Tips for Picking Up Men

Dressing Sexy

Lots of women out there throw on the cleavage shirts, the easy access skirts, and the FMBs (fuck me boots) to land themselves a guy. Well ladies, this is usually not the greatest way to meet the man of your dreams, but if quality doesn't matter, it is definitely the way to go. Three-quarter to full-length dresses with a slit along the side will do you a lot better then a skirt showing half of your butt and boots that reach your upper thighs. Remember that the way you dress plays one of the biggest roles in how others perceive you.

Flirting

Lots of guys out there are too timid to approach a girl, especially an extremely attractive one. If you are outgoing enough, you can try starting a conversation yourself, or at the very least send them some signals. You can have a look at our article on flirting for some tips on getting their attention.

Tips for Picking Up Women

Dressing Nicely

If only it were that simple. According to most women we've talked to, most men wouldn't know what style was if it knocked them in the head. Your best asset here is a female friend who is willing to go through your wardrobe to inform you on what looks good and what doesn't. After you put all clothes you thought looked good in a box labeled "crap", be prepared to buy yourself some new threads to attract the ladies. Try on everything that she wants you to try on, but if you don't feel comfortable wearing it, don't get it, you want clothes that feel comfortable and look good. Make sure to add some new shoes to the list; you want to have several nice pairs of shoes to go out in, and most importantly, keep them clean and polished!

Being Cheesy

Getting away with cheese as an opener requires great experience. Pick up lines, for example, are cheesy, and most people think of them as a horrible way to open, as they usually are. But thanks to this association, pick up lines can become very powerful tools. The key is surprising them, and it is not an easy thing to carry out. You want to come across as serious for about half a second, and then turn the whole thing into a joke. It can get the girl laughing and allow you to move in for some points, but delivered incorrectly, may get you on the fast track back to square one.

Being Hygienic

Do we really need to mention this one? Bad smells, especially from armpits, are not going to get you very far, nor will a 3-day-old beard. Make sure to keep washing, shaving, brushing, applying sufficient deodorant, and cologne can be a nice touch. And although you shouldn't expect getting this far right away, keep your "boys" trimmed or shaved at all times, hey, you never know.

Still Worrying?

One easy way to get started learning the ropes of picking people up is through matchmaking sites. You can meet people for chat, for a relationship, or just casual sex, and best of all, if things don't go well, you don't lose any "face". Learning online is much less stressful as you can edit what you want to say to sound the way you want, getting denied consists only of an unanswered email, and is a great way to polish up your approach and meet people at the same time.
