It doesn't help that 14 year old girls try to look 18 either.

I agree so much, sometimes when I go out with friends, there are some girls dressed in the most fashionable and provocative manner. They simply look a lot older.
I don't usually read these crap "x number of things you never y about z" or whatever articles, but this one is an interesting read. It's a bit repetitive and they writing style is unsurprisingly a solid 1/10 but he makes an interesting point or two.

I read it and I kinda liked it. I find it interesting as you said and I liked how he pointed out, "Stop asking how to make pretty girls like you and start asking how to become the person pretty girls like".

I skimmed and read stray paragraphs rather than reading the whole thing, despite being a best seller i'm not fond of his writing style. Some good points in there though for sure, especially the last one.
I poured my heart out to this girl I've know for a while and really like. She gave me the "let's be friends treatment." Doesn't feel too good, I must say.
How many girls turned you guys down before you got a yes? Just wondering how I'm doing compared to other people.
I'm 1 for 3. God damn it, I assumed you were all nerds. Somebody tell me they're like 0-30.

I have been turned down twice so far, once when I met a very good friend of mine. We have not seen in long years and have always been very close. Well it ended up by making it out on my bed and nearly ended in sex, but she asked me if we could stop.
Also my first time I has been turned down was like the following story, I wrote it down in the embarrassement thread a while ago. :v:
[quote]This was one of my worst moments ever, although I people told me that I have balls for doing this :v:
During school I always saw this cute girl, she was tall, blonde and had amazing eyes. I was really into her, seeing her run around the school. Although I was unable to get any name from anyone, she was completely unknown to anyone I ever knew during school. I was intrigued and tried to get a name by looking through yearbooks where all the classes are displayed with the names. Anyway I was unable to find anything, she had to be new. So I continued thinking and planning on how to approach her, her friends were unknown to me and I could not simply walk there, it would be far to creepy and awkward. After like 2 weeks without any progression I thought to myself, fuck it, I am going to her and ask about her name. So during a recess I saw her and tried to catch her when she was somewhat alone or with only a few friends.
Fully pumped, I smoothly walked to her and saw that she was heading to a lot of friends. Needless to say I was nervous because I did not want to catch her while she chats with her friends, so I sprinted to her in order to get to her before she reaches her friend. Suddently all her friends were moving towards her and I stood behind her, some girls where already staring at me. I said to myself "fuck this, I am going through this" and so I excused myself and said a simple "hey".
She turned slowly her head, everything was moving in a slowmotion kind of way. I never saw such a face, it was full of disgust, confusion, arrogance and revulsion. By that moment I knew that I was utterly fucked. She asked "Who are you?" without any friendly tone in her voice, no respect, nothing. I replied "Well, you do not know me but I thought that we might get to know eachother more and hang out sometime." This was the best that came out of my mouth, I was full of shit and despair. There were around 15 girls and her, all staring at me. She instantly said in a aggressive manner "I don't know you? Who are you? What do you want?". I knew this was already lost, I tried to paraphrase my question again but she replied with "I do not know you, what are you doing?". My head was filled with confusion. I proceeded to apologize myself and simply go away. Being fucked so much by that girl was to much. It was so humiliating, usually people are cool about it. I never meet people who are this aggressive toward strangers. She was aggressive and full of disgust.
Later on I laughed my ass off though, it was such an insane idea. But this story gets even better. I told my mom about my failed attempt, she was intrigued by this girl because I described her. At one point I found her on facebook because a friend got her name. For some reason I told my mom that her name was Lisa. Afterwards my mother was laughing her ass, I was unaware of the reason though. Then I told her last name, my mom burst out into laughter.
Then this whole thing made sense to me, that girl was not completely unkown to me. I knew her for a long time but we got out of sight. Our family went often in italy for sking, there was another family with us, mutual friends. It turns out that I always sat next to her as a kid, she was a cute little girl and we had a lot of fun together. I was at that time like 9 or 10 years old. Then I realized that she was like 6 years old, really fucking young. I played with her and we went skying together. Then I realized how much she looked like that girl but I have not seen her for along time.
This whole thing was just so surreal to me. But I thought that I had now a thing in common, a chance where I could get her to know me better. I contacted her again but she knew jack shit about our mutual vacations. She forgot everything and ignored me, it was a good thing though.
I later found out that all the girls made fun of me and that she is apparently a total bitch, besides my mother was a good friend of her parents. Once she said to her like, my girl was hit on by some boy during school, she was scared and confused, unable to handle with the situation. My mother told her that it was me.
So after all there might have been a chance, she was just confused. Still, this is now several years ago and when you look at it, she is way to young and unexperienced. What a story man.[/quote]
It was such a rejection, it felt like a fist of steel in my face.

I think for me it was between 4 and 6. There were two of them that were rather messy, though. One was just a bitch about it and the other situation was a little too complicated to explain here.
There isn't a clear-cut number that you should aim for though. It's not like "6 rejections guarantee a yes", as I'm sure you know, it's just different for each person. Keep you chin up and try to be as open to new things as possible. Especially new people. I might be repeating things you already know, but rejections are tough, especially like this one, and it sometimes bears repeating.
You'll do just fine. I promise.
It's funny when you use Shazam to find a song from a porno... then you go to youtube and search it up and the top comment is "Lol I found this song on* a porno!"
Theres this girl at my college, who i find really pretty and funny. We have been talking a bit over the last two months, but i relly want to see her off college, but i don't know how to ask her. And i don't know what she would like to do.
She is openly gay so that won't be a problem, and she knows i'm bi.

Just ask her if she wants to do something? Or are you wondering how to get in her pants?

I would probably guess I'm I'm the 40%-60% range but that's because anytime I talk or dance with a pretty or interesting girl out at a bar I ask for their number because makes asking someone your seriously intrested in second nature. Practice makes perfect

There's really more to it than randomly getting turned down until someone relents and says yes..
Take a step back and look at your approach and your life in general, and then take a while to improve yourself, because there's probably lots of stuff you're thinking & doing that make you less desirable that you could improve on.

I don't intend to be a dick but I believe it was you who said further up in the thread that you had just broken up with your boyfriend and were all confused about what to do. If it was you who said that then I would slow down as this seems like a bit of a rebound from the break up and flinging from one relationship to another normally ends in disaster.

I don't want a relationship with her. Just get in her pants.
To everyone saying that there's not a set number of rejections before you get a yes, I understand that and was asking just to see where I fell on terms of success. I analyze my attempts to see what I'm doing wrong after It happens.
So my ex wrote to me.. He is puring his heart out about how he feels over our unwanted break up. I've tried to shove away my feelings for him over the last few days. But this makes me realize how much I miss him. How much I want him beside me in all I do. How I wish I could run home to him and crawl into bed with him at night.
Fuckfuckfuck what do I do`?

If he feels this way, then why did he break up with you in the first place? And what do you think would happen if you got back together - would it be different this time?
We got back together. We couldn't keep on being this miserable and wanting eachother.

The reason we broke up was because that we were so busy with school and work. We loved eachother but had no time. But we now realized that if we truly love eachother, we can't just give up.

If you feel you still love him then why shove back all the feelings?
Go talk to the man. Jeez. In person.
So I made the decision to propose to my girlfriend for Christmas. I bought a ring two days ago and am thinking of ways to propose.
I was thinking of maybe taking an old shoebox and putting the ring's box inside of it, then wrapping up the shoebox.
What do you think?

I think you should be spontaneous and authentic. If that's the case, then go with it. Don't try to copy things you see on the TV or in movies. That usually goes terribly wrong.
