A picture is worth thousand words.
... or thousand denials
PS: Not that I am interested! Present yourself properly, and change your
location in "my settings".

So you don't have any friends, who have some female friends, who might be more familiar with you than some random girl on the streets?

| | | Re: Dating Scene What's up with Swiss women?
you're not alone.
there is no wonder-cure.
but if you try too hard, the chicks notice.
you sound like you're trying too hard and are focussed on this. That's not good.

Hey boy-wonder, how old are you? No, not thinking to date you, just curious because your behaviour does not sound very mature.
Lob is very right, a guy who tries too much is a major turn off to a girl. Girls like to be chased, just like guys. If you are too available, there is no excitement left.
Why don´t you read the book "the Game". I have not read it but a male friend of mine has and he thinks it´s very interesting and indeed might help you in your approach.
Good luck!!! |

I know I will be flamed by the EF-core for this, but here it goes.
Yes, indeed, getting girls in Zürich or Switzerland is very difficult, but very easy at the same time.
see, Zürich girls are very superficial and at the same time very deep.
So, if you are a good looking and muscled guy, it won't be difficult to get you not one but many girls here, and they even be quite ok with you having many.
on the other side they are deep, they need to know you well and this takes a long time, first to get inside their trust circle, and after to get to know them.
But I think it is also a matter of finding the right environment and having the right attitude.
Take me as an example. I am old, ugly and boring, but I know and go out with many young, pretty and interesting girls.
Simply they are girls that move in my environment and like my kind.
It would be a waste of time trying to chat or ask out girls that are not tuned with my culture/background/style etc etc.
I am not telling you there is a magical solution, it is not easy here in comparison with other places, but also in your own country it would be difficult if not impossible to try to get a girl that her expectations are not campatibile with what you can offer and viceversa.
The only advice I could give, is to be natural, get rid of the stresss of being a foreigner, being alone ( with all that come with that for us males IYKWIM ), go out a lot, find an environment compatible with your background and approach the girls without a hidden agenda ( that they can read fast an easy, specially when you are "in a hurry" ), and let the things flow.
They like men that are natural, funny and easy going and who know to take initiative, keeping things on an appropriate respectful but not too-slow/shy approach
who knows, maybe she is there waiting for you.
Hope this helps

You serisously didn't keep count did you?
My best tip, think about who you live with? do they have friends? If you live by yourself, think about a WG-share appartment if it bothers you that much. You'll meet a lot of people that way.
Just going for random chicks is to much hit and miss and you're obviously missing to much!!

Girls like confident, easy going, natural guys. Looks are not so important unless you are very unattractive. An average guy can go far if he´s confident and not too pushy or "trying" |

boy-wonder,
Join a gym. Build your muscles. Meet the girls who train there.
