before i start i want to hear some opinions on dressing up, because i for one think that it absolutely works because women do like a guy with style.

So the past 2 years ive basically been on a low. girls have always thought i was good looking but i never really dressed up or anything. for me, it was the basic t-shirt jeans and athletic shoes. Over the last 2 years it was VERY rare that a girl would approach me or have interest in me unless of course i wasnt attracted to her and i didnt have any inhibitions to show my true personality.

So heres my experience:

I went to my brothers house this weekend who dresses pretty nice and has always been a hit w/ the ladies. That night i spilled ketchup on the regular ol' t-shirt and jeans that i usually wear so naturally im not a good dresser but im also not a slob, so i changed. i was forced to dress in half metrosexual half cool guy look like my brother.

That night i wore a nice pair of abercrombie jeans that actually fit me and a button down collar shirt that was under a red abercrombie sweater. As soon as we hit the bars girls approached me all freakin night. it was freakin amazing. they would tell me how hot i was, asking me if i had a g/f and all that. it was a HUGE confidence boost.

Anyways later that night a HB 8 approached me. and with a lil confidence boost from the other HB's i managed to get laid that night. Not only did i get laid, but it was the first time in over 2 years that i talked w/ a HB all night and she laughed at everything i said that was funny(do to little inhibition and more confidence im guessing). This was a huge confidence booster and just makes me want to improve myself and my game even more.
What made it even better was the fact that this girls looks was HB8 but matched with a great personality she would easilty be HB9 pushing 10.

I guess what im saying is the dressing up was basically a prop. Women that night thought i looked cool(style) so they approached me. And when i realised that they were no different than any other girl, i just acted myself with confidence and charisma and they ate it up. Now the dressing up was just a prop, the confidence+lowinhibition+charisma=attraction.

So this made me think, and ask youselves these questions also.

1) Where would you be if you had confidence?

2) What kind of woman would you attract if you had low inhibitions?

3) And how much more fulfilling would your life be if you had both of these and would it be worth it to WORK for it?


OH yea, i got laid the next night too, by a different HB, she was a 9(an old GF)

Now i realise that all i have to do is keep that level of confidence and step it up a notch. IT FEELS WAY TOO GOOD TO WALK INTO A BAR AND KNOW THAT EVERY1 IS GOING TO LOVE BEING AROUND ME AGAIN.

I think it's perhaps self-defeating to consciously rely on what you wear. What if by chance, you meet up with one of you buds or old friends and both of you decide to spontaneously hit a bar or a club. Well, you're not dressed as you think you should be, so you're going to be self-conscious about it all throughout the evening. Will the femmes "sense" this? I bet they will!

Lesson learned would be to be comfortable and confident with yourself in almost any situation: work cloths, sweat pants, casual, slob, professional, etc.

Sure it's nice to have that confidence of being nicely dressed, but certainly do not let it control your aura.

Or you can just always dress "nicely". That doesn't mean wearing dress pants and a nice button-down shirt 7 days a week, but just making sure all of your jeans and t-shirts and other casual clothes fit you nicely, aren't raggy, and that there's at least a little sense of style to them. Not every girl even prefers the nicely "dressed up" look anyway. I know a girl whose favorite look on a guy is a good pair of a jeans, a nice fitting t-shirt and a hoodie.

What point? That confidence is more important than anything, including what you wear? Well thank you for gracing this forum with that enlightening piece of original advice. That still doesn't escape the fact that women in particular will hold a higher opinion of you if the way you dress yourself is attractive and congruent to how you carry yourself. Just because you try to dress nicely doesn't mean you're relying on external factors for confidence. My point was that you don't need to be "dressed up" to be dressed well, and you should avoid wearing trashy/bland/oversized clothes in general....unless you're performing a specific task that calls for junky clothes. Are you really going to go to a bar without changing your clothes right after jogging or working under your car?

i think dressing nice is very important. alot of girls are into the whole preppy thing. there isnt a whole code but look nice, wear some cologne(not cheap stuff), shave, wear NICE SHOES this is important, alot girls judge a guy by his shoes. last saturday i got a good buzz at home and decided to go to this nice bar downtown. i was kinda drunk so i was like im gonna wear a suit. i have never done this but i dont care. i approached a 3 set, it was 2 girls and a guy and the guy was tryin to pick up theses girls. i walked up joined there conversation. they stopped talkin to him and talked to me. he was standing there like an idiot AFC. i got both of the girls numbers. i dont know if it was the suit but i know i looked sharper than the average guy there. dressing nice deffinatly key.

The quote implies that clothes/appearance complete a man and are reflective of him.

Apologies for not being more clear, I thought the phrase was commonly used.

yes i call nice abercrombie jeans and a sweater worn over a nice button down shirt dressing up. For a bar situation in a college setting.

Wearing dockers in a college bar setting where girls are about partying would be overdoing it a little bit. I was going out to drink beer and party, not ****tails with intellectual conversations about the last novel i read.

And besides that im talking about a switch from the usual baggy jeans and a t-shirt to nice abercrombie jeans that fit with a sweater and button down shirt. It made a difference even though it may not be your view of dressing up.

To make it clearer...forget what i said about "dressing up" since we have different pts of view about this.

The pt is that it makes a difference to dress nicer thats all

dressing NICE and dressing UP are two different things...


I guess I was wrong to assume that pretty much every member of this forum dressed NICE... I mean, what's the alternative?
