What so many guys don’t seem to understand is that the best pickup line is not a pickup line. Next time you see a beautiful woman who you would like to get to know, stop for a moment and look at her. What’s special about her (tits and ass aside)? Does she have beautiful hair? Nice eyes? Cool shoes? Tell her so.

Go up and say, “Your hair is fantastic, I love the cut.” If she responds well, then you’ve got your opening. Keep it real. Say, “My name is John, what’s yours?”

She says, “Corey.” Great, now you’re in a conversation.

If you’re in a situation where there’s time to talk, like at a party for example, then just go from there. If not, then say something like, “I’d like to get to you know you better. How about we meet for a cup of coffee sometime?” And ask for her number. Or, if you like, give her yours. If she’s interested enough she will call, I guarantee it.

It’s that simple. If you want to meet a woman, be sincere and be confident.

I was once in line at a big record store in SF. The young woman at the register was new and was being taught by another employee. Her name tag said “Sarah”. She was so beautiful, I fell in love at first sight. When I got to the front of the line, I tuned out the senior employee and all the people behind me in line. I focused only on Sarah and I said, “You are so beautiful. Your eyes are amazing, they are like oceans of blue.” What happened next was amazing, and I am not making this up. Sarah almost swooned. She had to hold on to the edge of the counter to keep from falling.

I didn’t ask for her number. I gave her my card, paid for my CD, and left. The next day, Sarah called and we went on a date. When I asked her why she decided to call me, she said, “I wanted to see what kind of man would do something like that.”

Get it? She wanted to see what kind of guy would be confident enough to put himself out there like that with everyone watching. That’s what turns women on. Not arrogance, but confidence and sincerity.

What happened with Sarah? That first date was incredible and ended up with the two of us at my place kissing. We saw each other for a few months after that. It didn’t work out in the end, but it was great while it lasted.

That’s how it’s done. This kind of thing has worked for me over and over. My friends say, “Dude, you are the mac daddy, teach me your lines.” But I don’t have a line, that’s the whole point.

Once when I was a bike messenger in San Francisco I was riding down the street and I saw a stunningly beautiful black woman walking on the sidewalk. I pulled over and said, “Hi, how are you?” She said “fine”. I said, “Are you doing anything for dinner tonight?” Just like that. She said, “Why do you want to know?” I said, “Because if not, I would love to take you to dinner. Listen, I have to run, but here’s my card. Give me a call if you’re interested.” And I took off.

Later that evening my phone rang, and it was her. We talked, went on a date to Golden Gate Park, and that amazingly beautiful woman became my next girlfriend. Oh, it turns out that she didn’t call me blind. She stopped another messenger on the street, showed him my card and asked if he knew me. The other messenger – lucky! – was a friend of mine and said, “Yeah, he’s a cool dude. Really nice guy.” So she called me.

And you know what, she never could get over the way we met. She used to say, “I can’t believe you just pulled up and asked me what I was doing for dinner.”

On the other hand, if you want to be slapped, laughed at or insulted, go up to a woman and say, “I know its not Christmas, but Santa’s lap is always ready.”

1. Hapkido

Hapkido is a Korean martial art that is derived from Japanese Jujitsu. It is a joint locking art – meaning that it specializes in manipulating, locking up and breaking the attacker’s wrists, elbows, shoulders, knees, etc. It also has an extensive throwing and striking repertoire. It’s the most thorough and comprehensive martial art I have ever seen.

2. Japanese Jujitsu

There are many styles of Japanese Jujitsu, including Danzan Ryu and Wally Jay’s Small Circle Jujitsu. But I’m thinking in particular of the highly refined styles of Hakko-Ryu and Kokodo Jujitsu. These are pain compliance styles, dealing with extremely painful joint locks and pressure point strikes. Styles like this can be tedious to learn and take many, many years to master. But here’s the thing: in the hands of an expert, they look like magic. Imagine someone grabs your shirt, shoulder or lapel. You lay your hand on top of his, and with no further contact you drop him down onto the ground, face down, shrieking in agony. Sound impossible? It’s not. It’s the coolness of Jujitsu.

3. Judo

Again, a nearly magical Japanese martial art. By learning to sense the energy of your opponent’s movement and harmonize with it, and by learning principles of leverage, you can flip a guy over your hip or shoulder, toss him through the air, and dump him on his head. Great stuff.

4. Silat

Here we’re breaking ranks a bit. The previous arts were all East Asian, but now we’re moving south, to Malaysia and the islands of Indonesia, where we find the most brutal and devastating martial arts ever created: Pencak Silat, or Silat for short. There are hundreds of styles of Silat, but all are viciously efficient. They are close-quarter arts, utilizing elbow strikes, knee strikes, head manipulation (whiplash), and low-line kicks to utterly destroy the enemy. They also focus heavily on blade work, including knife fighting, machete and sword. If you’re looking to fight off predators in the harsh urban environment, you can’t go wrong with the super-cool and super deadly art.

10. Free Fun – Painting in the Woods

“Never let lack of money interfere with having fun.” ~Unknown

Back when we were young, we may have asked our parents for money to do things, but more often than not, we found creative ways to have fun without spending a dime.

Here’s an idea: get out into the woods, tack a canvas up between two trees, and paint. Make sure to put a tarp on the ground so you don’t drip any paint on the forest floor. Don’t worry about being perfect. Just let your hand flow and paint what you see. You’ll get fresh air, hear forest sounds, and create something fun.
