So how would you change up? pic of myself

[Lincoln]

Buddy of mine turned me on to this site, awesome info. Been cruising everything for a couple of weeks.

I'm doing great in the social "network" with lays, but I have only pulled 2 out of a bar since January. (3 times a month on busy nights) My main wing pulls every single time effortlessly. Granted I'm a tad more picky but I am stuck here.

We both agree I intimidate women when I stand up (6'8") but I don't know what I am doing wrong. I don't number close women, I give them my number and leave it at that...usually get a response 50% or so. Kinda low, but I think it takes the "flake" factor out.

This photo is from Christmas but it is pretty recent. I NEED to get a new wardrobe but it is pretty tough since my clothes are all funky sized and designer jeans are non existent. Any changes?

Hey man I only have a couple seconds, here's a couple things just off the top of my head you could work on:

Facial hair! You need to either lose it completely or drastically downsize what you have going on there. I guarantee what you have now is a turnoff for 95% of HB6+.

Your smile/demeanor in general could use some work. When I saw your pic the first thing I thought is that you're insecure and/or a bit unsure of yourself. Maybe this is because you're not comfortable with your height? Whatever the reason, put forth some more effort in showing those purly whites. Practice in the mirror if you have to.

You could also use something to make you look a little less "blah" (as in boring). Throw on a necklace, maybe a ring or two and a watch.

I'd also hit the gym and work on putting on some muscle. Maybe you have been doing this already, maybe not. Either way check out the bible for help on adding muscle mass if you need to.

You're on the right track by being here to learn and improve yourself. Keep working on improving a little each day and over time you will notice a great difference.

good place to start getting an idea about clothes and a style you'd like to build for yourself.

Well guess who else is 6'8" and has tried to craft a muscular frame, even got banned for his stint with anabolics (and he says it was only to look more muscular)?

It's tougher for guys this tall to create a muscular frame with all the surface area the mass gets distributed, but, he can always try. This at the least, can increase his confidence, inner-game and possibly social life.

Now you've got to read info on using kino, comfort-building and throwing in some decent jokes to name a few things. This could even help reduce the flaking if you decide to close them.

On first glance I think you would actually look good in a suit no joke, I agree as well with the taking off the goatee and shortening up with the hair unless you cant live without it but I would take it off. I think maybe a watch or bracelet and maybe you can wear form fitting shirts , but other then that I dont know.

Don't shave the Abe Lincoln.

it looks cool

If you want decent clothes without paying a lot of money, just go to a thrift store. The right threads make difference in your social interactions, especially with HB8+. The problem is you have to look much harder for decent clothes. You can always find magazine cutouts of men (shirtless abercrombie ads don't help for obvious reasons) and see how they're dressed, then go to the thrift store and find an outfit aesthetically similar.

6'8 is effing huge. I can see how you're worried that would intimidate girls, since 5'8 is tall for a girl and that's a whole foot lower than you. I can't help you with that one, buddy, cause I'm seven inches shorter than you... (6'1)

P.S. I don't approve of the large goatee you got. =/

Shave the goatee, its not help you thus far. If you keep doing what you've always done, you'll keep getting the same ****.

Just try some of it out, no one is suggesting things to change permanently.

ok, heres my suggestions, in this order:

-shave off goatee
-check out http://men.style.com/gq find styles you like, mix and match and naturally you'll develop a sense of style. I then go out and get similar clothing from cheaper stores
-REMEMBER: its the fit that matters, don't buy baggy clothing or short clothing for that matter. the fit of clothing makes a big difference.
-grow your hair longer, taper to the sides (go to a professional stylist (essensuals or Tony&Guy) and get them to make you look fcking sexy) its important you wear the clothes you've bought to the appointment, so they can see the identity/image you're going for.

It still takes me usually 2-3 periods of wearing the clothing and going out in public for it to feel completely natural and comfortable. when you first start making changes, you'll get a lot of remarks, people will go crazy when you seem to getting healthier, fitter and sexier. Some will praise you, some will react negatively (its only natural) in the fear of you abandoning them (they'll think subconsciously that because you've raised your standards you no longer fit 'in' with them and it threatens them).

You're on the road to success!
