>What is /htgwg/?
How to Get Women General is by men, for men, about women, so bring all of your questions about getting and dealing with women here. Some anons on this site actually get laid, and some of them even want to help. If you're trying to meet and date women, then this is the place to ask questions, seek advice, and share experiences. We know how hard it can be. We got you bro.

>What is /htgwg/ not?
These threads are NOT for whining, moping, incels, volcels, MGTOW, hopelessness, or demoralization. We're all aware that meeting and dating women is hard today, and even harder for some, but /htgwg/ is for trying to overcome the challenges. IGNORE the posters who complain, give up, or insist there's nothing they can do. This site has other boards and threads that they can pollute. BE SMART: Spot the bait, don't reply, and DON'T WASTE TIME ARGUING WITH THEM!

>How to ask for advice
Context is important: be more specific than "This girl ghosted me, why?" We can't help if we don't know the situation, so try to provide as much (useful) info as possible ("I was at the bar, this chick was checking me out..."). What's your relationship with the girl? How long have you known her? Any conversation screenshots? Etc... Don't forget to ask an actual question.

REMEMBER: It's good to read and prepare, but don't overdo it. Get off this site: go learn and build up your social skills by meeting actual women in the real world.

My question from the last thread that got no replies:
I'm a 32 year old white man but I'm 5'8 so should I resort to running JBW game on ethnic women? If so where would I meet ethnic women who like men simply for being white in America? (I don't want to go to any SA or SEA country because I've never been on a plane before and might have developed a fear of flying due to lack of familiarity)
>>
>>33874578
It wasn’t responded to bc you’re retarded.

You are taller than the average girl. It’s not your height that’s the problem. It’s you.

>>33874616

>>33874620
The confidence to approach the girl is the same confidence to approach the group. I hate to use this bullshit term, but…rizz. To be able to approach them all as a group and speak to them all, with that light level of flirt that makes the group feel that slight level that they are all special, before turning your attention to the one who why you walked up in the first place.

Opening is the hardest part. With a solo woman it's easy. "Waiting for someone?" "Hey, I like your earrings." With a group it's hard to not feel like an intruder.
>>
>>33874696
>With a group it's hard to not feel like an intruder.
That’s the shit. You ARE an intruder. And it not just that one girl judging you, it’s all of them. They operate off of social proof. That’s the dance. You have to take the group into account. You have to kind of rizz the group. Because if the group doesn’t like you, then that’s the wall keeping you from the girl. How do you approach? In a way that makes them all like you.
>>
>>33874723
>How do you approach? In a way that makes them all like you.
Be tall and facially attractive, that's literally the only way to make people you are intruding on like you.
>>
>>33874734
>Be tall and facially attractive, that's literally the only way to make people you are intruding on like you.
Yeah this is bullshit. It’s a binary. Either they want to be left alone or they want to be approached. That’s the binary.

I've never approached a woman with the intention to date her, and the reason is I don't really know how to do it. Do I just say "Hey, I think you're pretty, here's my number"? Do I have to do something to build up to that? I really don't know. It's even worse if I know the girl beforehand, because I don't know how to segway from a friendship to a relationship. I would really appreciate some help
>>
>>33874756
>Do I just say "Hey, I think you're pretty, here's my number"?
If you have never before. Just do that. There is no secret sauce. Just take the plunge. Sure, there are nuances and tactics, but no shit…just approach.
>>
>>33874751
>want to be approached
Approached by whom though?
>>
>>33874776
>Approached by whom though?
Change that mindset. Approached by YOU. Be able to survive rejection and realize that they want YOU to approach.

I'm asking for help. What do you say?

diarrhea nigga fart
>>
>>33874787
I did give you help, even if you couldn’t read it. You approach the group, not the one. At least in the first approach. You don’t shove them away to get to the girl you actually want lol. You know how you made approaches for just one girl?..
>Waiting for someone?
>Hey, I like your earrings.
Have the same sort of things for addressing the group of girls. Address the group, let it be something light that they all like you enough from that, then go to the individual girl.

I messaged a girl on a dating site and I really like her. We have the same taste in everything and she is smart and cool. She always replies to me and says she thinks I'm interesting.
I'm 34 and I've been a neet shutin for a long ass time, and I'm socially awkward. I'm not sure like, how to proceed, I guess. We've been messaging each other for about a week now.
I'm so afraid that she might start to think I'm boring or lame or something and lose interest or find a more interesting guy. I already told her I think she's a beautiful person and very intelligent and well, I'm just super inexperienced with women and relationships and basically everything. I'm just not sure what to do. I'm also scared to death of asking her to voice chat because the last girl I VC'd with hung up on me in the middle of a conversation
>>
>>33875610
Ask her out retard
>>
>>33875671
she lives in europe and i live in the US
>>
So I liked and had sex with three times hasn’t responded to a message since the weekend. I get the feeling she lost interest but is there any way of salvaging it down the line? She is pretty busy with work and study and she doesn’t live in the same town as me but I did like her. Any suggestions on how to approach this?
>>
Has anyone had experience hooking up at anime/gaming cons? I feel like everyone is just running around in circles.
>>
>>33875728
Well ok keep chatting then what else can you do. You seem really obsessed with her man it's only a week and you have never met her. Stop simping so hard it's a really big turn off.
>>33875760
From apps? She might have found someone else. How often did you hang out and how often were you texting? Are both of you just looking for casual fwb or whats the goals?
If it's just casual and you hooked up say every weekend I'd wait out this week act like you're busy then next Wednesday/thursday or something send 'hey this thing still on [mic emoji]?' see if she's down that weekend. If she doesn't respond forget and go next.
If more serious idk man.

