After almost 2 whole months back stateside I think I'm ready to head back to Europe. I'm surprised I made it this long lol. The US is great and all, but at this point in my life it makes more sense to live tax free, be able to drive my car as fast as I want without tickets or DC traffic, and fuck lots of white girls with different accents. I gave it the old college try and all that, but if 2 months of online and club dates are any indication, the east coast is a pretty fucked up place to game, quality and quantity wise (with the possible exception being NYC). I'm sure if I stayed here long enough I could adjust my game and score big and all that, but IMO the quality still wouldn't be better (or easier to get) than Europe. Plus I came back for the wrong reasons and now that I have an opportunity to live somewhere outside the US where the speak English, I haven't been this excited about a new country in a while.

It's not 100% yet but I have a job offer at an air base about 75 miles from central London, and I don't want to waste any time so I need some help from dudes that have been out there in the field. Particularly Americans who have lived in the UK. I know Europe pretty well and I got my mainland game under control, but I've never actually lived in the UK. Only visited London a bunch of times. Looking at a map, I can already see that Cambridge, Ipswich and Bedford are all reasonably nearby my city. Are those cities any good for game? I've pipelined at uk.match.com since living in Germany and get a fare amount of dates on there, but all London hoes, and a lot of Indian chicks too. How are they outside London? Any good websites for good club intel? Party pics and club nights and things like that? Something like the equivalent of virtualnights.de. I wanna get a good idea of which clubs have the hottest girls and all that.

One thing about the accent...I know guys on here have said the American accent gets you no brownie points and all that, but from my experience (maybe it's because I'm black with a Phila. accent and a tourist and was really high energy) but the accent had the girls that I met extremely giggly and shit. Granted, these are girls I met online who had a chance to get to know me deeper, but almost all of them, when they met me, made constant comments about how it's cool to hear an American accent in real life and not just on TV, or how my accent sounds cool. One American dude even stopped me on the street one time in Angel and was just like whoa it's cool to hear another US accent and where are you from and all that. Maybe those were just rare cases and that'll change once I become a permanent resident of the UK. But that reaction kinda gives me the confidence to approach chicks on the street because I know the accent throws them off and is kind of a DHV. I've lived in the EU a long time and I dress European, but here I am with this American accent. It always comes up in a convo, even chicks I stop on the street just asking for directions. I'm like "thanks for the help" and they kinda linger around a little longer like "so you're from the states then?" trying to come off as blase or nonchalant. Granted these are mostly younger girls, but I like young girls anyway so it's all good. Every time I go to London I get a number or an invite to the pub with just about every chick I open on the street. So friendly and they just leave that window right open for you. I don't know, maybe it's the high of being a tourist and it'll wear off once I've lived there a year or two. But I imagine the novelty will be stronger in smaller cities like Bristol, Leeds, Liverpool and such.

So anyway, thanks in advance guys.

American guys clean up in the UK and Canada. I personally know an American cat who banged out a whole gaggle of Spaniards in Tooting sharing the same flat. I think they were five roommates and he slammed them all.
Having the Yankee ackie is a DHV for sure in the UK. With Manchester, Leeds and what have you, you will be banging all over the place. Shytt, they even love London accents in Manchester, Leeds etc..

Cambridge is a nice place Bedford is a dump and Ipswich can be either or depending on exactly where you are.

London was a mixed bag for me, yes i got a few different flags but I found the dudes are haters. The local girls were indifferent to me and I ended up dating mostly foreigners while I was there. I am contemplating making the same move back to London, simply to be back to all the hot spots around Europe.
I guess the bottom line is that if you are making money you are good!

Post: #5

Dude's are haters all over Europe. But I'm glad to hear confirmation that the accent will increase my appeal even if by a little bit.

@Moma would you say the girls are better looking in London only, or can I score some 8's and above up north in Leeds?

I think you're making the right call. This is a great time to not be in the US (on many levels).

With a job in a different country, I think you would enjoy the experience. Also, being based in the UK means you can make attack moves to places like Sweden, Spain, Italy, and EE with relative ease.

I'm sure you also have people to see in Germany since you used to live there.

Doesn't get much better than that man. Europe is an ideal place for an international playboy to set up shop.

I just hope you will be getting paid in POUNDS. London is super expensive.

Yes Yes and Hell Yes. I was talking about this the other day with some single guy friends who have never left the states. The European community is like one of the last places left on earth where a guy can just play. And after being all over the EU, and getting older, I gotta say I'm not looking forward to having to learn another language. England is super easy to get acclomated to and it's a prime ride out location for everything west. I actually don't like flying so I like the fact that I can take my car across the channel or take the Eurostar and be in Belgium in about 2 hours.

It'll be in $$$ but it's tax free up to $95,000 and everything after that is only taxed federal. I should be ok. I found a couple of places I could rent out at gumtree.com that are reasonably priced. Only thing is logistics... I learned a long time ago that's it's easier and less stressful when you live near the job, but I don't wanna have to get an extra place in London. Cause make no mistake, London is def. where I'll be spending most of my time. I guess I need to go there and check out the trains and ease of travel. Cause I could do Cambridge and be at work in 30 minutes by car and London in one hour by train. Damn, got 99 problems but a bitch ain't one lol.

