What things do YOU do to make a girl laugh on a date?

[Harry Wilmington]

Hey all:

Just did a podcast about the SECRET to making a girl laugh, and was curious as to what other guys try and do to get her laughing - specifically, stuff that's actually been effective in making her laugh and increasing her interest. I'd love to get feedback from you guys about what's worked for you, so feel free to share on this post - thanks!

I don't try to make her laugh.. rather I entertain myself and hone my wit. I'm the blade, she's the stone.

If something falls flat I either ignore it or say "They can't all be gems". When she makes an attempt at humor (have you ever noticed how non-funny and nonsensical their attempts can be?) I'll often tell her to leave the humor to the professionals.

I'll listen to your podcast a bit later.

Okay, the secret wasn't really a secret, it's something you can pick up on in school but it comes back to a central point. All roads lead to Rome. If she's into you, she will give you the information that you need.

On a date, I'm not trying to make her laugh. It's coming from completely the wrong place. I think being self amused is the most powerful tool in terms of laughter. When you're at the point where you're genuinely not caring what she thinks, you're so much more attractive. All the trying to impress her, trying to make her laugh and pandering is just a front. It can't last forever, it's too tiresome. So I say forget trying to impress her or make her laugh, just keep a boyish self amused vibe, which she can't help be entranced by. Being self amused is more fun than trying to be funny, which is just a performance. It's weak sauce, you're not getting nominated for an award and being funny isn't really that sexy.

I have an answer to most things but these days I keep it to myself or just say it to myself because my behaviour was becoming too needy.I think about the girl I'm seeing, she says one of the main things she loves about me is that I'm funny. But being funny isn't sexy. I don't tell say something and she wants to rip my clothes off. It's actually the times when I'm quiet and the tensions building and I'm looking her in the eye and shes getting butterflies. I've said it on here before and I will again. Funny guys don't get laid. Being sexy and arousing will get you to wherever you want so much faster. At the end of the date, she's going to be thinking about how you made her feel. I say if she wants to laugh, she should hang out with her friends. If she wants to be aroused, now that's something I can help her with.

I don't.....

I worked on my sense of wit for many years and I've just become naturally funny when I'm out with a woman. I'll make fun of her, our situation, other people, and whatever else is in our surroundings. Unplanned and spontaneous fun is highly attractive to women.

I dont know how I make girls laugh. Either they just like me and will laugh at anything I say... Or I just kinda act like I'm with the guys and try to have fun. If she doesnt like me for who I am, the relationship isnt gonna work...

 

[gravityeyelids]

I act basically like a little kid and entertain myself. If it's a coffee date, i'll tear up those little cardboard rings on the coffee and throw the pieces at them, i'll take the plastic lid and flick it across the table at her, get a game of paper football going. tease her about stupid sh!t, etc. etc. Make ridiculous jokes about other people in the venue

I have to interject because I know advice given here is tailored towards not being a clown. Humor is essential on the first date, there is a fine line in being funny and clown. I understand that the posters above are experienced in the game and whatever works for them may not work for some. An addendum - self amusement WILL fvck you over if you don't use it properly. I am a thumbs up on entertaining yourself, but I see time and time again that inexperienced members aren't using it properly. Making people laugh is the easiest way to get the foot in the door, at the same time, overusing it will land us on the curb. There is ABSOLUTELY nothing wrong with making a girl laugh on the first date. Or second. Or third. If you are naturally funny, USE IT! I'm more on the humorous side and that hasn't prevented me from going further with women. Be yourself.

Her: Oh I've ridden that roller coaster, but it hurt my crotch
Me: Whoa! Is there something you aren't telling me?

I'm a story teller. I enjoy telling random stories about whats happened to me working or going out, even crazy things that mates have done. It's good to kill time especially if your running out of things to say.

Mixed with in some smartass calls when shes not expecting it and she's laughing calling me an a.ss hole or saying im unbelievable.

An example of what happened today with a plate.

ME: I guess I can be abit of a.sshole sometimes, what do you think?
Her: I dont know what to think
Me: Do you have that problem alot? Being blonde and not knowing how or what to think.
