Thanks a bunch cCcincisikercCc, You got 1 + from me for the solid info on Turkey and Istanbul.

I will start looking into staying closer to Baghdad street then......

Answer 2 more questions for me

1. Best way to pipeline in Istanbul , I mean to line up dates before I hit the ground, What sites do girls use most for dating.....

2. Best place to game Tourist Girls ?

A +1 from me too, that's some good info.

[Lothario]

Alright brethren as promised here is my update and addition to this existing thread after a brief 2 day stopover visit.....

I will divide the targets into three main groups.

1. Turkish Girls

2. Tourists

3. Russian/ FSU

1. Turkish girls: better to look for them around the universities like mentioned in the thread before, They do go out but mostly in groups, more boys then girls in a group and most boys do there best at cockblocking. I couldn't put my finger on Turkish guy game, some were overly aggressive and others were quite beta, holding hands, trying to kiss girls on cheeks, etc.... You can also find them around Istiqlal street and takshim square , they are very difficult to pull, social circle etc, Seemed like they were not even Intersted, very few glanced a look and you bet I approached but was shut down due to Language barrier . Didn't seem like girls go out looking for dick, they were out with friends having fun....

2. Tourists girls: loads of tourists in Istanbul. During day time find them at the most visited places in Sultanahmet, like Topkapi Palace, Hagia Sophia, blue mosque, etc etc Gelata tower in Beyoglu and at Night time on Istiqlal Ave, and the bars around the Navezade district on Istiqlal street but there was no one single bar where tourists congregated. Most of them seemed like paired up and I did see a lot of backpackers, met a cool guy from LA, heard him say something to a vendor in spice market and couldn't mistake his accent for a US accent and started talking to him, He ended up being a solid Wingman and areal nice guy , It started raining and we went into a side cafe for chai tea and Hookah and stayed there for good 1.5 hrs and spit game on all the passing tourists, one Lebanese chic started biting who was in the next stall but didn't want to separate from her group.

3. Russian/ FSU Girls : From the info I gathered Russian girls mostly congregate on the beach towns of Antalya and Izmir etc. Threre are pros in Istanbul that I didn't indulge in but I was asked by shady pimps to step inside some shady bars and was promised girls will gave me company , I stepped inside one where girls were dancing around a pole and I was asked to pick one and enjoy the company, I briskly walked out of the underground bar.

Where to stay : Depends what you are after and budget , best bet is stay around Beyoglu and logistics are covered for Takshim and Istiqlal ave where all the night time action is and Sultanahmet is. 15 min walking distance where you can spit game on tourists all day long.

Final Impression: First thing I realized was how difficult it is to Game a Girl if you don't speak the native language , I know RVF has taught this lesson many times before but message really hit the spot when I wasn't able to proceed past the opener and may be a minimal ramble.

Things I noted that people are doing differently in Turkey, like taking the time to smell the roses, working to live and not living to work. In my recent travel to turkey, people take the time to sit down midday to enjoy their coffee , chai/tea and play a board game , Ate their food slowly and give it time to digest. People generally seemed more happy and relaxed although not more rich.

Another lesson taught on the forum , it's always easy to game girls where you live , get better then venture out, Damn Right I should be thankful for the measly 8 bangs that I got last year and Turkey is not my fishbowl , well on to the next location to find my Fishbowl pussy paradise........

Thanks lothario. Do they speak any other language besides Turkish there?

[lotharius]

Agree, there are either the aggresive Turk cockblockers, or the quiet ones with pent up lust ready to explode

I took a very last minute trip to Turkey and spent 5 days there. I am going to try not to sound redundant because what Lothario and others have said have been on point..

If you're looking to get that Turkish flag in Istanbul then you're not going to get it going solo. Before the trip I went on CS to find someone younger, preferrably still in university to show me around. Magically, one girl messaged me saying she would show me around.

I had a hard time getting a conversation going with girls on the tram, streets, etc mostly due to the language barrier. The only real conversations I had (without the help of my CS [/u]friend) was with the workers in the malls. Try to get out of the touristy area and hit up Takism and the surronding areas.

There were ton of european/asian tourist though. I had more sucess chatting with the Chinese woman in one day then I did with Turkish girls during my whole stay. Too bad most of them were in large sight seeing groups.