>Well ok keep chatting then what else can you do. You seem really obsessed with her man it's only a week and you have never met her. Stop simping so hard it's a really big turn off.
i'll try, thanks for the advice
i just think it's really cool that i met someone though who shares all my same interests and i dont want to fuck it up
>>
>>33875863
It's possible but not as promising as it sounds
If you have a good cosplay and you're somewhat attractive you'll probably get some female attention but it's hard to translate that into a hookup especially during the con itself. A lot of cosplay girls these days are also trying to break into streaming/influencing so ego inflation levels are through the roof.
That being said I've had dates with girls I've met at cons, and I've brought girls to cons as dates, so it's not the worst venue for romantic intentions.
Forget what you've heard about orgies at cons, that's not something you want to be a part of, like at all. And your pee won't burn the week after.
>>
>>33875868
>that's not something you want to be a part of
qrd?
If it's about them being ugly, I'm not picky. I'm mildly attractive, so I'll just have more attention.
>>
>>33875864
Nah we met at a party, hooked up then met up the next week on Friday and Saturday night and hooked up both nights. She lives in a different town and she’s busy as so I get if she saw it as something casual but even if that’s the case I don’t want to let it be a one off. Between the first and second time we were messaging somewhat regularly but after the last weekend she would take a bit to get back to me and now it’s been radio silence since Sunday. I think I might’ve given off the impression that I thought it was more serious than she thought it was, so if there’s anything to salvage I guess it’s that.
>>
What should I do if I'm talking to a girl and she replies to the conversation and laughs at the stuff I say but never asks any questions?

Anons, how to meet up with a bisexual woman IRL? How to kindly ask her about such experience and don’t make her feel that I interrogate her personal life? Since I live in slavic shithole, nobody is going to speak up about it to absolute random and I don’t want to waste time on a person who doesn’t have such experience. So cold approach (I suppose) won’t work here.
>>
>>33875760
>She is pretty busy with work and study and she doesn’t live in the same town as me
Avoid busy people as they don't have the mental capacity free to entertain bullshit like you wanting to stick you dick in her and texting to ease your insecurity. Idleness is the root of all vice.
>>
>>33874650
I'm not tall and girls like me, so there goes your graph little fella.

>>33876026
Maybe. You can try what I said, send something to see if she bites next week or in a couple weeks.

Hey yall
I just started this new class that doesn’t have many people maybe 15 of us in there
I got a seat towards the middle back of the class

There is a girl who sits towards the front and anytime she needs to throw something away or get something from across the classroom, she will purposefully walk all the way to where my seat is and literally run her fingers across my desk

At first I thought I was daydreaming shit until I purposefully put my head on my desk like I was “tired/napping” and my hand was hanging off the desk
Tell me why she walks why and brushes her ass on my hand
This can’t be an accident
I’ve never spoken to this girl before and we haven’t had a single interaction in this class
>>
>>33876733
"Accidental touching" is never accidental when a woman does it. It's an indicator of interest
>>
I don't frequent these threads, how many of you actually 'got women' in the past, say, month?
>>
>cute girl at my work is friendly to me
>have a big crush on her
>didn’t make a move because not even sure if she’s single
>find her on Hinge today
Any tips on how to proceed bros? I’m wondering if I should try and talk to her there or wait for in person but the problem is I have no idea when I’ll see her in person again
>>
>>33877108
The silence is deafening.

I may or may not go out tomorrow evening. Where should a guy with no car go?

>>33877175
Get drunk as fuck at a Halloween rave

Would I be a retarded idea to take a girl to the "student union" (it's like a little hub with some fast food places) at our college for the first date? Then if it's going well maybe suggest going to the nearby museum? I've never been on a date before for context
>>
>>33877263
That’s a good plan, actually. Having multiple activities lined up is smart
>>
>>33877283
Yeah I just don't know about suggesting the union, cause its mostly like chick fil a and McDonald's type food and kinda crowded but there are nice parts which are quiet. The more decent places to eat are kinda a long walk from anywhere.
Damn just looked it up and apparently they shut down the museum a year ago. Well there is an art museum too but she might've already been there. Hmmm.. I guess we'll see

How do I get over nerves? I can talk to girls I'm not attracted to or who I think of as "taken" just fine, but if I'm interested I can't seem to help dropping my spaghetti. Sure, practice, but it's bad enough to the point I can't even get my foot in the door.
>>
>>33877415
Practice getting your foot in the door
