    Rent a white horse and dye it bright red. Gallop it around her

    Then burn her church to the ground.

    Come back and let us know if this works.
    No, God wouldn't like it, and neither would I, or me siblings or parents, or grandparents, or aunts, or uncles, or cousins...

    you're obviously very young, and still entertaining the silly notion of nice guys actually finishing first.

    Being bad is good - disinterested even better. No big gestures just a couple of little put down
    remarks and the odd sneer should do it.

    Lets face it no one would bother to go fishing if the blighters all jumped into the net as soon as
    you sat down. Hitting on her brother is probably going a bit far...try chatting up her best friend
    instead.

    Nice guys do get girls eventually but that's to do with shrinking gene pool theory.

    I used to be just like you, with no self-confidence because I had not accomplished anything. Then I took up chess, and before long I was winning games, thus gaining the self-confidence I had lacked.

    That made all the difference. These days, almost every night I'm bringing home a different hot chick who's been attracted by my air of self-confidence. I fire up the computer, show her some of my more recent victories at redhotpawn.com, and before long we're in bed and she's yelling with passionate abandon, "Checkmate me, baby, checkmate me!"

    And I owe it all to chess.

    Not one bit of good advice yet for our comrade from you lot so I must step in.

    Courtship is like chess: Well-established opening moves, chaotic middle, inexorable end-game ending in mate.

    Opening: Play a solid, standard opening, one that you know well and won't beat you early, i.e. give yourself a chance to get to the middle. Dinner and a movie is the Sicilian or dating. A walk in the park, the Petroff. Do not play the Bird!

    Middle: Here your moves are dictated by your opponent's mistakes. It is all tactics. Look for an opening, a hole in her defenses, a piece left hanging. Then pounce. Do not expose your king too soon. Get your pieces to work together. Advance your pawns when you can. Sacrifice everything to gain an advantage. Avoid smothered mate.

    End-game: If you have no advantage going into the end-game, resign and look for another opponent. But if you have an advantage, exploit it. March your pawns towards promotion. Box her king into a corner. Watch out for forks and skewers. Keep your eye on the time clock.

    If you play well, you will mate her and she will win.

    Many young players lose by getting their queen out to early and going for mate without proper
    development. Although schoolboys mate works sometimes against inexperienced opponents the
    game is over very quickly and of very limited pleasure in comparison to the excitement of a proper
    game with someone who knows how to handle the pieces.

    Think strategically but practice your tactics (tactics being the moment to moment snippets of
    conversation and simple actions). Every conversation every relationship every interaction is a
    chance to hone those invaluable interpersonal skills.

    Remember that however grand your strategy a simple tactical blunder will
    often cost you the game.

    Young men who practice alone with computers don't get the same satisfaction as those who play
    real opponents and wearing yourself out in this way is inadvisable.

    Depends if the girl has some potential or some drag to chess somehow, then yes you can. I get impressed from good tactical play chess games. I get really really impressed, that's because I love the game very much, now here is the difference. Sacrificial play is my favourite and it's very nice to talk with people who understand that side of chess properly.

    Rec'd.... sounds like you have read Zig Ziglar's book..."See you at the Top"
    I like this quote, "There is two ways to get to the top of a tall oak, sit on an acorn, or climb the tree"...paraphrased.
