>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.

Actually, now that I've had time to think about this a bit more, the whole sex only takes "X" minutes stuff is pretty much just coping. Sure, it's very fast and porn may be "fake" in how sex is sensationalized, but that doesn't mean you can't spend all day thinking about women and sex. Lust doesn't go away just because women will get you off quickly. Also, the post-sex clarity and satisfaction is a million times greater than having none whatsoever. Masturbation is also pretty quick, but what happens is you do not get as much clarity nor satisfaction because you do not get much pleasure from it. So you will just continue lusting more and more, and won't lust in a healthy manner either.

Though, the internet does create a fake external outlet that naturally wouldn't be the case since to see women we would want to be interacting with them, but now with the internet it's possible to see both videos and images and become aroused in situations that we wouldn't be interacting with them, thus leading to much sexual frustration, which is not really natural at all. Women nowadays are very cold because they can just ignore messages from the hundreds of men on online platforms. Porn just exacerbates this.

Is it over for me? I've been a loser my entire life. I am too ugly to ever get matches on dating apps.

I'm giving up on trying to have a relationship. This happens pretty much every time. I will see a girl frequently, she gives a smile and seems warm, I eventually introduce myself and make small chit chat, they usually laugh and ask questions so I think they are receptive, and then the next time I see them they won't look at me and give me the cold shoulder.

I have no idea what I'm doing that causes women to lose interest so quickly that they want to actively avoid me.

You've already established rapport and you complain she's not slobbering on your dick?

If you're not maintaining interest it's because you're boring. Enrich yourself. But more simply I think you need to get past the idea that women go AWOOOOGA every time they are attracted to a man. You still need to approach and start convos.
>>
You need to switch your goals when you go out. I know Zach and his bullshit, but this will help you. If you go in trying to hook up with the idea in your head "Hey I'm gonna go there and talk to a hot girl" as opposed to being perfectionist like "If I don't get a hot girl I'll be miserable" it'll be a lot easier for you. You got to stand proud and be laid back you got to live everyday okay? My advice is here to help you with painful rejection.

yes
or at least on the date you say "so what are you looking for" and go from there
>>

cope
i do this and it does not work
>>
>>34555683
Ask before the date, if the answer is something along the lines of "I'm just meeting people, seeing where it goes", then you're good to go. Women very rarely openly advertise being DTF on the apps to avoid being swarmed by coomers

Got a 42 year old milf on the hook. Her prompts say she’s looking for a boyfriend, not a life partner. We’re so fucking back.

There are a bunch of cute customers where I work and some of them seem interested in me. This is the first time this has happened to me. Is trying to exchange numbers at work a bad idea? How do I proceed
>>
>>34556184
Nice banter, but it doesn't work like that for everyone.
>>
Anon, when you go through several attempts at getting a girlfriend and keep failing even into your 40s, you did not find getting women to be impossible, you just found a lot of ways that didn't work.
>>
I went out a few nights ago and really hit it off with a girl while at a bar for country dancing. We danced and talked all night with some great chemistry so I got her instagram at the end of the night and told her I’d like to see her again. I drove home and finally took a long look at her instagram to find her wedding photos and she is very clearly still married which is something that did not come up during our long conversation.

Why do women do this and how would I avoid talking to a married woman in the future?
>>
>>34556627
you were around them all the time and had reasons to talk. if you didn't at least fuck the cute geeky/nerdy/anime girls you messed up. also band/choir were easy targets.
>>
>>34556704
I nearly got charged for stalking anon, and was heavily outcasted. People thought I'd be the next mass murderer on the news or turn into a child molestor. I really give off disturbing vibes anon. So I have to approach women in a more intellectual way than model myself to them.
>>
Like I get the appeal of your banter, but it feels like you are mocking me for struggling. It is like yelling at a homeless man struggling to go get a job.

I hate "funny wholesome" banter like this. It's so pathetic. Looks like AI emulating two redditors flirting while following AI safety protocols. Seriously, who the fuck talks like this? I cannot understate how cringe this wholesome chungus shit is. This bitch likely doesn't even get wet anymore, her sexuality is gone, and you're a pathetic fucking beta loser.

>I have enough saved that I don't need to work, but I don't have enough that I can go spend frivolously on expensive shit
Does this mean you have to live off canned beans and never travel? Do you plan on having kids?
Being like this you could get in a relationship with an older woman who has also given up on life, I guess.
>>
Dating women is pointless and you don't get anything out of it
>>
>>34556960
My budget allows for more than canned beans, but I don't go out to eat often. Maybe once a month, and nowhere expensive. I can afford to travel occasionally, like I'll be visiting my family this summer for a vacation. Or if someone died unexpectedly and I needed to fly to a funeral, I could do that no problem. But I generally don't like to travel anyway.
And "given up on life" is probably an accurate description. Though I'm not just 100% filling my time with this site and YT and porn. I'm working a lot on some artistic projects I always wanted to do, whether they'll generate any income or not idk though. I don't want children.
My ex said I had no ambition and didn't like that. My goal was always to eventually stop working, where as she wanted to work up the corporate ladder and expected me to do the same, or at least find something "big" outside of work to focus on, like a non-profit. Seems like a lot of effort.
I guess that's my question: are women going to look at me and immediately think "loser"? Or for the few that don't, are they even worth dating anyway? I guess I should start looking around, but I don't want to waste a bunch of time and money going on dates that will suck.
>>
>>34556965
what about the sex??
>>
>>34557052
Probably depends on where you live, I guess? In an urban center most everyone is going to be on the hustle grindset treadmill so it's not a surprise to see that with your ex, women in rural areas might be more open to a slower worry free life.
>>
Not to be a doomfag, but how hopeless is it to try and date women offline of a dating app? Dating apps are fucking awful, and I've tried like 5 of them with a few results, but it feels extremely inconsistent.
What do I need to do to meet more women?
>>
>>34557133
The only times ive met people were through mutual friends or out at social events like bars. I don't have that now or go out obv so if you dont have that you are probably going to have a difficult time meeting someone.
>>
I'm losing hope everyday. Is there a guide for autistic shutin retards on how to get a fucking girlfriend?
>>
What pictures do I need for my dating profile? I rarely take pictures of myself.
I like shit like anime, games, tabletop RPGs, baking, drawing, and going to the gym. I don’t know what I could take for pictures
