How To Pick up Girls, A Senryu

I swear it's true

Keep your loins in check 

Talk to her as an equal 

and you'll do just fine 

Author's Note

It's the talking to her as an equal part that screws guys up. She's not a Goddess, she's not stupid, she's not "one of the guys" and she sure as hell isn't five years old. So far as I'm concerned that's all there is to it.

Yeah, as an equal to what? Until I was informed, many years ago, that I wasn't talking to women right, I was confused. Still am to a point. I personally had not trouble picking up girls, or allowing them to pick me up. Happens both ways. Did back then, still does. We are constantly bombarded daily about how to "treat a woman." I guess you can tell by my comments it has worn a bit thin as far as I'm concerned.

I don't know what to tell you bro. I've been in a committed relationship for some time now and haven't done any field testing as of late. When I was single I never thought much about "game"
or "lines" or anything. If I saw a girl I wanted to talk to I just did. If she wasn't interested she let me know pretty quick. (This did happen quite a bit) If she was interested conversation seemed fairly easy. If I went out tonight would I pick someone up? Honestly, I have no idea. I might someone receptive, I might not. If I kept at it sooner or later I would. That's all I've ever done and I've been with some great women, some real losers too. I'm just glad I'm with the one I have now.
