Secrets to Approaching a Girl in a Group

Posted by Blade On July - 15 - 2010

Has this ever happened to you? You walk into your favourite bar and you notice a group of giggling girls sat at a table. You notice one in particular. You want to talk to her but you have no idea how to get her attention through all her friends. Hot girls always seem to roll in groups sometimes in groups of just girls other times with some guys. I’m often asked what are the basic rules of approaching a girl that is in one of these intimidating groups.

So You Dont Want To Play The Game

Posted by Blade On November - 5 - 2009

VENT ALERT! Oh, you don’t want to “play that game”? Think the perfect guy should instantly see all you have to offer, and you shouldn’t have to work for it? . I’ve met a few guys who said they don’t want to play that game either. Women should flock to them because they are nice, and sweet. No points for guessing how that’s working out. It’s not about “nice”, it’s about how the world is!

If what you are doing is yielding you the results that you want in your dating life..then more power to you. If not, perhaps you need to change the way you think.
LIFE DOES NOT OWE YOU SHIT!

Stories And Lessons From The Women in My Life

Posted by Blade On August - 17 - 2009

world-war-11-strong-women

August is Women’s month. I got thinking the other day about what I appreciate about the women in my life. I spend a lot of time on this blog talking about women , so this is a short summary of the various lessons and highlights about the women in my life over the years.
Sure God created man before woman.  But then you always make a rough draft before the final masterpiece.

Mom – You taught me an appreciation for a strong women and how to cook. Thank you. Just like you said…these points have served me well.

My sisters – You taught me the importance of fully owning the role of big brother. I’m no longer afraid of leading the women in my life and knowing when to sit back when it’s not about me.

Mari – You taught me how to kiss. Less tongue you said…take the mood into consideration..you said.

Rosanne – You are completely nuts and unpredictable. Despite your stormy disposition I learned how to remain strong and steadfast for you. A skill I use throughout other areas of my life. “Just Be Cool”

Charlize – Your commitment issues made me feel better about my own. I thought I was messed up until I met your ass.

Joey – How was I supposed to know that you wanted to be tied up? I’m not a mind reader.

Janine – I was wondering how long it would take you to realise that your wiles didn’t work on me. You are a beautiful girl..certainly… but you are going to need much more than a smile, wink and a mini skirt to wrap me around your little finger.

Shanna – I was impressed when you approached me to chat. That took balls…especially because I was standing there with a  group of my buddies after the rugby game. Glad you liked your reward.

Dida – I thought it was cute you got upset at me because my birthday party had more girls than guys present. I didn’t understand that.

Mich – You let me flirt with you for hours without telling me…you were dating someone…and that she was hot!

Margo -  I don’t think your daughter would have appreciated your attempts to seduce me…despite your boyfriend saying he wouldn’t mind watching.

Tash – Glad you came out. I should have know it when I caught you checking out the same girl I was on several occasions.

Marie – Your douchebag boyfriend and looser friends threatened me for hanging out with you….doesn’t he know we worked together? I can’t believe your now married to that low life. You deserve so much better.

Liz – You should be more discreet when blowing your boyfriend…when you KNOW I’m in the other room. At least close the gawd damn door!

Anne – You keep saying you cannot separate sex and feelings. In the same breath you mention how your fuck-buddy is selfish in bed.

Dine – You were one of the very few girls that I would have no problem calling my girl.

Lena – I warned you not to fall for me…I wasn’t the guy for you….yet you did. Now I’m the douche bag that broke your heart. I understand that I have to be the asshole in your eyes in order for you to get over me…and its ok.

Lolie – Flirting for weeks, only to tell me you had a boyfriend. A little unfair don’t you think ? It was fun..but I can’t do that anymore.

Agatha – ..knowing what I do and my blog…you still think you can use me to make my friend and wingman jealous? Thought you were smarter than that.

Sonia– You really shouldn’t feel self-conscious about your age..you got more life that most of these youngsters I know.

