Be yourself. Those 2 words cannot be stressed enough.

+50! Best advice anyone can give ya. Unless you are a chronic drooler, like to torture small animals or start every sentence with 'In my considered opinion'. In those cases be someone else - I suggest George Clooney.


2nd best bit of advice: got a slim waist and good legs? Put on a dress! Seriously, during my uni days whenever I went to a fancy dress party I went in drag. Not as a drag queen, or over the top funny, but as hot as my gal-friend who was the same size as me could possibly make me. Short, fashionable and sexy dress, thong, CFM boots, carefully applied make-up - the lot. At every party it seemed all the hottest girls in my course that wouldn't usually look at me twice couldn't wait to get under my skirt! Messed me up for a while - I was getting more sex with women AS a woman than as a man!

Even when I met my wife at Confest years later, I wasn't in drag but I was wearing a sarong Seriously - if you have the figure - put on a dress.

I have a very un-PC theory about why that happens. I have also noticed a certain inherit 'passive attraction to other women' pattern of behavior from the opposite sex.

I would say build up your confidence and self esteem first. Get a new haircut, have a shave, do some exercise and lay off the junk food, Have a wash and Iron your clothes before meeting someone new for the first time. First impressions are important. Also if you are not normally social, get some practice making conversation with some family and friends. lol not really any tips for picking up, just let it happen naturally.

I remember sitting in the food court once and witnessed a couple meet, it looked like a blind date or something. The woman was dressed well, and her expression when she first saw the guy , I would say she looked a little uneasy.
He was unshaven, looked a little messy. Not being judgemental, actually felt concerned for the guy. Maybe he is a genius, never know might of worked

The missus cracked up laughing. It didn't even occur to me when I typed the title for the thread. Very witty.

There's a sealed section on the board for the not so serious tips?


In my considered opinion, My advice is to watch Agony Uncles / Agony Aunts on the ABC. Not sure if it will be screening repeats in the near future. In my considered opinion Not a bad show. In my considered opinion, For those who are more adventurous, the Barney character in 'How I met your mother' has many of tips. In fact I remember Barney having a book of 'rules' on this topic.

Confidence and self esteem are the key. If you lack that, you won't get far.
