| Well, you don't have a choice but take advantage of the potential perks.
The thing about hickeys, scars etc. is that they aren't going to know the real story of what happened, and they don't need to know. What they DO need, is interest in what it is.
A hickey is pretty obvious and self-explanatory so girls will right off the bat assume you got your neck sucked on by some broad. This is a good thing. Don't bring attention to it on your own, let people ask what happened.
Potential answers:
"Steve" (just pick a friend and point at him) - Now you have a solid sense of humor, not afraid to be a little self-deprecating.
"Wild monkey went apeshit on my neck" - You are deflecting from a real answer (which she should know) but making light of it. This always makes girls laugh.
Point is, don't say "well...YOU KNOW! LOL" or anything cheesy and weak like that. Just assume the girls know (great DHV here as long as you play it cool) exactly what it is and force them to broach the topic. If you isolate, there is no doubt she'll refer to the hickey and call you out as a player. To which you can respond, "i get sucked on by monkey's all week, im an addict." or anything ridiculous like that. She'll feel the deflection and feed off the mystery.
In the end, the hickey will serve as your imaginary wingman. Its proof that you are in demand with women, so don't flaunt it, the attention will come.
Having said all this, a hickey isn't always a good thing. In many cases a hickey is construed as young and immature. You'll have to diffuse some of this sentiment if it comes your way, but just take it in stride and be confidently self-deprecating, bitches love confident self-deprecation.
