kaylan Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 (edited) Im not surprised. Women lol Oh boy, with the kind of videos you see online regarding gold/fame diggers, it makes me wonder how many ladies wouldnt jump ship if some well-to-do bloke started pitching woo lol. Yes, I said pitching woo xD Edited June 28, 2014 by kaylan
Snakechammah Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 Oh god no. That won't be me, no lol. But thanks for the entertainment! Even if Lauri Ylönen himself were to walk up to me, I'd reject him. And he's supposedly my celebrity crush. I think there are different levels of attraction. The super loyal ones would scream NO from the get-go, doesn't matter if it's Neymar or Bieber (yucks) or whoever the dream catch is. You want who you want, and right now, I am utterly obsessed about my guy. But just out of curiosity, from a guy's perspective, would you really want to date a chick who gives her number so easily to any 'celebrity' - if you were the celebrity?
leavesonautumn Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 Lol, ~~women~~ so silly. Because he didn't talk to like quadruple the amount of women that were actually filmed and 85% of them gave him their number to make him go away in fear of being harassed. Fake youtube video is fake 1
Author kaylan Posted June 28, 2014 Author Posted June 28, 2014 (edited) You should see the mall video where this guy has an entourage of security and acts like he's famous. The girls have no idea who the guy is, but still wanna take pictures with him and talk. However, there are some guys getting their photo opps too. Oh god no. That won't be me, no lol.

acrosstheuniverse Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 That's so weird! Who would want their photo with a celebrity they'd never heard of? I wouldn't even want mine with the most famous ones (Kardashian, Beyonce, film stars etc) because I don't really have much interest in the stuff they do. Sounds like the opposite of when I've bumped into really obscure musicians nobody has ever heard of who are in bands I've adored for years and years, there's me rushing up in a babble of 'OMGILOVEYOURMUSICI'VEBEENLISTENINGTOYOUFORSEVENYEARSANDHAVEYOURBANDTATTOOEDONMYARMANDWROTEMYDISSERTATIONABOUTYOURFOURTHALBUM' etc. while everyone else just watches on like, who the hell is that? lol. Footballer would be an instant no from me I'm afraid. Can't stand the game.
Trimmer Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 If I pretend to be a famous footballer...will my dating success increase? What's your definition of success? If you were able to attract more potential dates, all by itself, would you consider that a "success?" Because there's virtually NO WAY that you would be successful with any ongoing relationship, because you'd obviously be found out eventually. So if she had any dignity, she'd dump you for a substantial lie, and if she didn't have that level of dignity, and was superficial and shallow instead, then she'd dump you because you weren't a footballer. Lose-lose.
MissBee Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 The makers of these videos clearly only film the women who responded in the way they wanted and not those who didn't. Reminded me of a video of some women who decided to get into a Ferrari or some other car with a man they didn't know and some male "geniuses" thinking it proved women as a whole were gold diggers...but thankfully since I'm a researcher and am taught to ask questions about the validity of studies, I pointed out that clearly for the purposes of entertainment and the video they only edited and produced the final piece showing the women who did agree....they did NOT show the women who did not agree, as that's not entertainment. And for all we know, they showed the 6 women who agreed, and didn't show the 40 who didn't. Same here...this proves nothing besides the fact that SOME women are giddy headed and are smitten by such things but for a REAL look, they should actually from start to finish without editing show how many women, at different places they try this with and see how many in fact care or respond...just showing those who did respond without showing those who did not or the full spectrum of how many were asked/exposed and how many responded favorably is pointless. 1
leavesonautumn Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 So, what you're telling me is that men wouldn't fall for the same thing if it was a woman doing it? Come on guys. 2
Elle1975 Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 these days I wonder where all the good gals are at =PHanging with the good guys. 2

GemmaUK Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 Ha! That just reminded me of a TV show I saw a bit of recently. It was called I Wanna Marry Harry and they had a guy pretending to be Prince Harry. There was a group of girls who got to spend time with the guy. It was so cringe-worthy! They all appeared to be convinced he was the real deal!
Trimmer Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 So, what you're telling me is that men wouldn't fall for the same thing if it was a woman doing it? Come on guys. What I'm saying is that nobody would fall for such a lie long-term. So if you just want to get a first date and create a situation that is bound to crash and burn at some point, then go ahead and willfully misrepresent yourself. It will either crash by the other person having some dignity and dumping you (soon) for the character flaw of lying, or it will crash by the other person being shallow, and dumping you because they really needed the lie to be true.
leavesonautumn Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 I'm not really sure how your comment has any relation to mine? Sure, you may have been talking long-term but I wasn't. My point was based on the video itself and not a relationship?
preraph Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 It's true anyone famous will get more women, but I have to add here that anyone who was as bold and going up to so many women as this guy was and being friendly and asking them to parties and stuff would probably have a lot of success as long as he wasn't a completely creepy looking dude. I think most of that was about him just having the nerve to approach all of them and a plan to ask them to do something. Because most of those women didn't really look like golddigger types.
Trimmer Posted June 29, 2014 Posted June 29, 2014 I'm not really sure how your comment has any relation to mine? I guess it doesn't. I was trying to stay on-topic which was about whether the OP's dating success would increase (which implies "long term" to me...) but I realize this point wasn't directly related to your comment. Sorry.
ktya Posted June 29, 2014 Posted June 29, 2014 Reminds me of a funny story. My buddy was in town hadnt seen him in a long time. I was living with my former fiancee at the time and her friend was over staying for the weekend. My buddy kept hitting on my fiancees friend. It was annoying my fiancee and kind of annoying me. So i took him out to the mall i had to buy a backpack. We bought the backpack and i brought him to a bar to kill more time. The DJ was cute and i chatted her up so i could get him to ask her out. He didnt have the balls (hes one of those guys that cant be the spear, he always ends up jamming on his friends love interests because hes no good at the initial icebreaking, i almost smashed him a few times). So i set him up. Started making comments about how i was his agent and he loved this place because nobody recognized him. They started inquiring i said he was a famous singer with the manchester opera, that he couldnt go two foot in europe without people stopping and asking for his autograph. Eventually everyone in the bar was on about this famous guy. He kept screwing up the story and trying to say he played soccer with manchester united, which i thought was too well known because he could end up getting busted in the tale. But in the end, despite the stories crossing the DJ chick actually came up to him and gave him her number. Knob never called her. But i called him out on it in front of my fiancees friend and he stopped with the hitting on her. Mission accomplished.
Tressugar Posted June 29, 2014 Posted June 29, 2014 I've had my pic taken with a famous football player and a famous boxer. I didn't ask. No names will be mentioned. Celebrities are too arrogant!
