Girls love confidence, they don’t want to attend a pity party.
16 year old boys are liked the most by 13-14 year old girls(13 is a bit young imo even if they like you). When your 16, most of the attractive girls in your age group go for +18 year old guys.
A minority of girls seem to go out with guys their own age.
Just focus on humility in passionate pursuit of something that serves others. Be kind to people and thankful for the blessings you have the the lessons learned from adversity. You will find much more meaningful relationships with the girls who are attracted to those elements than the ones who care about your modeling or working out, or your fake, practiced walk.
If that’s you in your avatar pic, then I’ll put my tool in your bag.
You should start treating women like shit. You do this long enough and somebody will finally kick your ass. Maybe that’ll knock some humility into you and some of the stupid teenager out of you.
Focus on having a life worth living instead of trying to be a puppet master of the fairer sex. That pick up artist bullshit doesn’t work on women worth having.
You are not very good at noticing when I do not post in certain threads because nothing I would have to say would be particularly helpful…
However, if I wanted a succesful, “healthy” ? relationship, well, if I was willing to take on the baggage some people on this board seem to be perfectly fine with, raping my own sexual instincts, completely submitting to the female imperative, I think I could do that.
But I don´t wanna…
Just remember, however insecure you are, girls your age are like that, squared.
Learn how to get them really laughing and then just use that like a little bit here and there like a spice ie dont be a clown
I found the book ‘How to Be the Jerk women love’ pretty helpfull when younger(less douchey than it sounds). Especially the part about how women pursue a man who puts his own passions first second and first.
You said in in the other thread that you were applying for Sandhurst/join the military -in the long term that will help in a myriad of ways
I don’t know what all these terms like neg, pulling, game, kino, etc are, but it sounds like something for people who are too shitty to show their true self. Why do you have to hide who you are?
Dunno, why do women use push up bras, high heels and make up?
Because, um, human mating is competitive and partly based on deception?
If someone tells you to practice listening skills, or be kinder, or more polite, is that also hiding who your really are? What about basic hygiene, staying in shape, or dressing nicely?
Figuring out how to be more effective at social interaction is no different. Human mating doesn’t have to be based on deception, but it is always based on people figuring out how to be better, not just “being who they are.” Making yourself a better person is not “hiding who you are.”
Using deception and playing games are not about ‘being a better person’
You seem to have jumped to a pretty quick conclusion about terms that you don’t know.
Maybe, but getting laid and “being a good person” are two different magisteria that barely even touch.
Unless you are one of those that believe that women reward virtue, which they obviously do not.
Or if you think better means more successful at achieving what you want.
“…when I was younger.” Hello, you are sixteen years old! ![]()
“I do not know how to get them chasing me, going after me and wanting me.”
You might never be a guy who women chase after! Most men were never in a position in which they had to fight women off and there’s no point in trying to be one of these men. Likewise, judging from your post, you are never going to be a sought-after bad boy, nor should you try to be one, despite a very good chance, that with enough media brainwashing, young and silly women your age are seeking these miserable low-lives. Many bad boys pay a hefty price later in life.
I don’t think at sixteen you have to behave as if you are seeking your wife, but I strongly believe that a young man should get familiar with the ins and outs of female behavior and interaction at a young age. It doesn’t matter if you get laid or not at a measly sixteen years old, but I don’t think it’s good for men to become accustomed to socializing and dating late in life as this can cause immense frustration and confusion and subsequent odd behavior that can make landing a woman difficult.
With that said, there are only a few things a man needs to land a decent woman. And no, I am not talking about “hot” women, but if a guy lands a pretty woman, then so be it.
A life. This is implied and I’m sure you know what I mean by this term: interests, hobbies, thoughts, insight, actives, culture, and so on.
Employment or school attendance. No, you don’t have to be a millionaire to land a woman. If that’s what it took, then nearly all taken men would be miserable and womanless. If you’re not at career age, then at least be on track studying for a trade or future profession. Actually, looking around lately in the five boroughs of NYC, I’m not sure employment is needed for a dude to land a chick. ![]()
Personality. Whatever your personality is like embrace it and don’t be so damn timid to show it.
The realization that not ever woman will want you. This is why you shouldn’t get down if a particular woman doesn’t like a particular trait about you because another might prefer it. This goes for income, family background, race, nationality, physique, height, and so forth.
Being a civic-minded person. This basically implies you obey social mores and that you’re not nuts!
Keep in mind, this is what it takes to find a normal, likable woman. You can break all these rules, as many do, and land a woman, though she might be dysfunctional herself.
Here’s another piece of advice of mine that some people have taken issue with. Avoid the common aim or obsession many men have with beautiful women or those of higher socioeconomic backgrounds. I know there is a pervasive belief in alpha-wannabe culture that no woman is “out of one’s league”, when in reality, people as a whole are in different leagues! If in the course of living one’s life, an ordinary looking man stumbles upon a beautiful woman who happens to like him, then good for him. But often ordinary dudes who try hard to only get hot women appear desperate to them. Pursuing and socializing with woman of similar looks and socioeconomic background can save immense frustration and letdowns. Again, many disagree with me here, but it’s how I see it in this day and age in which many frustrated men have taken to the internet (or worse).
Also realize that although you will need a woman to be happy eventually in adult life (unless you are one of the rare dudes who can live happily without sex or a woman), don’t give them more power or credit than they deserve (same goes for men in the case of women). Like us, they’re not perfect, they can be annoying (or drive you mad), and they can present issues (neutral, bad, and good) you never expected.
That post was incredible man. Thank you.
Update: Thanks to all you guys who have replied since I last said thanks, you all help ![]()
Humour opens the door, confidence gets you inside!

Most men make this stuff too damn complicated. When I got over my own personal hangups, low self-esteem, most of my depressive symptoms (they did not fully go away until about four years ago), and stopped taking cues from modern, hypergamous culture (e.g., a man supposedly has to be special (rich, “funny”, powerful background, unusually talented, etc.) in some way to get a woman), I met enough women and got dates. And what I mean by enough is enough to have some fun and eventually find my wife.
I do sympathize with single men because I think the current dating scene is a nightmare.
I do agree dude. How would you say it is nightmare? Girls being too aesthetically-orientated or something?
Several factors.
- Cues from news and entertainment media.
- Hypergamy (influenced by item 1).
- Radical feminism. Eg, “I am woman. Hear me roar.” “I take no shit.” “I don’t need a man.” A generally belligerent and dismissive attitude towards men as a whole. Many who hold these attitudes are not feminists per se, but rather do not like men for some reason or are grudgeful to them.
- Extreme career women. High ambition, many work hours. Eg, “I’m always busy.” “Work is crazy!” I met quite a few of these women when single. I don’t even know why I bothered going on dates with some.
- Unrealistic expectations of what men should be like rather than what damn near all of them are like (again, from item 1).
- The notion that both women and men hold in thinking that women are so damn special compared to men. This can be seen by slavish ingratiation by men (and women) to attractive women on social media. Sorry, I don’t ingratiate ANYONE because he or she is attractive. This general phenomenon puts women in the role of manipulator and the man as a genuflecting wuss, I believe, and it lays out a scene in which women can act as arrogant as they please (some men too). There’s nothing wrong with complimenting people, but I’m sure you get the drift.
- Men trying to be hypergamous as well, which usually doesn’t work.
These are my opinion and how I see it. I am not a “dating expert” or a sociologist or psychologist.
