Recently this girl that i've liked for a long time, I told her I liked her and obviously

she turned me down saying "im glad you will always be a good FRIEND to me". I read some articles by david and sloan

and now I know why. So just for fun I thought hrmm ill try something new. So since I come in contact with her a lot

everyday, I started just ignoring her like just not starting conversations with her, if she would say my name I

would act like I didn't hear it, if she asked a question I would keep it short leaving her question unanswered but

in a smooth way. After I started doing this I noticed she tries to get my attention now by calling my name etc. Am I

right in doing this? Is there anything else I can do to turn my mistake around and give me the upper hand?

The

one and only,

I don't think you made a

mistake, you were being honest and that's a good quality. At least now, you know how she feels and she knows how

you feel.

From what I've read in this forum by others, I take it people want what they can't have. Do you

have any girl that you can be seen with while this girl is around? Although that's playing games, something I

despise, but it seems to work in some situations.

I always start off my relationships as friends. What gets

my attention when it comes to men is a great sense of humor. And I have to have something in common with the guy.



And one final note... Don't frown. You never know who is falling in love with your smile.

Indeed your right about the hanging with another girl thing, I hang out with a lot of girls just as friends and I

had a girl shout I love you (name) (playfully, not serious) behind me and she heard it then later on she kept trying

to get my attention;-) but I wouldn't let her muahaha

them? If so what did you do to make it work?

Sheesh, I recently told a female

friend I liked her and she jumped my bones. On the other hand, I've confessed love to women I had a sexual

relationship with and they a) ran away as fast as they could or b) took advantage of my new found weakness. So,

there are no hard 'n fast rules in love 'n relationships. You gotta learn how to improvise for the moment at

hand.

Blondie, you have made some great points. One of the best posts a women has

made around here. Short and to the point.


Too many of these youngsters are looking for magic answers.

They have been given much insight from many people that post here. It's up to them to discern the truth from the

BS, and put it into practice.

I'm not sure what you mean by "rare" example, but I've told many women I really liked them,

had a great friendship and later that friendship blossomed into something more. Not everyone is looking for true

love or going "steady." Lots of women, especially younger women, just want to have a good time, hang out and hop in

the sack from time to time. Being friends is one of the best ways to start. If you're meant to be together it will

happen. If not, you still have a friend and good times to remember. You can't do anything to force the situation.

You cannot "make" anyone feel anything. You can only give them reasons to feel

one way or another and then let them decide.

If you want to be viewed as boyfriend material, you have to act

like boyfriend material without seeming like you are only interested in that one person.

Ignoring her may help,

but you don't want to seem rude or petulant. Just be a calm, confident man who lives his own life.

She'll

either get the message and change her tune, or she won't. Your life shouldn't be ruined if she doesn't change

her mind.

Learn from this experience.

Friends can and do fall in love. It happens all the time. But the

more you try to make it happen, the less likely it will.

AMEN- ive had many good relationships with women who

started as friends. in fact the best loves of my life were friends. however keep in mind Sex does ruin

friendships.
maybe next time instead of saying "i like you" maybe give her a flower or something

like that. Actions speak louder than words sometimes. it could have been the way you said it.
if it

doesnt work out than oh well. its her loss

Im going to completely ignore

her for a week, she is like begging for my attention now I can feel the power! I was in class one day and she was

like don't forget to bring in food for the can food drive (name) all you need is 15 bla bla and I was like yea..

and I turned away and talked to someone else then shes like whats wrong? and then someone turns and shes like he

hates me now:-) Ill keep this going and maybe if I keep it up long enough she will want me so bad she will beg and

plead. muahaha the power! oh and by the way David DeAngelo RULES! He's funny and he boosts your level of confidence

Just be careful that your plan doesn't backfire on

you. Given that situation, I'm not sure if I would completely ignore her... I would certainly avoid initiating any

conversations with her, but if she decides to talk to you, by all means try not to be a jerk! You should be in a

great mood, be overly happy, but don't drag the conversation on. End it sooner than she'd expect. Make her want to

become part of your life, not the other way around. Try not to have many moments with her, but the ones you DO have

with her, blow her out of her mind. Every time she thinks of you from then on, she will think only good things, THEN

she will be under your control.

DeMoKiLL
11-02-2004, 09:17 PM
ok ill tune it down a little

bit and pay a little bit more attention to her, see if the 4 days so far did anything:-D. Ill keep conversations to

a minimum and the ones that we do have will be strictly cut to relationship stuff, as stated in DYD, don't ever

have an intelligent conversation

TRock
11-02-2004, 09:58 PM
no you can have intelligent

conversation but not in demokill's current situation. but honestly demokill this is one-itis. you're best strategy

is to pick up other chicks preferably better looking than her and rub it in her face. or you might decide this new

chick is a better option for you.

