Ok, you’ve probably heard that Laundromats are great
pick up places, better than a singles bar – that’s because
they are! Maybe not better, but certainly a great
alternative that’s just as good. You can pretend your
entire motive is to wash clothes, and that you’re not on
the make. The woman won’t have that feeling like you’re
just trying to pick her up if you strike up a chat here –
even if that’s exactly what you’re doing!
What really helps you out here is that women like to
talk, and they love to give advice – especially to
“helpless” men! First of all, pick a good Laundromat –
meaning one where you’ve seen lots of attractive women who
aren’t dragging a bunch of kids with them or wearing
wedding rings. Basically, pick one in a neighborhood with
lots of young, single women – they’ll be using the
Laundromat close to home. And don’t worry if you already
have a washing machine at home, it’s worth the trip out
and a little change to meet women! If you meet someone
that eventually makes it back to your place and discovers
you have a machine at home, just tell her it was broken,
or better yet, be honest and say you went to the
Laundromat hoping to meet someone, and that was the best
decision you ever made because you met her.
But let’s back up, first you’ve got to meet her! So go
to the Laundromat with your basket of clothes – no
detergent. Make sure you don’t bring anything a woman
might find disgusting – like really dingy, holey
underwear, badly stained T-shirts, or socks that used to
be white but now look like you walked through mud in them.
However, something slightly stained won’t hurt – like a
grass stain on your jeans or chocolate sauce on a shirt.
You can use this later to help with the conversation
Go in, plop your laundry basket down on a machine near
one or more ladies you wouldn’t mind picking up, and start
digging through the basket like you’re looking for
something. Then say out loud to yourself, “Oh, man, I
forgot the detergent!” Laundromats usually have a vending
machine selling detergent, so go over and start browsing.
Act like you don’t know which one to pick, then go to the
woman you want to chat up and say, “Excuse me, they don’t
have my regular detergent here and I don’t know what to
use. Can you help me pick one out?” Women can’t resist an
opportunity to give advice, and they love the idea that
men might be helpless when it comes to some chores, like
laundry. This is where, if you’ve got the grass stain or
whatever, you can bring that up and say you don’t know
what to do to get it out. She may come over and show you
how to rub detergent on the stain, etc. After you get the
detergent, go back to your machine, fumble around, and go
back to her and say, “I’m sorry to keep bothering you, but
these machines are different than what I’m used to and I
don’t know what setting to use. Could you give me a hand?
I’m sorry to seem so helpless.” Milk the helpless bit for
all it’s worth. Ask her how much detergent to use, what
colors you can wash together, and what temperature to set
the water at – whatever you can think of.
Also, if the Laundromat doesn’t have a vending machine
for detergent, ask the woman if you can borrow some of
hers. Insist on paying her back by paying for her washing
or dryer use. Either way, once you’ve got her talking,
keep chatting about clothes as long as that stays
interesting – once it starts to get lame and boring, ditch
the topic! Make sure and introduce yourself and get her
name, then start asking her about herself. Find out where
she works, what she does for fun, what movies or bands she
likes, what her favorite types of food are. You can use
that info as she’s packing up her clothes to leave – Say,
“Thanks so much for the help. I’d love to pay you back by
taking you out for some Italian food (or going to hear
that band you like, or see that movie you said you’d been
dying to see.)”
And one last thing, be ready with an explanation of why
you’re using this particular Laundromat if it’s not in
your neighborhood, just in case she asks. Make sure you
pick one that’s not too far from home, and just say the
one in your neighborhood was full and you didn’t want to
wait for a machine. Now grab some change, a pile of dirty
clothes, and get ready to bag that babe!
