Well there's years we no longer have goats so I have none to trade but a few beers and a few minutes before closing time and she'd look like a swimsuit model. Back in the day I always told my running buddies to be nice to the ugly ones. They go back to their pretty friends and talk you up. Women are envious of one another (as are men) so that sets the trap.
That sounds like a formula for getting Ugly Friends, not Hot Babes. If you are simply nice and courteous to Ugly Friend in a non committal way there is no reason for her to talk about you at all to Hot Babe. If you pursue any kind of relationship with Ugly Friend thinking she will "talk you up" to Hot Babe you are sadly mistaken. She will talk about you to Hot Babe alright. That is because its likely that Ugly Friend has developed a crush on you. Even if Hot Babe had been mildly attracted to you she is not going to steal you away from her Ugly Friend. She doesn't have to. She is Hot Babe. There are lots of other guys for her to choose from. Not so for Ugly Friend. Hot Babe may even be happy for Ugly Friend. Never ever have sex with Ugly Friend. As a horny guy you might be tempted. Don't even do anything with Ugly Friend that could be considered a date by Ugly Friend. Even something as innocent as an after work or after school drink might be considered a "date." This is the kiss of death for you with Hot Babe. Your manly status will drop like a rock with Hot Babe. She will no longer consider you a potential date/sex partner/boyfriend. You are now Guy Who Dates Ugly Women. Good enough for her Ugly Friend but certainly not for Hot Babe. Just when you thought you would get called up from Triple AAA to the Big Leagues you are suddenly demoted to Low A. If getting together somehow with Ugly Friend is unavoidable try to make it a group setting. You might even consider trying to set up Ugly Friend with your Socially Awkward Nerdy Buddy. This too has pitfalls that will come back to bite you in the ass. Socially Awkward Nerdy Buddy doesn't thing of himself as an Awkward Nerdy Guy. He wants to date Hot Babes too but he has low enough standards and is desperate enough that he will date Ugly Friend. So you thing you have made points with both Ugly Friend and Hot Babe. At first it might seem like it but you just know that Awkward Nerdy Buddy is going to bang Ugly Friend and then never call her again. Sure, he will get the blame as a Callous Bastard by Ugly Friend and Hot Babe but there is plenty of blame to go around. Women have a bottomless reservoir of blame to heap upon you for things you didn't even know you did wrong. When this happens all you can do is take the side of Ugly Friend and agree with her and Hot Babe what a Bastard that Awkward Nerdy Friend is. Turn on him like a barracuda and you may able to salvage something. Just don't let on that you are meeting Awkward Nerdy Friend for golf later in the afternoon. Your best bet is to be seen by Hot Babes in the company of woman of equal or greater hotness they they are. They will think "He doesn't look like much but she must see something in him" and the Hot Babes being curious will want to find out for themselves. So you are probably asking yourself "Where am I going to get the Really Smoking Hot Babe to be seen with by Hot Babes? A really high class hooker with enough class to not be seen as a hooker costs way too much." Well, you probably have a Really Smoking Hot Babe friend. Probably a woman you wanted so badly when you met her that your loins ached but after a few dates you were seen as being too over eager and she just "wanted to be friends." She demoted you to her "Friend Zone." Once that happens you are dead. Even Superman couldn't break out of the Friend Zone. But if you have stayed friends with Really Smoking Hot Babe she will probably get together with you from time to time for some activity where you might be seen by other Hot Babes. Why? Because you will be paying for her drinks or whatever entertainment venue you choose and she will welcome the opportunity to tell you all her problems. All women have problems. The hotter the babe the more problems she will have. The good news is that the Hot Babes who see you with her won't know that you are just friends. Really Smoking Hot Babe is not likely to be friends with other Hot Babes. If she has any female friends they will range from Ugly to Sort of Cute. Really Smoking Hot Babe has probably tried to set you up with one or more of them. There are two exceptions to the above scenarios. If you happen to be a Brutally Handsome Dude you will score with Hot Babes even if you are a broke unemployed ditchdigger. If you are Rich you will score with Hot Babes even if you look like Jabba the Hut.
Confidence and a little style will go a long way. But then again, so will a hog leg and a fat wallet.
You have come far, Grasshoppa. But you have much to learn. If you only have interest in the lookers, you will never learn the secret of the plain girls. And I'm not going to tell you.
Oh wise one...I hung out in the fun zone for quite awhile before moving into the wife zone. I can't remember if it was tiger chick or StaceyO that originally posted this, but the way this thread is going, it is appropriate for it to reappear...
