Guys, since we're on the girl subject I got a quick question. Not trying to hi-jack your thread Turbo...
Like a month ago I got braces cause for some stupid gay reason two of my teeth were separating...all my other teeth are pretty much perfect and I only have to have then on for like 2 more months...anyways,
I'm gonna be goin out with this chick this weekend who I have been good friends with for awhile, but she always had a bf but they broke up so now we are gonna go out. Problem is she hasnt seen me since I got these darn braces on. Now Im not ugly or nothing, but I feel really dumb cause I havent told her that I got them. Should I be worried? Do I need to tell her before I see her so she isnt like in shock? I mean they are coming off in like 2 months, but it still sucks...thanks alot for any advice....

You already have the date set right? If you tell her, she might be turned off and call off the date.........before you even have a chance to show her what your really like. So, don't tell her. Let her see for herself. She obviously liked you enough over the phone to hook up with you on a date right? So, let that catch her attention instead of some metal.

Well we don't have the specific day set yet, but probably this weekend. I agree with you said, but the thing is she already knows me pretty well and she already loves my personality...I mean, we have been friends for awhile and it was a good tell all kinda friendship. I just don't wanna have her first see me and be like weirdid out...i dunno...she's told me that she doesn't always go for looks anyways so I dunno what to do...it just sucks....I know that if she can't like me with them, that she prolly isn't who I wanna be with anyways, but it's still kinda hard to get yourself to beleive that.

Any other opinions? Thanks alot.

ok i kinda know how u feel man i got these damn things in sept 2003 and got them on for another year....

anyway thinking physciologically if u let her know u have them she will imagine ugly images ..... and not expect u too look too good. so then when she does see u and sees its only a minor setback and not much of a difference. then shell be happy.

but if she doesnt know she will be expecting a nice handsome guy and she sees the wires shell prolly be shocked.

so u can set her up for a lowered expectation and then trick her when she sees that those braces on u dont make much a diff....

or u can not tell her and let her take the shock and see if she still wants to be with u... i know when i got them i didnt tell anyone and most ppl were shocked.. its funny ppl look at braces like there a bad thing... even tho i cant wait to get mine off so i smile nicer again.... stupid railroad tracks eh?


ANYWAY man i didnt want to f*ck u up here. just giving u a diff way to look at it.. PERSONALLY i would not tell her. mAKE a joke about it when she sees u.. u tell her first n the date. GOOD LUCK MAN

Yeah, I get what your saying. I mean it's just temporary anyways and if that poses a problem to her, she probably doesn't "really" like me anyways....but I really don't think she is like that so it should be ok.
And if she is like all turned off by it and is all quiet and acting weird, I can always just whip out my guns.

Give it time bro... you say that you have only chilled a couple of times. Give it a couple more times by then you should be able to tell, in my experience some girls are shy but after four times just hanging out you should be able to tell some signs. Oh yeah... if all else fails just ask her if shes into any guys right now... if she says no, obviously shes not into you if she says yes, ask her if its anyone you know, if she says yes then your in. Good luck!

Hey man I hear ya. I had this happen last fall. I thought I was being given some pretty clear signs that she wanted more than friends, but it turned out she didn't (at least at that point) and thought I was moving too fast. My advise to you is this. Yes, ask her out, but because you aren't totally sure where she is at do it in a way that doesn't seem too date-like ya know. Just real casual nothing complex. If you make it sounds too serious and she isn't on the same page is you it'll be awkward. So just be cool about it and ask her to go out some time.

I don't see what the problem is with braces. My cousin got some and she looks fine with them on. Just don't smile like a retard and everything is cool.

Yea, good thread

Braces... They're only bad if you play them bad e.i. make fun of yourself or act as if they're restricting you... which in reality you are, but remember, its all about delivery.

Alcohol... If you've had a few, say you cant remember, if you've had so many you cant remember, say you've had a few.. im not sure why, but this always makes the nights more interesting

W/ regards to pickin up girls, you gotta read them, some girls like to be ignored, some girls like to be complimented, they all fish though, and through some weird channel ask you for what they want, you gotta look for that, and listen to them... well not what they're actually saying! but what they're implying behind they're speech, which also includes body language. Also, showing off, although can be bad, can be good. Example.. trying to impress by telling her you lift... BAD!!! Now, her commenting "big guns" and then you sayin, i've worked outo once or twice (smoothly of course) and flashing your ginormous 22inch biceps... Not bad!

Thats all i feel like typin about this thread for now.. gotta get back to looking busy!

withe braces, goin on a date.... be sure to wear the head gear... chicks dig that face full of metal and will tak u home that night.

Seriously though... for this thread.... you have to show the girl you have confidence. 9 times out of 10 they want you to go ask them out and prolly another 9 times out of 10 they will say yes to going out even if they are not interested to give you the benefit of the doubt and not be a *****(a pregnant dog?!?!? i didnt type that.. i typed b i t c h). This depends how old you guys are though.... younger ages u might get harsher rejections cus younger people tend to be crueler. Just remember this, rejections is half of the game... practice up and get used to gettin turned down.... cus then u wont even think anything of it and your confidence to approach a girl will increase ten-fold. Women have different tastest... i've been rejected harsh by beautiful woman but yet on the other hand i have had great responses from some beautiful women.... play the game and you'll find the one for you.

