Chicks are appalled to get friendzoned.

Its like the chatter that guys always get friendzoned, but if a guy does it to a girl, its like earth shattering.

Then I have found a girl to go through several stages:

a) anger that she was not deemed good enough to date

b) realization guy does not want to hook up with her

c) urge to now hook up with him immediately because she can't have him

But - he already friendzoned her, so its like free unattached hookups. I'm not necessarily saying I'm going for that, but just a sequence of events in relational trend analysis (RTA).

"Hölder" I'm not willing to invest in this strategy

You don't need to invest, you'll just see this happen sometimes. Girls want what they can't have.

I really dread the friendzone talk when I have to give one. I'm really empathetic, bruh.

lots of vodka and poker this week

I seem to play better if I have 1 shot every 10 minutes.

I really would love to play live like this - I usually play poker live dead sober with redbulls

today have unicorn tears on vape and lots of espresso - this is the combination + dark chocolate almond milk

"Unicorn Tears is a strain that is a heavenly blend of Kush strains that will leaves the user feeling like they are floating on clouds. An immediate rush of calming mental euphoria washes over the mind while the body sinks into the couch. This fruity strain has flavors of sour apple jolly ranchers, grape sno-cones, that signature kush marshmallow smell with fuel and gas. To create this strain, the growers crossed Sour Apple IBL male x Unicorn OG female (Topanga Pure Kush x Triangle Kush) Topanga Pure Kush X Triangle Kush. This strain is an Indica, perfect for enjoying after a long day."

If the drunk version of you is so aware that you turn girls down for being drunk, I have to compliment you for leveling up.

"Intern in S&T - Equities" This is a pathetic thread

Sounds like you've never friendzoned a chick. Trust me the levels of escalation of not giving attention to chicks drives them nuts.

I met a chick on a plane, though not really in my interest. I didn't see her the whole time on the flight and she was middle seat - I was aisle. It was some flight like ATL-LGA or something. We are waiting to get off the plane and I was pretty tired and had a nap.

Then she like prompts this questioning to me. She was like - we never even talked the whole plane ride. I was like "sorry?" what do you need - a bag overhead or something? She was like "no - we should have had at least a conversation." I was thinking like who is this chick and obviously saw her and was not interested and so just was like whatever. For some reason this all amped her up and she was determined to get me to come out and 'party in NYC'. I had serious doubts and initially just said 'no' - but then she got me to call her cell so she got my number and then when I got home, she texted 'headed out with a bunch of hot chicks - you should come'.

So naturally, I'm thinking - ok wow - she gets that I don't like her and is being a sort of wingman. I was wrong. I get there and somehow I'm 'the guy for her' among her and her friends. I feel immediately trapped. I really didn't even think this girl was hot enough to hook up with. I made it clear I wanted her friend. So we talked and then her friend was all like "I can't hook up with you cause she has dibs". Totally cockblocked me from the start with all of her friends. We were at some Karaoke place in Korea town. I then started to get bored of all this and decided to just turn up the volume on the Jack and coke. I started getting hammered like full beer goggles hammered - like not sloppy drunk but obviously feeling it but put together. She notices and says "its disrespectful" that I'm getting beer goggles just to "hook up with her". "I was like clearly I am not hooking up with you." This set this girl on fire.

From that moment on this level of friendzone was so high at this Korean Karaoke place that this chick was somehow not leaving my side, despite my requests. I was so hammered that I just told her it wasn't going to work - I didn't think she was hot enough to get it done - and she was all like what are you gay pussy - and I had the audacity to tell her that she really needs a pillowcase on her head to make this somewhat work. That's the only way I could fuck this chick. So she wore it and stuff but am greeted by horrid memories when she slightly took it off or something, which haunts me to this day.

I have a large supply of friendzone tendency stories and they all result to chicks getting super horny and do anything to get past the friendzone wall.

There is some anxiety though that you feel towards chicks. I went to my smoke buddy's place for the second time last week and it was super perfect cleaned up and she got all 'made up' and was wearing nice shit when we were just supposed to hang out.

It seemed clear she wanted to be more than just friends, but this chick has two kids and divorced - I am not going anywhere near baggage like that.