Man, GO !

I wish I had the opportunity that you have now.

I have an European passport but right now is pretty useless to me since I don't have any professional connections in Europe to find a job.

I second Henc , London is probably the best city location-wise to hit other dope spots in Europe.
It's the perfect setting for an international player.

London is a well connected city and the public transport is generally pretty good.

However don't underestimate the '1 hour journey' to London from any satellite town around it. This is in an ideal scenario, and it's not always a cake walk, bear in mind passenger congestion, train delays, journey to and from the station etc.

Cambridge is a cool city, it's quaint and very traditionally English, it's really nice during summer. It's not very big so could get boring quickly. However there's a large student population which helps.

There is nothing in Ipswich or Bedford for you. Plus Ipswich is miles away from London.

Your main 2nd/3rd tier cities in England are: Manchester, Leeds, Liverpool, Bristol, Birmingham, Newcastle and Nottingham.

I think with an American accent being a black guy in decent shape should be more than fine.

We should do a black guys kill in UK thread...just kidding

I've written data sheets on Manchester and Nottingham. If you want any more UK specific info then shoot.

^ What dk902 said.

Rule of thumb is however long you think a journey will take to and within london, add another half hour.
Another rule of thumb, the more north you go the colder the weather gets, the cheaper living becomes and the more slutty the girls become.

For websites with photo's on it, I would reccomend dontstayin

The Uk is the perfect jump off to Europe being as that air travek, if booked at the right time can be cheaper then the transportation to get to the airport.
Truth I have done a return weekend of london-paris-frankfurt-london for £65!
With regards to driving, ther is some fantastic driving to be done, you really will feel spoiled. However, petrol prices are extortianate.

I think this is a pretty good time to be paid in dollars historically it's the cheapest it,s been for a few years.

I With regards to anamerican accent it seems to go either way. I have a friend who,s an ex-marine who just has to go "yes m'am" and the girls melt, but another who gets no love and if anything condescension. But if it works it works.

Obviously, Living somewher and travelling through is 2 different things, but i'me sure you are well aware of that.

In UK, all the hot women are in London. I've been to Manchester,Birmingham and London, and let me tell you, the first two are nothing like London. London has lots of Eastern European,Russian and Brazilian chicks, but Manchester and Birmingham is full of Asian chicks.

Liverpool has some of the sexiest and friendliest chicks in England, London has lots of very fit women who probably wont talk to you unless you bring your A-game. Cambridge has something of everything. Just remember that if you strike out in LOndon you can always head to the walkabout or rednack tavern and bang a drunken Aussi or kiwi chick.

Where exactly do the hot chicks hang out in Liverpool? I visited Liverpool a couple of months ago, and I was rather disappointed. I went to this huge mall,Liverpool One thinking it would be a good daygame destination, but I was rather disappointed by the quality of women. However, I was in Liverpool for only 6-7 hours, so I might be wrong.

This thread is encouraging. I am also considering the UK (or Switzerland) shift for a year. I have been doing my research and it sounds like British girls are not all that. Can anyone please describe the situation with the British girls? I mean are they fat, obnoxious, yet easy bangs?

I'd be looking to move to London or places close by. I have lived in NYC and I understand that London is even more expensive. Is it just the rent or everything else as well? Also, I know that London's got some big money people out there (Royalty, Russian Mobsters, etc), so how can an American fit in the local situation? Exclusively gaming foreign tourists/college chicas? Going up north as suggested?

Well I was gonna wait until after I officially got there to continue this thread, but fuggit I'm just super excited.

I got the next to last piece of the defense contractor puzzle last night. An official invitation to "join the company" with the final piece being the dotted line I'll sign agreeing to how much money they'll pay me and that I won't make an ass of America over there in the UK.

Anyway thanks for the info. Seems like if I want easy lays I need to head to north England, but if I want quality then London's the place. Actually I was also thinking about getting a room share in both London and Cologne, Germany as that's where I know I can do the most damage. Plus deutsch bahn estimates it's a 4 hour train ride from London St. Pancres to Colonge hbf for only 80 euro. Those are weekend spot numbers lol. So yeah this spring it's gonna be all about calibration to see if I wanna spend most of my time (free) in the UK or on the mainland. Anybody know any good room share websites besides gumtree.com? Any international type of room share websites?

@ BostomBMW The few times I've been to London I was always impressed by the quality actually. I mean, the average british chick outside London is perhaps a little chunky or drinks too much, but look at the club pics on the website dontstayin. Some of those girls are pretty fucking hot IMO. I mean not like EE level hot, but certainly as good as American chicks and more willing to bang than they are. Plus London has hella transplants. Actually it's the best place to meet an English speaking Russian broad. Switzerland to me came off as kinda boring and not a good place for a young person. The few big cities they have sort of still have that small town vibe where there's are not a whole lot of places to go out. Like Vienna. Great historical place but for going out and fucking chicks I'd choose London. Plus, on a personal level, I like fashion and like to go shopping. One of my resolutions is to completely update my wardrobe. London is the best place to do that in Europe.

Not sure if you've already bounced. But if you every plan on moving back to the area stay the HELL away from PG County and Silver Spring.

PG County+Silver Spring= Pussy Siberia.
