits in this context, surprisingly enough.
Granted my post was one huge generalization (and I AM working with only western girls, I didn't try to pick up any girls whenever I left the country), but are you going to argue the main point? (Which is to say MOST girls go for looks as a primary interest and personality as secondary?)
Actually this could be said for guys as well now that I think about it...
@ Teia: You're not the kind of girl I would consider, either. No disrespect meant, you're intelligent and I can usually apreciate your posts, but I AM a man whore after all:D
edit: WAIT. Did you REALLY just say that a girl putting out won't get most men???
Well, let's put it this way: They did a study once involving an attractive man and an attractive woman walking around a university campus randomly propositioning people. A surprising number of the men propositioned actually said no (maybe they feared the clap, but point stands, not every guy wants a skank).
I think my vague "get anywhere" phrasing is to blame for your confusion, though. I wasn't just referring to one night stands or a string of a few dates with the first guy to rate higher than n/10 where n is modified by how drunk and/or desperate you are. Most men (or at least men I know) don't look to start a relationship based on how low the neck line of someone's shirt is. Basically I'm counting all of short-term, mid-term, and long-term in there.

Almost any guy will hit a hot girl, the ones that said no were more than likely either committed or gay, if a girl walks up to me and asks me out and is a 7+ I'll accept, and I don't even like 3D very much, but thats a story for another day, also I garuntee more women said no than men.
And you are incredebly misguided by the people you hang out with, as many on here are, because, lettuce be reality for a second, there are very very few hot female yaoi fangirls/magic players, I, based on all the things I know about you from these forums (avatar from a crappy old anime of one of the most annoying chars, yaoi fangirl, single female mtg player) can probably be reasonably correct in guessing you're probably not the type of girl a remotely attractive guy would be interested in, poster above me said it just nicer phrased,as such most of the guys you know do more than likely care about looks they are just beggars, beggars can't be choosers.
You have 0 room to talk about guys not caring about looks as 1-you are a girl and 2-you are blatantly wrong, the FIRST thing you notice about someone is there looks. Almost all men look to start a relationship with an attractive girl, just because the guys you know don't agree means nothing, it actually says a lot about you, the reason guys end up with 4s is they give up trying to become worth an 8's time, but everytime they see a guy like me with an 8 on his arm he feels regret.
It's just incredebly annoying to see a girl, dishing out idiotic advice to the tune of "looks don't matter", for a girl they are her MOST IMPORTANT trait, and they are very important for guys too.
This is in no way meant to attack you, but you are just blatantly wrong and have an incredebly misguided veiw of how dating works, what you are talking about is a phenomenon I call "nerd love" which is where 2 desperate nerds wind up together based on the beggars can't choose rule.
Basically to sum up my post don't argue with people who are right, Looks matter, you're wrong
PS:If you can prove in some way I was wrong about anything about you I will retract my statement
Oh man, I read the first paragraph and got ready to shrug it off.
Then I read the second paragraph.
Let's get the biggest problem with your post out of the way first: I don't really care one way or the other about Inuyasha, nor the character of Yura (except her accent, which is kinda cool). The reason she's my avatar is because from that angle she looks a lot like Teia.
What can I say? I have no art skills.
Moving on.
you're probably not the type of girl a remotely attractive guy would be interested in
So there are two directions this can be taken in, both offensive.
You could be saying that remotely attractive guys aren't interested in gamers who watch anime and sci-fi. In this case, you're saying that as male attractiveness goes up, so does shallowness. I'll assume this is what you meant, because otherwise you'd be calling me ugly.
Being that you've never so much as seen a picture of me, I think calling me ugly is an entirely baseless assumption. And you know what happens when you make an assumption, right?
That's correct.
You make an ass out of you and mption.
Please, think of poor little mption.
what you are talking about is a phenomenon I call "nerd love" which is where 2 desperate nerds wind up together based on the beggars can't choose rule.
Alternatively, the "we wound up together because we honestly liked each other without looks being a primary factor" rule. You know, the rule that says you can have a happy relationship based on things other than looks. You know, things like shared interests.
Or shared experiences.
Or shared fetishes.
Hey, when the Internet is involved, this is always a possibility.
Devaluing a relationship just because both people aren't models is an ugly thing. I suggest you not do it. If two nerds honestly like being with each other, who are you to object?
If so, you should stick to making elf tokens. I hear if you hook up with T'PolQuirion Ranger you can even make two a turn.
Assuming she rates high enough to be worth your time of day.
But synergy is a powerful thing.
I think you could make it work.
but everytime they see a guy like me with an 8 on his arm he feels regret.
You know, for the 1-10 system to make any sense, 5 would have to be average. Unless there's some kind of exponential growth where going from 5 to 6 is less impressive than going from 6 to 7. So realistically speaking a 4 would be a bit below average.
That's not too bad. Especially if he actually loves her.
It's an impressively shallow man with an extremely misguided set of priorities that finds love and feels regret because his partner is "only" a B cup.
That's not to say his priorities are invalid.
Both of them.
But it is to say that he's trying to find validation in the eyes of others through his partner.

