It is a very difficult task to pick up women in London for several reasons.
1. How can you bring a woman back to your place?
If you meet a woman in a bar from Old Street (eastern part of london), how do you go back with her to your apartment located in Chiswick (western part of london)? If you live in Chiswick, there are no real places to pick up women in the evening. Distance is a major barrier to picking up women in big cities.
2. Impenetrable circle of friends in London:
The most attractive and psychologically stable women are located in the most closed networks of people. You aren’t likely to meet them on their own at the local Starbuck’s coffee shop. You will not find interesting women in public places in London.
3. Women / men ratio:
If you go to ANY London’s nightclubs, the male-to-female ratio will be 7:3. The award went to London club “Fabric” where I counted 11 men and 2 women on a dancefloor. In London lounge bars, I saw a male-to-female ratio of around 7:3 . This means that many women don’t go out in the evening in London.
4. Money, money, money:
You may spend a lot of money for nothing. Taking a cab on your own, paying the nightclub entrance fee, buying some beverages, buying a round… Living in London means spending a lot of money in basic stuff without getting any benefits from it.
Conclusion:
It is not a good idea to pick up women in London by night. When I lived in London, I used to think: “it is too late to find a girl after the sun went down.”
You have the chance to live in a city with many airports and many train stations. You are lucky to live in a city close to four airports and many train stations. Take this opportunity to travel. Heathrow is one of the biggest airports in Europe. It is useless to waste your time in a place where you have such a high ratio of men to women in public places. It is useless to spend money on women living in London. In terms of cost-benefits, I think it may cost less money to meet a woman overseas in a cheap country rather than dating in London. Do your math.
