Spring break is one of those unique American inventions that presents so many opportunities for memorable experiences. And if you’re a guy in college heading to spring break, you’ll be exposed to one of those ultimate adult playground experiences that you’ll remember forever. Spring break presents the opportunity for prime time fun, with high energy, relaxed vibes, and a social playground where college girls are looking to let loose. What could be better?
Of course, some guys enjoy these experiences more than others. Do you want to create amazing experiences for yourself, or do you want to screw it up and let other guys have all the fun?
It’s odd in a way to think of approaching spring break with a clear plan, but if you want to increase your chances of hooking up, or increase the number and quality of hookups, then these tips can help.
If you know what you’re doing, you can have a field day on spring break with the ladies.
It is, in every sense, a target-rich environment—if you know how to aim.
Brush up on your game
No matter what your success rate is with women, you can likely improve your game just by following some of the best pickup artists. We’ll have plenty more articles on this, but now is as good a time as any to do some research and some homework. Understand the importance of confidence, how to open conversations, and how to close the deal.
Also, treat this like a game. Have fun with it! Never put too much importance on one woman or one approach. You’ll never see these women again, so make it a point to open conversations. Talk to peopple. Don’t think about “hitting” on women. Just find ways to talk to them and then take it from there. And if you get rejected, laugh it off and move on to the next opportunity. It’s spring break, so the opportunities are endless. You’ll have more success with this attitude, and hopefully you’ll start developing fearlessness and good habits on approaching women.
I remember a similar situation where I was partying with friends all night, but really didn’t have much success with meeting woman. The bar was clearing out, and there was a woman standing alone near the dance floor. It was clear she couldn’t find her friends. She has a pretty feaky and edgy haircut . . . I pretty much hated it, but she was very cute. So I walked up to her and said, “I love your hair.” She smiled. That was all it took.
Find creative ways to approach them
There are all types of spring break experiences out there, but the most common experience involves spending most of the day at the beach or at the pool, and then heading out at night to the bars or clubs. With that in mind, don’t settle for just hitting on women when you’re out at the bars or clubs. You have to be a lot more creative to increase your odds.
The daytime activities make it so much easier to meet women, or better yet, groups of women. Bring frisbees and volleyballs to the beach, start playing, and then invite others to join. That’s probably the easiest way to start conversations and get to know people.
If you see a woman you really like, don’t obsess over her. Go up and talk to her. If you’re not feeling it, start talking to one of her friends, and you’ll have plenty of time to get to know her if you’re in with her friend group. Opening a group is something every guy should understand, and spring break with the perfect spot to work on this. If you want to meet someone, the best way can be to meet one of her friends first.
Of course, your crew should have plenty of beer, drinks and food that you can share with all the beauties you meet and hang out with at the beach.
More beer, or more girls?
Ask yourself this simple question . . . are you trying to get as wasted as possible over spring break, or are you trying to meet and hook up with as many women as possible? There’s no wrong answer, but if you’re obsessed with partying and drinking till you pass out, you’ll just be hung over listening to stories of your friends hooking up the night before while you were in a drunken haze.
If you want to take advantage of all those pretty and horny college girls crammed into your srping break destination, then you have to be on your game. Being too drunk, too stupid or too obnoxious won’t do the drink. Have fun, get a great buzz, and then unleash your best game.
Drinking Games
The one exception to the previous bit of advice has to do with drinking games . . . IF you’re playing with women you want to hook up with. If not, then don’t waste your time.
Alcohol is the ultimate social lubricant, and these games help create that fun atomosphere that puts everyone in the mood to hook up. Of course, you don’t want to take this too far . . . you’ll screw things up of you get too drunk or she gets too drunk.
Have an end game
Think about ways you can close the deal even before you head out and meet someone. Do you and your friends have a cool rental where you can bring back a party? Are there other bars you can take her to after you’ve spent some time together and the first bar or club?
Remember, just by taking her to another bar or a place to eat starts to make her see the two of you as a couple . . . at least in the moment. It’s a lot easier to get her to come back to your hotel or house if she’s already followed you to another bar.
Get out of your comfort zone
Spring break is meant to be enjoyed, so make the most of it.
And it’s about more than just beaches and beer. It’s about that moment, rare and flickering, when time feels wide open. When you can try things. Talk to strangers. Take chances. Be a version of yourself that isn’t constrained by expectations.
