So, when I was 14, I went to these church-sponsored dances with my friend. It was pretty much the only social life my mom would let me have at that age, and it happened every weekend.

They were mostly as awful as you can imagine, girls in modest dresses standing around waiting for the guys in ties along the walls to ask them to dance. I eventually got tired of never being asked, so started doing some asking myself.

There was this one guy. He was breathtakingly beautiful. I was imagining the children we would have and our perfect life together, every time I saw him. It took me about a month of dances to actually work up the courage to ask him to dance. I was nervous. Like, shaky hands no idea what to say nervous. He being a gentleman didn't say no when I asked him.

So, we're dancing. I'm hoping he doesn't notice my shaky hands or how sweaty they are getting, and suddenly really worried my breath might stink, even though I had a fresh piece of gum in my mouth. I really like the song that's playing, and decide that was going to be my conversational ice-breaker.

"I love this song," I say. It was With or without you.

He smiles for the first time since I asked him to dance and says " I love U2."

I freak out, thinking maybe he didn't hear me. Did he really say that? am I going to have beautiful perfect children with this guy? I need to make sure he didn't mistake what I said, so I repeat myself: "I like this song."

He gives me this look, like are you fucking retarded? and says "Yeah, I like U2, the band?"

That was the end of the conversation, and I spent the rest of that song red-faced, walked away as soon as it was over, and then hid in the restrooms for the rest of the night.

I stopped going to those dances shortly thereafter.

tl;dr by request: was a SAP at a dance and thought guy was telling me he loved me. Realised he was talking about the band & never showed my face at those functions again.

What you didn't know was that guy liked you, and spent the rest of the time wondering what happened to the quirky girl he had a crush on.

[–]bekito 30 points31 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Yeah... most likely not. I wasn't the kind of girl that guys had crushes on. My mom would try to cheer me up when I'd cry to her about never being asked to any school dances, or having a boyfriend or even being asked on a date by telling me guys were just too intimidated by my beauty, but really pretty gorgeous girls didn't seem to be having the same problems. I had guy friends, but I was the recipient of the reverse-friendzone by so many of them.

[–]stasibornagain 6 points7 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

"Sluts" are great in bed. Also essential for the fabric of society. Single guys wouldn't get out as much if they didn't have hopes of getting laid.

BTW....I think its total bullshit that promiscuous women are called "sluts" while promiscuous men are called studs.

Funny thing...if you ask men what they would be like if they were female, most say they would be a "slut". I am curious what I would be like. For all I know, I might get tired of men and sleep with women. I have no idea.

[–]redditmeastory 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

As Jim Jefferies points out. It is hard to be a stud, it's easy to be a slut. You can be an ugly slut or a fat slut. There are no ugly studs, or fat studs. I am paraphrasing and can't exactly remember the bit, ahh, he is classic.

"Who’s the Boss?

When the Lord made man, all the parts of the body argued over who would be boss.

The brain explained that since he controlled all the parts of the body, he should be boss. The legs argued that since they took man wherever he wanted to go, they should be boss. The stomach countered with the explanation that since he digested all the food, he should be boss. The eyes said that without them man would be helpless, so they should be boss. Then the asshole applied for the job. The other parts of the body laughed so hard at this that the asshole became mad and closed up.

After a few days…

The brain went foggy, the legs got wobbly, the stomach got ill, and the eyes got crossed and unable to see. They all conceded and made the asshole boss.

This proved that you don’t have to be a brain to be boss…

Just an Asshole."

[–]kalimashookdeday 5 points6 points ago

Excellent advice. Reddit needs to stop thinking in this general "formula" to get a girl. Each person requires their own formula and it's up to you to identify based on first impression which formula has the highest probability of success.

If you people start thinking in these terms versus "tell me 1 thing that I can do to get a girl" - maybe you all will get some poon every now and then.

It's funny how these are (extreme generalization ahead) people who spend their lives working on different strategies to beat different video game scenarios, especially vs. other people. One would think their brains would be tuned to finding a good strategy in any scenario, but it doesn't seem to work like that when you take them out from behind the computer.

Some people like to dance around the fact (and it is a fact) but women love to be treated like shit and will always fuck a guy who treats them like he's doing their pathetic ass a favor over a guy who's really sweet to them. Not that I'm complaining, I just treat women like shit when I wanna get laid, it's not hard, but it's inconvenient.

As much as you guys want to sit here and talk about how this guy won't get laid and bla bla...

You are fucking clueless. Women respond to this shit like you wouldn't believe.

Want to know how to make a woman less interested in you? Tell her you love her. Response to her message with 'i Love you too. That is the quickest way for her to realize you are a pussy and there is no chalenge.

