>>439676 This. Even Opik has yet to finalise his plans for an intergalactic sex commune.
Personally the past year has been pretty good (apocalypse aside) there was a big promotion, I saved lots of money, had an okay relationship end on terms open to going back if I fancy it and I ate a fuck-ton of nice food. My 30s are turning out to be pretty good in general which I think is something most blokes find, even accounting for how hangovers now take the piss, I'm happy.
Literally my only worry at the moment is I should think about having a family in the next few years because kids sound like an endurance exercise but that probably puts me in the real 1% of humanity. There's even the sliver of hope that those professors might crack biological immortality in my lifetime making it all a bit moot.
I had a threesome when I was 17, that was pretty good.
Uni was great, just a three year long party - I think like most people, it's easy to say your teenage/early twenties are the peak, as it's when you're having fun, discovering new stuff, and not really having anything to stress about.
But at the same time, I'm 31 now and have a career I fucking love, have hobbies and interests I never even considered five or so years ago, and perhaps some of the closest friends I've ever had, too. But I'd rather not entertain the idea that my peak has come and gone - I become more comfortable and give less of a fuck year on year.
>>439682 I reckon he has a slightly scummy vibe about him that appeals to (some) women. We've all known a bloke like that who seems to do well with women.
It's a numbers game. The world is full of mental women with terrible taste in men and/or extremely low self esteem, you just need the drive to sniff them out.
I see and hear a lot when a bloke is punching above his weight "oh he must have a massive knob" - how many women are really going to latch on to an otherwise undesirable man just because he has a big thick cock? I consider myself pretty depraved and shallow, but even I wouldn't start a relationship with an uggo just because she had massive tits (I might shag her once though).
The old "he must be loaded" usually makes more sense, though I think even that is pushing it, especially these days, where a woman can independently use sex to generate money instead of having to shag a boring old millionaire.
Saying that, women do still seem attracted to people in power, or at least with jobs that give the mostly false impression of importance like pilots, head chefs, and lib dem MPs.
>how many women are really going to latch on to an otherwise undesirable man just because he has a big thick cock?
Skinny wierdo with a massive cock here: Not many. There are some size queens who'll go for it, but the thing is they have to know you have a massive cock, so of course, you have to warm them up far enough to be receptive to a shag before you can use your endowment as leverage in the first place. It's a catch 22.
My pet theory is that he has a belting sense of humour. My experience has always supported the idea that if you can make a girl laugh, you can probably get in her pants, so combine that with a bit of the "important and powerful" factor and it's no surprise he can pull.
I mean look at Bozza. He's loaded, but he's also some kind of mutant albino ape that was mistakenly sent to Eton.
This is an unfair test, I'm funny enough in normal conversation to trick girls into sleeping with me, but I'd similarly fucking bomb on stage, it's a totally different thing, I'd be awful.
The fact that he's up there at all proves at least a couple of people have said the universally dull line "you should do stand up!". The only difference is because he's got a politicians ego, he actually listened.
>>439684 I know a guy (some people would describe us as best friends, but I'm uncomfortable calling him a friend at all; that's how awful he is) and he has this skill. I've seen him do it. It's not even about approaching women; they approach him. He says there are lots of tricks involving body language, and where to stand in the room, and so on, but he is a compulsive liar and mentally unwell and I certainly haven't learnt any of these tips from him, so I suspect his seduction powers come down entirely to what I think he has: hoe-dar. It's like gaydar for hoes. His catastrophic insecurity and spiritual weakness have the upside of letting him sense those things in other people. Sometimes he has claimed, outlandishly, that he can seduce anyone, and when I pick a random stranger, the response is invariably, "No, not her. How about her over there? Look at all her tattoos and piercings. I bet she's fantastic." Because he can see that she is the sort who responds well to his twattery, while most women despise him.
Hoe-dar: it's gaydar for hoes. Feel free to share this concept with your friends.
>>443007 FUCK the only reason I replied to this thread at all is so I can post the incredibly depressing image that describes my life perfectly, and then I forgot to add it. It's unrelated to what I just said, but it describes how I feel about my life peaking, absolutely perfectly.
