Am I more likely to get laid if I lower my standards ?

You don’t need to lower your standards. You just need o accurately rate yourself. How can you be an eight or nine and struggle to get an 8-9. Doesn’t make sense to me

This might be a little messed up but for a while I would date pretty much whoever - whether I was attracted to them or not - simply to get a feel for how to treat a woman and how to play out a date. No one ugly but just average women I am not really interested in. A practice girlfriend. I have no issues with approach anxiety or nervousness on dates with the very attractive women I go for now just because I've been on quite a few. Experience is key. Now, I'm not sure if it would bother you much to go into a relationship with this mindset as it's pretty manipulative but it helped me out to learn.

Also, never rate yourself 8-9. Being confident in your looks is good but don't be overconfident. I'm not sure what you look like but unless you're pretty jacked you probably aren't an 8-9. I'd say I'm a 6.5 in looks, I picked up working out to raise that number. My current girl is about an 8.5. It's not all about looks. It's about game, personality, confidence, numbers and a bit of luck :)

I swear to God every time one of these threads get posted the OP claims they're "an 8 or 9" or "above average". Do you know what average means? It means half of the people are above it and half are below it. This would correspond to a 5.5. I find it very hard to believe that out of everyone out their dating/hooking up, its somshow only the better looking half that are having these issues.

You gotta be more realistic.

Short answer is yes

This isn't completely directed to you but as a general point that should be made when guys change themselve to get laid.

I'm going to be direct and to the point - approach girls who you find attractive. If you don't find them attractive, what are you doing? That's just desperation.

Have a standard and stick too it. The quality of the girl is more important than quantity. Ask your self what's more important - the relationship you have with a human being or the ego boost you get from adding another notch to your belt - it's shallow and insecure.

The reason you have a standard is because it means that you know what you want. That you care more about you likes than what she likes. That you are more invested in yourself than you are in her.

The simple answer is yes. However in my experience this is 50/50 (which is totally unreliable because that comes from experience with only 2 women..not 100 haha be skeptical).

My first woman I wasn't attracted to and couldn't even get it up. I was a virgin though and she was my attempt to Lowry my standards so it was a real mess the first time, having to break through my bias. The next time we went at it though (and for the rest of the summer relationship) I learned that even if she didn't have a small outline, she was still tight in body. Basically she was big boned and not fat. By the end of the relationship I'm still mesmerized by her beautiful skin and shapely ass. She wasn't a model but she had model like qualities. That's life man. You can't experience that if you don't take the jump. She had ex problems and I was immature so we didn't last, but Damn did I think i wouldn't mind marrying that hot ass. Anyway, that was lady 1. Kept great care of her hygiene too and was just a delight to go down on.

Lady 2 was a desperate tinder hookup on my part. She looked similar in bodytype on the profile but when we got it on I realized she had no ass...couldn't even get it in from the back, her hips were too weird. Anyway that doesn't even matter, what WAS traumatizing was that i noticed she had some foul odor. In my head it was like sweaty fajitas or anything meaty of the sort. It was just bad. It was coming from her pits and groin.

I was so disillusioned because one way or the other, this girl had some sort of deficient life style that never taught her the common sense of hygiene or post-shower products. I mean why the fuck would she smell AT ALL Everytime if she had plenty of time to prepare as I drive over from the next town over...dicks ssake some people grow up completely sheltered. We met twice and the second time was only because i left some necklaces there.

All in all bro, yes you will get laid, and rest assured that it might even be the best lay in your life. The problem is that it still won't even depend on you, women are just as hit and miss on the inside as they are on the outside, so be prepared to be disappointed regardless of your decision.

If you’re only going to lower your standards just to increase your quantity of women slept with then kiss goodbye future chances of sleeping with any of the 10’s. You’re never going to better your game if you don’t put yourself in uncomfortable positions. Remember quality over quantity. But once you improve so much you’ll be able to have a quantity OF quality. You say the 10’s are hard effort now that’s only because you haven’t learned how to build attraction with them. If you perfect the craft, it won’t be hard at all and you’ll even enjoy the entire interaction. I assure you, sleeping with lower standards of women will not help you in the slightest in any aspect.

"More likely to get laid" = you think seduction is about getting lucky.

If that is how you think about it, then you are right.

triumph900 · 2019-03-17T13:53:12+00:00

8 or 9? go into this assuming you are a 6 at best.