Johnny here. I'm new here. I'm 26 yrs old & have been training since I was 16yrs old for football. If you've read my intro post page you already know that I started out as a weak, fat slob & was laughed at & rejected by girls except for one who I finally started dating in grade 11 at 18yrs old. Apparently she like me even when I was a slob even though all her friends laughed & made fun of me. I always ignored her because I thought she was trying to play a mean joke on me. In grade 11 I was 5ft9" & weighed almost 195lbs mostly muscle after training for almost 2yrs. That's when I started getting noticed by the same girls who laughed at me but I rejected them. But then the girl who was nice to me in grade 8 came onto me & told me the truth about how she really felt & it wasn't just because I transformed my body. So I started goin' with her. Since then I've been with 7 girls & they were all very good looking. One was even a couple of inches taller than me at about 6ft tall weighing about 160lbs. Tall, short, medium height it doesn't matter. I'm an assman so it's important that they have a nice curvy round booty & nice face. I've found that if you don't run to them right away it's better for you as always running to them makes the guy look like a needy puppy dog which is something grils & women don't want. If you see a girl checking you after a few days say hello & keep it short. Ignore her for awhile longer & let her come to you (unless she is a complete airhead, & you'll probably have to go after her) which she probably will as she's showing signs she's interested. Then when you are interacting with compliment her outfit or hair, eyes, as you get to know her better you can start telling her she's looking good & things like that it depends on the girl, some like hardcore sexual compliments eg I've told certain girls that their ass is looking good in those pants today, some love things like that. You have to find out what type of person she is. Then don't wait to much longer cause she'll think you're not interested but ask her on a date dinner, coffee. Movies are bad as you can't talk to them. When you do have a conversation don't talk about yourself too much unless they ask questions. Ask things about them & find out their interests, likes, & dislikes. If you do start dating them always respect them & treat them well, & they will treat you well. One type of girl to stay away from is the girl who always have guys or men hanging around them. They're usually bad news. Trust me from experience. Hope this advice helps.Take care Johnny.

All right...I'll let ya in on how the quiet town bad boy caught me...

First...he found out what he could about me. Got my number from a friend of mine that was an ex of his.
He knew that I liked to chill on Friday evenings at the local pizza place with my friends. There were about 12 of us at the time. We'd all just hop in our cars and head out. He made sure that he was 'in my line of vision'. He either jumped in my car or he made sure he was sitting near me at the pizza place.

Second...he found out what I did for a job. I was an independent newspaper carrier, test drove cars and trucks for my dad and worked at a stable. He offered to help me test drive the cars and trucks and didn't crack smart remarks when I was working on my Camaro. He also defended me when some smart alec had something to say about a girl wrenching on a car. I was impressed that he would defend me...he won some serious points on that.

Third...he found out what I liked to do. I liked, movies, playing pool, stock and drag racing, hiking, swimming and such. He started calling me in the morning to see what I was doing that afternoon or evening and he'd ask me to join him. Then in the afternoon he would call back to let me know he was still looking forward to seeing me that night. We didn't talk much on the phone it was not something either of us cared to do.

So find out what kind of places she likes to go to. Be yourself, be interested in her.

My son's wife found out that he liked hiking and fishing and such...she had her eye on him and one day he stopped in the rec room on base and asked if anyone wanted to go fishing with him for the day. She told him she would go and he decided that she was a keeper. They're married and have a beautiful little girl now.

Here is another hint...most women can spot a player a mile away...the smart ones who have some self esteem won't waste a moment of their time. Only women who play or have low self esteem get caught up with players.

Have you had any luck with that girl yet dude? I think the best advice so far is be yourself. I know it's rough just going up to a girl that you don't know but even if your voice cracks a little bit, if the girl likes you in the first place she'll appreciate the fact that you initiated things. I don't know many girls that would ask you out even if they like you so it's up to you. If a funny situation ever happens with you and a girl you like is there, make a general comment like "whoa! did you see that?" When you're both cracking up just casually introduce yourself and if she introduces herself and gives you a warm smile then things are golden! Don't forget to ask for her number if yall had a moment because some other guy could beat you to the punch the next day or you might not see her again. If you ever catch her looking or smiling at you in the hall just go up to, if you can't think of anything just go with this "Hi, is your name amy? you look like my friend from blah blah elementary" of course her name probably isn't amy but if she's smiling and not weirded out then introduce yourself and keep on going. Don't use my move if you can come up with your own. Show the girl you care about her and be yourself. I used to be shy too, but i learned all it takes is a little courage. I've seen some fugly guys land major babes so don't ever count yourself out.

Don't even think about it...you'll totally lose a second chance...a resentful angry female is h-e-double toothpick to deal with.
