wtf is going on itt

Dhcg i am sure a lot of the stuff going through your head seems smart but wow i wish you could see yourself through other posters eyes.

Half your posts are like you are leveling... except you arent.

Well I know not to challenge you guys to a game of Ghost Recon or anything...


Hey I will admit that I have a chivalrous side to me. You want a good girl you need some of that. I am only 31, so I am apart of the video game/techno age. I will destroy all of you on most NES games!

I was pretty crazy in highschool. Honestly I'm pretty lucky I haven't had anything else. Lots of unprotected sex.
Last 2 years though I've settled down and been with my girl now for just over a year, and no cheating.

But yeah needless to say I was pretty pissed when I found out I got chlamydia from my girlfriend. Oh she also cheated on me with two dudes in the same night.

If first contact is text it really needa to be fluff before getting to the point either over a call or irl...

0/4 this week ib Melbourne its ok ship main and be 2000% roi for week...

Fwiw friend of mine shipped four straight tournaments with fields of 90 102 45 and 80...

Social media IMO is more a friend thing than not. We get on FB to brag, interact with friends, complain, and w/e else. Dating sites have taken off that's for sure. People do talk through email/text and possibly some phone calls, but the impressions that stick out the most are IRL. They get the first real look at you (this is already done for SABR) and they get to know you are by the way you carry yourself. We already know SABR has a huuuuuuuuuuuge e-peen, but how confident is he IRL? This girl is a car girl. She likes visual. She likes seeing a hot guy in a fast car. She probably day dreams about it. She doesn't want someone who plays Legend of Zelda (btw, I beat that ish on Super NES!). She might have that side to her, but that's down the road when she gets comfortable with you. I ran in a car group for a long time. You need to impress them with confidence and visual IRL stuff. The only text I would send her is a pic of a car I just bought and I plan on taking her in. Save the texting for when you guys are comfortable with each other. Or.... screw it, go ahead and text away. When you do finally meet IRL good luck on being you. She is going to have some false sense of who you are through your texts that you are going to have a hard time living up to. Forget all that. Stick with what got you the number... IRL convo.

Played at crown 1st time 2 weeks ago when on hols there. Loved it. 2/4 is good there.

Oh, you are clearly irritated.

You forgot about putting some pomade in your hair, too.

Seriously, though, women aren't a video game, they are human beings, and they like human interaction. Texting is way below anything live in terms of your ability to influence them.

Speaking of texts, I recently started talking to someone I haven't for ages and we're having bi-daily message conversations, I guess that's about as stretched out a conversation that isn't a pen pal or whatever those things were. They are all like 5 paragraphs long though. Novel writers gunna novel write.

I don't think it has to be bad to talk through texts. Let's face it that's what friends do between themselves anyway, or at least girls do, so it's more comfortable territory. Obviously talking face to face is a bit more natural (if you're good at it... lol @ we're live players mirite?) and people tend to be softer face to face (harder to be cruel/mean/unsympathetic). With messages you can sort of think about what you should say though.

Obviously there can be overdoing things:

Seriously the reason dating sites work is because people get on there to find dates. That's not why the average person is on facebook - they are there to communicate with their friends.

Ok, I can see how this situation calls for less texting though, well explained.

So how would you approach a girl from say a dating site? My thought was if initial convo went well, get the number, text a bit until she's comfortable and reads are she's interested. Then call and/or look to meet up, avoiding constant texting.

SABR - also, at 20, she is likely going to want a couple dates and stuff before she wants anything serious unless she's already had a lot of bfs and experience. Then she'll be ready to drop the pretense.

Once you turn like 26 though...

Why I miss Myspace.
Hooked up with so many hott emo girls.
Facebook is a lot more personal.

She didn't give you her number so you could have a cute texting relationship. The point of thtexting should be to set up a date, not find a texting buddy. Be reasonably assertive and break through to the next step, usually via a phone call.

Yeah, that's what I've done. The goal is to make plans within first 5 or so texts in that spot, not texting buddy

omg dhcg is telling me about his ban, what an idiot.

I never used a dating site. When I was a young whipper snapper (old joke FTW) dating sites were for desperate people or so the stereotype went. I think The Rumor said it right, "Seriously the reason dating sites work is because people get on there to find dates." People are expecting to get emails so the ice breaker has been established. It should be ez game. I think the hardest part would be to be the same person in email that you are IRL. If you're funny in text, but shy IRL it ain't going to work out real well. It's like the internet. People can act all bada** and talk crap to someone they don't know and behind a screen, but if they met IRL more than likely all that jive won't happen.

APD for mod IMO

Problem with dating sites is 98% of the girls are ugly or fake and the rest get contacted 30000 times a day.

My ex housemate's parents met on a dating thing (company/meet up? whatever). They've been happily married for aaages, so I don't think the stigma against it is entirely incorrect. There are a bunch of people out there who want to meet new people for romantic/sexual reasons. You find out what they're like, and find out more if you like what you see and hear, it proceeds in a pace both party would like it to proceed in, until someone decides to drop out or they continue. I don't see what's wrong with that.

yeah if you move to a new city and don't have many friends then dating sites are a pretty good tool.

They are definitely interesting and can be useful but a similar amount of work goes much further if you are looking in actual places.

Dating sites have become a little more legit, respected, and accepted. There are still worries about it though, especially for women. Is this guy a stalker, a rapist, just wanting to hit, etc... I think they have come a long way though. I remember the old days of yahoo chat or aol chat and the a/s/l thing... then along came this guy...



and ruined all of our fun!

Heading out. Need to run better at pokerz. I know the girl's shift hours now, so I can find her more easily. Will probably play it cool for now though. I dunno, we'll see.
