But when you ask a woman how their friends act and think you get more useful information. Woman generally are to "close" to themselves to give you an unbiased view of how they think.
God, you're right. I have no clue about women and I have even less clue about myself. What was I thinking?

Here's the bottom line. When I meet a guy, I know right away if he is a yes or a no. Sometimes, I think he's a maybe, but what that really means is that he's a no, but there's a reason I think he should be a yes. Ultimately, he becomes a no. Sometimes a yes becomes a no... and every now and then, a no becomes a yes, for a little while anyway, but usually there is some change of circumstance.

What does that mean, "like but didn't catch"? No comprende.
"like but didn't catch" after 5 minutes turns into "he was too short and his breath was a little, well, off".

after 10 minutes, never thought of again.

(flinty, looks like your stock is rising. don't post for a while and you'll retake Spanky on the crush lists.)
Unlike Less, it never occured to me to use this board to get dates. I don't ever expect to "date" anyone on this board. And I don't really care what people think of me. If what I am saying offends people so be it. If you knew my history you would know that I am not being arrogant about this. I have put a lot of thought time and effort over the past twenty years on how to pursue woman. Over the past five years I realized that I missed out on a lot in life because I was so focused on that single pursuit. But I took it very seriously. And I have been pretty successful.

I suspect "like but didn't catch" translates to "sure, she never called again or returned my 4731 messages, but that's just because she knew I was too hot to handle."

Upshot for Spanky

Your best bet is to hope that Serbian chick is a gold digger, and that will only help if you actually have enough gold to be worth the effort of digging. Maybe you should suggest going to dinner someplace that is in or really, really close to an area with expensive boutiques -- and say, hey, we could go shopping before dinner and pick out a nice outfit for you. Gold digging women seem to be particularly amenable to accepting clothes. And if she brings up any plastic surgery she wants, or anything else, but that she can't quite afford or is waiting until she can afford it, tell her what a good idea it is and why should she have to wait, you'd be more than happy to help her out.

I wasn't talking about getting dates. Just winning friends and influencing people. You never know when you might need character references for the sentencing phase of your Wacoesque endeavors.

What do you mean by "date"?

Dude, its this "catching" thing thats all wrong. If you're looking to bang some aerobics instructor with a headfull of hellium,* you "catch" a chick. BUT, if you want to meet a serious woman, you don't "catch" her. There's no fucking strategy. Strategy's for a job interview - fo lying to fat old scumbags who only want to hear themselves talk. Just be your fucking self.

You lost the Serb because she wasn't into you. So what? I've met dozens chicks who weren't into me. Stop protecting your ego by pretending there was some "game" going on which you lost. There was no game. She wasn't into you. It wasn't the calls. it wasn't the timing. It was you. You didn't "work" for her. So what? Try someone else.

There are no tricks. You're either in or out from very soon after you meet.

*Because its provides good aliteration, which I'm all about.

Spanky, take this with a grain of salt. Just last night all of the other FBetties and I were gossiping about bnb on the phone and by email and text message and commenting about how we would NEVER do in our relationships what SHE does in hers. Not that we don't just love her to death, but the girl is Dysfunctional with a capital D! Plus, we all think it looks like she's had some work done.



(Actually, Spanky, just between you and me, all the other FBetties are dysfunctional too, but I just went along with the gossip because I didn't want them to think I was smug. Women can be so jealous of each other and they will just turn on you without warning.)
