How many times is it acceptable for a guy to ask a girl out before his admirable persistence turns into creepy annoyance?


Sideband: For those keeping track at home, I'm 0/1!

it depends. the brute force technique only works on the incredibly weak or fantastically stupid unless you change yours or your target's mate value before trying again.

One thing you can do is win the lottery. this will undoubtedly take you from a 4 to a 5 which is a seriously considerable rank to a 6 or a dumb 7.

If improving yourself seems more difficult than 18 million to 1, you'll want to go with decreasing your targets value. Bring her mediocre 6 looks down to a 3 by throwing acid in her face. if you hit her eyes, even better. even partial blindness can bring an 8 down to a 5. You could possibly even bring her down to a negative number in which case she'd have to pay you to date you. score!

This is incredible advice!! Spazdaq you are truly a cupid for the modern age.

What if I claimed to be say, leader of a small obscure country? She would eventually find out of course, but by then she'll be so infatuated with my electric personality that she won't want to leave! Not even for the real emperor of Kiqassikstan!

i got my girlie by using one of my tried and tested, true-blue pickup lines... best lines i've ever come out with... she told me that if i'd used the other one instead of what i'd used, she would have slept with me the first night

I'm not really a "pick up line" type of person, but you've perked my interest, so spill the beans!

well first of all, they're not the really pathetic kind frat boys favor...
the line i used on traci was "are you a vegetarian?"
"no... why?"
"because i want to know what i can and can't cook when i finally work up the balls to ask you out to dinner"
then i walked away... she came and found me about 10 minutes later :p

the other line is the one she said she would have slept with me on night one had i used it requires 2 things of the girl you're going to use it on...
1: she has a brain
2: she has to have a good sense of humor
those two points automatically exclude 90% of women

grab a handkerchief, cocktail napkin, anything that looks like a small rag really, go up to said girl of interest and hold it just in front of her face and say "does this rag smell like chloroform?"

i've used that line twice... first time, crashed and burned... girl didn't even know what chloroform was... second time the girl just cocked her head to one side and looked at me for about ten seconds, then busted out laughing and said "take a seat"
didn't get any action out of that one, but got a great night of good conversation with a pretty great chick

I love how most of the advice I have received is quite likely to get me arrested.

Wish I could help you here. I just ask them, if they aren't interested - I move on.

Which is funny considering how long-winded I can be.

[hold a good discussion with an attractive person]
I have to get going, lets continue this sometime next week? I know a great steak restaurant nearby.

Although in Marty's case, I joked that he could drive south 13 hours the following weekend and join me at a club.

Sometime later I get a phone call from him asking for the address because he was already half-way to Miami.

Maybe that's how you get a woman to marry you.

i have yet to do the 13 hour trip, but the 3.5 hour trip that was spur of the moment at 11 at night for a girl i'd never met turned into an 8 hour trip because i took one wrong turn and ended up taking a 300 mile detour...

Unfortunately moving on isn't my style. I was raised by a pack of rabid hockey players who didn't include the word "lose" in my childhood vocabulary.

It may be, however again this sort of heroism walks the fine line between romantic gesture and restraining order. Remember the female astronaut that drove 900 miles in a diaper? And I'm not even an astronaut!

We need a thread dedicated to ultron's love-live. Dude is like soap opera waiting to happen.

Meanwhile, the Ghostbusters are beginning to creep me out. *ahem*

the diaper is what pushed that one over the top.

was that the first night we met? haha.

It just occurred to me that everything in this thread is about men who did crazy things for girls who already liked them. This does not help me. I need stories about people who were initially disliked but then prevailed against all odds. You know, like André the Giant, Napoleon, or Ringo Starr.

ask virginia, she's almost won me over

My parents met on a blind date and my mother thought my father was an obnoxious asshole. My father fell head over heels for her and kept showing up on her front doorstep to leave cards with romantic notes in them. After a couple of months she accepted to go on a second date and now they're 27+ years happily married!

They still have all of the cards wrapped up and in a box in the attic. There were well over 40 cards.

I'll try to write 400. What rhymes with "please don't call the cops"?
