If there was a girl who I was remotely interested in at my gym, I would go and talk to her. But, no such women are at my gym. And I have pretty low standards!

For some reason, I thought I should post this here.
Thanks Patricia. I used to have that poster in college. Gotta love the beer goggles, although it always sucks when you wake up next to a sea monkey.
Ah yes,
The beer goggles. Can’t say I have ever had mine on…haha. Not a big drinker. Actually, Patricia you are going to be REALLY REALLY ashamed of me…but I have NEVER even had a beer. I know I know…pathetic…;o)
However, I can’t say that I have been immune to the “ugly” chick hook-up. I remember my first BJ and the girl who ahem, performed it. She was just butt ugly and it was probably the worst experience of my life. Can anyone say teeth??? (OUCH)
That beer poster always made me curious. . .how did ugly people have sex before 1862? And I know beer existed before then. . .didn’t ugly people think to drink it before then?
There was some ancient Roman statesman who said, “When the candles are out, all women are fair.”
sometimes i just walk up and whip my dick out and say your place or mine?laugh but it works.
Hey Dan C, I just went on that website you posted. That is f’n hillarious shit. I love when girls who think they are so hot get brought down to earth. That is some funny shit. hahaha, i love it. Some of those lines are genius.
Thanks Dan, that was great.
Bizarre coincidence that the guy on the poster looks like Bill Clinton in a way…LOL
Like in Tony G’s post, that girl in the bookstore walks away so he automatically assumes she didn’t like him or deemed him unworthy. She more than likely was an extremely shy girl who just couldn’t come up with anything to say. She’s probably posting over on Estrogen.net about how this hot dood that put the moves on and she didn’t have anything to say. Men just overestimate women. Let’s face it, the majority just aren’t very bright, that’s why it falls on the males to come up with the talk and approach etc. Its a dood’s game.
Hehe,
Fragile called me a hot dude [blushing]. Just kidding of coarse.
Anyways fellas and ladies, I have yet another chapter to add to my never ending opus to rid myself of my shyness with the ladies. First off, I am starting to think that this “bulking” phase I am going through is helping my confidence. Does added muscle + confidence really = PIMP??? Perhaps. When my ex and I broke up in January, I got down to 180 lbs and even dipped below…YUCK. Today, I am 195 lbs of pure sexiness (well, not really…HEY, I’m humble), but I feel better about myself which speaks volumes.
Okay, so last week I got tongue tied with a girl who was standing next to me browsing books. I talked with her which was a step in the right direction. Point for Tony. Well this past weekend, I took a HUGE step forward and it felt fantastic.
I was at the bookstore (I know, I’m a dork) and I walked into the coffee shop to eat my chicken salad that I brought with me from Applebee’s (speaking of which, that waitress I had a crush on doesn’t work there anymore). I got a few weird stares when I “tweaked” my salad by adding some olive oil, almonds and tuna along with downing my fish oil capsules, but that is besides the point. I went and set my salad at a table and walked up to the counter to buy a bottle of water. As I was waiting in line, I saw this beautiful brunette standing ahead of me. This girl was the epitome of the “girl next door” look which I LOVE. She looked my way and we made eye contact and I was awestruck. Really pretty girl. Well, she walked away and I noticed that she ended up taking a seat at the table next to where I set my salad. So, I sat down and started to eat and I got up to go get a magazine to read. I sat back down and looked up and just out of nowhere said, “how’s the soup?” (she ordered a soup). She looked at me and said, “better than I thought it would be.” At first, I thought to myself, “WTF Tony, who asks such a dorky question??” “How’s the soup??” Come on!! But I had to start the conversation somehow right? Well, I then asked did she go to school and she replied, “yeah Ithaca.” Which was perfect cause I had friends who went there so I asked if she knew any of them, which she didn’t. After about 3 or so minutes I said, “I’m sorry, whats your name?” She said, “Sheera”. Yes, I refrained from the obvious reply…“like the cartoon character…right?” WHEW…thank god. Anyways, to make a long and probably boring (wink wink) story short, we ended up talking for like 10-15 minutes. When she was done with her soup she got up and said it was nice to meet you and walked out the store. Ahhhhhhhhh. I so wanted to take a chance and just say, “You know, I hope I don’t come across as a jerk or anything, but would you want to meet up sometime for dinner?” But I didn’t. I am hoping that maybe I will bump into her again sometime which is likely cause she seemed like the type of girl who visits Borders often.