"Achievement Unlocked: Hot Girlfriend."
Which is a pretty decent metaphor all around. If you go through doing nothing but trying to unlock achievements, then that's your thing. But not everyone finds that fun.
Just like how not every Halo player is an immature frat boy.
I can't believe I just typed that. True as it is.
But you still won't ever see me playing Halo.
for a girl they are her MOST IMPORTANT trait
Ad industry nonsense. That belief is engineered to sell clothes, makeup, and other nonsense by assaulting a woman's self-image constantly. Now does this mean that I don't own any nice outfits? That I can't apply makeup without looking like a clown? That I'm willing to leave the house looking like a homeless person?
According to your set of assumptions? Sure. In reality? Not really.
Except for perfume. But that's because of allergies.
And no way in hell am I going to make myself sick just to smell like that.
I think it's important to look at what I said more closely. Did I ever say looks were truly unimportant? I sure don't see any of my posts saying that. It seems to me like you made an assumption.
I thought we were doing so well.
Now look what you did to poor little mption.
I think you owe him an apology.
there are very very few hot female yaoi fangirls/magic players
It's interesting to me how the hottest nerd/gamer girls (in general) I know are actually transgirls. Do you know why that is? Would you care to venture a guess?
No?
Not even a jab to tell me I need new glasses?
All right then.
They owe it in no small part to how much effort they put into it, either because they have to or because on some level they feel the need to (or both). Really, any woman (cis or trans) can look quite attractive when they try. But the question is, when you're out at FNM or something, why bother? Just to attract people like you? Is that it?
I know I wouldn't bother.
But you know what would make me bother? A guy who I actually have that "click" with. Doesn't matter if he's a 6 or something.
@ Teia, I saw that campus study in a psychology class way back, and as I remember it, the take-away was that most men said yes and all woman said no. I think this is generally representative of the male and female populations. However, this has nothing to do with actual relationships, just answering "yes" to anonymous sex. I think a lot of this has to do with cultural gender norms. ... But there is an argument that those gender norms are heavily influenced by biology.
To all: Looks don't actually matter. Brain is best. Everyone saying the opposite has not been with a beautiful dumb girl. If dumb, the hottest girl in the world gets boring in and out of bed after about a month or two. And believe it or not, they actually start to look ugly.
And, to everyone talking about being with models. Stop. In my experience, models are actually the easiest women to date/sleep with. In general, they don't care about looks at all and have very low self-esteem. The former most likely happens because they are around beautiful people all day and become bored of it. And the latter happens because a model's self worth is built on her looks, and 1) her looks are always on the decline and 2) she doesn't look as good as she does in the photos (due to makeup and computer enhancement). … Case in point: Kate Moss and Pete Doherty.
In sum, everyone has relationship issues. Hence the massive industry of talk shows, magazines like cosmo, and this column. If talking about it on a mtg forum helps, more power to you.

