Like even if I remember a girls name. Next time I see her would it be a good idea to pretend to forget? Seeming as if she wasn't important to me and not memorable or should I be like I remember her but just not her name?

Id say with the prettier girls either mispronounce or do forget their names :P But this is for minimum of HB8's and above.
With the lesser girls remember their names, itl make them feel special!

something along these lines works quite well...tell her

* ...omg i am terrible at remembering names but i never forget a face',
* say 'last time i saw you was in XXX bar wasnt it? you're looking lovely/amazing...
* then look a bit confused and be like 'oh god i cant remember your name this is soo embarassing',
* then say something like 'dont tell me, dont tell me, i'll remember it, just give me a sec, it'll come to me, how could i forget the name of someone with such gorgeous eyes/fantastic tits/insert appropriate amazing feature' ,
*let me look at your eyes'....stare deep into her eyes ...this bit is optional it may be overdoing it you have to judge from her reaction thus far

* then miraculously 'remember' it!!

Thanks for the responses. I think I'll try something like:

"We've met before, haven't we? You look familiar"

And she'd be all trying to make me remember and such. "Yeah you know a few weeks ago at the pub?"

@ariana: I'm not sure how useful a woman's advice is for seducing women. They don't know how women work. They can't even explain how they feel most the time.

Telling her she has fantastic tits in front of all her/my friends is a little too direct. Although she does have fantastic tits I must admit.

When I was reading your post I was thinking "this all seems like something a woman would say/how a woman would behave". Then I saw your username.

Thanks for the response though I appreciate it.

Why not become the man who remembers EVERYBODY'S name?

There are other ways to demonstrate that you have great life going for you than playing the role of the dim-witted Mr. Forgetful.

Girls who play these "forgot your name games" are usually:

1. Not into you at all.

OR

2. Into you enough to put some thought and energy into fabricating crap.

(If you can't tell the difference between 1 and 2, you don't trust yourself enough. Very few people are that good at acting. Trust your intuitions)

3. Girls who are into you who play these games are plastic dreamers. Their lives are charades filled with white lies and fabrications but . . . chicks get a few free passes at these things. They're chicks. This is what they do.

4. Girls like this (many girls are) GRAVITATE to strong guys with a sense of reality. Their lives are so void of balance that a guy who shows them some sense of strength sweeps them away.

Stick to reality:

You met, you exchanged names, you had a great time. You talked about getting together for the art festival. You shared drinks.

THIS WAS REALITY.

"Pretending" that you forgot all of this would be just as delusional as the guy who takes the above episode and remembers:

You met, you fell in love. You could probably marry her. You could have fucked her. She probably wanted it. You are soul mates and are meant for each other. Etc . . .

Personally i'd say its neither good or bad

Remembering a name does demonstrate some good qualities an can add the feeling that you an the person know each other pretty well even if you don't


However

If you know how to handle not remembering a name in a situation, its a great way to generate decent emotional conversation with the girl you're talking to...

For Example
You forget her name... she tells you.. you instantly throw on a huge grin grab her an hug(Kino) her while stating how bad you are with names. This leads into General conversation but a pick up is still possible

Also you can call her a random chicks names, watch her reaction...blah blah blah if shes interested she'll chat you up.. You then play the guessing game.. Grab her hand(kino) an tell her you can figure out her name thru her palm... There are many creative ways to do this.. GoodLuck

P.S. I'd suggest never faking this though.. Be upright an honest as much as you can, besides chix can usually sense if youre faking you know. Especially if shes an 8+.. anyways good lukk

-Fuze Peace & Love

yes you are right, we women arent very clever, we dont know about the gold standard we just like fluffy bunnies and kittens.....however we; well ok i can only speak for myself; have had enough men attempt to chat up/seduce us we do know what works and most especially what totally doesnt

I suppose it does depend on your intentions, but "We've met before, haven't we? You look familiar" is really not a good chat up line and it wont seduce anyone...i promise you..i accept that its all in the delivery but it just reminds me of something somebody with alzheimers might say to their daughter coming to visit them in a nursing home

also you're assuming when you say 'and she'd be trying to make me remember and such' that she will remember you!!! have you considered that she may also be playing a similar game and just pretend not to remember you at all, or she may simply not remember you at all.....then your plan will backfire i think

btw if you are with all your/her friends, you dont have to say tits 8)

well, it depends of the woman. If it's a hot HB9 and u've made some attraction and just elft there, then you should pretend to froget it. If you've gone into confort and then u just pretend of forgetting her name she will not be happy, she might think you're a player or someone who doesnt really care and might be an egoist. If you fail on this (ex: you pretend to forget name of an HB and she gets mad at you) you can simply raise DHV and make her a compliment ( if things really went bad). It's a matter of personality.

Doing the whole "Oh, im sorry, I forgot you're name because I meet SOOO many women every day of every hour I cant POSSIBLY remember them all!"

That's just way too gimmicky for me. A good smile, a hug or handshake, and gently saying, "Oh, hey (Girl's name). There's no way I could forget a smile like that."

It's real. It's upfront. There's nothing scripted about it, and women will be floored by the confidence. And really, if you follow that up with C&F attitude, a woman's gonna wonder what the hell is going on in your mind and she'll be that much more intrigued.

You could even come back to that "opener" I said. Like, with her smile, if she's not smiling for any amount of time, its a great way to start up another dialogue,

"Hey you, what's your name?!"
"What?"
"Wait, a second, smile for me real quick!"

"(Girl's name)!! There you are, where have you been?! Dont look so glum."

I just thought that up just now =/
Lol, any feedback on that?! That wasn't a planned post at all.

If you've ever watched Keys to the VIP, then you know how many times those guys failed because they forgot the girl's name. Something as simple as forgetting a name ruined their chances.

I find this whole debate a bit ridiculous. If you have self-esteem, why the need to fake forget a girls name? I can't remember an instance where remembering a girl and/or her name worked to my disadvantage. Not remembering, on the other hand, has been a problem before. I think you lose way more rapport than you can build attraction with that whole number.
