Hey guys when I wear contacts I get better reception from girls but logistically wearing contacts is difficult because I don't live downtown. Should I continue to learn game the hard way, plow my way with confidence or use contacts more often? btw I'm in college so I don't have much $$ to change wardrobes or prescription glasses to optimize my look where wearing glasses would work better than contacts. I've found the biggest difference in reception is in clubs and bars so I'll go there less often and focus on day game.

Contacts give you less of a nerd label but I wear glasses and they play well with my looks. Mostly because there is a particular style I need to rock with it. I pomade my hair and wear party type clothing to let people know I am partying and not studying. These days glasses are also becoming cool to wear.

Always contacts. I have yet to meet a guy who looks better in glasses than he does without, and there is also an evolutionary selection element that comes into play with corrective eyeware.

I would only attempt glasses if I was going for a sophisticated, smart older guy look.

What is that supposed to mean? I use Acuvue Oasys and can leave them in for a week at a time if I want.

Most people look better with black rim glasses

Lasik surgery if you can afford it, it's a bizarre experience, but I think it is totally worth it to go from horrible vision to 20/20.

only contacts I have last for maybe 14 hours tops. my last bus home leaves around 12am so if I'm going out I'll need to take the first bus home at around 7am.

thanks for all the tips

For some reason, girls love to try and grab my glasses off my face when they've been drinking. I've used my temporary blindness as an excuse to cop a feel on more than one occasion in the past few years.

Glasses can be a solid accessory for us intellectual types who are hard to open. I'd say a solid 70% of the time somebody wants to start a conversation with me they compliment my glasses.