Dumb or not, I think the hottest girl in the world would get boring in and out of bed after about a month or two. Just like eating chocolate cake after every meal would get boring. Variety is the spice of life.
Actually, I think a lot of guys having problems invest too much into one girl/woman. I haven't read every thread, but the ones I've bothered to look at are often about one specific girl/woman. Date 4s, 5s, and 6s. Build up your confidence through experience. You'll be less likely to screw up when going after 7s, 8s, and 9s.

No. Just no. You have no idea how humans work, stop pretending you do.
Point 1. Which is why all the nerds in chess club are always dating the cheerleaders, right?:rolleyes:
Point 2. A hot girl will never get ugly based off of your perceptions of her other features, which is why people who have no connection and fight all the time constantly break up and get back together. sex appeal. You see a hot girl who you argue with, and something called sexual tension builds. This can be two sided, but is most oftenly 1 sided.
Point 3. Yes, models have low self esteem a lot of the time (not something I would call more than half, probably closer to 3 out of 10) for the reasons you mentioned, but as it turns out, models are typically something that we call SHALLOW. Which is to say, that translates into "most people on this site have no chance." Most, not all.
Point 4. A model will typically(!) date someone who is attractive, and then break up when she doesn't find him interesting, or captivating. Captivating is a better word in general. A lot of girls who are into modeling end up with a guy who is SLIGHTLY above average looking, but with a really great personality. They will very very very rarely dip below average, and I could make a diagram to show you, but it's very similar to the graph floating around that dictates how likely a girl is to have anal sex on the first date, based on her looks and ☺☺☺☺tiness factors. Change the variables, but the graph stays the same.
Also, I would like to point out, that a very good looking girl does not date ugly guys with great personalities as much as average girls do. Or ugly girls.
to teia- the hottest girls you know are trannies, kinda helped my point, but I'm not gonna respond to the rest as it's just too long.
1) "Tranny" is to trans people as "darkie" is to black people.
2) I was going to write more but you're the type to use hate speech in your posts so there's really no point in trying to have a civil debate with you.

I had no idea either that tranniy/tranny is considered offensive, with the only transexual person I know tossing it around at will. I think you just know some particularly politically correct transexuals.
1.I think most sane people would be suspicious of free cake from a stranger. In this case the cake was a lie.
2.GameFAQS doesn't have a guide for that.

1.That was a failed attempt at a mene refference.
2.That was a terrible joke.
3. So monogamous relationships aren't your cup of tea. The rest of the world does not subscribe to your beliefs.
4. That was terrible, terrible advice. You really just don't have any idea about this subject, I'm sorry. Granted you know more than me in plenty of other topics, MTG among them, but this is *not* one of those topics.
I had no idea either that tranniy/tranny is considered offensive, with the only transexual person I know tossing it around at will. I think you just know some particularly politically correct transexuals.
I have much, much more knowledge of and contact with the trans community than you do. Trust me, "tranny" is generally considered offensive.
Are we talking about hooking up here or actually looking for a serious relationship that's worth my time and effort finding somebody that clicks on a physical and mental level?
Because when looking to date and/or sleep with as many women as possible, working out is a must, be clean shaven, and have a high amount of self-confidence. Also have a job. But none of those things will necessarily attract a girl you would want your mother to meet. A lot of 8+'s I know are fairly shallow and although I would most definitely bed them (if I were single that is...), I wouldn't really be interested in long-term dating with somebody who exclusively had looks to offer. (No offense to great 8+ girls)
Also approaching a random girl (with the intent to date) and approaching someone you possibly know or will see everyday is two totally different things with very different strategies.
P.S. Alcohol will help to temporarily alleviate your confidence issues.
P.P.S. I would totally have sex with a transexual.

