The Power of a Fabulous Wing Woman
I have a theory, well it's a weird thing to think about and maybe a little superficial but have you ever become more attracted to a guy because he has a girlfriend or even because an attractive girl is talking to him? The guy you only viewed as a friend who you could never picture dating is now placed in the boyfriend role and he looks so sweet playing his part. He even gushes about her making you wish someone could gush about you that way and maybe you made a mistake, maybe you misjudged. Now he looks all the more appealing in your eyes being that he's off limits.
To get onto topic, now flip this idea on yourself, ever find yourself wondering why guys never find you desirable until you're off limits? It happens all the time. But what if you can get that same attention without the attachment of a boyfriend? Well boys and girls, now you can! Let me introduce to you the power of a fabulous wing woman.
One of my guy friends, I seriously dated one of his friends so it works if you don't think guys and girls can be friends, is always put in the friend-zone. He always comes off as someone who is non-threatening and that places him in the friend category for every girl who can't picture him as dating material. So we came up with an idea. What if I take the place of a wing woman when we go out? Everyone loves a little competition and seeing him walk in with another girl already allows every girl to view him as datable.
Think of Elle Woods in Legally Blonde when she helped out her fellow classmate who couldn't land a date. It's just human nature to desire the desirable. Think back to your high school days, when that one girl was pursued by most of the guys in your school. What did she have that you didn't? Most likely not much but the increasing amount of guys who made it a game to get her and this goes for girls too.
So being now aware of this theory it's time to do a friend a favor. There is a certain power to being a fabulous wing woman and of course, "with power comes responsibility." The next time you're out take a look around you and see which people are getting approached. Most likely, it will be the guy surrounded by girls or the girl surrounded by guys.
If you find this in fact really does work then feel free to comment and leave your own personal tips on being an awesome friend and of course a fabulous wing woman or wing man!

you nailed the perverse nature of humanity correctly
Yup, wing woman would work well only in certain circumstances
are you offering your services as wing woman? how much?
I used to be the wing woman. Now I stay at home. :p
i've had mixed experiences with this. most of my friends are girls (and are pretty attractive) and i think this actually has a negative effect on me.
in general, i prefer to approach without a wing. that way i don't have to rely on him/her not screwing up.
@testyman666@xanga - haha thank you! I am only offering advice at this time, but I'm sure you can get a friend to help you out!
I've known a few guys like that or "the ladies' man"
one guy in particular, who was one of my close friends was a playboy. he didn't sleep around, but he did frequently have new gfs. I think he was afraid of being alone, so he was constantly in short term relationships. he was interested in me, but I didn't find him appealing, because he tends to have trouble maintaining relationships and always seem to blame his gf for the downfall of his relationship, often saying that they are golddiggers. he loves to flaunt his material possessions, so I'm not surprised that some of these women would be after his material things or his flashy image. why flaunt it and boast about having swagger, then complain that they like him for his swagger
anyway, the girl, who was most desired at my school, had huge boobs and often wore low cut tops to show her cleavage
she was often surrounded by guys eager to peek at her boobies. I couldn't help but look when she was near me, too
lol I think the wing woman or wing man might not work at regular settings, but more ideal for nightclubs, where people seem more vain and catty
so instead of taking one for the team, you are the kitty blocker?
if i see a guy walk in a girl, i normally think that they came together or on a date, so i wouldn't approach him.
What are you talking about? I say if you've got the looks then you'll be approached. I'd rather approach someone who is alone rather than surrounded by a million other guys trying to get with her. I'd say most people are lazy like me and go for the ones who aren't talking with anyone.
@lil_KyungMin@xanga - I quite agree.
I have a good guy friend that I'm with alot and we definitely cock block each other unintentionally. Guess we're not good at pulling it off.
@sugar_mama@xanga - Lol yeah, seeing a guy walk into a place with a girl doesn't make me think, "Oh, he's available!" I think the exact opposite when that happens.
@TheNotoriousGOD@xanga - I don't approach with the wing when it's a girl but walking in with them and having them next to you most of the night certainly doesn't hurt.
