    FR: Venue Change Gone Bad

    I think she clearly wanted you to make a move and the TWO of you go somewhere without the friends. She also likely would have simply stayed at the same bar with you and let them leave without her had you not said anything. Alternatively, you simply let her go knowing you are still at that bar...

    Looking back to high school

    High school is a bubble. And college is also to a lesser extent. Most of your interactions with women in these type of settings mean very little as it is usually ALL about status and to a lesser extent looks. Ever wonder why women those days fawned over the jock? Because he was the "cool" guy...

    End of my 3 year relationship. Your perspective welcome

    OP, Women never apologize except in a very superficial way. Expecting her to suddenly realize how big a b1tch she was being to you is unrealistic. It just isn't reality. Women think they are apologizing by their indirect actions. Her reaching out to you "like nothing happened" as you put it...

    Facebook "Are we dating the same guy" groups

    I think generally speaking any press is good press when it comes to dating. Only way that isn't true would be if it was something along the lines of bad hygiene or not being able to get it up on a regular basis. But the "hard no" comment? Who cares. Honestly, I think most women are intrigued by...

    Do not make yourself the victim

    I agree with the overall principle that a man should always accept responsibility for his own actions and failures. Pretty much a no brainer for any man with shred of integrity. However, this gets way more complicated in the vein of relationships between a man and a woman. Many times, women...

    Any reasonably attractive woman knows you’d like to have sex with her.

    Never say SS doesn't have proud traditions.

    Unpopular opinion: cold approach is a WASTE of time.

    I think this is a gross over-simplification of reality. First, you do not need to set aside 2-4 hours every weekend to cold approach. You can do this when you are out and about with friends and see a woman you are interested in or when you are out on your own browsing furniture. It also does not...

    Unpopular opinion: cold approach is a WASTE of time.

    I think I may have told this story here before, but I have a client who I have gotten to know over the years who I would classify as "above average" but certainly nothing you would double take at if you saw her on the street (probably a HB 6). She showed me her Bumble once about a year ago and...

    Unpopular opinion: cold approach is a WASTE of time.

    A lot of you guys have gotten good at reinforcing each others' negative views. It isn't fantasy at all. But you're going to believe what you want regardless of what I say. Until you get out there and do it, I can see why you would believe it doesn't work.

    Unpopular opinion: cold approach is a WASTE of time.

    This is an outlook that seems to be gaining traction here on SS that I completely disagree with. You can get more women surfing OLD. But you will pull younger and hotter doing cold approach. In other words, higher quality doing cold approach. Hot women are either not on OLD or are so inundated...

    I could've "won" but at what cost?

    OP, You can approach this in two ways in the "right" direction. One, you can simply go No Contact at this point and completely ignore her, which given your emotional investment is probably the correct option. Second, you could simply invite her out with you for another time when you are...

    Provider Male vs. Alpha??

    As a doctor, he likely has a good deal of social proof assuming he is not a complete hermit. It gets hard to sometimes clearly delineate money and social proof since they are, in many ways, inter-connected -- especially in the dating world.

    Im in love for the first time but it´s complicated (M27, F34)

    We have all thought that some posts here in the past were trolling and they turned out to be legitimate. Assuming this is NOT trolling, I would say OP sent himself straight into the friendzone. If a woman gives the green light for sex and you don't take it, you just lost and lost BIG when it...

    Slowing things down/Building tension

    Great post. And you are right. As much as we hate to say it, the old saying that "familiarity breeds contempt" seems to ring true for most (not all) couples. I don't get the feeling that most of them really enjoy each other's company. It is sort of a dependency on each other's presence that...

    Potential shot with a college crush

    We would need more information to know whether she is a realistic option for you to bang. Based on what you have said here, it doesn't sound like it. She is married, has kids, and she is coming with friends to this concert. I am guessing these are friends that know her husband, and unless the...

    Girl doesn't pass boner test

    To your second question as to whether to put a lot of stock into it for an LTR - absolutely yes. If you are having trouble getting a b0ner with her in early stage dating, this is not the type of thing that improves as she becomes more of sole focus sexually. Generally, attraction lessens over...

    Marriage relationship incident

    OP, A woman's anger is never over the reason that it seems to be. Here, she isn't mad at you because you told her she needed to shape up around the house. She is mad at you because she feels like she is being treated like a child (given a monthly allowance, scolded for household chores, etc.)...

    Tips for adult male virgins by coach Nick Notas

    Getting the virgin butterflies is definitely a thing. I am sure it just gets magnified the older you get and having never slept with a woman. However, unless you suffer from some terrible disability, there is really no reason you need to continue to be a virgin. Cast a wide net (OLD, cold...

    It all starts with your mindset when you wake up everyday...

    Certainly being in a negative loop in your own mind is highly destructive. But just having a false sense of superiority is also bad and will immediately turn others off to you. I think "fake it until you make it" is certainly acceptable in certain situations (women for instance). It doesn't...

    How do you go about getting into a girl's dms on instagram? What are the fundamentals of instagram game?

    We have debated this many times before on SS, but IMO (and I have been labelled one of the crusty old guys on the subject), you have already lost if you are pursuing on social media. You look thirsty and desperate if you are actively trying to "slide into" some chick's DMs. Now, I certainly...
