SmileFace Posted December 19, 2012 Posted December 19, 2012 A little exaggerated?...lol Whatevs, I will stay out of your business that you post on a public forum.
c57dood Posted December 19, 2012 Posted December 19, 2012 You're crazy dude. I'm 5'11 & weigh 145. I'm thin but I like it. Never had a problem with dating and being slender. Besides, I like short thick women anyway, to me they have a more defined womanly figure. Plus, they just FEEL better to hug and touch among other things. I'd take a thick chick over a stick anyday, and if that makes me a chubby chaser, oh well! 2
ScreamingTrees Posted December 19, 2012 Posted December 19, 2012 I'm slightly shorter than OP and weight peanuts. I'm also quite skinny. I guess I should just go crawl under a rock and die. No thank you.. I'm happy being healthy. People making comments are often jealous, secure people wouldn't have to put others down if they truly felt they were worse off than themselves..
KungFuJoe Posted December 19, 2012 Posted December 19, 2012 Instead of worrying about what women like why don't you start worrying about how YOU want to look? You obviously think you're skinny. You think any amount of replies on this thread is going to change the way you think? HELL NO. Get a gym membership, hit the weights, put on 10lbs of muscle. It's not just good for attracting women, it's good for your health. Everybody on the planet should work out, eat right, stay fit. 1
CptObvious Posted December 19, 2012 Posted December 19, 2012 listen scrawny, all you gotta do is lift. You ain't gotta eat 15 steaks and curl for 12 hours a day. I only lift every other day for about an hour and my meals take less than 10 minutes to prepare. It's not going to be "a life changing process that literally will have to consume my life to accomplish" so man up. I don't care if you're tired or unmotivated after work. I don't care if you're too cheap to get the right nutrition. Yes, being skinny is just as bad as being disgustingly overweight. So instead of paying a guy with too much eyeliner on to punch a hole in your ear you should be paying for a gym membership and all the supplements you think you need.
CptObvious Posted December 19, 2012 Posted December 19, 2012 Hard to say. Depends how your body is shaped. When I try to bulk up--as in, working out and consuming more calories because my body now demands I need more fuel to burn, my face gets round, and it doesn't look good round. When I stay skinny. my chin is sharp, and well defined, and everything just looks better. Body type is only but one preference, if you have a killer personality, you can bypass that. lean gains brah don't have to jack up your body fat if you don't want to
sweetkiwi Posted December 19, 2012 Posted December 19, 2012 I looked at your profile. You're not skinny. Your profile comes off as insecure. And earings on guys IMO are lame. Unless they're plugs. Skinny guys like me. And i must like them too or half my exs wouldn't have been skinny. Way skinner than you in fact. And they were all self conscious about it too. I am short. 5ft 1. And curvy, big butt big boobs. Never bothered anyone, least of all me. Work with what you got If you won't change it.
phineas Posted December 19, 2012 Posted December 19, 2012 here you go: OKBlueJay Tonawanda New York singles, Tonawanda New York women Fuaaarkk! dude, i'm in Lockport. Small world. Also, everyone is fat in Buffalo. LOL! so yeah, it's easy to score with overweight women because their so damn aggressive around here. I'm 5'8". After my first cut I was 158 lbs, carb depleted & still had about 5-10lbs to drop in order to get a 6-pack & I looked bigger than you. After my muscles swelled up from eating carbs again I jumped to 168 in a week & while I had no 6-pack I looked pretty damn good. I suggest hitting the weights & putting on some muscle. Since you will be just starting out you'll get those newbie gains and as long as you keep the excess cals to min you won't gain a lot of fat.
Els Posted December 19, 2012 Posted December 19, 2012 I personally don't think 150 lbs at 5'9" is 'extremely skinny' to the point that it would be a strong deterrent to most women. That being said, if you feel that having more muscles would help your appearance, and you don't feel your current one is working for you with the women whom you're interested in, I don't see why not go for it. "Trying to bulk up is a life changing process that literally will have to consume my life to accomplish" is really not true for most guys who are aiming to put on a little muscle. If you're aiming to look like The Rock, sure, but I gather that isn't really what you're aiming for. Some male posters here (ThaWholigan, tman999, brahmabull, kaylan, etc) bodybuild, to my knowledge, and they certainly are not 'consuming their lives' to accomplish it. Talk to them about the best ways to go about it.
phineas Posted December 19, 2012 Posted December 19, 2012 Dude it is your area. All the decent looking chicks in that area has kids and you are left with the others,lol. That is kind of a joke but upstate NY is such a ****ed up place to date. Hush Castle - you are not that far upstate. It's Western NY. The sad thing is these types of women make up the majority of available women at my age. I don't know why but just crossing the border into canada = much hotter & higher quality women. It's like a whole different country. Anyway - it is you. Like you intial response stated you may be cocky or even come across as a jerk. You haven't been able to figure out how to pick up women but more on how to pick up insecure women who coincidentally may be fat. Even stop banging fat chicks -you can't really only complain about picking them up. I see no reason why you would have a problem with your attraction. It isn't you weight since you aren't skinny. However bulking up may help you attract more girls. I've had overweight women I just met sitting next to me at the bar just put their hand on my inner thigh without me even touching them! OP has gotten his experience in. Now it's time to be more selective & work on the women he really wants. If he can find them.

Talk to them about the best ways to go about it.I agree. I was 5'10" and 150 lbs. when I graduated college, and I never thought of myself as 'skinny' or had anyone call me anything but normal. And I never had any problem attracting lots of really beautiful women. In other words, it's not your height or your weight that's the problem, so gaining weight or bulking up is not going to make a single bit of difference in the women you attract. Figure out what it is that's preventing you from attracting the women you want and work on that, because it is NOT your weight.

