LizardKing do you have a digitalSLR or other fancy looking camera to continue this deception or do you have some other plan.

My good friend's girlfriend is a student at the local Art school/uni. She might be able to borrow one. It has to be an SLR really doesn't it.

I'm not too worried if I pull this off or not. I'm doing it purely for fun and for the hell of it.

Could also just bring a shitty camera... or even your phone and say that is part of the assignment. "I wanted to give the pictures a raw everyman feel since smartphones and instagram have basically turned everyone and their grandmother into amateur photographers."

I like that, but I'm going to try to be a little convincing.

Girl asks how long I've been on tinder...

Was thinking about being sarcastic by making up an exact date and time earlier this month. (even though I've been on longer)

What would you respond?

Questions like that do not need to be answered truthfully or accurately, ever.

Ended up banging a chick after a work training session. (She works for another company in a relevant industry)
She came along for drinks after the training session when i said I was meeting a mate for a few beers.

She took me home, haven't said anything apart from a "thanks for the date rape drugs and sleep over" to which she replied "Worst networking ever"
After that I havent said anything to her via text since that message on Saturday.

Want to line her up for drinks on Thursday as I wouldnt mind her in my rotation.....

Was thinking
"I have something important to tell you"
Once she bites i will respond
"I'm pregnant and I think its yours"

Then go from there...... Thoughts?

I think that's good. It will get her attention, and probably thoughts of an STD scare, and then you'll get relief and a laugh with your follow up.



I need some assistance guys. I've been speaking with this girl on and off for a couple of weeks now but she refused to meet until we'd been speaking for 2 weeks. Once that had passed she agreed to meet but during this time she has moved to the other side of town for a new job. She still agreed to meet but then last night she responded to my confirmation text with a flake saying it's too far to go (1 hour drive) mid week and wants to do a weekend instead.
I don't like doing first dates on weekends and weekends are busy for me in general so any advice on how to get her to get over her travel issue?

Me: Speaking of which are we still on for tomorrow night?
Her: Can we do it next week Sad I still need to get settled around here
Her: Or better yet weekends!
Me: :-(
Her: Sorry its just too far Sad
Her: I sleep at 10.30
Me: If we meet at 8 you can be home by 10.30 easily
Her: It takes 1 hr one way (I think this is bullshit, it's 40 minutes at worst)
Me: I wish you'd told me earlier, I could have made other plans
Her: Sorry ><
Her: Unless u wanna come my area? XD

You jumped through every single hoop she presented, like a well groomed poodle at a dog show.

Start qualifying her.

Honestly (this is just me)

I would respond a variation of:
- No
- Let me know when you're in the area
- Send me a naked picture (permutate this) and I'll consider
- I will send you my driver

Her: "How is Tinder treating you?"

Never met this girl, and I've been hit with this question a few times. Do I tell them about the crazy bitch that I met on here before? Do I show value by saying other girls weren't good enough? I know this is more a newbie question. I'm still in the building comfort stage, and haven't gone for the meet yet.

Agree and amplify:
She's been boring me to tears, maybe you'll change her ways?

She's sorta cute but

Crazy cat ladies, do you own a cat?

It's complicated

Decent, but I want my favorite t-shirt back

Or ignore/redirect:
Odds are good, but the goods are odd. You're not crazy are you?

Just joined, be gentle

I like what I see, but.. (and insert your own response after she responds)

(Comment on something in her profile)

"It's great, I've met 3 of my wives on here so far"

or

"It's terrible, girls keep offering to take me on beach vacations, but I'm really more of a mountain type of guy"

or

"It's great, I met Lindsay Lohan on here last week, but now I am wanted by the state police"

----

Basically, just hit her with something exaggerated that's obviously not true.

She'll respond: "haha oh is that right?"

Then you just go into made-up story mode. She'll begin to wonder if you're being serious and if part of your story is actually true. It's fun and girls like to play along with those types of games.

Remember: she doesn't really give a shit how Tinder is going for you, so use it as an opportunity to be playful and to show off your personality.

Sounds like you guys have a pretty funny banter going on with each other. That's great to see. Normally that "I'm pregnant" line wouldn't be advisable, but in your case it would probably get her laughing. It's bold but could work.

The safer route would be to just play it cool, and straight up ask her out for drinks.

Tinder's been great better than I expected, how's tinder treating you? Any crazy stories?

Just me, but I always follow up the first day after a bang if I want to keep her in rotation. When I wait too long it ends up being a one time thing. Usually it's a funny picture/quote that doesn't need a reply, then I'll hit her up later in the week to meet up again.

Yea, the old pregnancy text always works. If she doesn't have a sense of humor about it she's probably not worth keeping around
Libertas 路 2015-06-08 20:33:00 路 #1548
So a girl I've been dominant with just sent me a pic asking if I liked her new hairstyle. It appears that she cut one of the sides of her head short and left her hair hanging over the other side.

Facepalm3

Seriously, why do girls fucking do this? She's an immigrant to so it's a perfect example of the Anglosphere virus at work if it turns out as I suspect it will.

On the other hand, this is likely going to be an easy bang. If I get her alone I'm fairly sure she's going to fuck wildly.

So my current plan is to just brush off the message a little later by saying that she'll find out later and then divulge my plans.

Still, way for it all to become so much less enjoyable.

I have no idea how to do witty banter/rapport thing....it's like I talk at them instead of with them because I'm scared of being some overly-invested friend zoned guy, but I just come off detached and tryhard. I have no sense of humor and most of my convos are short because I either run out of things to say and/or try to get the meetup after a few 'good' responses from her. Example from Tinder, I didn't put much thought into these:

Girl: Haaay
Me: well aren't you a cute little snowbunny
Girl: ahaha i love that
Me: what the fuck are you doing right now
Girl: laying down lol wbu
Me: just got out of the shower, what are you wearing
Girl: a t shirt
Me: lol so no panties
Girl: Nah
Me: Pics.
Girl: hmmmm
Girl: you haven't earned them
Me: I'm entitled to them [sarcasm]
Girl: you aren't tho

A few days later...

Me: where do you live
Girl: ____ hbu
Me: ____ wanna chill this week
Girl: maybe*

*I assume she's not interested/a flake.
depravity 路 2015-06-09 10:34:00 路 #1550
If a girl gives me any sort of blase/aloofness I have no idea what to do and send the weirdest shit just to get a response:

Me: you look exotic
Girl: I am exotic
Me: raawwrr where do you live
Girl: lol bklyn
Me: are you shy
Girl: how you knkw
Girl: know
Me: you seem frail
Girl: lol tf

Me: you look like trouble Wink
Her: well thanks lol
Me: what are you doing up this late dork
Her: I was watching scream lol
Me: aww, so you're a short girl Wink [completely random]
Her: lol yupp. only ___
Me: I'll bring a footstool when we meet up, what are you looking for on here
Her: lol how tall are you? and umm idk just fun I guess
Me: [my height]*
Her: ohh well that's only a foot and 2 inches taller than me lol.

*I didn't try to bounce off what she said about looking for fun or whatever because I figured it was a lost cause.

You shouldn't be trying to keep the conversation going you should be pushing for a meet up. It seems like this girl is into you since she hit you up and she is telling you she is free, what more of an invitation do you need apart from her asking you to hang out?
