How does one acquire a literary gf?

Idk, it's impossible to approach people out in the world unless you're hot, and not only do you have to be hot you always have to pretend you're not nervous while also having a great hook or else it's "weird". America is fun. I guess just settle with proximity dating. Inveigle yourself into a group by some college or some block with eight coffee shops and settle for a 4/10 that has gone about as far as Hemingway.

Attend book-related functions (readings, signings, etc.). Talk with woman at one of these functions. Don't be a giant sperg, hubristic dick, or a pseud while talking. Be genuinely interested in literature and her opinions on literature. Be funny, especially employ dark and intelligent humor based on the subject at hand. When you've got her laughing just ask if she'd like to exchange numerals and you're on your way.

Good luck anon. Having a gf is pretty based.

Acquired my literary ex-gf by online dating. She was an MFA, creative writing. Published. She read lots of feminist works and had horrid interpersonal skills. We didn't have a future together so I broke it off.

Just be in shape, be intelligent, and don't be a total spaz. A little charm and confidence go a long way. Be involved in the book scene at your local college. Go to /lit/ events in your town.

That's not the point you stupid fuck. Holy shit, I'm talking about proximity dating, because it's so fucking hard to generate any kind of situation cold, and the reasons for that are very odd.
It's not hard to just be around someone for a while and start dating them.

>> No.9465631

>>9465599
Not really. Well, depends on the scene I guess. In my experience women are far more genuinely interested in literature than men, even when they have pleb taste.

Alternatively, do one of those dating sites and market yourself as a lit person looking for a lit person.

>>9465590
Yes, you should have. If you find her again, don't waste the opportunity like a fucking moron.

Is it considered appropriate to approach someone while reading on their commute? I was in the city the other day and on the subway a saw a cute girl reading some comix, wanted to start a conversation but I worried it was some sort of breach of etiquette and then she ended up getting off at a different stop.

>> No.9465688

The ones that listen to rap are true lit material and do not let /pol/ tell you otherwise.

I lived in the capital for 3 years and most of the "bookish" bitches in Edinburgh are utter hoes for the well-read aesthetic. The more worldly and erudite the city you live in the greater anarchy the opportunists have.

It isn't even that the subcultute aesthetic itself is wrong but the number of hollow cunts who read a book to add it to their list of titles while they fangirl over Rowling and Gaiman... Beware of the hoes with instas, tumblrs, and YT channels is the only advice I can give. And the less vain and obsessed with their image the better.

NB, no I wasnt spurned by any woman in particular, im a simple pretentious shit who hates poser ass bitches.

Depends on the city.

Anyway the fact that you dont know the etiquette of the city you live in is the greatest tell for being a fucking normie.

How the fuck do you have a meaningful experience if you dont know what the contex for meaningful experiences is? How the fuck do you break the rules if you dont even know them?

This is utter bullshit OP. You show woman you do not give af if you fuck her, then show her you care about her inner truth nonetheless.

BTW inner truth is the real grit of her life like how she felt when about that cunt who didnt stop the bus even though she was chasing it, not the socially projected bs like her gender/race based oppression.

DESU if you dont procreate with an above average partner it is your loss.

Although, Humanity is slowly but surely circling the drain towards ant-like self-sacrificing hierarchy so I suppose any genes you contribute are appreciated and will eventually be lost.

What? I think you've got that reversed. Also I don't live in the city, I was there on a job interview but I live and spend nearly all of my time in suburbia. Who said this was a 'meaningful experience' anyway?

That is your perception of reality. Which is often very far off the mark due to ego nonsense - for a lot of us, myself included.

That isn't "true reality". You talk in meaningless catchphrases.

No such thing as a truly literary gf.

Closest I got was a German girl who loved Harry Potter/Game of Thrones.

What you need to understand is that women have no real opinions of their own, and can be shaped/moulded by experienced hands.

Given that women's tastes are by definition plebeian, the onus is on you to be her literary boyfriend. Specifically, you must be her gateway drug to bigger and better works.

Judge it on a case by case basis. If you're just chatting to pick up a girl and she's busy reading and shown no interest in you, then yes its rude. If you're genuinely interested in discussing what they're reading, it isn't rude.

When people in public ask me about what I'm reading, if they're genuinely interested in what I'm reading, it's fine by me.