So we hung out and it was fine, but I was totally feeling like the friendzone talk was imminent. I wasn't all cuddly cuddly with her so I think she got the idea.

Another chick - my former neighbor actually. Has crush on me. I make it clear I'm not interested in dating. So she will do anything. The friendzoning has been crushing her.

She asks me out sailing when she goes with her crew. Its fun to hang out. We have wine nights, but nothing much happens until one night I got super hammered.

She asks me straight up - why can't we hook up or date - in this state you can basically ask anything from a chick - and I was wasted too - so was like - I don't know - why don't you take off your shirt (she had perfect boobs). But, still was not that into her, but gave her some play.

In the end though, was ok with kind of hooking up because she was moving out. I generally don't like to hook up with neighbors, roommates, gym chicks (not my gym), or work chicks.

"Isaiah_53_5" I generally don't like to hook up with neighbors, roommates, gym chicks (not my gym), or work chicks.

Ain't this make up the most of our daily interactions with women?

Remember seeing this video where the guy talked about proximity being a key ingredient to getting someone (i.e. it's easier to get someone at work than it is across the Atlantic). He listed school, work, extracurriculars (gym, dog in the park) and place of religion as the main 4 spots to meet similar-minded women.

I'm going to take a guess and say that you aren't looking for anything that isn't casual because finding wifey on Tinder or the club is about as probable as me beating an NBA player in a 1v1.

 

Dude you are SO pathetic. You made this thread to brag about how girls would do anything to hook up with you. This is delusional. The examples you mentioned happen to any girl way more often than they happen to you. And it has nothing to do with the chicks being in love you (they clearly aren’t if you met them that same day), or you being insanely attractive. It’s just that some people don’t like being told no. Some people are immature and do not react well when they cannot get what they want. This holds for both men and women. And you look like an absolute tool bragging on a finance website about seeing the boobies of a girl you’re not even attracted to. What are you, 13?!

 

Another chick - met on the street selling donations to 3rd world children at Union Square. She said she would take a break and grab some beers.

She lived way up in the UWS and we went to some college bar that had cheap pitchers. We got hammered immediately. Then I was like 'you're cool - we should be bffs' then she was like - what are you gay or something - I want to hook up. And I was like I don't know how do I know we aren't just friends - show me your nipples - and she flashed me right then in the bar. Chicks are so crazy. We went back to her place after the pitchers. Smoked some 420 too - thennnn never saw her again - lol. She was cool though. Pierced nipples.

"Analyst 2 in IB - Ind" Treat em like shit. Makes them want you even more.

Its not even like I am to treat girls badly. Its my explicit non-interest that drives them crazy.

I can't believe I'm even dignifying your post with a response, but I'm only going to acknowledge you once, so listen.

I've noticed multiple posts like this from you recently. This is WSO, not a forum on how to get laid. I'm sure there's something on the internet if that's what you're looking for. But not the rest of us. I'm here to mentor young, ambitious professionals who want to move up in their finance careers.

If you're really are as suave as you say, you wouldn't be posting anonymously on THIS site to get validation from 20-something year olds.

You're almost 40 years old? Take my advice, which is for your own good-- get your head out of your ass and grow the fuck up.

 

This is off topic bro - get over yourself. I play a lot of poker and shit post on here a lot - if you don't like it, throw MS - that's how it works.

"Sequoia" Dude what happened to you? I remember when you had some useful posts, but past half year it's just gone down a dark path....everything ok?

Thanks for the insightful question.

I am responsible for a lot right now in my family and really just don't GAF in certain ways anymore. I've also started playing poker semi-pro again and just prefer to drink when I'm playing as I somehow play better. Except, I have to avoid falling asleep if I have too many drinks, such is the balance.

I'm still posting on the job boards to help. I genuinely believe in the WSO process. I didn't have it when I graduated in 2006 and wish I had it then, so hope others have it now.

Ignored some chick at my Dad’s birthday party last night as I entertained the kids and rallied them all to play football. Chick found-followed me via IG that same night and invited me to a BBQ @ her friend’s place. Although OP genuinely isn’t interested, I am but I stick to strategy. Works 7/10 of the time. Other times they’ll just fuck the BETA who can’t stop running his mouth.
