the effort percentage
there are these two guys who have joined our office. both are rich kids and been to US and UK respectively for elongated studies.
so today there was this debate which started from the right age of marriage. and this guy who has been in US for a long time said that 28-29 is too early an age to get married. anyways, the debate ensued and it reached a point where he stated that you can pick up girls anywhere from malls to shopping plazas to pubs and all. i said it is not possible in india to which he asked "have you ever tried?" and i was like, "ummm... mmm... ummm... mmm... mmmummm...", this is where i was stumped. then there was this wave of realisation. it is like i have never ever even tried to pick up a girl in a shopping store. then there were these points thrown about the success percentage and all but the fact remains that even if the %age is meager 5% and you try 2 females per weekend, you land up with your 1st within 5 months which is great, looking at my fabulous track record at being single ;)
a short, balding guy that i am, i am sure it is not possible now but the point is no body is asking to go ask an aishwarya clone. and anyways the effort matters.

**he stated that you can pick up girls anywhere from malls to shopping plazas to pubs and all.
u can...but is that the kind of girl u want? the term 'pick up' is used for something other than a long-term r'ship that may lead to marriage.
U will find ur girl when u least expect it..so be patient. Dun listen to guys who have been to the US/UK/AUS and try to boast their good-4-nuttin experiences with 'pick-ups' cos Im sure thats not wut u want.

duhh burfy u didnt u'stand my comment well then.
**but u said it up-front "u can"
I did..but I said U CAN 'PICK UP' girls in places like that...not find a partner for marriage. There's a BIG difference!
**there seems to be lot of contradictory thoughts in ur comment...
point them out please :)
**u sound prejudiced as well
LOL prejudiced? How?

When a guy says I picked up 10 gals, divide that by 10. when a gal says she saw 2 men, multiply that by 10 !! :)

On the other hand if you ask 20 girls out per weekend, a date may come sooner :)
But seriously, it's not easy to pick girls from malls. Not even in the US. I think the best chance one has is in parties where you can "dazzle them with your personality"
By Twisted DNA, at July 11, 2006 12:22 PM
kesh - suicide? why?
saby - dazzle, lol
By burf, at July 11, 2006 1:07 PM
