Don’t be that skeptical. It really is a skill that isn’t that hard to get much better at. I was late to that game due to circumstances but I have begun to good fairly good at least for getting dates. It isn’t “one weird trick”. It is a whole strategy with several different parts but it still isn’t that hard.
I am a great opener but I still struggle with closing. That is, I can get dates on demand and make sure we have a good time doing something we both like but I am not very good at making bold moves in person. I am so self-conscious about offending someone that it is hard for me to tell when to go for a first kiss or even holding hands. It works naturally sometimes but I know I have missed really good opportunities before because I didn’t read signals correctly.
I once clicked on one of those “one weird trick for a huge penis” links because I thought “Hey - I’ve got a huge penis and it’d be neat to teach it a trick”.
Hes got a point Shag. I like you and all, but if I were dating a woman who implied she did stuff like this (tried to get revenge over something minor) I’d probably ghost on her too.
That reminds me, school is starting tomorrow around these parts. Maybe I’ll head down to the high school and check out all the hot young moms dropping their teenagers off at school.
I need to correct myself in this thread and apologize because it turns out that I was more wrong than Rosie Rosie O’Donnell in a tutu. The gods are smiting me because as soon as I started this thread, I started getting sent really hot women over 40.
My ex-wife and I had to share a hotel suite at the Arizona Grand last weekend because our daughter was competing in a national gymnastics tournament. Now, I already knew that my ex-wife is objectively hot. It is just a shame that personality transplants haven’t been invented yet. We got into a fight yet again because we can’t be alone with each other without adult supervision and I ended up sleeping on the couch just like we were married again. I got pissed off in the middle of the night and left the room to go to the perpetual firepits outside of the main lobby.
I saw a really hot blonde sitting next to the fire and joined her. She was as sweet as apple pie and only told me her name was Amanda from Ohio. It took me an embarrassingly long time to realize that she was Gold Medal Olympian Amanda Borden. Awesome person, over 40 and gorgeous. Don’t worry, I didn’t hit on her although she is my friend now. I just told her stupid stories like I do here. She is married and her husband joined us later but she did provide a good reference point.
When I got back home, I still had my Russian poker player/millionaire although that was starting to get a little shaky. We weren’t really getting anywhere except for a lot of expensive dinner and casino dates. I finally decided to call it last night and just tell her that I wanted a relationship. The first bomb she dropped on me was that she is really 49 instead of 43 like she claimed before. Not having the sense god gave a goose, I was unphased because she looks like she is in her late 30’s at the most and gorgeous. I went back to her mansion to give her a back rub and was not prepared for her skills when she got turned on. I am honestly wondering if she is a former porn star, if not, she missed her true calling. I am lucky I can still type this retraction. She rode me like a rodeo bull and won. It wasn’t even close.
Most women over 40 are disgusting but certainly not all of them if you know where to look. I was in Arizona with a group of gymnastics moms that fit all of my stereotypes and made it difficult to even finish dinner but I but I could always wander off to talk to the good ones like Amanda or call my Russian poker player when they became too oppressive. It turns out the solution was just to know who to pick and I am getting much better at that.
Read the forum title. Yes, you are correct. I want to start a charity that recycles treadmills and beauty supplies for those in need because a whole lot of them need all the help they can get. Such a waste.
I am heading down to confession soon and I am not even Catholic.
