I started doing magic before I started doing...um dating girls. It might just be a coincidence but every girl I've ever dated has been interested in me because I was "unique" "funny" "nice"... So I suppose a whole third of the initial attraction came from the magic, that's the unique part. (I'm leaving out good looking not because I think I'm ugly, but because I think a lot of ugly guys get stellar girls so it's not the most important thing) Everytime I meet a girl that I end up going out with she is always interested in at least a couple of tricks. It's like if you met a girl who ate fire for a living. You'd think it was cool and probibly make you think of her a little more often because of it. Magic isn't magic. It's just something you do. I'm sure that some girls would love to date a tight rope walker, it's just something else that makes you you. Being a magician is just something that girls don't see a lot of everyday, so when they do they want to see more and learn more about you...like how well you kiss,,,,hopefully.

Why does it seem as if all the guys responding here seem to think it is the magic that is working and the women who seem to disagree?

Stop dilluting yourselvs guys. Every woman who has posted disagrees with you. Try to learn.

I've never dated any of the girls who post here. Girls are all different. I date the ones who don't have handles on magic websites. They seem to think it's more interesting. I have never done a magic trick that has picked up a girl. I never think that magic is the thing that does it. But the girls I do end up in a relationship with ALL tell me that it was one of the things that made them remember me. No magic will not get a loser a date. It will give a decent guy a leg up on another decent guy who is boring.

The same thing that wins an audience in a performance can win a girl...great performance. Will take great performance to keep her too. Just so I don't fan the flames too much..to me a great performance is sincere.

Magic can absolutly set you apart from the other guys but the secret is to start off strong and as you go along make the converstation be less and less about the magic until its just pure conversation no card no coins just you and her talking.

I will fess up and admit I picked up magic for meeting the ladies, but never really got to know a girl by first showing her a trick. Only played with it during moments where there's time to kill, for a few good laughs/smiles.
What really did work for me though, would be performing for kids, with the ladies looking. Somehow that really sets off good feelings.
The better half frankly told me she was more impressed by the effort to entertain, then the actual effect, and a david blaine/intense persona just spooks her instead of putting her at ease. That's just one lady's opinion.


thanks y'all

WOW really? I mean if you feel that magic will get you a girl, great try it see if it works. But if you as a person are not of good caliber, no matter how much magic you know you will never keep that girl.
Women of all ages love CONFIDENCE period. 4 out of 5 women will tell you that. (COSMO REFRENCE)
Most magicians are good around people and know how to act and talk to people. That shows Confidence.
A lot of us magi's are humorous
I have yet to meet a WOMAN who thought of me as a dork. And yes prior to being married, magic alowed me to meet ALOT of women. It didn't bring them to me like hypnotized slaves, but they saw me as a creative, funny, CONFIDENT, diffrent and Good LOOKING guy(i threw the last one in). That in turn made them want to meet ME. I don't go up to girls in the bars and just show them a trick. I have used it to break the ice. At a party if I saw a girl I wanted to meet I made sure that if I was performing for buddies I would have her assit. There the ice is broken you have gotten her name and have included her in there magical experience. After wards then I would talk to her so forth and so on. But magic alone wont give you a great longterm relationship. But I don't see why the anger or the claims that it is wrong to use magic for that. I mean come on seriously.
Now I'm not like some people here who I have read that say they only do tricks "AT WORK" for tables with cute girls. That is right out STUPID and I don't think you should have a job there. When I worked magic at the restaurants I did go to more tables with women, but that was women of all ages and races. Only because of the above statement. They are more inclined to story telling and effects then most men are. But to say that you as a man who knows how to do a few things of wonder CANNOT use it to show women you have an intrest in is just wrong. Just don't rely on magic, its only an icebreaker. IMHO..

Oh dear. Magic is a good way to break the ice, if you are not formally performing. But to actually meet and get to know people, it is not the be all and end all.

They have to like you, not just because you can do a few amazing things.

I hope noone has really got into magic just to meet women!!!

And I agree 100% my statement is for the performer who would otherwise be shy to talk to a female.

FUNNY STORY- my friend is a magician at a comedy club so since people are their to laugh he can pretty much get away with any rude, crude, off color joke when he performs at tables. Recently he performed for a group of rowdy married woman with the exception of one rowdy single woman. So he walks up starts doing his routines
and he looks at the girl and said "you know what you should do?, f*** a magician" now that takes some sponge balls, but the funny part about it is that it worked!!!!!!!!

After getting off stage at a comedy club many years, I was sitting with the other talent sipping a gingerale, when this women came up to me and asked if I did magic in the bedroom.
My whole life I had been waiting for some thing like that. I felt like Bond, James Bond.

Magic and Girls - 2 differences I have found. 1) I understand how magic works, 2) It is okay to do magic tricks on the street.

When performing to girls actually to anyone...personality will make them attracted to you without any effort. I try not to overdo magic. I will talk to them like normal people when I am not doing formal shows. I always have a soft spot when performing to girls. Tend to always wanting to get their numbers. but, as much as possible, I do not really wanna try to do magic to meet people. I want to let the magical aura surrounding me even I'm not performing.

This quality was in Dai Vernon as stated by Lewis Ganson in Dai Vernon's book of magic" book and the same remark was made by Dai Vernon about Hofsinzer on the revelationds DVD volume 1&2

Did your wife ever find out about the lady you met at the comedy club?

It's pheromones man. You can blow every trick and the girl will still like you if you are giving off the right pheromones. Not much you can do about it except maybe buy some sex pheromone cologne.

But it also doesn't hurt to make suggestive coments during your magic like, "What does THAT remind you of?", as you show her just about anything pointy. And, "Hey,I'm rich. Let's leave"

I see a lot of negative opinions.. but the thing is you patter or your magic is simply not congruent with meetin and entertaining girls..

I do the Derren Browns Zamiels rose..let me tell you - IT impresses to the the point where they invariably want to meet again..this leads to talking etc. Women ove artists and magic is a rare art..They also love a man with passion - when you are pasisonate about your magic and life that reaches dep inside her..takling about dreams and desires..

If you tried a 2 card monte on a woman and expect a reaction then you are doing the wrong magic..try Paul Harris' Deep astonishment and Twilight Angels, Derren Browns Zamiel Rose for starters.

All I can sayis is sparks interest and works wonders for me..maybe its better (for me) if you guys don't use it!
