Honestly, the reason I played chess is not because I truly enjoys it, but it is because I wanted to have a sense of accomplishment.
After playing many years of computer games, I do not feel inspired of felt the slightest hope of becoming something great in my future.
Now, here's gal that I am very attracted to (unfortunately she is the sister of some ...[text shortened]... men like a real MAN.
do you think Chess will be my savior if I began to take it seriously?
Originally posted by EmLaskeryou're dodging a bullet there, probably not a great idea to try to change that.
i'm not religious, but she's VERY religious.
about chess and girls... no. simply no. that one won't happen. even if she's into chess it won't happen. if it'll happen, it won't be because of chess but other things.
however, being passionate about something always gives you a bit of character, even if it's chess. being passionate about playing guitar is probably better when it comes to girls, but it's really not the point. the point is, doing something that's you is interesting. people respond to that. and you can't really fake being passionate. (well, you can, but you're not gonna wanna be with anyone who buys it, so save yourself the trouble and do it properly to begin with.)

To get a girl to notice you by being good at some sort of competition is easy! You just need to follow some simple rules:
1) When you win, make sure to gloat as much as possible. If your opponent has some sort of unfortunate physical abnormality, be sure to point that out as well so that your opponent understands that you are not only better at him in ...[text shortened]... ionship based on your ability to win chess games?
Self-confidence is all you need.
however it won't land you the girl of your dreams. unless you have a predisposition for idiots.

Originally posted by wormwoodIt usually helps to act like a 'disgusting idiot' at first. Don't come over all nervous, act like you don't care, most girls (and women) find that kind of self esteem interesting. Then, once you have her attention and start to talk, be the nice guy you really are and listen to her as GP mentioned, ask questions based on what she's saying. Nodding and 'yeah, I get that a lot' are ways of showing her that you're still paying attention, even though she's been rambling for hours.

Just be yourself, but clean up, dressing like a ragdoll as you put it isn't helping anybody I think. Get confidence and let her fall for who you really are, rather than taking up a hobby to 'land chicks'.
Basically, it's all about confidence, if you have self esteem, you will radiate it and girls pick that up, always!
And this topic really should not be in the only chess forum 😉

Then burn her church to the ground.
Come back and let us know if this works.
"Rape her.
Come back and let us know if she liked it"
it is fine.
