The Dating Scene

The scene is your hunting ground. Know it. It should be your turf. First of all, you need to determine what kind of girl you're looking for.

    1) NIGHT CLUBS: If you can dance, this is pay dirt. Girls love to dance. No matter who it is, they like to dance (OK, 90% of the time!). This is where the game begins. Luckily, you will have an inside edge (thanks to Cherade!). When working the nightclubs, you need the clothes, the cash, and the ability to move that thing. Standing around looking cool has a high strikeout rate in this scene. If you don't dance or hate looking like an ass, stay away from the dance scene. For a lot of guys, working up the nerve to dance is hard. When you're at the club, take a minute to step back and look at other guys dancing. You will soon realize that they aren't doing a whole hell of a lot. Dancing for a guy is easy. Just look at what everyone else is doing and mimic the moves. If you still don't want to dance and insist on working the clubs, work the bar. Look for the girls that don't appear to be having any fun and change it. You'll write your own ticket to lovin. Meeting girls on the dance floor is okay, but it's difficult to make a transition. If you do get a girl on the dance floor and want to get more intimate, ask her if she wants to get a drink at the bar. Then, you can start putting on the moves.
    2) CHURCH:Hey, don't laugh! These girls aren't always as sweet and pure as they appear. Youth group was a great scene for me. Game playing here is virtually nil, and you can usually skip "the approach" and move right into how to play the one-on-one. Conversation is easier here, so you can identify their hopes and dreams and get them close to you relatively easy. Use the tactics you have learned in the approach and in icebreakers. They will help close the deal.
    3) HIGH SCHOOL (not for you old guys!): Ah-h-h-h-h-h-h, school! Let the games begin! My advice is to shop other schools. This works well! Your school will require you to play a strict game, and you are already familiar with some of the rules. Girls don't mess around a lot because they will be labeled sluts. Once you hook up with the slut, you drag her trashy label around with you. In order to work your school, your reputation must be at least decent, and you will have to get into a semi-serious relationship before you can
    move on. [Note: your break-up with this girl should be at her request. This will draw some sympathy for you. Also, your "ex" is less likely to talk a lot of trash about you because she will feel as if she has the upper hand.] Maintain control, and don't allow yourself to be surprised by any outcome. We will address this more in future articles.
