NINE WAYS TO MEET A GREAT GUY!
OK, admittedly it's been a while since I went man shopping (I've been married for years), but the subject still fascinates me. I'm always curious how women meet guys and the frustrations they experience along the way. Many admit to being discouraged because the process is so hard. But I think you have to tackle meeting guys like you would any big project by putting lots of effort into it, perfecting your skills as you go, and realizing that some strategies work a whole lot better than others. Here are the nine best tips I've learned.
1. Don't develop hard-and-fast rules about the ways you're willing to go about your search. Some women, for instance, have a policy against being fixed up. But you need to be flexible and willing to experiment with a variety of strategies, particularly if you find yourself in a drought. My theory has always been that a winning prospect only comes around every six to seven blind dates, so you may have to chitchat with five chumps in order to get there. You also need to be flexible about the places you go to meet guys. If you head to the same bars all the time, you're going to see the same old guys or the same type. There are always interesting new ways to meet men, and you need to keep your ear to the ground to hear what's hot at a given moment. It keeps changing. One minute networking cocktail parties are all the rage, and the next something else is. I heard lately, for instance, that day spas are starting to offer times when singles can mingle.

RULES FOR PICKING UP WOMEN
#1 While kicking game to a woman, constantly repeat her name, it's like music to their ears. For example "So where are you from, Heather?" instead of "Where are you from?".
#2 Never appear to be intimidated by a woman... even if you are. Beautiful women are used to men being intimidated by them and ONLY find the men who aren't to be attractive.
#3 Never talk negatively about your life or your job. Though our motives may be different, women are ultimately searching for a companion, so why would she want to share her life with someone that is not satified with their own. Never talk negatively about your ex-girlfriends either, which is a very common mistake.
#4 When asked what you plan to do with your life, or what you are currently doing to improve yourself always show great ambition. Women are extremely attracted to ambitious men, because when you explain your high goals and plans for yourself she will be thinking "Maybe this guy will be rich/important someday".
