Lucky for you there is a wealth of information on the internet dedicated to helping guys pick up girls.
There is a following, that came mainly after Neil Strauss (sp?) published his book "The Game", that is dedicated to getting guys to pick up & rail out girls. They call it "sarging".
The forum where they discuss is http://www.theattractionforums.com/forum/index.php
Start out in "best of the forum", "classic writings", or "discussion". Now, most of their posts are about picking up girls, and going through these pre-designed steps that lead to a female's trust, comfort etc. etc.
These are not the reasons I (and some others) use the site. There are vast sections on stuff that shy people need to figure out. How to approach, how to start a conversation. Body language that should be avoided. Tips on dress, grooming, basic hygeine.
Personally, I like to go on there and read the threads full of quirky one-liners that get girls to chuckle. For example, if I'm talking to a girl and she drops something - respond with a sarcastic "see- this is why we can't own nice things". It gets a laugh, and subconsciously infers the possibility of you being together for an undetermined amount of time.
'eh, check it out - it's helped me gain a lot of confidence through it's wealth of information - and can do the same for you i suppose.
Ah yes - i'm posting anonymously because my peers (IRL friends who also read the shroomery) are very immature and would joke endlessly if they knew i read on a sarging forum, hahaha

Moxemerald said: Of course I'm only assuming when you said ask them out on dates you meant the traditional 'The Man pays' kind of date.. in which case i'd like to mention I refuse to pay for women.
I didn't mean that at all. The last "date" I went on involved a couple of beers, a noise show and rolling under fences in the railyard. I am so not down with the traditional man-has-to-pay-and-bring-roses thing. I use the word "date" rather loosely, to just mean one on one hangout with a person you like.

Tip:
When you meet people (friends-of-friends or whoever,) make sure you say enough so that they remember you. When you're self-conscious, it's tempting to say nothing. This is a social death trap. Just make sure you provide some voluntary input to the conversation. Always always.

perhaps you should have read the post.
I referenced him to the site so he can gather some pre-arranged material of funny things to say in the event that he is conversing with a woman he has interest in.
Having a large amount of pre-arranged jokes and lines relieves the pressure of not knowing the right thing to say. You don't have to think of anything - because it's been thought for you. Once you've gained confidence and comfort conversing with women naturally, the pre-arranged lines can be dumped for original material.
I didnt suggest the guy go on there and start sarging to rail out chics on the daily, just to go get some of the VERY USEFUL information that is stored there.
I believe this (and my original) post serve SOME purpose (while it may be minimal), and thusly - are productive.

Anybody who's read The Game and doesn't believe there is any useful information in it has not actually read it.
Pickup artistry as a whole makes me nauseous, but there are some social fundamentals that can be learned from that and other similar books. Just take what you can get from it.
No reason to tear this guy a new asshole, he's only trying to help. If you want to shit on someone's ideas, try a different forum.

You should test it in a gay bar and see what happens

I may be an ass, but I'm also a woman, and a rather socially insightful one at that, so my perspective is a little more relevant and helpful than a cheeseball website for losers and creeps. Any woman with even half a brain can see through that garbage in a second.

Discuss?
Once I lost my virginity, I realized how lame it was that I was so concerned about getting rid of it in the first place. It was a disappointment. If I could do it all over again, I'd wait until I found a girl that I truly respected and had some sort of connection with instead of sticking my dick in the first opening I saw.

Funny, because when I lost my virginity I realized how pointless it had been to wait. I held out for awhile wanting to be 'in love', and when i finally did it I really did love the guy, but we were drunk at a halloween party and it was sloppy and bad. It wouldn't have been any worse to have just gone for it with a previous boyfriend. But it doesn't matter, because losing your virginity isn't a big deal.
