Anyway, if I asked you where to meet women this time of year, your knee-jerk reaction might be to give the expected answer.
"Well, Captain Obvious, they're either going to Ft. Lauderdale, Cancun, Lake Havasu or South Padre Island."
And that's fair. After all, it's what everyone probably talked about doing back in your college days, and what MTV has led us to believe everyone IS doing every year for over thirty years now.
But hold on a second.
Simple logic says that there are more "hotties" out there than those four beach towns can possibly contain.
After all, not every girl has the financial means to do the stereotypical Spring Break thing.
On top of that, a whole lot of them aren't exactly "party girls" anyway.
I don't need to remind you that the vast majority of them are either beyond their college years or never even went at all.
But Spring Break is a phenomenon that goes far beyond college, doesn't it?
It seems like everyone looks forward to taking a few days or even a whole week off around this time of year.
So...assuming you're not exactly up for the stereotypical college experience in a stereotypical location, here are some places you're surprisingly likely to find hot, sexy women enjoying their vacation:
1) Downtown
Here's the thing. Just like not every woman is into partying, not every woman is up for going to the beach either.
Some women prefer the excitement of hitting the big city during Spring Break, especially if they're not FROM a big city.
As stereotypical as it sounds, they'll likely do lots of shopping and so forth since they're on vacation and in "spending mode". So you'll be sure to find beaucoup women in the shopping districts.
And because they're not working they'll be less stressed out and therefore easier to meet.
2) National Parks
We've actually spent several spring breaks in Big Bend National Park here in Texas. My direct observations from the last time we were there are probably why this sub-heading made the list.
And truly, anywhere there's a reasonably cool place to go hiking and explore the outdoors that's NOT a beach, you'll find women there enjoying Spring Break. It doesn't have to be a National Park per se.
But I have to tell you. We saw van load after van load of spunky, adventurous cuties at Big Bend...all dressed in their "Lara Croft" gear and ready for fun, maybe even for college credit.
And we also noticed that there were plenty of guys who were smart enough to figure out that they were every bit at the "place to be" as any dude down at South Padre.
They capitalized.
3) Kid Places
Are you at the place in your life where "hot mommies" sound more intriguing than girls who are probably still too young to drink legally?
Well, join the crowd...who if they know anything at all will hit McDonald's sometime mid-afternoon during Spring Break.
After all, even elementary schools take Spring Break off.
That means that all of those mommies have kids at home all week long, and since it's still probably kind of cold outside they'll go stark raving nuts if they don't get them out of the house somehow.
If "Macca's" isn't your thing, no worries. Use your imagination and think like a mom. Where would you take kids during Spring Break if you HAD to?
4) Volunteering
Plenty of high-quality women are the more "socially conscious" types who'd rather spend their Spring Break helping others.
Organizations like Habitat For Humanity and others definitely run Spring Break programs, and they're well attended.
If you happen to favor church girls, I can tell you with reasonable certainty that you'll be far better off turning your focus in this direction. If you head to Havasu you'll be barking up the wrong tree for sure.
5) Wherever YOU Are
Here's another particularly interesting note from Big Bend.
Yeah, we saw lots of college-aged cuties who were there with their classmates. BUT...we saw even more women who were there with their boyfriends.
Check it out. Guys who already had a great woman in their life got their heads in gear and planned the National Park road trip with their hunnies.
Smart move. A huge, natural resource like that all but ensures plenty of "alone time" and jacks the potential for naughty deeds outdoors sky high.
Plus, all that physical activity and shared experience can be easily chalked up as quality "get to know each other" opportunities.
Well played, gentlemen. Well played.
And did I mention that these guys' girlfriends tended to be super hot?
I don't think it's just because I favor women in tank tops and zip-off pants, either. The cuties really did seem to go for guys who took them on real, live adventures.
Something to think about there.
But really, if you've got a terrific woman in your life make sure to plan a Spring Break escapade of some kind, even if it's last minute. She'll love making the most of the time off by being with you.
National Parks are great for that this time of year, but you could make it almost anywhere, really...except perhaps Ft. Lauderdale or South Padre Island
This Is Your Dating Playground
Now that you've hopefully begun to build the habit of continually scoping out your metro area with women in mind, by no means should you limit your reconnaissance missions to discovering places for first meetings.
Start thinking "out of the box" and consider how your new-found skill could serve you in other ways.
If you can do this, you can quite literally begin to make your entire metro area one big playground for you and for the women who are fortunate enough to share your company.
For example, train your mind to identify quintessentially perfect places around town for first kisses to happen.
Then, when you're with a woman, make sure your plan accounts for being at such a location precisely when you anticipate might be the right time.
For example, if you know the sun is setting at 7.45p, make sure you are there RIGHT THEN.
Or, if you know of a great place to hear some live music, and you know a great place to make the first kiss happen is only a short walk away, coordinate accordingly.
Discover several such places and commit them to memory, and before you know it you'll NEVER be at a loss as to when to kiss a woman for the first time.
How's that for a way to vacuum up a particularly messy "sticking point" before you ever slip on it again?
Here in San Antonio, there's a certain small archway that leads from the Riverwalk to another historic section called La Villita. The lighting is perfect and there's almost never anyone else around.
Elsewhere in town, there's that old-school bar at the Havana Riverwalk Inn that's best accessed by a particularly slow-moving elevator lined with Persian rugs. Nice.
Next, take this manner of thinking about your city and apply it in other ways.
Can you creatively adapt the "mind trigger" concept?
What if you knew at least ten cool places to grab a bite that are open after midnight?
What if you knew five or six killer places that are open on Mondays?
And how about if you knew exactly where to park downtown...at different hours of the day?
And what if you knew exactly where they only take cash and not credit cards?
What if you had discovered at least ten places in your metro area that are virtually unknown but practically guaranteed to provide a fun adventure for very little if any cost?
And...what if you had already scoped out several perfect places to share a quiet moment together...but where she would STILL feel safe and secure with you?
The list can go on and on...
Like, what if you got to know the owners or managers of the top four or five places in town where dates have been all but guaranteed to go well in the past?
If you did so, what kind of deals could you swing or surprises could you arrange?
What level of mutual trust could you build? What if you arranged things with them so that when you're with a woman you could simply walk out without being confronted with a bill?
Really, when you get right down to it, this entire discussion is about being a few chess moves ahead at all times.
And what if you knew of exactly three phenomenal places for a "day trip" that were a 1.5 or two hour drive from town? How would that power up your ability to make second and third "meetings" a slam dunk?
What if you knew which bands and shows were coming...and when? And what if you knew when the home team was in town?
Truly, the more you explore, the more you know. Sooner than you think, it really can start feeling as if your entire city is your "dating playground", responding to you as if at your command.
This is powerful stuff.
And as always, it seems, this again relates to deserving what you want. The quality of the output is a direct measure of what you put into it.
Yet, as logical as it all sounds, very few guys have the presence of mind to operate as masters of their domain like this.
Even fewer would ever think to mark every cool place in town on their smartphones, just so that:
1) No key location is ever forgotten or confused, and
2) Planning and execution literally became scientifically infallible.
Nice.
Close your eyes and start imagining the effect on women that such total mastery over your metro area would have.
Feel the confidence it would give you and recognize the comfort level your sheer competence would give her.
The sky is truly the limit when it comes to all of this.
But simply taking the first step and leaning to stake out your town so that the "mind triggers" start working to your advantage can and will change your life IMMEDIATELY.
Everything else we've discussed today is just icing on the cake.
