Stupid things you've done to attract the opposite sex

Me and my friend both fancied the same girl in primary school, so we decided to write a song for her. This involved assembling some saucepans, Tupperware pots and a small upturned bin, locating my recorder (you know, the thing you blow into), a blank tape and hitting record on my shitty stereo. We then proceeded in singing our hearts out about utter nonsense, mentioning her name intermittently. We inventively titled our magnum opus as 'Charlotte'. And yes, we gave it to this girl, fully expecting her to fall in love with both of us.

Turns out, she ended up kissing my partner in crime, leaving me feeling pretty fobbed off if I'm honest. This all took place around the age of 10... I'm pretty much over it now.

You were angling for a threesome, weren't you?

Apparently talking about music isn't a good way to pick up chicks.

Me: So what bands do you like?
Girl: Everclear
Me: Bwahahaha!

Yes, that actually happened.

Talking about music is fine if you just accept that people listen to music you think is crap but for you stay far away from talking about music.

you could have just followed up with "I havent heard them years do they have anything new out" or "I could never get into Everclear what do like about them?"

See how easy that is?

Hah, I'm awful for that.

Me: What kind of stuff do you like?
Girl I fancy: Oh, I like Meatloaf, MCR...
Me: Pfft, you're joking with me, right?

I need a girl that loves Mogwai...

Listened to hours and hours of anecdotes about guns, getting into fights, smoking pot, their days, what Hogwarts house they'd get sorted into, the attractiveness of Natalie Portman, the bitchiness of their succubi exes, Richard Nixon, why bombing Hiroshima was a good idea (he was a real doosh), why invading the Middle East is justified (so was he), fourwheelers, bikes, remodeling cars, why they write their shit poetry, and why a woman should never be president....I'm pretty good at pretending to be interested in shit I guess. I didn't know so many people found submissiveness and silence to be so attractive...

I guess I'm also good at pretending to believe them when they brag about how many drugs they've done, how big their dicks are, how many dudes they've taken in fights, and how great they are at giving head.

Wow, you're a real douche magnet. Tell them they suck, and maybe a non-douche will be like "Hey, this girl rules! I've been waiting for somebody to tell that prick he sucks for years now." Also, do The Robot in public. Guys who can't dance will worship you.

I remember in high school leaving love notes and poems for this girl I like but signing it as secret admirere. I would watch her smiling from down the hall as she read them. I did a big reveal on Valentine's Day and gave her some flowers. I was too shy to say anything more than I was the secret admirer and give the flowers then walked away. She was completely disappointed to find out it was me.

The stupidest thing I ever do is not do anything stupid to attract them. Nearly every girl I've ever fancied has either never received any sign from me that we're anything more than friends (nerves to go any further) or has had their affections dodged by me because I'm too damn jumpy about it.

If a guy was discussing what Hogwarts house he would be in I'd be all over that ****.