Maja– Asking me for advice on how to have a threesome with those twins that you liked…had to have been the most interesting conversation we have had…Ever.

Juliana – Sorry I had to end it….You got way too loud after 2 glasses of wine…I couldn’t handle it when the people around us had to listen in to your monologues about your preferences in the sack.

Phillipa –Your boyfriend is one of my oldest friends. I think it SUCKS that you have to make him have to choose between us. He now feels guilty hanging with me because you are worried that I’m going introduce him to someone new. You would have never met him if I didn’t introduce you to him that night. You need to trust him, even if you don’t trust me. Hes a good guy.

Robyn – …I don’t understand why you kept me from knowing you were seeing someone…despite having spoken about our love lives as friends. Just found that a little odd.

Nadia – You dismiss men for the most insignificant things then turn around and complain about the lack of men around.

Holly – Thanks for taking care of me when I clearly partied over my limit…I cant believe you gave me a bath! WTF

How can a woman be expected to be happy with a man who insists on treating her as if she were a perfectly normal human being.” – Oscar Wilde

6 Cape Town First Date Venues

Posted by Blade On July - 8 - 2009

first-date_965804

I find first dates exiting and nerve racking at the same time. I generally don’t call them first dates because I choose not to view them like that. I prefer to go into a first date with the thought that it’s a continuation of the first meeting. Some of the most fun first dates I’ve have always been ones where my date and I were both relaxed.
Of course the venue contributes a whole lot to this relaxation factor.
I have chosen these places because I’ve been there on a first date or they possess the atmosphere conducive to a great first date. Most of the venues here are in the cape town CBD / Long Street so if you live around this area you can move from one joint to another.

Find yourself a girl and settle down

Posted by Blade On May - 21 - 2009

During high school and a few years after, I was known to my friends as the professional single guy. I told them I didn’t have a girlfriend BY CHOICE, a total lie.

I wasn’t a social outcast; I used to get invited to parties etc.

I remember at several occasions when the song below, The Raconteurs – Steady as she goes , would  play someone used to go…”where is Blade ? “ .  as if to say the tune reminded them of me.

The first two  lines of this tune are “ Find yourself a girl and settle down, Live a simple life in a quiet town.” It was a running joke for some time.

Boy how things have changed, or not. My friends still ask “where is Blade?”  when this tune comes on.

The context is different now.

The picture above illustrates me what I mean.
The top half represents my high school days, the bottom represents present day.

My point?

Build it and they will come. – Field of dreams

Find yourself a girl, and settle down.
Live a simple life in a quiet town.
Steady as she goes… (steady as she goes)
Steady as she goes… (steady as she goes)
So steady as she goes.

Your friends have a shown a kink in the single life.
You’ve had too much to think, now you need a wife.
Steady as she goes… (steady as she goes)
So steady as she goes… (steady as she goes)

Well, here we go again,
You’ve found yourself a friend that knows you well.
But no matter what you do,
You’ll always feel as though you tripped and fell.
So steady as she goes.

When you have completed what you thought you had to do,
And your blood’s depleted to the point of stable glue,
Then you’ll get along, then you’ll get along.
Steady as she goes… (steady as she goes)
So steady as she goes… (steady as she goes)

Well, here we go again,
You’ve found yourself a friend that knows you well.
But no matter what you do,
You’ll always feel as though you tripped and fell.
So steady as she goes.
Steady as she goes.

Settle for a world, neither up or down.
Sell it to the crowd that is gathered round.
Settle for a girl, neither up or down.
Sell it to the crowd that is gathered round.

So steady as she goes… (steady as she goes)
Steady as she goes… (steady as she goes)
Steady as she goes… (steady as she goes)
So steady as she goes… (steady as she goes)

Steady as she goes, are you steady now?
Steady as she goes, are you steady now?
Steady as she goes, are you steady now?
Steady as she goes, are you steady now?
Steady as she goes.