...oh, you're 18. Makes so much sense now.
I'm right there with you, bro. I played chess at a competitive level for years, and I'm a professional mixed martial artist who gets around pretty easily.
You *did* kinda ignore the part of my post which said "all". There *are* exceptions, you and me are two of them.
I don't know what that means but I'm confident the answer is either.
MTF is male-to-female. FTM is female-to-male.
Sometimes you'll see them rendered as M2F and F2M for this reason, but I think that looks just plain ugly so I stick with the above.
P.S. I'm not gay but I would have sex with a man if it felt good, I don't really care. *shrug* (I haven't done it before as you might have been able to tell)
You can have sex with a man without being "gay." The spectrum of human sexuality is a very grey area—it's not just a straight/bi/gay trinary.
Edit:
weird internet fetish porn.
I object to "weird." There's absolutely nothing wrong with exploring your sexuality and finding that you like specific things. It's much more healthy than repressing your desires.

If it goes against the norm, something is wierd. I'm one walking stereotype contradiction, so you could argue I'm wierd. Transexual's being called wierd is a mercy compared to what most people would say.
I personally don't care one way or another about other humans sexuality as long as they don't harm children, honestly. I only like females who were always females,and if I found out that the perfect girl was originally a guy, that's a dealbreaker for me. Whatever anyone ELSE wants or will do isn't my business.

What do you mean by 'professional'?
I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to see some proof on this...saying you're this or that on the internet is incredibly easy, when no one is double checking you...
Because I highly doubt you are a professional in any sense of the word...I've been practicing Brazilian Jui-Jutsu for over 6 years, and I can *barely* call myself a 'professional'. And considering your age, I just don't buy it...

But you know what would make me bother? A guy who I actually have that "click" with. Doesn't matter if he's a 6 or something.
No, not that kind of 6.
She's a little too "generic Hollywood" for me.
But hey, you want to live in your little world defined solely by tiers of attractiveness, be my guest.
Just don't cause the genocide of the human race while you're at it.
Hey, when people do that, it makes me write this kind of post. I enjoy excuses to break out this writing style.
To all: Looks don't actually matter. Brain is best. Everyone saying the opposite has not been with a beautiful dumb girl. If dumb, the hottest girl in the world gets boring in and out of bed after about a month or two. And believe it or not, they actually start to look ugly.
And, to everyone talking about being with models. Stop. In my experience, models are actually the easiest women to date/sleep with. In general, they don't care about looks at all and have very low self-esteem. The former most likely happens because they are around beautiful people all day and become bored of it. And the latter happens because a model's self worth is built on her looks, and 1) her looks are always on the decline and 2) she doesn't look as good as she does in the photos (due to makeup and computer enhancement). … Case in point: Kate Moss and Pete Doherty.
In sum, everyone has relationship issues. Hence the massive industry of talk shows, magazines like cosmo, and this column. If talking about it on a mtg forum helps, more power to you.
I think most sane people would be suspicious of free cake from a stranger. In this case the cake was a lie.
A DFC is fine too.
GameFAQS doesn't have a guide for that.
Dumb or not, I think the hottest girl in the world would get boring in and out of bed after about a month or two. Just like eating chocolate cake after every meal would get boring. Variety is the spice of life.
Actually, I think a lot of guys having problems invest too much into one girl/woman. I haven't read every thread, but the ones I've bothered to look at are often about one specific girl/woman. Date 4s, 5s, and 6s. Build up your confidence through experience. You'll be less likely to screw up when going after 7s, 8s, and 9s.
No. Just no. You have no idea how humans work, stop pretending you do.
Point 1. Which is why all the nerds in chess club are always dating the cheerleaders, right?:rolleyes:
Point 2. A hot girl will never get ugly based off of your perceptions of her other features, which is why people who have no connection and fight all the time constantly break up and get back together. sex appeal. You see a hot girl who you argue with, and something called sexual tension builds. This can be two sided, but is most oftenly 1 sided.
Point 3. Yes, models have low self esteem a lot of the time (not something I would call more than half, probably closer to 3 out of 10) for the reasons you mentioned, but as it turns out, models are typically something that we call SHALLOW. Which is to say, that translates into "most people on this site have no chance." Most, not all.
Point 4. A model will typically(!) date someone who is attractive, and then break up when she doesn't find him interesting, or captivating. Captivating is a better word in general. A lot of girls who are into modeling end up with a guy who is SLIGHTLY above average looking, but with a really great personality. They will very very very rarely dip below average, and I could make a diagram to show you, but it's very similar to the graph floating around that dictates how likely a girl is to have anal sex on the first date, based on her looks and ☺☺☺☺tiness factors. Change the variables, but the graph stays the same.
Also, I would like to point out, that a very good looking girl does not date ugly guys with great personalities as much as average girls do. Or ugly girls.
1) "Tranny" is to trans people as "darkie" is to black people.
2) I was going to write more but you're the type to use hate speech in your posts so there's really no point in trying to have a civil debate with you.
High five. That made my day.