Want to keep a woman? Act just like this guy. He isn't blatantly being an ass, he is making a joke instead of returning the compliment. This makes women wet as fuck. Try to say he's an ass and it doesn't work all you want, but this guy is getting laid tonight and probably breaks up with many women... while none of them would ever break up with him.

[–][deleted] 30 points31 points ago

As a female.. I disagree.

I won't lie, I dated a smartass, asshole like this guy (last year)... Until I came to my fucking senses and dumped him because he was a piece of shit and treated me like crap.

Girls may be interested in you for a while, until they grow up.

But. It all depends on the girl, and the guy. Generally putting a smartass like this, with a shy girl (like myself) together won't last long. But putting a smartass with another smartass might work.. It's all relative.

Also, to guys who claim that don't act like this guy, and are nice. Maybe try finding a NICE girl, instead of going after that preppy, slutty, self-absorbed slut with her tits hanging out.

Where do I find one of those? The only nice girls I've ever met have either been already in a relationship or been too focused on their career or education to want to be in a relationship.

Also, where can I find a "nice girl" who doesn't go around insulting other women for their lifestyle and fashion choices?

When girls say "nice" like this they really mean "fat"

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points ago*

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I know it's hard. I'm not trying to be overly harsh to guys. It's hard for anyone (regardless of gender) to find someone you're really compatible with.

All I can say is dig deeper. There are so many girls out there who would LOVE to meet you. I promise. As a female who is considered chubby, and not very "girly-girl" I'm rejected all the time. Guys never look at me. I don't want to push anyone to lower their standards (because I know you can't help liking a certain body type, or look) but do a double take. I often purposely make friends with HUGE nerds that no one ever talks to, and I'm ALWAYS open to the possibility of a relationship. I consider myself a very open person, and have dated people I didn't initially find attractive (physically), but I didn't pass them up, and often ended up having a great relationship, and really grew to appreciate the person. My advice is to look in the places you wouldn't usually look.

I think most girls who are insulting other women for their lifestyle/fashion choices, are either too wrapped up in themselves, or too competitive. I'm not sure why.. but girls seem to always be hating on other girls. I hate that about my gender. There are women out there who are less judgmental of others :)

Good luck! Don't give up!

[–]ColdShoulder 20 points21 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

The thing is that this guy isn't even really being a smart ass. He's just making a few tongue in cheek comments. If he did this all the time, then yes, it wouldn't last long. But that's just the point. Doing anything all the time won't bode well. Life is about spontaneity and keeping things interesting. Getting a girl a single flower, let's say a tulip because she told you a month ago it was her favorite flower, will do much more for both involved than, say, getting her flowers every week.

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I agree with you. There's a huge different to me in being a smartass and just being mean. There's a line where too much is too much. Some guys know that line, and some don't. The asshole I dated definitely didn't.

I'm not saying its bad to be like this guy. It's funny, and everyone loves wit :) But some people don't know when they're dipping into the realm of insensitivity. The trick (for guys AND girls) is to have just enough douchebag-ness in you :P

Indeed. I think that really is the key: to tease someone or give them a hard time in a way that lets them know you care about them. And honestly, I find this is crucial to all relationships: romantic and platonic.

Maybe try finding a NICE girl, instead of going after that preppy, slutty, self-absorbed slut with her tits hanging out.

Oh god.. you're the girl equivalent of those self proclaimed nice guys. Have you thought about the possibility that men are attracted to confident girls who couldn't give two shits about people who call them sluts just because of what they wear?

Being a good person has nothing to do with the way you dress and I'd take a girl who could take a joke over an oversensitive (insecure) woman who would question my feelings for her after a stupid joke any day.

Of course reddit would take something that's obviously very sarcastic and turn it into "OMG SEE, ASSHOLES ALWAYS WIN AND NICE GUYS FINISH LAST". Maybe, they joke around a lot with each other, who knows? Lots of successful couples make sarcastic digs at each other, it doesn't mean the guy is an asshole. It just means he has a particular sense of humor.

Want to keep a woman? Act just like this guy.


this guy... probably breaks up with many women

You seem to have contradicted yourself, there. There's a lot more to keeping a girlfriend than making them "wet as fuck." That works for, like, a few months. Unless you, you know, want a fulfilling relationship. For either party.

[–]ginimegs 3 points4 points ago

I respectfully disagree. It's no secret that being sarcastic, clever, unpredictable or SOMETIMES even being outright mean can work on a girl. But you have to consider the type of girl that's working on. Where she is in her life, what sort of standards/esteem she has for herself, etc.

Just based on the language you use it's clear you don't approach dating the way most MEN do. Most MEN thoroughly enjoy treating women with respect. Yeah fucking their brains out is nice too. But guess what... fucking someone's brains out feels a lot better when you're doing it to someone who you know is smart, has good self esteem, and likes you because of your qualities and not because you're some fucking puzzle they can't figure out.

