Anyone still alive for relationships?

Personally, I think friendship is a better way to facilitate actually meeting people on this site who do live farther off. Since it's easier to keep a friendship going than a relationship of a more romantic nature, you have more time to organize a long term plan. Sad as it is. And that sounds cool, but I might have jury duty, so who knows.

Pff, relationships are so mainstream. Everyone except me has one these days.

Some parts of this site is poorly managed but there is still a possibility for a relationship regardless. Read through posts, profiles and interact with those of interests.

suddenly my topic pops like a baloon.. hmm.. anyway, all relationships now a days are kinda hard to get. most guys ''players'' have it easy, they can approach a girl easier then others. and we are left in the dust xD

Relationships may seem difficult but it's not rocket science. As cliché this may be, if you maintain a positive mindset and interact, it may happen. Never know until you try. It can be draining so take breaks time to time.

I wouldn't say they have it easier, but for a lot of girls who are highly attractive, think of it from their shoes. Since most guys are too nervous to approach you, and the only ones that do are either people who have experience playing the field, or psychopaths with no emotion whatsoever, then your options are kinda limited, aren't they? So of course they do better, if picking up a woman for a night or a few weeks is your goal. The more time you spend getting better at the pick up phase however, the less time you can spend learning some of the more substantial social skills you need to keep a relationship together. And I know a few friends who were pick up artists who admit to me that they wish they could keep a girl around as long as guys like me and some of my other friends. Although to me, I never really have much of a problem approaching a woman. I just don't know how to keep a conversation going with small talk, and most of the things that interest me are rather... More oriented towards deeper conversations. "Hey, guuuurl! I love the braid in ur hair! It reminds me of how woman in the middle ages would braid their hair in order to show their marital status. Woman who were unmarried tend to keep their hair loose. That's part of the reason they refer to marriage as "Tying the knot", http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c59/Rubberpenguin/Gif%20Vault/WTF/sloth-ey-yo-girl-why-u-runnin.jpg "I was just getting to the interesting stuff with elves and fairies, and whatnot!" This by the way is why you don't specialize too much into one category, be it picking up girls, or whatever the hell it is I do.

I don't have much of an issue with approaching a woman until I see them in a romantic way. Its easy for me to become friends with people. In terms of small talk, eh. The hardest part of small talk is breaking the ice, which is the awkward moment both sides experience. Sometimes the easiest way to break the awkward moment, is to recognize it.