I had no idea either that tranniy/tranny is considered offensive, with the only transexual person I know tossing it around at will. I think you just know some particularly politically correct transexuals.
1.That was a failed attempt at a mene refference.
2.That was a terrible joke.
3. So monogamous relationships aren't your cup of tea. The rest of the world does not subscribe to your beliefs.
4. That was terrible, terrible advice. You really just don't have any idea about this subject, I'm sorry. Granted you know more than me in plenty of other topics, MTG among them, but this is *not* one of those topics.
I have much, much more knowledge of and contact with the trans community than you do. Trust me, "tranny" is generally considered offensive.
Because when looking to date and/or sleep with as many women as possible, working out is a must, be clean shaven, and have a high amount of self-confidence. Also have a job. But none of those things will necessarily attract a girl you would want your mother to meet. A lot of 8+'s I know are fairly shallow and although I would most definitely bed them (if I were single that is...), I wouldn't really be interested in long-term dating with somebody who exclusively had looks to offer. (No offense to great 8+ girls)
Also approaching a random girl (with the intent to date) and approaching someone you possibly know or will see everyday is two totally different things with very different strategies.
P.S. Alcohol will help to temporarily alleviate your confidence issues.
P.P.S. I would totally have sex with a transexual.
MTF or FTM?
Serious question.
I don't know what that means but I'm confident the answer is either.
P.S. I'm not gay but I would have sex with a man if it felt good, I don't really care. *shrug* (I haven't done it before as you might have been able to tell)
Hilarious. I was the guy on the chess team and math team who married the hot cheerleader/Prom Queen. Whoops...no one told me I wasn't supposed to do that. Then again, I was also captain of the hockey team...not all nerds are some unattractive, pasty, fat guys that *** to weird internet fetish porn.
*checks profile*
...oh, you're 18. Makes so much sense now.
I'm right there with you, bro. I played chess at a competitive level for years, and I'm a professional mixed martial artist who gets around pretty easily.
You *did* kinda ignore the part of my post which said "all". There *are* exceptions, you and me are two of them.
MTF is male-to-female. FTM is female-to-male.
Sometimes you'll see them rendered as M2F and F2M for this reason, but I think that looks just plain ugly so I stick with the above.
You can have sex with a man without being "gay." The spectrum of human sexuality is a very grey area—it's not just a straight/bi/gay trinary.
Edit:
I object to "weird." There's absolutely nothing wrong with exploring your sexuality and finding that you like specific things. It's much more healthy than repressing your desires.
If it goes against the norm, something is wierd. I'm one walking stereotype contradiction, so you could argue I'm wierd. Transexual's being called wierd is a mercy compared to what most people would say.
I personally don't care one way or another about other humans sexuality as long as they don't harm children, honestly. I only like females who were always females,and if I found out that the perfect girl was originally a guy, that's a dealbreaker for me. Whatever anyone ELSE wants or will do isn't my business.
What do you mean by 'professional'?
I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to see some proof on this...saying you're this or that on the internet is incredibly easy, when no one is double checking you...
Are you ranked on http://www.iscfmma.com/ISCFRankings.htm or anything along those lines?
Because I highly doubt you are a professional in any sense of the word...I've been practicing Brazilian Jui-Jutsu for over 6 years, and I can *barely* call myself a 'professional'. And considering your age, I just don't buy it...
Have any way to verify this?