Making girls "wet as fuck" by being an asshole is not an entertaining or sustainable way to live your life unless you're a sociopath. It's childish and quite frankly despite whatever success it might bring you (in so far as sexual conquests are concerned) it's indicative of as many of your own flaws as it is of the girls you practice this behaviour on.

Telling a woman who you love after an appropriate amount of time that you love her does not make her think you're a pussy unless she has issues of her own. You do not need to be an ass to keep a woman. Not if you're a real man.

[–]Iloledatmyself 3 points4 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I think you're missing the point. the point is not to be an asshole. the point is to communicate that you are:

  • funny
  • not afraid of her/intimidated
  • dont take life too seriously
  • confident

If you're being an asshole you may create some attraction, but the girl will ultimately not like you because, well, you're an asshole. Contrary to what people are saying, this does not work only on women of low self esteem as well. That this only attracts poor quality women makes no fucking sense. In my experience (I have gone from being the friendzone guy to using this approach and having MUCH better luck) it really works best on women who are very intelligent and confident. I had a girlfriend who I couldnt tease too much because she would get really self conscious and not know if I was joking. She had very low selfesteem and lost of issues from past bad experiences. I had to tone it down with her, and I ultimately broke up with her.

However, the really confident and successful women I have dated absolutely loved my attitude and spat it right back at me, which made things really fun.

TL;DR this type of attitude works best on the most beautiful and intelligent women, who get the humor and dont get offended as easily. aka the girl every guy wants.

A woman has absolutely no sense of humor if the joke involves her in any way — especially if you're in a romantic relationship with her because, as we all know, she's doing you a favor. :sarcastic emote:

But you can still be an asshole and get laid, no doubt about it.

[–]IHateMostOfYou 3 points4 points ago

Completely wrong. Notice a stalker stalks harder when the victim tries to get away. Now apply that to this. People want what they can't have, don't give her the satisfaction.

Family, friends, committed couples, and obsessed stalkers say, "I love you." Hookups, flings, and dating couples don't say that, so hope you enjoy your new friend because you've been zoned.

How not to get laid: be a nice guy and let girls walk all over you.

Call it misogynistic, call it bullshit, whatever, but the fact is, when you're the age where chasing pussy is your number one calling in life, females of a similar age respond to being challenged or ignored.

[–]bizarrokate 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Girls respond to being interested and yes, maybe challenged a little. If she knows that she can definitely have you and you are so complimentary and flattering that it's pathetic, then no, that's not attractive, because she would obviously be completely dominant in the relationship instead of having the possibility of a stimulating partnership.

Believe it or not, you can stop being an introvert. It's actually not that difficult, if you're willing to take it slow and gradually. In general, I think it's always a good idea to push yourself a little bit every day to be the person you ultimately wish to be. A year or two later, you find that you're a lot closer to being that person than you used to be.

I've found that only works if it goes both ways. If she teases back and you get all "fuck you" then expect the worse. Also, girls with low self esteem have a tendency to not know when you're being serious and when you're not. Have to be careful with that shit, sometimes it's not worth it.

[–]lefrisbee 13 points14 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Just my two cents, but I think that there's a fundamental difference between two types of behavior which both get labeled with the word "asshole." The first is behavior which actively works to upset or hurt other people. An example of this is drawing someone's attention explicitly to one of their insecurities. For example, calling an overweight person "fat."

The second behavior resembles the first in form and language, but the subject, motivation, and response are essentially opposite. The purpose of this behavior is primarily to generate humor and to assert dominance without eliciting a negative response. To repeat the example above, one exhibiting this behavior might tease someone for something about which he/she is clearly not insecure. This person might call a very skinny girl a "fatass" if she eats a substantial amount at a meal. If done correctly, this behavior can have powerful positive effects for the person using it and the recipient.

Given certain pieces of evidence from the posted conversation, I would say that the speaker uses the latter behavior. If someone is interested in why I think that, let me know and I'll add it into this post.

This second behavior is much more difficult to successfully achieve, probably because there is a very specific tone that the speaker must use, and being either too polite or too harsh completely ruins the effect.

dont know why it hasn't been said before but it really comes down to people wanting what they cant have. Woman for some reason to tend to like being treated like shit, and I use the term very loosely. Were all gentleman I hope, so when I say treat woman like shit, I mean it just like the caption OP provided.

Woman like to be taken, they like to be grabbed and im pretty sure they dont like thinking about shit. Confidence and not giving a shit about petty woman crap is exactly what you need to be to get laid. Being funny is the best solution but I choke infront of really hot chiks.

Also I think I might just go around telling girls that I have a girlfriend because whenever I do, I literally get offered sex by about every chik I know
