Highly unlikely! I like it when a man can keep up! Mentally of course.

That's pretty much what you're saying with your first line. No, this is what YOU are saying. Don't blend words together that I didn't say because it suits you.

If you don't get something...wouldn't you want as much information as possible in order to figure something out? Correct, but it's not about something I don't get ... read please before you judge

But you're saying you don't want information and don't care about the information you are actually presented.
What do you think that means?Read before you judge and don't rip my words out of context.


All conversations require some kind of informing process.
"Look at that guy, can you believe that?"
"Can you believe that?"
sure, but if you inform about things about YOU that are totally irrelevant at that moment, don't expect to get interest.
One is informing you of something you may not be aware of...and starting a conversation.

The other is just a vague pointless question which allows you to have all sorts of conversations in your head like "wtf are they talking about, and why me?"
What's that got to do with my question? Can you stay on topic? And maybe read what I was asking about instead of having a field day with your analysis that doesn't make sense. Or play some CoD if you're having a bad hair day. Might work better.


Real life is not the internet.

You can't start conversations online the same way you do offline. Really? I don't see much difference in how you start a conversation to be honest.
You aren't in a dynamic environment where you can rely on gestures and tone and body language.Which makes it even more important to not come up with some total BS opening line.

You have to provide some kind of context.

Not to mention, in real life you don't have to rely so much on conversation and words. People figure out very quickly if they want the most basic approach to lead to anything more than the other person just going away, and most of that decision is not based on what comes out of the mouth.
So you saying in RL you can get away with crap opening lines like the ones I was getting at in my OP? I think not ...

I would bet anything if in real life you said "hello" to someone and they could just kinda disappear and not respond at all in any way whatsoever leaving absolutely no clue, literally just transported away like in Star Trek as soon as you said a single word to them, people would start putting out as much information as possible before that happened.

Online people have the option of just saying nothing. No wry looks, no sighs, no running away, no rolling of the eyes, no cold shoulder, no "I've got to go now."
Just absolutely nothing with absolutely no meaning is not possible offline.

Other than that, look at this thread.
You "could" have simply typed: "how you approach women?"
With nothing else.
But you chose to "inform" the relevance and context of the question, you filled in what you felt was relevant information.
Specialized to the situation. A forum which some people use for discussion of specific topics.


Based on recent and numerous general forums it seems there's no way to actually start a conversation with a woman online unless you can read her mind through the internet. no, not if you are
-judgemental
-copy & paste a woman's words in a way that suits you and rip them out of context
-don't read what a woman is saying
-don't read what a woman is asking about
-don't seem to get what a woman is asking about
-come up with crap opening lines, and don't even acknowledge they're crap because of 'gender - loyalty'
-jump to the defense of your fellow males at the expense of women ...
... gender bashing is so unattractive! Maybe spend as much time thinking as to why you need to do that as you've spent on typing this post?

Keep up, mentally...huh....can do that and more....though mental pictures do tend to get more vivid as time goes by, making it harder...if you clue in....

So you're into pity-dates? Works 66% of the time ... but it'll never get you at the altar again!
Oh, you don't want that thou sayest? No need to start swearing, bloody 'ell!

Vivid mental pictures ... so you're a visual person ... Best leave the lights on then!
