Nooo dinner and other such things where you take my money are what we are looking to avoid... though I suppose I can take your example and apply it to what I really meant.

I'm a US size 4

You could say drinks instead of dinner, that's less formal/more explicitly sexual.

This is called qualifying.

You know, for your research...

I've just made you qualify yourself to me and justify why you'd be good enough for me.

Shame you're still ugly, though.

LMAO...this is a work of art.

I'm not sure it's justifying why *I* would be good enough for *you* so much as "you're wrong, and rude".
It's just an extremely typical guy-on-the-internet thing to do, very reddit-esque, to anonymously make insulting assumptions about a woman's attractiveness. If you were saying this stuff in a bar, for example, I wouldn't have bother to point out in what ways you're wrong, I'd probably just bury my stiletto in your foot.

In terms of my research though: Does this approach actually make women want to sleep with you? I'm honestly so curious. I can't personally think of any woman I know who would be even marginally taken in by this.

At least have some assurance it's a girl you're flirting with lol. I'm cracking up thinking this is Paramount come back.

Who (or what) was paramount?

And if this qualifies as flirting on Finlays part I find that extremely depressing. I assumed flirting involved being charming and witty, not the adult equivalent of pulling a girl's pigtails.

Well... I suppose thats better, though that still leaves the door open to the friendzone.

Which brings me to my next point, flirting. Surely you have had some bad and good experiences with it, and I bet if a guy never initiates flirting with you he definitely gets friend zoned.

Could you tell us some times when you had some good flirts, and some bad ones? What was said?

And I'm sure the two of you would have been the best of friends.

If something's not fun, it's not worth doing

You're in a pickup forum. What did you think you were going to find here? Serious question.

It's psychology - not charm. And it's try after try after try of seeing what works and what doesn't. I have personally failed thousands of times. Literally thousands. I've also succeeded a lot.

I can tell you that had you and I been doing this in person, you wouldn't be nearly as "turned off" on me as you are right now (nobody is SERIOUSLY trying to pick you up here... this is all fun and games and we all know you're writing a report, so don't get offended. I'm trying to teach you by showing you).

In person, every line I dropped on you would have been delivered with a smirk or a smile. You'd have known I was joking - but you'd have sensed I wanted nothing to do with you, and that I really wasn't interested in you.

What you'd have also seen was me controlling a room or an SPAM, being the most fun person in the room, and having 3 other 9s hanging off me... so you'd have probably wanted to be a part of it. Subconsciously or not... Me making you qualify yourself (and that is what you did... subconsciously or not, you wanted me to know you were a size 4 and not a giant) is something we all do here.

Then you've have turned to your buddy, Jack-Zero, who'd have told you how awesome I was, cause he's my wingman... but you don't know he's my wingman.

He'd have let you complain all about me, though...

Do I wind up with 'girlfriends' from this kind of game? Not normally, no. I do, however, end up with a lot of angry sex from women who end up seeing me as a conquest or a challenge.

Maybe you aren't the type to sleep with guys from a bar that you just met... I promise you a lot of women are, though... and that's pickup.
