Judgement - It’s NOT the inside that counts
Originally posted at http://fletchmylife.wordpress.com
With Valentines day soon approaching I feel this is a good topic for me to rant on about - if you’re stupid enough you’ll probably take this as some sort of “how to get laid guide”.
They always say when it comes to romance, it’s the inside that counts, not the looks. But sadly I don’t think there’s a single creature on this planet that hasn’t taken the looks of their victim into account before forming a relationship. I for myself can say that when I’m walking down the street looking the boss in my dark-red Kashmir sweater, casual jeans and simple/smart cardigan, there’s absolutely no way on hell’s earth that I’d want to be seen holding hands with a snotty nosed, greasy haired Lonsdale tracksuit wearing munter. I’d want to be holding hands with someone who, like myself is dressed casual but yet somewhat smart and clean in appearance.
That’s the sad reality and I’m sure that 95% of the Human race would share the same view as me.
Appearance
But appearance leads on to how we judge people. We establish from first glance whether or not we’d want to be associated with that particular person(s). Take the ruffians in the top featured image for example. From a glimpse at that image I can safely say I’d not want to be around them for as long as I so live - I mean look at them as they clutter the streets wearing their baseball caps, tracksuit bottoms, terrible cheap jackets and trainers that were probably nicked during the London riots. Their pillow must be a razor blade with hair of that un-stylish length…
Personality
Okay so you’ve used the power of the eye and let’s assume you’ve made the assumption that the particular person we’re talking about is approachable. You’ll start with small talk (trying not to sound like a complete creep) you’d also then lead on to asking the person about their self, if a member of the opposite sex the opportunity to go for a drink or coffee could be an option worth taking.
You can learn a lot about a person from conversation, a quick stalker-ish look at their Facebook profile isn’t going to do justice. For a start their tone of voice can be of help to your opinion, if like myself they’re well spoken, clear voice and accent then you get the impression they’re from a somewhat privileged background and not living on an Oxfam doorstep at night pestering people for cigarettes and obviously assumption would lead you to believe that the fouler the tone of voice, the worse the background (and by fouler tone I’m not referring to Scouser accents. Okay, maybe I am!).
You can also find out in depth a persons hobbies and interests (as presumably like most people when given the opportunity they won’t stop banging on about their talents - And if they’re by any chance a porn star then BA DUM TSSSS!) and afterwards make the next and perhaps most vital decision: Would you ever like to see this person again or do you believe that they should be locked up because of their creepy, absolutely barmy attitude and personality?
Lifestyle
After first approaching and in this circumstance finding your victim bearable, you’d obviously want to spend more time with them - either because you’re a clingy freak who just wants to get laid, or just a cool fun guy who likes being social.
People lead either a somewhat professional lifestyle, fun lifestyle or a mixture of both.
Use the previous paragraphs to help determine which is the best path to take
Professional: A somewhat sophisticated night out. Pleasant meal, bit of TV or a film and a short debate between the two of you whilst watching Question Time. Discuss hobbies, perform/listen to music together, join a book club together - the list goes on. Pretty much everything boring!
Fun: Alcohol, fags, sex, loud music, more alcohol, more sex… Take the raving rarseclarts in the picture above - Look at them how they all pose for the picture making you wish you were there with them instead of reading some delusional teenagers Blog article.
And there you have it, making the right judgement could change your life - it could lead to a long lasting friendship or relationship, or it may just make you look an absolute creepy, obsessive tit - that is if you’ve been following everything I’ve said in this article word by word, then yes you are a massive tit and in which case you have just as much chance of getting laid as this guy.
Ciao!
