'Girls like sensitive guys, be kind and sweet and give them compliments when you first meet them.'

Fast track to rejection 90% of the time.

As I said in the other thread, I've yet to receive advice regarding relationships. Too be honest, I don't need it, so I don't seek it out or ask for it.

Hey, its my discussion topic from that other thread!
Awesome!

But yeah. I made the mistake of taking advice from someone who was recently dumped.
Never do that. The results are bad.

He'll either tell you to be a doormat, give up all hope at love, or be aggressive. Granted the advice may vary but they sink into those 3 basic areas.

Be nice to girls.

They'll either ignore you or walk all over you. I mean, why wouldn't they? All you're doing is politely asking them for sex.

"Eh, just make out with her on this ride"

Advice was unasked for, and my friend who said it was on the verge of passing out (She'd accidentally let herself get dehydrated.)

Also, I didn't listen to it.

All right, anybody who says to say to stay with a girl despite everybody else telling you to leave her because she is liar, a manipulator, and a cheater...is wrong. If that many people tell you the same supposed flaws in a person, they might be right. I'm basing this on experience and may not apply to all situations.

OT: If you're sense of smell is incredibly impaired and nobody else is seen flirting with the girl, STAY AWAY!!! Got my nose clear (I freaking hate bats...their poo makes it so I can't smell a thing) and learned the truth...all I can say is that I'm glad it didn't go beyond kissing...also, one person (a girl) recommended I stay with the chick and try to teach her the way to cleanliness when we go to a hotel (i.e. showering with her). I'm sorry but, when I end up in a hotel with a girl, it's to get nasty, not clean. Just saying.

I hope you all enjoy those stories but also learn from them.

I could answer the other questions but, basically, I broke up with both girls. The consequences included: a nasty divorce for the first and a psycho stalker who threatened the GF I had after her for the second. Neither was fun.

Me too,which is why I spent my first 26 years on earth getting rejected.

I then acted like an arrogant, self centered asshole for a year and got laid every weekend. It got old real fast.

Then I finally met a girl who liked it when I was nice to her so it all worked out.

Girls love guys with humour.

According to my friends and ex-girlfriends, I'm one of the funniest guys they've ever met. Explain how I'm not hip deep in women?!It's silly really, they just have to enjoy being with you. Most of my exes said they weren't with me purely for my humour.

Weird, over here it does work. Maybe because in this place it's full of pricks who do not respect girls at all.

"There's someone for everyone."


Empty, trite & generally meaningless gesture of attempted sympathy.

Yeah.... mace is awful.
I've gotten that advice before, and it was from girl, who also happened to be hot. I'm guessing this is not one of those hard-and-fast rules that apply in every situation...

Damn ninja.

Yeah, this.

Girls (and I mean "girls" not women) don't like sensitive guys. They either think they're pussies or just stick them in the friend zone and by "them" I mean me.
