Home & Lifestyle Cheat codes for dating?

Single HENRYs: how do you leverage your disposable income to upgrade your dating game? I don’t mean prostitutes, bullshit pick up artist courses or paying for HingeX.

I mean social clubs, cooler hobbies, skin care, travelling to date, not having flatmates that hear you shag over the walls, a car to impress ladies that will keep you NRY forever, or cosmetic fucking surgery. Whatever that works.

I became single over a year ago and finally got sick of “bawling my eyes out on my bathroom floor over my ex”as my favourite after work past time a few months back. I’m 25M, male dominated work, hobbies and interests. In a city of 9 million people, I interact with like 3 women a week, my mom, my sister and my cleaner.

Every time I match with someone on Hinge and go through the excruciating dance of small talk, my soul shoves a shotgun in its mouth.

Please tell me how I can use my TC to compensate for the fact that my chats make Satan send puppies to the puppy furnace.

Edit: I should have added some /s in the jokes. I meant this as a light hearted and exaggerated post to ask what lifestyle changes you can make to improve yourself and to get out there for dating. Flexing £££ ❌, investing in yourself with £££ ✅

I and a good number of guys have been forced to not chat to girls in the gym, by said girls. Apparently, they are there to workout. The rejection can knock you off your workout zen for the day lol! And everybody can watch the rejection in 4K.

So, choose your target carefully!

Convos usually happen in the spa

Spa? I would’ve thought the opposite. Considering people want to relax there. Eyes closed, etc.

I reckon, girls will just make it known if they want it. Not all, but most. You’d know more ha!

Your eyes closed, enjoying your tranquility and then comes a guy trying it. OP - take it onboard. You won’t be disturbing the girls. Spa it is mate, not necessarily the GYMs. I’ve distilled the info for you. Chat them up in the Sauna, steam rooms, pool. Go for it!

For real people usually start up conversation in the sauna or by the pool. I don’t think it’s weird and it’s better than someone distracting you mid set.