Any man in a size 32 or smaller pants is called "skinny" around here & it isn't in a good way. People view it as unhealthy & it really is a total mind-frack to those who arn't body builder types. Hell, unless i'm wearing a form fitting shirt that shows off my muscles people call me skinny & look at me like endangering my health by trying to loose the last of the fat on my mid-section & my 32's are just a little loose on me.
ascendotum Posted December 19, 2012 Posted December 19, 2012 I don't know why but just crossing the border into canada = much hotter & higher quality women. It's like a whole different country. Why is this? Is diet that different? Its colder their so I thought they would be indoors more huddled around the fire drinking rum. I've had overweight women I just met sitting next to me at the bar just put their hand on my inner thigh without me even touching them! That's what you call being proactive. That's a good solid indicator of interest. lol At one of the places I work at there is a bunch of them there. With a few champers they are bawdy as. They come of as older version of ladettes. Its a little tricky to deflect come-ons as they are not subtle. OP has gotten his experience in. Now it's time to be more selective & work on the women he really wants. If he can find them.Agree, there's no monkey on his back anymore, he can focus on himself. Plenty of time he;s still young.

My mother was terrified that was my faith when I moved up here, lol. However I ended up losing weight when moving here - nothing like being the cream of the crop, lol jk - my dating life sucks..lol. I am above average weight in my home town, which is the city - however upstate I am smaller than most of the average size girls. Got to love it.

Also, stop sleeping with every "vapid" girl who crosses your path. 30 women in 4 years?! Whoa! Slow down there, little fellow. That's probably why you're feeling dissatisfied. If you want something meaningful, start picking the right girls. 1
mesmerized Posted December 19, 2012 Posted December 19, 2012 I doubt it's your skinniness...A lot of women don't mind skinny men. If you were overweight, that's be a different story. 1
KungFuJoe Posted December 19, 2012 Posted December 19, 2012 Yeah better to be skinny than fat. But best to be lean and fit. I'm 6'2", 195lbs and Im working on another 5lbs of muscle. I got up to 215 last year but did a dirty bulk, then lost it all and am trying to go clean now. Which sucks. I listen to people talk about how hard it is to diet and not eat as much. I just wanna laugh. I would LOVE if all I had to do was just eat less. I have to eat enough, the right kinds of food, and still work out on a regular basis. /rant
Content Posted December 19, 2012 Posted December 19, 2012 I know tons of women who are into lean or skinny dudes The idea all women like really muscular guys is not true

I just wanna laugh. I would LOVE if all I had to do was just eat less. I have to eat enough, the right kinds of food, and still work out on a regular basis. /rant Hahah, both difficult in their own ways IMO. 'Dieting' is easier for men than it is for women in general because not only do you get to eat a whole lot more due to having an intrinsically higher BMR (the average man on a diet can still consume up to 150% of my daily calorie limit), but you also don't have hormonally-induced cravings. You still need to work out if you're dieting to look good, because dieting in itself doesn't produce a toned appearance and you'll lose fat from the wrong places. On the other hand, I've observed male bodybuilders and it takes a whole lot of stamina and diligence to go above and beyond the average workout to bulk up on the muscles, and to consume sufficient protein in the right forms. Women bodybuilders do this as well, of course, but most women don't bodybuild or need to.
AD1980 Posted December 19, 2012 Posted December 19, 2012 Looking more feminine will not make you more attractive to women. really? look at some of the men in hollywood women fawn over that are ultra feminine
FitChick Posted December 19, 2012 Posted December 19, 2012 5'9" at 150 lbs. may look thin to you but only because everyone else is so fat. What are your chest and waist measurements?
Lonely Ronin Posted December 19, 2012 Posted December 19, 2012 Also, stop sleeping with every "vapid" girl who crosses your path. 30 women in 4 years?! Whoa! Slow down there, little fellow. That's probably why you're feeling dissatisfied. If you want something meaningful, start picking the right girls. You beat me to it Iris. Are you looking for an STD or something man? At the rate you are going, you could get rejected by a woman you really if your # keeps growing at this rate. 1
rhymes Posted December 19, 2012 Posted December 19, 2012 OP - I'm 6'1 and about 165 lbs, definitely been skinny my whole life and have heard every comment under the sun about it. And yes, at times I do feel like it's a double standard that people will "call you out" for being skinny, yet saying something to someone who is overweight is totally taboo. Anyway on that note, like most people have alluded to, it's only one factor in your make up. I'm sure some women have been put off by me not being a physical monster, but if that's the case, they're not the type of girl I want to date anyway. I'd say I'm far more successful than my friends who are in better shape, fitter, or more"ripped" - and that's because personality, humour, and knowing how to talk to women is so much more important. I'd say I have a lot of inner game and for me, that's all I can really focus on because there's only so much I can change physically. Like someone else mentioned, it doesn't need to be a life changing experience to bulk up but it does require some time. I go to the gym for a short but intense lift almost every other day for about 30-45 minutes tops. I eat high calorie foods like almonds, peanut butter, raisins and take protein at night. I'll never become Arnie, but even adding 5-10 lbs will make you feel and look a lot better. There's plenty of fish in the sea, but it never hurts to add a few pounds, but weight in my experience has never been a hinderance and shouldn't be for you either.

If you want something meaningful, start picking the right girls. 30 in four years is not a lot. If you average it out, it's about 7 a year, or less than one girl a month. This is why if a girl asks for my number I don't give it. 1
Lonely Ronin Posted December 19, 2012 Posted December 19, 2012 30 in four years is not a lot. If you average it out, it's about 7 a year, or less than one girl a month. Dude that's a big number, specially for someone of his age. If he wants to get into a serious relationship at some point, he is going to be judged by the number if it keeps growing at this rate. The judgments aren't going to be positive ones either.
