    Depends on the woman, an AK would work for me cause I have never shot one. Although, be careful... they scream 'not American made' like the AR-15 is widely accepted to be. Proper firearms safety and etiquette is hot, so make the beverage virgin!

    And wear that smile, that always helps!

    Clearly you didn't grow up where I did.

    Making fun of/teasing a girl is the WORST way to start up a conversation. Yeah it breaks the ice, but at the cost of the dude looking like an all-out douche.

    I was filling up a a gas station, and some guy approached me and the first thing out of his mouth was "Were you like, lost? Hehehe, I noticed you looked confused driving in, and you circled around once before parking. Been driving long?"

    It was clear this was an attempt at being funny. After :huh:ing him, he didn't take the hint, and proceeded to ask me out, and then demanded a reason as to why I sad no!!

    I was like, buddy, how much time ya got?!? Complete idiot.

    Um, your misandry is disgusting. You are lumping all men together as simple minded, sex driven creatures who need to be metered.

    This is what happens when you make stupid choices in men.

    ^That.
    I'm all for waiting until your feel comfortable before you go there, but any man worth dating has matured past the stage in which the excuse that his little head does the thinking for him is an acceptable out to him. If you ask a man in an unhealthy relationship with their partner when the first time they had sex was you'll either get the exact date, or arrogant disregard. If you ask a man in a healthy relationship you'll either get confusion or quiet sidestepping of the question. Why? Because it's not relevant.
    At least that's my experience.

    Obviously not. Oregon has rather liberal gun laws, but the major preference here for long guns seems to be the AR-15, and a variety of hunting rifles. And a good shotgun. I don't know a single person with an AK, but then again... I don't know everyone in Oregon. Not opposed to one, just not buying something I have never fired.

    I saw plenty of stupid *kitten* growing up with drunken idiots and firearms. They don't mix.

    You can have a drink without getting drunk- and if you can't then you have bigger problems. I got 100% on that 104 question Hunters Safety test when I was 12. I grew up in Montana, which speaks for its self. I'm not saying I throw back a 5th and go shoot *kitten*, but a beer and target practice can fix a lot of things in life.

    Nothing like being picked on by someone that's trying to impress you. Lol.

    Worst: I'm sick of white girls. I've always wanted to try a black/mixed girl.
    (You wouldn't believe the number of times this happens. It's disturbing)

    Best: Approach me like a human and not a piece of meat. "Hello, my name is ______. I wanted to introduce myself when I saw you across the room. How are you?"

    ^This! I get this often, and it is extremely insulting.

    It's insulting on many levels.

    I was always curious, if you really like someone and want more than a one night stand with them, what do you do when they try to lead you down that path of KIK and sexting? Do you ignore it and divert the conversation, or do you reply and come across as easy lol

    Why should it not? Sexual attraction and intimacy are a natural part of relationships. If that is all it is, then there is an issue. But excluding it completely will make them move on most of the time.

    Well I think you can flirt and have a good time to show interest to keep their level of interest. But banging or sexting on the first go round is going to get her no where long term.

    I'm not saying you should wait until marriage but at least the guy needs to be emotional vested in her to want a relationship.

    Thats what I mean... I am going through a divorce currently so I have been off the market for like 5 years and with him it was never like that we waited a long time. But now that I am trying to date it seems like every guy is perverse and within the first ten min of meeting me or texting me they try to get me to send pics, sext, and stuff and im like seriously wtf. is it socially acceptable now or something, that people just skip right over the hole dating stage and exciting mental 4play and go straight to the nitty gritty. I probably didnt word this correctly but hopefully you understand what i am getting at
    A lot of guys won't agree with this, but anyway.. I honestly do not want to date a girl that wants to "go to fast". I want to get to know her likes, wants, goals, and who she is as a person (which takes more than a few dates!). I want to have built strong feelings for that person and want to start a relationship before I get to the "nitty gritty". This is the difference between a man and a boy!

    I have a sleeve on my left arm. And honestly... it's pretty friggin' outstanding. It is a major turn off when men with horrendously bad tattoos want to talk shop with me. Blech.

    Worst: Anything instantly regarding my *kitten* or breasts or immediately asking me if I'm single. (you'd be shocked how often that actually happens).
    Best: Opening up with humor or kindness. Extra points for sarcasm.

    If I ever heard someone say that to any of my friends, I'm pretty sure I'd go to jail for punching someone... hard.

    How horrible.
  • The worst was at Publix a few weeks ago...screaming at me across the parking lot.

    "DANG GIRL YOU GOTTA BOYFRIEND"

    "YES"

    "YOU ALLOWED TO HAVE A FRIEND THOUGH RIGHT KNOW WHAT IM' SAYING"

    Just avoid that.


    My boyfriend went about it the right way- just talking to me and making jokes, being my friend for a while before we started being more than that. :3

  • Don't try to impress. It will most likely backfire and come off as pompous

    Say hi, have a normal conversation, ya know, like with a human being? Buy me a coffee if I engage well, if I like you I will say yes, if I don't I will say no.

    Don't talk about how much you love my hair straight up, I have heard it a gazillion times (maybe say it later so I know you like it though lol).

    Don't say "What up ma?"...I don't have any children, I'm not your mother.

    "You looking good in those pants."....yes, I know I look good in my pant, thanks for noticing, not that I care.

    "Yo big booty!"....need I say more about why you should not approach a lady with this line?

    Please don't try to flex your muscles, don't tell me about the car you drive or the POTENTIAL job you HOPE to have in a few weeks. Please just relax, and let it flow.

    1. Why open it when you can hike it up.
    2. You know me better than that.

    Oh me me me I have one.... I was at the gas station pumping gas and this guy looks at me and says I don't want to scare you when I start my truck because the engine makes it really loud. (looks at his truck that probably is compensating for other things. try's to talk further. Me: I know my boyfriends truck does the same thing......
