So a couple of the guys and I have been just going out and looking at houses. This is something that I really enjoy doing because 1) I’m looking for a house and seem to always be looking for a house, and 2) it’s a great place to go and meet people.
House-hunting is a great way to meet people. First of all, many single women buy houses. Secondly, many women like to decorate so they go house-hunting to get ideas for décor. When you go to an open house you will always find lots of women hanging around.
And we did. We walked towards the open house, and there was a woman on her way out. How did I open her? “Hey, how was it?”
She started telling me, and we were talking, and I began to ask her questions like, “so how long have you been looking for a house?” I was trying to find things out about her. And you could see her attraction starting to build as I lead the conversation.
And then we walked into the house. I’ve been looking for a new house for about a year, and the realtor looked really familiar. I asked him, “hey man, you seem really familiar, where was it that we’ve met?” He responded, “oh yeah, it was Granville.”
I don’t really remember it being Granville, so I played along for a bit, and then I did remember him. So we talked a little bit more.
And David, one of my clients, was wondering, oh man, why are we wasting time talking to this dude? The reason that you talk to the dude is this: you are building up your social network.
The biggest mistake that men make in situations like open houses and bars is that they just wait to talk to the hot woman. They have the opportunity to chat with this guy, and they don’t take it.
And then, a week later, they run into this guy again, and he’s out with three hot women. You could walk right up to him and say, “hey man, did that condo ever sell?” And then you are introduced to the women as a friend – as a safe person that has already been screened. You don’t have to worry about an opener or finding the right thing to say, because you’re being introduced!
That is the reason why I spent ten minutes talking to the realtor and not just waiting to speak to women that I’m attracted to. I now have a friend. You could see the way he responded to me.
Always give out your business card as well. Always give it to the brokers, and everyone. Why would you want to hand out business cards to brokers and other men? Because, once again, you are building your social network.
You are there, talking to someone, and you hand him your card. Later, the guy calls you to ask if you’re still looking for property and you tell him you’re not quite sure. Then he says, “look, I’m having a get-together at my house and a few other people will be there…” This is also a great way to get invited to parties!
You have to start thinking outside of the box, particularly if you’re playing for keeps – if you want to go out and meet spectacular people. If you just want to continue to meet average people, sure, keep going to the bars. But if you want to meet spectacular people, you have to think outside the box.

That is so true. People want to be recognized so be friendly even with strangers. We all live different lifestyles and have different beliefs. When approaching a woman you have heard the expression having a bad hair day. Well say something that will make her smile and think hey he is not a bad guy. The guys I work with discuss with me all sorts of things and I have a comeback for them. But it is done in a nice way. I have them joke cut up and kid around with me. But what I like about a man if I want to get to know him is how he was when he was a kid and what he was like when he was a teenager.
Thanks for the post you good man!
watsup Sandra!
my comments for todays blog: I totally believe in giving people my best no matter which gender. Few months ago, I met a wonderful woman who dating someone else at that time, and last week I got a text from one of her friend saying that she would like to meet me b/c her friend thinks highly of me. This lesson taught me, no matter what, exchange your contact info. and give everyone your best.

Nutting much but that is what u call the shy girl technique. Give it a try who knows what might come up.

Email me at angelmouse@bellsouth.net I will tell you something but not here.
I only don’t like it when a stranger starts asking me questions, I’m like ,this is none of your business. They always stop asking you questions when you ask back. It’s so rude. You can make conversation without asking personal questions like these ones: where do you live, what do you do for a living, where did you go to school, do you have roomates, do you come often here, etc.
I don’t use business cards because for what I do if you can’t remember me talking to you then you aren’t serious enough about working with me. It helps that I’m memorable.
I agree about networking being important. Everyone has a hot friend or cousin
I used to go to real estate open houses on Sunday afternoons for sport – just to make myself get out of the house – rain or shine. I went to a minimum of 5 every time I ventured out and I found that people were more than a little helpful when they explained the pluses and minuses of any particular feature. I met a lot of people during the better part of a year and I found myself taking many a house ‘tour’ with familiar people – realtors or prospective buyers.
I learned a lot about what suited me and my needs, not just a different place from where I was living at the time, and I went from being a casual looky-lou to a serious buyer. Ten months and over a hundred open houses later, I ended up buying a house that I would never have initially considered in my search. The realtor (a former condo neighbor) is still in contact and sends me notices of all kinds of events from political and charitable to home maintenance classes/contacts and just plain fun stuff. Need I say, I learned more about social networking from my realtor as a result of just trying to find a new way to make myself get out more often.

I was told by another individual that it is boring to ask questions like that. For when a guy is looking around a room full of people he is usually looking at the girl who is having a better time with the guys. Also are they doing a job interview or what.
Do you know how I expand my horizons I listen to songs like Fancy by Reba McIntyre and think how it would be like to be like Fancy. Or just going up to a guy and saying something nice or just being myself. At work they call me a fun loving person. Then looking at the world around me and practicing what I have learned. Speaking to others is the way to gain friendship in many ways. So let your hair down women and guys look around you and get your head out of the sand there are women out there wondering hey what would it be like just to speak to them or be with you.
Sandra: I will.
Jordan: it also bores me as well, when people ask me too many personal questions. Actually not only it bores me but it also piss me off:)
Who wants to do a job interview with a stranger anyway?
I used to expand my horizon by just picking one activity I always wanted to do at some point in my life… and doing it that very week.
Once you do enough of them, you start discovering a lot of things in your neighborhood, but you start learning a lot of things about yourself too.
Totally agree, you have to talk to guys also and network and expand your social circle. I’ve made TONS of business contacts because I talk to nearly as many guys as chicks.
A friend and I used to go to open houses in our late teens. It was terribly fun! I also don’t have a business card. Most people remember me or if they don’t one of their family members does. I just have trouble remembering them….people look so different with their clothes on.
Bertie
I sure do hope so having their clothes that is. lmao. no offense but i do know what u r talking about.
I think the girl’s name is Cinderella, but i haven’t found any info about her.
She either might have changed her name or she is out of the biz.

This is right here, in the present, not the future.
I found the best thing to my sister’s birthday… It’s really hard to find cool and still unique.
So today I saw this thing from ZTARLET on facebook where you can name a real star in the sky and have the certificate and a teddy bear sent to you and pay it by a single SMS. So awesome

I saw that Casey Fronczek is offering fishing trips now down in south Florida. Does anybody have any input on these trips or has anyone been on one of these trips before?
