If you can't get a date in your native language than good luck stumbling twice as awkward as regular through your L2.

The language that I recommend is that of 'confidence'. As a non IE language you may run into some trouble but it is well worth the time invested, you can practice it with over 7 billion people so there is no excuse ;)

Although a good language to learn after confidence is Tagalog. I've met more Tagalog speakers in my area then that of any other language and most Filipinas are pretty easy on the eyes.

For example, if a non-Spanish speaking American went to Latin America could/would
he have just as much success as a Spanish speaker? If a French speaking American went to France
would/could he fail just as badly as a non-French Speaking American?    

I'm very interested in hearing an answer to this.

1) Find the right woman.

2) Learn her language.

That seems to me like a much more efficient method and worthwhile endeavour than spending months learning a language *just in case*.

I'm a happily married family guy so I don't view languages as a tool for picking up women, but there are
definitely females out there who love to hear a foreign man speak their language. With some of the less-
commonly studied languages, even a basic knowlege can create a good impression. I'm working at A1 level
in Hungarian and Serbian and I've had attention from women on the strength of that.

Last year I was in a bar when I overheard a group of girls speaking German. I walked straight over,
introduced myself and got along fabulously with them, despite me being double the age of some of them. If I'd
been looking to get laid that night, I may well have succeeded. But if I had approached them in English, my
chances would have been around zero. Just another bloke nearing middle age, out on the pull.

Of course, many women won't care much either way, but with those who do, knowledge of their language
gives you an entry point.
