The Dudeism Forum

recently i've been having horrible luck in the lady department... and by recently i meen for the past year and a half now. i keep reminding myself "ups and downs, strikes and gutters dude" but it seems that i've been stuck in the gutters for a bit. i try to look to The Dude for some wisdom on the ladies, but i don't see alot on that subject. could anyone help so i can get out of this rut?

Well, first of all, the dude doesn't have an ex. Also, dude, I don't think a bowling alley is a place to pick up chicks.
Maybe you shouldn't focus to much on the Lady's. Most of the time you bump right into them when you're not busy with it!
If you meet one, don't rush it man, take it easy! Act really interrested. Don't rush it, man. Be secure! Be a MAN!

Good advice there FA.  Was gonna say something similar myself!

Yeah, you just can't force things, nor worry about them happening.  I'm sure you can find your life flowing smoothly and before you know it, a lady comes along and makes a few waves out of the blue, and you just ride those waves, don't try splashing around in a panic, just ride them out.  Cool and smooth.

The best advice I can give is to simply stop looking.  When you're on the prowl, you're mind isn't limber, it's sharp and rigid and good for nothing but solving crosswords.  Just let that vision go and something will wander into your peripheral vision when you least expect it.  You meet someone, you'll talk casually, find out what you have in common, make a connection, impress her with your laid-back and cool exterior, along with your enlightened sense of the world... and ey!

Trust me, when I stopped looking, I found my soul mate, working right along side me in the same building for four years, never even spoken before.  Most people meet by chance, or in the case of my parents, re-meet by chance "hey, didn't we used to go to school together?".  My folks bumped into each other in a train carriage some years after school, never really having spoken before, and found they were the perfect match, more than 30 years on and still going strong, and with a little hairy duder to their name.

Happiness is a state of mind, with or without a woman, and finding a woman is the most natural thing in the world.

Don't sweat it, don't force it, just realise it when it turns up and go with it.
Until then, have yourself another oat soda and park yourself on a lane.  You never know when you might see a single female bowler on the adjoining lane, do you?

Rev. Ed C

Whats all this blather?

Go to a bar, thats where it gets done. And dress appropriately, wear beer goggles.

Quotewear beer goggles.

Fucking A man...

I think what Rev. Ed C is trying to say is "abide".
Am I wrong?

Abide is the way.

Actually you can scare them off by being too eager! You know too keen.

You know the scene:

"Yes i completely agree with everything you just said and think your the most wonderful person on the planet can we have sex now?"

Just abide, as said before just when you are least looking for someone you'll turn round and there they will be.

Well, sure, Abide is the message, but I think our friend was looking for some more cohesive advice.  Abide is a true sentiment, but a bit vague.

I may be a bit wordy at times, but I do like to get down to the nub of the matter.  Never let it be said I'm not a good man, or thorough!

Ed, no offence meant.

Just seemed a lot of words in your bit. 

Can you abide all my well-meaning, un-nihilistic words?

Want some girly help? If you're looking to get inside the mind of girl dudes, there's a series in britain, which I think has also been released in the states under more, erm, polite names,
called the Georgia Nicolson series. The first one in america is called Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging,
or maybe 'kissing', idk.
Well now you now exactly how we think.
Secondly, just be friendly, keep an eye out, and don't let your standards drop, even if it takes forever. Consider if there's anything you do that seems to be putting off the ladies?

Holy fuck man... forget it. I am going to do you a big favor and tell you the secret of happyness ever after man...


MASTERBATION


Yup... my X really made me see the fucking light on this shit man and I am fucking telling you its much much cheaper and more peacefull in the end.

Now if you want a kid, that is diffrent, a little wine / chicken and a bang is fine... BUT!... Dont buy the fucking cow if you can drink the milk.... trust me on this. Look for the Maudes out there, they could be the best chics out there.

It so fucking odd how I have found in my old age the guys without, wanting one/in and the ones with one, trying to figure out how the fuck to get out.

If this does not work for you then just look for the Bunnys out there. just do not over do it at the instabank machines man as it could get as expensive as buying a cow in the first place.

and just remember the Dude knows all of this as... the Dude still jerks off manualy
