Well, you may or may not have to lower standards...but Around here if to can talk to a girl for a month go out on a few dates (you paying for everything and driving aswell) and act like you really care you can get 'in' alot.
Seems really dirty and you may be labeled as one who 'has no standards' but it's all about what I was told as a young Robbie... "quantity over quality"
If lowering your standards gets you "in a lot" that's definitely one way of doing it. My lil brother used to be a "player" and would nail anything with a pulse it seemed, til he got married, then between wife #1 and his current wife, he had so many women chasing him it was silly. Having so many calling him seemed to make some pretty hot ones get interested too, but he didn't discriminate against the ones who were, well, not "model material" if you will.
I never could or would play that game. No lowered standards, I guess I'd rather go without. I guess I lucked out because apparently my wife lost a bet and I wound up marrying WAYYYY above my level. Before her I could count all the previous girls on one hand, and not use my thumb. And I don't think I'm any less a man for it, I just knew what I wanted. Carrie and I have been together for 21 years now this summer, married 17 of those.
And trust me on this, you don't need a large number of girls to have "quantity." You get the right one you'll have a different kind of quantity, more of it than you think you can physically handle. Quality AND quantity is the real Holy Grail.
