    The shift. It's such a great expression. I feel OP's pain though. Every male knows that for a lot of their teenage years women are this exotic species that can only be admired from afar.

    exotic species hahaha, if you ever want that rose tinted view to fade, go into the ladies bathrooms.

    Ladies ha ...

    totally agree. op, you'll notice the older you get, the more attracted younger women become of you, for absolutely no other reason other than your age and 'maturity'

    Soooo much flirty flirty crap.
    Maybe Tar can help you OP ;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 192 ✭✭superblu


    Yeah OP hang in there and very soon all the balls will be in your court. Women hold the upper hand from the ages of 16-26 and then the tables turn in a major way. In terms of getting the shift when you are younger it's just a numbers game and the harder you try the luckier you will get. Too many men are fazed by rejection. Just get back up on the horse everytime and you will have your day in the sun.

    have any of ye any advice for me.
    i can't get women to shift me on nights out.

    i always make the effort to chat to them but they always end up with some c**t.

    Save up as much money as you can and spend the summer in Thailand/Frankfurt/Amsterdam. Stop stereotyping people as c**ts even if they are. Instead have admiration for success and copy what works. I often think when someone achieves something well : fair play to the bastard. But I can still borrow an idea and patent my own version of what works. Begrudgery holds you back. In fact it is something that tends to hold the Irish back in general. Be positive minded. Stop putting women on a pedestal as a group like they are some kind of sub/different species. Get to know them before you judge them just like you would get to know anyone else before you could form an opinion about them. Dont be stereotyping everyone in every situation as it's usually just a cover for a lazy dull unsharp mind. Hit the gym and work on your body as well as on your mind bullets. Try to be in the right place at the right time and maximise the chances of it by being as social as possible. And if all else fails.. then fake it till you make it. Lie your fecking ass off about everything to put yourself into a positive light.... that bmw was crashed into by a drunk driver while innocently parked so for now you have to take the bus etc. You are on a career break etc etc. You just invented the new facebook in your bedroom and are in intense talks with venture capitalists etc etc Consider it as training for a future political or business career :D. Theres a viewpoint that women who are attracted to c**nts should be given what they want lol So be a c**t yourself if all else fails.

    I can kinda understand where the expression riding came from but the origins of the expression shifting is a mystery.

    Unfortunately this happens all too often. Women then feel like they're something special.

    Try saying this to her: 'With this credit crunch we really should consolidate our assets - why don’t you buy me a drink?' :D

    Wouldn't that be liquidising your assets ?

    Mention the land, its a great turn-on. When she asks do you drive a tractor say "No, but I drive like one". Then pick up the remains of your dignity and use something original.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 55 ✭✭ChickenZombie


    If it's a GF you want, don't hit on them, be nice, relax, smile and go for the slow approach... GF = Relationship which means it's personality based... Making a woman laugh and feel comfortable and unthreatened is my advice.

    If it's a quick shag you're chasing, it up to the mercy of the meat market...

    Puppy dog eyes might do the trick! Make the girl feel comfortable and have a laugh. Keep it simple and relaxed let it go with the flow and see what happens! No pressure.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,037 ✭✭✭Nothingbetter2d


    i find this works well for me.

    Making girls laugh.

    Be cheeky but never go overboard... women seem to like cheeky quick witted comments.

    you can be a little naughty in your cheekiness but never go too graphic or perverted, they'll think your a saddo or creepy.

    they like it if you can come back with another cheeky reply to theirs if you can do it on the fly.

    Always be yourself

    Most women can spot a bullsh!tter a mile off. Never boast about yourself either. Being modest goes along way...

    Never go on about being depressed or lonely

    Most women don't find needy or depressing guys attractive. It often shows you have low self esteem. Most women prefer self confidence in men.

    Topics of conversation

    Avoid techy talk... most women find it boring. if you talk about sports first ask her what kinds of sports she likes... then chat about that. If she is not into sports then move onto a different topic.

    Good luck with your search for a woman. I hope this helps.

    I couldnt have put it better my self, wimmen love the ould confidence, but dont take it too far.
    It's prob not advise to inform her that you'd like to ride her six way from sunday straight off the bat, of course there are a few exceptions to the rule but few and far between, think of them as a wee kitten, that's scared of you, you have to earn it's trust, before you get to pet the pussy ;)
