How many friends of yours are girls?

How many friends of yours are girls? I mean real friends, not girls you're pining over and being friends with only because you think one day you might hook up with her.

If your answer is "one" or "none" then you're way behind in utilizing one of the most effective ways to meet new women - through other women. Women are a RESOURCE to other women.

I know guys who are really good at getting women into bed very fast, and anytime they need a warm body in their bed they head off to find one and pretty much have one by the next day if not that night. Those guys really don't need to befriend girls in order to get laid, they do just fine with a tiny set of mostly guy friends and barely have any interest to have a woman around unless they're attracted to her and want to sleep with her or are sleeping with her.

That is the MINORITY, even for guys who are good with women. The more typical guy who is good with women will be successful not only by having the skill to pick women up but to utilize resources and create opportunities which puts him in front of a lot more women who will mostly be his resource to other new women.

One of the best ways to increase the number of women you are meeting regularly is through other women, in the form of making friendships with females who know the kind of women you like - lots of them. Meaning, a woman who has a network of female friends of the type you are interested in.

Not only will the access be there, but through introduction, you are also going to benefit from the equivalent of a "stamp of approval".

I've had a number of decent jobs in my life and all but one of them I got through referral and not by filling out an application or submitting a resume. A company needed to hire someone, a referral was made, I kicked ass at interviews, and got the job that probably dozens of others had applied for. Perhaps some of them were even more qualified, but it didn't matter because I had what they did not - the nod of approval from a trusted source.

Obviously your female friend has to like you (platonically) and believe you to be a great guy, and the type of guy she would look forward to introducing to her other friends.

You can be a great guy easily when you let go of trying to bed a girl you focus on being friends with. Most guys like you DO have qualities women would be interested and sometimes those qualities simply can't be projected on a first meet with a stranger.

When you are introduced to that stranger via her friend then you gain a very non-pressured avenue for displaying that greatness, starting on the right foot from the very beginning.

You may not be her friend's "ideal man" but you've got what her ideal man out there doesn't have - the nod of approval from a trusted source.

Still, this is not an outright replacement for building up your social skills. Building up your skills to be able to meet and attract women on your own should still be a focal point of your self-improvement.

Think of it like diversifying your strategies and options. Each strategy builds upon and supports the other.
