If you can pass my sister test you're gold.
My sister at a bar. Guy walks up to her,
Guy: I would offer to buy you a drink but I see you have one already.
Sister: That's ok, you can reimburse me.
Guy: Hahaha
Sister: No, I'm serious.
Guy walks away cuz he has nothing.
If you can come out swinging at that, you're good to go.0 -
Then you, sir, are a hidden gem in the dating world. Women can teach a guy some confidence - as long as you're ok one on one with her.

first awful approach to someone who already has a drink. What are you trying to say about your sister?
My sister is amazingly awesome and hilarious.
That is what I'm saying.
The 'test' as I'm calling it, is not so much about the approach, but if you someone shoots your first attempt down, do you engage or give up? Can you pick yourself up and have fun with it?
For example, if he said - "shoot, I only have credit cards, but I have a taco bell gift card in my wallet I can give you."
Sold. He just created an opening an opportunity to determine compatibility over a drink.
And if he had said 'Ok. Here's however much the drink was and I'll buy you another when you're done."0 -
It's a woman's confidence thing, definitely.
I've been attracted to all forms of male. Never bothers me one way or another. Fit and unfit, men are each very different. My choice of men has nothing to do with six-pack or no.0 -
Generalizations.
Breast size is not important as long as she has a great sense of humor.0 -

So the test is get rejected and see what happens? See if you're persistent? LOL
No. That is not the test.
That is someone calling you out on a bad line and seeing if you're willing to engage in wits and really want a conversation. It is giving the guy an opening to show you're compatible - which is the point.
If the guy was just trying a line and doesn't want to engage. He walks away. Fail.
If he tries to engage wits? Opening. Potential win.
If he replies with honesty: 'I'm sorry about that line - I was just trying to find a way to approach you. Can I get the next round?' Win.
Anyway, sorry to hijack the thread for a bit. Six packs vs. bellies. Discuss.0 -
Although offering to buy a girl a drink may be a weak approach I don't think it really falls under the "line" category.Then you, sir, are a hidden gem in the dating world. Women can teach a guy some confidence - as long as you're ok one on one with her.

persistance definetly not a plus in this arena lol.0

Even if that were true, a 6-pack is not necessary for a strong core.
oh really, what part of your body would it strengthen then?
doesn't matter anyway. The abs pull the pelvis an inch or two closer to the sterum... a motion some men use during sex lol
Please read my post again, as you seem to have misread it. I did not say that men with 6-packs do not have a strong core.0 -
Why don't women buy the guy a drink? :huh: :huh:
I concur w/ N_F_L
Persistence in this arena is total B.S.0 -
well, I don't have one yet. How bout you buy ME one, then the next round is on me?
Kidding, but I'm curious how this would play out.
Borderline arrogant response depending on delivery.
If it was my sister? She'd have another right there for you that would require another witty response. You have to be willing to engage in conversation.
My sisters are tough. Beautiful, smart, witty and taken - if you can engage with them you need confidence in spades. Which is what I was trying to drive at.
that's the point- if you can engage and keep up- you're worth talking to. If you can't- you're not worth it. I"m the same way. I'm not even dating and I still have the same conversations- its just no fun having boring conversations with people.
I wound up at a place once at 3 AM (not my choice but whatever) and I had a scarf on my head (lace thing) and I was preening(I admit) and not drunk- but the guy was wasted.
stumbles up to me and goes
OH- Are you... what's it called.
OH YEAH- Religious- you know- that Muslim thing?
...lol- um- no.
So he presses on- SHOCKED FACE- WAIT.... like ARE YOU IN MOURNING??
I couldn't I couldn't let it go.
Yes.
OMG I"M SO SORRY.
yeah- I had him going for a while.
but yeah- if you can't figure out how to TALK and take a joke- it's over. and over fast.0 -

I never approach anyone... I'm too shy.
Could be why I never dated much. There seems to be a connection. lol0 -

seems like there's a more friendly way of doing that.0 -

Someone who can engage a stranger in an enthralling conversation certainly has a lot of 'game'.
It would be wrong to assume that those who do not possess the particular gift are incapable of meaningful and stimulating conversation when they know you better or are otherwise more comfortable.
clearly this plays into the confidence thing though0 -

Yes. Yes there is.
But if you were after friendly, you would learn really quickly that my sisters weren't for you.
And as a note - my sisters have bought guys drinks at a bar. But again, my sisters have confidence in spades - which is what this sidetracked conversation was about.0 -

I always buy first rounds/drinks (I don't drink either- bring on the coffee) and I have had more then one guy get mad at me.0
