Wingmen - they can be a valuable asset to the single guy on the prowl. But do you really need one? Even if you have a lot of game, they can be the Scottie Pippen to your Michael Jordan. Let's take a look at when a wingman is key and when he just becomes a third wheel.
Absolutely
If you're looking to meet a lady at your local singles bar, a wingman can be a lifesaver. When women are out in packs, they can be really intimidating to approach, especially all by your lonesome. In this situation it's better to approach a group of women with your trustee wingman by your side. A good wingman will deflect conversation so that you can get some one-on-one chit-chat going with the lady you really want to talk to, all without being interrupted. A really good wingman can also work in compliments about you to her friends, so if you walk away they can spread the word without you having to toot your own horn.
Definitely Not
Let's say you see a woman by herself at a bar or at the coffee shop. Here's when you don't want a wingman. No women wants to feel like she's being ganged up on. Even if you're with your wingman and you see a woman by yourself you want to approach, it's best to have him lay low and take this one alone. She'll be a lot less defensive and much more responsive talking to just you. But even in this situation a wingman isn't completely useless. If it turns out the woman rejects you, at least he's there to nurture you back into good spirits with a cold beer.
