Get a Haircut - Unless you are an Italian model or a porn star, Long hair is out. On most guys its unattractive, almost always greasy, and usually badly styled. Very few girls prefer long hair on guys (I'm sure many can tolerate it, but why risk it). You might be the exception to this rule, but strongly consider whether you in fact are - Many guys go through a long hair phase around age 17-19, very VERY few people in their mid 20s look back and think it looked good.


Girls dig my curly hair :cool:

Its great advise really, but its moulding a lonley guy into somebody who would be more attractive to people.

too be honest, if your a lad who likes wearing black clothes with wolves on them, having jesus hair and shaving badly if at all, and smells like your own mouth in the morning, then be who you want to be, im sure you will find a girl who is like the female version of yourself, including the facial hair.... :smile:
Useless like every other piece of dating advice. You can quite easily known and practice all these things and fail miserably. Theory is no substitute for real practice.

Men is already plural so I'm pretty sure it should be men's, not mens' as I think you are suggesting.


I was thinking of the very construction and order of the words, not punctuation; although it should say "Mens'", or "Man's".

Of course the idea of completely manufacturing what you look like and how you behave is totally healthy.

I think the work that you put into this is great, but I am not sure ultimately it is great to make massive changes to your style in order to fulfill perceived female needs like this. You have to be true to yourself.

People are fickle, if they do not like you the way you are, then they are not for you. Cosmetic changes like this will merely delay the inevitable.


Yes, shaving, washing with soap and not wearing track suits is 'manufacturing what you look like'

Yeah that's true.
Should've stayed in the scene though man, Gothic girls are :sogood:
Seem to be quite dirty in my experience too :sexface:


Mentally and emotionally unstable and few stay in the scene past their early 20s though, so why bother?

Because some people are not looking for a lifelong relationship?

Wtf is wrong with black t-shirts? :confused:

Also, black shoes do go with some blue jeans, just not baggy pale jeans.


Probably right on the jeans, its a good general rule however.

Black tshirts because they are shapeless, dark and therefore generally look like you are trying to hide. There is a reason they are so incredibly popular with the world of warcraft / games workshop / fat nerd stereotype, and its the same reason you shouldnt wear them.

So... get rid of my glasses, cut my hair, and shave? How about GTFO because I have a girlfriend even with the glasses, long hair and pedo beard. OP is a ****ing moron, who apparently buys into stereotypes and thinks they know everything. And guys, just wear what you ****ing like, because if a bitch don't like you in shaggy clothes, she sure as hell won't like you in a suit.


You couldnt have written a more stupid post.

I can also find examples of fat BO-ridden losers who have a girlfriend, does this mean being in shape, clean and pleasant are bad strategies to getting a girlfriend? Obviously not.

1. Appearance - personal
Get a Haircut - Unless you are an Italian model or a porn star, Long hair is out. I have longish length dark hair


Shave, or at least trim - Neckbeards are disgusting, as are unkempt chin whisps or a wavy moustache. Most people look best cleanshaven or with a few days stubble. I rarely ever shave, because I can't be arsed

Wash, using soap!
I only ever use shower gel

Tops - Next, while hoodies are awesome to keep warm while doing exercise, or when slumming it after a massive night out, they aren't a top you should be wearing out socially (you wouldnt wear tracksuit bottoms out would you? Its the same concept). I always wear superdry, oneil, quicksilver and hollister hoody's out socially

Never wear waterproofs unless you are going hiking - people in North-face all-weather hiking jackets in the city look ridiclous. Use plain t-shirts underneath to layer up if needed for warmth. I wear my snowboarding jacket when it's cold

Trousers I generally avoid Combats and other 'sloppy' styles though. I only ever wear combats

So according to your advice I would be the most unnatractive, un-datable guy on this planet, yet I never have any problems with girls IRL :dontknow:...

Bro I know it must have taken you a while to write all that and I'm sure some people will appreciate it, but I think your advice can be taken with a pinch of salt because not all women fancy the same type of male, otherwise we would all be walking around looking exacly the same.


Typical generic "THERE ARE EXCEPTIONS SO ANY GENERALISATION IS COMPLETELY WORTHLESS" bull**** TSR post. There are tonnes of these in literally every thread....

Use your brain, the point is not that there aren't exceptions, there obviously are. Hitler, Stalin and Carrot Top have all had a girlfriend. Some women are attracted to fat smelly guys.

That doesnt in any way undermine a generalisation that applies to the vast majority of women.

I found yours pretty stupid actually.

I still stand by what I said, and what I did not say is that being in shape, clean, and pleasant are bad things. I said that things like glasses, clothes, and hair should be a choice that you make and not that others make for you. Of course nobody should stink of BO, when did I say otherwise? The glasses issue in particular always gets my back up, I will not piss around trying to get contacts in every day (though I do have some) because it might appeal to someone else. Sounds like primary school ****. Speccy four eyes is so childish.

*sigh* I have a feeling lots of people here are simply disagreeing because they have or do a few of the things that the OP has mentioned in his first post..
OP, don't become a councillor cos your advice sucks.

So you've never had a problem getting with a girl you like?

Maybe you should be the one writing internet guides lolz
In the sections on Appearance, it just sounds like your giving advice on how to appear in an interview for John Lewis. I grant you though, John Lewis do employ some good looking fellas.