As for location I divided my time between the Four Seasons/Antique Hostel which is right near the Blue Mosque stop. That's right near most of the attractions. It's only a 10 min tram ride to Takism also. During my last day, I actually hung out with a average looking Brazillan girl. I feel like this might be a good country to get a few other flags.

Now the girl who I met on CS showed me around for a couple of days. If you can get in contact with someone than that would INCREASE your chances. Within that first day she introduced me to her sister, two other girl-friends, and another dude. On the last day she invited me to have a tradational dinner with her sister, a couple, and her other roommate. I def had a good time getting to know her sister but I can't say, "if I had more time..." I tell you what though, if you get yourself a Turkish GF they will treat you like a king. Myself and the other married guy I was with didn't have to lift a finger. Drinks were poured, food was put in our plates, women did all the dishes, etc etc. Guy said it's just how it is.

Def seems like this is the marriage first before lots of sex type of society. I was asked by the couple at the CS place and by other people if I was.

WARNING: Stay away from people asking you for tea also. That CS told me a story about how a Canadian was "taken" for some money after he accepted some. As soon as I got off tbe tram some guy was really incessant about having some tea with him.

This is true. The way I got around it — without lying, like a previous poster suggested — is take an Anglo girl you can pretty much pick-up anywhere in Sultanahmet. Australians are pretty common in that area. I should also point out, the clubs are different to what you find in the West.

I might head back to Istanbul in May for historical reasons alone, anything else is secondary. I don't want to sound negative, but because the country is still somewhat religious it not an easy ride, girl-wise. You need serious moves to be consistently picking up chicks.

If you're staying somewhere, I had the best luck here: Nişantaşı.

Someone needs to write a proper report ...

[Mentavious]

Agreed. Not sure if anyone has stayed in Turkey for a long enough time to really give a detailed report. Doesn't look like any non-turkish men have gotten a turkish flag from inside Turkey either.

I did, but I was travelling in Turkey for 3 months. I stayed in one town for a month and met a non-conformist, non-muslim girl (very rare). Took me 3 dates to get her into bed and after that she was super-clingy. I know some Turkish women very well and sex outside of marriage or a serious LTR is rare, even in Istanbul. The men are super-cockblockers, very protective of their women.

It's because they are super undersexed, they also love hitting on foreign women because they know it's a better chance for quick sex.

Slowly things are beginning to change though, culturally. The younger generations are increasingly liberal and nonconformist, lots of hipster types too. In maybe 5-10 years Istanbul could be a poosy paradise.

I did a night in Istanbul. I was pleasantly surprised. I got two numbers just on the metro ride from the airport, and might of had a third, as a I foolishly ignored an IOI... I thought there were lots of cute girls, but I do appreciate the exotic look in addition to scandinavian blondes. I had success at the club Reina (though I'd love to see it in summer at full bloom), and hooked my first set. I had a choice between an Iranian girl who lived in Istanbul who didn't drink, and a Turkish girl who lived in Canada and who smoked and drank. The former was cuter, but the latter said dtf. Indeed she was. Dragged her outside for a passionate makeout, and rounded 2nd base. She then left with her friends so she wouldn't look like a total slut and we met up later).

I may have gotten lucky though. While there were 4-5 groups of girls at Reina, mostly there were mixed groups of cock-blocky guys. There were some Dutch models, who themselves were willing to talk, but huge bouncer-type Turkish dudes ran interference. I'm guessing they were high-end prostitutes, though hard to say... The place to game may be at the women's bathroom -- girls leave their groups, and then are good for swooping. I got some girl's number in the bathroom, and while she refused to meet at the club (in view of her friends), she blew up my phone later that night and the next morning. I exchanged instagram with several additional girls going back to the airport. My blonde hair and blue eyes were definitely popular in Istanbul. I would love to go back, although I would believe that sex tends to happen slowly there with normal girls.

A last note about Reina: drinks were $13 a pop. I tried sneaking in my own stuff, but they do a competent job frisking you, so no chance. Best bet is to pregame a bit and then go. At least when I was there in winter there was no cover. I tried to get into a club nearby, but they told me "no singles". A third "Arab club" near there let me in, but then said I had to get a table, minimum of $100US. I opted to bail. Reina did have lots of foreigners, but I only met expats rather than tourists (it was winter). I realized too late I should have said I "moved" there rather than was just there for one night... And you will have to compete with Turkish men for the expat girls. Particularly in summer when the place is booming, I think anyone in the game world would have at least a tolerable chance of success at Reina, which should be your backup option in any case.
