    “Hello ${Woman’s Name}. Would you like to join me for dinner on ${Select free date} at ${Restaurant with 3 or 4 dollar signs for price on Yelp}? I also have a second ticket for ${Popular sold out show at theater} if you’d like to join me?”

    Take a shower and dress nicely first, before asking and before the date. Try just doing it everyday. Pay for everything, never look at prices for more than a second, if at all. In this way, you will communicate that you have disposable income and are willing and able to consider another person’s happiness, if even momentarily, which will put you far ahead of most men in the running.

      Ok see, THAT makes sense.

      Also helps that I don’t look at prices anyway(not that that behavior is a good thing, I still need to budget for disposable income) unless something looks stupid, like a $200 steak (There is a place here with a $70 steak, I’m tempted to try it one day).

        Yeah I would definitely not talk like that to anyone you’re interested in. You have all the subtlety of a bull in a china shop. Don’t be this guy

          I didn’t interpret what he said to be a script I should use. It was more of “don’t be afraid of actually using disposable income.”

            how the hell would I say I make $150k/yr

            There is a place here with a $70 steak, I’m tempted to try it one day

            That’s a good point, but it’s still 2.5x the median income for the area I live.

            These are red flags that will ruin your chances and if you are acting differently towards women, stop acting and just stop trying to humble brag about your income. It’s a lot easier to not try to trick people

              Ok so yours actually made me re read the post because I was seriously concerned people were throwing all this shit around.

              I may have misread the post.
