I am investigating the world of Online Dating.

I think you should get into more casual sex and see where it goes from there, but maybe that's just me.

I don't know how to do that.

You are not a bad-looking fellow RJH. Let your dick do the thinking. It knows more than you imagine.

Unfortunately, my brain tends to override my dick most of the time. Even when I'm drunk! It's annoying, lemme tell ya.

If only it were that easy.

It isn't easy, I agree, but it can be done. First rule of getting laid: have fun. If you are too busy worrying about your work, your mortgage, or your insurance, ladies will avoid you as a dead rat. Second rule: no pressure. Lots of fishes in the sea. If you aren't getting any tonight, don't sweat over it. See first rule. Desperation is not attractive. Third rule: be bold (just like in wikipedia). If you see a girl that catch your fancy, tell her. Be friendly but honest. Most girls will appreciate that. Don't try to be sleazy or cocky: just tell her that your like her hair, her eyes, or her fashion style. Whatever. Make no mistake: girls know that we are looking to score. So be upfront over it: you want to get in her pants, yes, but you also want to know her as a person. Why the two things should be incompatible? Telling "I just want to be your friend" will get you exactly there: in the Friend Zone.

Ok, I sound like I know what I'm talking about, but that's not really so. But I've been out of the "dating scene" for long enough to see how it works. Well, at least around here.

I can see your problem here.

However, being drunk will considerably decrease your possibility of getting laid. I know, it stands against everything we hold dear and sacred, but that's the terrible, terrible truth!

Make no mistake: girls know that we are looking to score.

But that's just it. I don't give a damn about "scoring". I want the emotional connection. Only once that's in place will I start considering physical options.

I know that's not necessarily the best approach, and frankly I want to be attracted to someone just for the hell of it; but it just doesn't happen.

I'm doing the online dating thing in the hopes that if I hang out with enough girls, maybe things will eventually go a different way. Hasn't worked yet.

I know, but being drunk doesn't even lower my inhibitions! Even if I'm unsuccessful in hooking up with someone, drinking should at least make me more willing to let loose.

I mean, I have a blast when I'm out. But most of the random bar girls were the kind that you should try and stay away from for fear of crazy diseases.

 

[Goji]

I didn't meet my girlfriend on an online dating site exactly, but we did get to know each other over the internet and fell in love before we met. That's similar, probably. So far it seems to be going pretty well and I'm hopeful for the future. I hope it works out for you too, RoJo. You're a good guy, and at one time had hair as awesome as mine. Sounds like you've got a start, at least. Hurray! (Not with the hair though. You've got work to do there, pal).

While there may be some truth to your statement, perhaps you will have more success if you are less judgmental.

Just wear a condom.

No, I just need to go to better bars.

There's a bar right near my gym and I like to go late at night to the gym sometimes. I see people leaving the bar drunk and about to have sex or just drunk and about to barf.

Obviously, I don't know you, so I can't tell. But I think that our bodies are wired in a certain way, and if you see a lovely-looking lady, somewhere, somehow, your body just want to get into her pants and do the nasties. Just animal reaction. But everybody's libido is different, so there is not a right answer or approach. I just wish you the best.

I know, but being drunk doesn't even lower my inhibitions! Even if I'm unsuccessful in hooking up with someone, drinking should at least make me more willing to let loose.

You tell me, at the second pint I'm telling everybody I love them and then I start to puke.

Weird. It takes me like half a keg before I start to get like that!

(I drank a lot in college, and I have a ridiculous tolerance to alcohol)

Well, I was more or less kidding, but I have the body mass of small rodent, so I can't get beyond a certain limit or weird things start to happen. Everything in moderation, is my personal motto.

Only to the point where I dislike the idea of someone else showing interest. Not sufficiently to actually prompt me into doing anything about it.

And even that much only comes after I've spent at least a few hours with her, gotten to know her a bit. So long as a girl is just a pretty face I rarely give her a second glance.

Quitter.

I know. I'm a disappointment to my entire gender.

That gives me 5 days to bang a drunk chick. I'm on it.



In the spirit of the original topic, this girl I'm talking to keeps saying all the right things. It's really blowing my mind. She even started talking about how she wants to buy a house with an unfinished basement and build a bar in it! That's, like, one of my dreams!

It's gotta be love if there's building a bar involved.

I'm just surprised that she brought something like that up.

She also has no problem with me being a scifi nerd.
