I'm pretty good at picking up picking up chicks. I have no problem approaching them, getting numbers, or even closing the deal under normal circumstances. I still get laid fairly often, but I've been running into a problem because I do not have a job. I've been ouyt of work for 8 months now and I have been looking religiously. Nothing has panned out yet.

Finding a job is my top priority, but I still want to get laid. How do you approach the subject of not working? Should I just flat out lie? I don't really feel comfortable doing that. Is there another way?

First off, if a girl asks you what you do for a living, I would normally come up with a playful response that shows that it doesn't much matter. For example-

Girl: so what do you do for work?
Guy: I'm an exotic dancer. (teasingly, with a smile, etc)

just something of that nature. If she presses on, just say something like your between jobs and don't make a big deal of it. I wouldn't recommend lying about it because the hook usually catches up to you. A lot of time women look for potential in a man rather than just evaluating what they know about you, so its all about how you present yourself.

I agree with this I had a similar situation. Girl asked me what I did I told her playfuly I was a male prostitute she broke out laughing. I too didn't have a job but didn't want to admit it to her. After that I changed the subject got her # and we went out the next day. I find the key is say something funny like that get them laughing then smoothly transistion to a different topic.

Instead of saying you don't have a job, which may become problematic if you end up in a relationship later on, you can tell her you are trying to start a business. If she presses on tell her it's nothing big, just this and that and throw it back at her - how about you, ever wanted to start a business? Who knows, you might end up being partners!
