Holy hell , if l was to ask out 100 women l'd get myself into enough shyt to last a lifetime and probably 99 gf's l didn't want.

But eh , put it this way , if he didn't get a gf out of that then there's no hope and l hope he likes the single life.

The bottom line is that if you want dates, you need to talk to, interact with and ask women out. If you don’t, then you might not get any dates. I asked out 3 women over a 4 year span at one point. Guess how many dates I got in those 4 years? None. When I started asking women out, I got dates.

It would at least get someone over their 'issues' with asking women out, so even if they didn't emerge from the experience with a GF, at least they have gone through emersion therapy regarding one of the major hurdles that hold men back from getting a date - asking for a date. A+

It's just the same as women being told they need to "kiss a lot of frogs". You have to not be afraid and put yourself out there... That simple, nothing more.

Mine were more like, "lets KEEP havin' a drink for a few yrs til we can't drink no more & thus can end the relationship". (or until the bar throws us out). Whichever comes 1st.

Who knows. If you started asking a girl a day it could be the first or it could be the thousandth, or any number in between.

It's bull. I used to read this thing that would say, "every no gets you one step closer to a yes." As if there is a limit on nos. Like you go up to a woman ask her out, she says no, and you go, "you can't say no, I've gotten 50 nos already." Then she goes, "damn, alright, I'm available Saturday Night."