I know I let everyone down, but I am really proud of myself in that I am actually initiating conversations with these girls, which is so out of my comfort zone… and I think I am coming across as a pretty charming guy…right??..haha.
So thats my story. Sorry for the long rant. Suggestions, comments, flaming are welcome. Tony G
Hey Tony G, it seems to me like your trying to hard. When this happens you usually come across a little too nervous. If your a pimp, things should come naturally and smooth. It looks like your on the right track. Soon talking to women will happen so often that you wont have time to write about every single girl you ever talk to on the forums. Good luck, kid.
Tony G:
Why don’t you just have casual conversation with the married ladies at the gym.
They’re perfect for practice because there is no risk (as long as you don’t let it go anywhere and realize it’s just for fun), and I doubt anyone talks nice to them too much anyway.
Good for their ego and good for your girl-talk practice.
Just a weird idea.
That’s a good idea about the married women. Plus, you never know when they might act on it.
Tony my only advice would have been to not ask her if she knew your friends, they never do. Otherwise nice job.
My little addition to this VERY interesting thread is try the laundry mat, I have gotten so many numbers there. “Im sorry to bother, but is this a dark or a light?”
Were supposed to be clueless there, and most girls have a fun time when the guys are helpless, just dont play it up too much, cause no girl wants a complete wimp.

TonyT,
Yeah, I see your point. I can see how me writing about “talking” to a girl comes across as pathetic and that I am trying too hard. But believe me, I am just rambling. Obviously I talk to many girls…at work and in many other places. Just sharing some experiences is all. Sometimes I take it for granted that we develop friendships here on the forum and I tend to vent about stupid shit. My bad. Trust me…I’m not as “dorky” as I make myself out to be…;O) Take care…Tony
Holy shit Jordo, good thinking. Yet another one I can’t believe I forgot. Apparently some other people have realized that this is a hot spot, because here at OSU we have laundromats that serve beer. One of them is called Dirty Dungarees.
Tony G: I would definitely make the most out of working at the gym. MILF’s would be great to talk to and hone your skills.
So, help a T-brother out. What could I do this weekend to try to meet someone?
I’m gonna second the “asking if you know my freinds line” as most of my friends are like creetins (sp?) somewhat like myself. As for the more muscle = pimp idea see my post on anabolicboard.com High rone= lots of tang. And since we’re all sharing stories here’s one. The other week I’m back in school and I see this cutie who always has a big smile and hello everytime she sees me. I see her looking at me as I come out of class and slow down to a stop and wait for her to come out of class ( don’t know/remember her name/never really spoke to her). She come out of class and says hi/big smile. I reply and say " This is gonna sound crazy but I’ve been thinking about that smile alot this summer. Anytime I was stressed out I’d usually end up passing you and at least for a few minutes you took my mind off things." At this point she might have been embarrassed since she was blushing alot but the smile was still there. Then said I wouldn’t mind seeing that smile on a regular basis and asked for her number. Got it. Been chillin with her from then on and she’s pretty cool…we’ll see:-)
Tony: First of all, that 195 lbs of pure sexiness bit is classic. That got a chuckle out of me.
Secondly, and most important, I’m concerned about the comment you made about wanting to say something to the effect of “I hope I don’t sound like a jerk, but would you like to do X with me.” Bad idea. That’s not an assertive statement. Why are you a jerk? Because you want her number or a date? No way. You’re also planting a bad seed in her mind if you’d have said that. If you see this girl again (and I hope you do), be assertive.
“So…what’s your max bench?” always seemed to work for me. Give it a try.
