1) The most important thing is to be confident about yourself. They don't like insecure guys, they want to feel safe when they're with a guy.

2) Take the time to actually LISTEN to what she has to say. You'd be surprised at the results.

3) Be the first to make a move, but don't be too sudden about it. Play it cool and wait till the time's right. In case this fails, be prepared to apologize.

4) It's not a drag race, it's more like a long enduring marathon. Take the dates slow and steady and in the end you'll turn out to be the winner.

That's all I can think of for now.

Well I sure can't give you any pointers. I meet a girl about once in a blue moon (where the hell are all the single chicks?) and when I do, I can't seem to make anything last longer than a month.

Im in the same boat sort-of.
Every time I get to talking with one and I think all is going well, I hear something that usually starts with "my boyfriend..." :nutkick:
I've found a few that like me for who I am, a "very sweet and nice guy" as I'm told, but then turn for the typical a-hole which I'm not. Then they come crying to me when something bad happens and tell me again how sweet I am.

I guess you have to start out being an ass, then morph back into mr. nice guy. Haven't tried that yet but it may be worth a shot.

youre on the right track, but not quite, you have to be both an asshole, and mr. nice guy

its like the guys who are funny as hell, theyre funny and make jokes, but when a serious matter comes up, the joke ends

im an ass to my girlfriend, not like beating her, cussing at her, insulting her, but calling out her mistakes, stupid shiznit she does, i do make fun of her a bit, but if it upsets her, i will apologise, and if she needs me for something, or a serious issue, im there for her and the asshole side stops

online relationships are a waste of time, ive been in them, and i know a few others here have been too, waste of time

biggest thing i can say, is dont act like youre totally interested, you need a girl to work as much as you do, and if they dont, the relationship doesnt begin, because they put no effort out

generally, i just chill, do my own thing, meet people, talk to them like normal people, and go from there

Well I havent had much luck lately. I work with a girl and her mom that i tried to get with. She is so nice and so HOT!!!! She just got out of a really long relationship, and i was the friend to comfort her. Then i tried to get somewhat more involved and it worked, but she doesnt want another relationship. Her family was kinda dissapointed at her decision, they all like me. Now im just a really good friend and its still cool.

Just try and be their friend just talk and listen. If you find one just talk and then ask them to do something. Then keep making more plans with them until it happens. Take it slow.

One thing I've found out is that the "good friend" thing does NOT work. You're either an acquaintance and then go to boyfriend, or an acquaintance and then go to good friend. Good friend to boyfriend is very rare, as in I have yet to see it happen. Something seems to click in her head and it just blocks all romance-related thoughts. Very strong doses of alcohol might work in unblocking it

Read this first and then reconsider dating: http://foxtbirdcougarforums.com/showthread.php?t=4286

I had the whole "I've got a boyfriend" thing happen to me more than once, and right now as well. She's approaching me as though shes single, then reveals the boyfriend fact. Ah, I'll go for it anyway. My ex is now with a prick who did the same thing, maybe I should jump on the opportunity and to hell with the other guy. All's fair in love and war, correct?

I wish I could give you dating advice, but my history with the lassies has been sketchy at best.

If finding a woman was fishing, I'd be the guy who fell in the river, and found a trout in his boot. Meanwhile, I wasn't even fishing, nor do I even like fish. You see where I'm going with this?

I have no idea how or why I'm married.
