2	FR First time out since LTR The first one after a LTR is hard, I blew my chances with a couple of ladies for the same reasons. After you finally go for it though, you'll feel a lot better about the newly single you.	/r/seduction	30/10/10 03:21 PM
4	How do you avoid the girl getting the impression you're way above her level and the only thing you can possibly be interested with her is quick sex? Are you sure it's them feeling dumb, or are you coming off like a prick? There's a fine line between confidence and egomania, trust me, I struggle with it daily. People with our type of jobs are generally successful because of our confidence in our intelligence and professional abilities. As a side affect, that mindset tends to pervade all of our social interactions. One thing to remember: no job is THAT intimidating, especially if they've only known you a few minutes. It's all about how you int…	/r/seduction	27/10/10 04:39 AM
2	How do I be interesting? One last teaching moment for the academic in me... You're not keeping the material "dumb," that's not the point. First principles are the keys to every single real world application of mathematics. Being able to explain something in the most simplified terms is a testament to your understanding of the material, so don't look at it as "dumbing down" what you do. Think of it as expanding your knowledge of what you already know, and making that knowledge accessible to others. You'll be better for i…	/r/seduction	27/10/10 01:08 AM
1	How do I be interesting? To "Math is hard" I would say: " That's why it is so satisfying to do it. The most fun I have is when overcoming difficulties, for instance last time we were camping/climbing/playing water polo/whatever (insert a story about how you've enjoyed some difficult situation/adrenalin etc.)" I've heard this tactic before, and it honestly comes across like a deflection to me, which is just as bad as being insincere. If he really is interested in his work, then he will be interesting when he's talking ab…	/r/seduction	27/10/10 12:58 AM
3	How do I be interesting? This is a three part comment (the first part being half-relevant): 1) "Why is the square root of 2 irrational?" As an academic...no! That's why people think it's boring to hear you talk about math. You may "know" a bunch of stuff in the sense that you learned material for exams, but you have yet to transcend the material and have an real, functional understanding. You've managed to kill math for everyone else by not fully appreciating what it is. 2) "Well it's either that or writing essays and I…	/r/seduction	26/10/10 09:06 PM
3	[Mini-FR] Failed the shit test -> Lesson learned Dude?! Did you learn your lesson?.. Haha! Nope... Thanks for the reality check. Quick answer: No. What you need to do is just not text her tonight, nor ever again. Done.	/r/seduction	26/10/10 08:44 PM
2	How do I be interesting? I'm finishing a doctorate in aero/astro engineering -> Translation: I'm a fucking rocket scientist. You are only as boring as you allow yourself to be. The "math is hard" comment is a great conversation catalyst, just go with it. I can't count the number of times I've answered the same retarded questions about "spaceships" and "why airplanes fly," but it's a really easy way to be interesting without having to try.	/r/seduction	26/10/10 07:59 PM
8	[Mini-FR] Failed the shit test -> Lesson learned Done.	/r/seduction	26/10/10 07:51 PM
3	[Mini-FR] Failed the shit test -> Lesson learned One of her girl friends replied that she's on the same shift (afternoon to evening). So, it wasn't really ambiguous.	/r/seduction	26/10/10 07:50 PM
2	[Mini-FR] Failed the shit test -> Lesson learned I don't get it. [So and So] is some other dude? Yup, fixed it. Tuesday (in which case she is hanging out with someone else)? Bingo. If you have to pick her up for whatever reason and that's implied, you could say "be ready at 7" etc. Filed for later, thanks for the tip. Either way, I probably wouldn't want to go out with a girl who is so stupid that she forgot we're FB friends :); Sounds more like she's just flaky; I doubt that is why she flaked here though. Yeah, I have no clue. Either way thou…	/r/seduction	26/10/10 06:26 PM
2	[Mini-FR] Failed the shit test -> Lesson learned Fixed it, and I completely agree. I'm not trying to get into anything serious with this girl, just failed to close the deal this time due to overeagerness.	/r/seduction	26/10/10 06:13 PM
3	What to do about insecurity spikes? Go work out. Whenever I get down, I go for a fast-paced, long run and I'm back in the game. I've noticed that I am incapable of being confident and attractive if I'm not fully in that mind set. So, I usually hit the gym before heading out foe the evening and I'm good to go afterwords.	/r/seduction	25/10/10 03:35 PM
1	How Important Are Looks For Women? Just walk tall and know that you're carrying a big stick, and you'll become infinitely more attractive.	/r/seduction	23/10/10 11:59 PM
1	[FR] Finally manned up, good times were had. I'm not really looking for a "primary girlfriend" at the moment. I'm making progress, but I'm still going to need a significant amount of time before I'm ready to commit to being with one person again. As far as FWB, I could definitely see that happening. I'm not terribly concerned about it though, so I'm just kind of going with the flow at the moment. We've had the usual playful banter via text, but haven't made any solid plans or anything yet.	/r/seduction	21/10/10 08:49 PM
1	[FR] Finally manned up, good times were had. If you didn't have your shit together, would it have gone the same way? Definitely not, because I wouldn't have been at all interesting or attractive. I've been caught in a "stick in the mud" mindset for the past few months and have had zero luck even with what could be considered sure things. I may not have been the most interesting man in the world, but compared to my recent norm it was a total 180.	/r/seduction	21/10/10 04:15 PM
1	[FR] Finally manned up, good times were had. not giving a fuck actually does work. New mantra: "What's the worse that can happen?"	/r/seduction	21/10/10 02:13 PM
1	[FR] Finally manned up, good times were had. I was concerned that you might have come across as too arrogant about the sleeping naked issue Cocky-funny is definitely my personality; plus, with the way things were going, I honestly feet that it would have de-escalated the situation to not take that bait. At that point, I had the idea that we both knew what was up, so I just went for it.	/r/seduction	21/10/10 02:12 PM
1	[FR] Finally manned up, good times were had. I had 5+ years in mine and got dropped out of the blue after my SO had an existential quarter life crisis; it sucks man, but just believe that you can do better.	/r/seduction	21/10/10 02:08 PM
2	[FR] Finally manned up, good times were had. For example, she had a hold of my hand while we were driving. I had to use it to change gears, so when I came back, I flipped her hand over so the back of her hand was to my palm. At that point, I used my thumb to give her kind of a hand massage. It sounds creepy, but it's not if you go about it the right way. Plus, it gave me a reason to go for the inner thigh later, because she was comfortable with having my hands on her at that point.	/r/seduction	21/10/10 02:07 PM