Snoopy
11-02-2004, 11:02 PM
I agree with the one-itis. Just

keep her in the back of your mind and go on with the rest of your life... if something happens, it will happen, if

not, then that's why you've been looking for other targets!

everything. Like jealousy, people get so caught up in making someone jealous that they overlook/block out the other

result ... it either brings them back, ORRRRRR it pushes them away forever. Is she worth the risk of

losing? If the answer is yes, have fun, and continue playing. :wave: And always remember, the next one that

walks onto your most desired list, maybe somewhere near, watching you, while you're being a jerk to this girl (or

her friends), so, be a good jerk, and understand that if she's not laughing while you're at it, you're not doing

too well. :run:

Deangelo says once you're in

LJBF land to move on. You can turn the situation around, but it takes a lot of work. There are many more women out

there.

It sounds like you're putting too much importance on a particular outcome with women. That

immediately puts her in the position of power because she is the one doing the chosing.

Don't ignore her,

bust her balls in a funny way, demonstrate that you could care less if she's interested in you or not. Date other

women. If she sees that you have a life and are in demand, her opinion might change and she might move you from the

LJBF part of her brain into the "possible mate" part. But if you're dating other women, you may not care if this

particular one goes out with you or not.

Yoel
11-03-2004, 10:58 AM
One-itis, as others already said.

Go on with your life, she'll notice and eventually miss your attentions, or maybe not, so who cares, you'll be

going out with other women by that time won't you? :)

11-03-2004, 12:20 PM
it is a one-itis, ill be

willing to put in the work to turn it around but like today she didn't say anything she just whispered to a guy and

told him that I was mad at her then he like asked me, I just played it off and said ill tell you some other time, he

asked me again I said it doesn't matter, forget about it, and he didn't ask me again.

DeMoKiLL
11-03-2004, 12:23 PM

ignoring her until she tries to get my attention in a drastic way and then all the meantime hang out with other

girls? Or should I start talking to her again forgetting about her making a move?

Bruce
11-03-2004, 12:59 PM
OK, I'll throw in my 2 cents worth

here. Rather than say vague stuff like "I like you" which can be taken as "Jeez, I sure am one lonely MF", say

stuff like "Hey, you got your hair cut; looks great!" or "Very nice dress" or whatever. The trick is being "real"

spontaneous etc etc. If you do it right, you can really give the girl a buzz without sticking you neck out in the

least. You remain a mystery. Maybe you are already in a commited relationship. You are just letting the gal know

you notice and appreciate her without saying you *need* her for some agenda of your own. You have to be cool about

it though. If you hang around waiting for her to "respond" to your "technique", you blow the whole thing. The key

is to "appreciate" rather than "need". Same goes with being helpful. If it is obvious you just want some nooky and

are not really a naturally helpful guy, you might just as well tell her how lonely and horny you are.

Snoopy
11-03-2004, 01:00 PM
I don't think there's anything

you can SAY to completely brain wash her into being attracted to you. You've listened to David DeAngelo, have you

not? The words are a mere 7% of the total communication expressed. Hopefully you haven't made her too upset by

"ignoring" her. I think you should just drop that act and be who you normally are around school - with one

exception: don't initiate any conversations with her. Wait for HER to do it. I've tried the ignoring thing before

when I was in high-school, and when I had one-itis over this one girl. I liked the "attention" I was receiving, but

believe me, I didn't figure out until later that it was the bad kind of attention... and not the good. If you keep

this up, you'll be labelled as "too moody" for her - that's what happened to me, and it's taken me 2 years to rid

myself of that label (I'm still friends with her).

On a side note.. if you could maybe group your posts into 1

big one, would save us a lot of trouble having to keep scrolling down to read more! Thanks :)

DeMoKiLL, I

suggest you re-read David DeAngelo's stuff, and always remember, YOU have the edge because YOU have the -mones

working for you - combine those along with the you that made her friends with you in the first place, and you can't

go wrong. There's no quick fix to anything.

11-03-2004, 01:01 PM
How should I

answer why im "mad" at her?
Something allong the lines of telling her she is being silly and reading too

much into things. Don't break the tension by acting nicey-nice all of a sudden though.

Act aloof by talking to

her, but only in a very casual way. So talk back when she talks to you, but keep your outward enthusiasm about

talking to her to a relatively low level (so cut things short). You can initiate conversations aswell, but stay

casual and don't get gushy. Don't be rude, and be funny and make jokes around her (take the piss out of her

slightly aswell).

Easy enough? ;)

DeMoKiLL
11-03-2004, 01:09 PM
alright, but idk when she did

talk to me I kind of just acted like I was ignoring her, so calling her silly may be a bit weird because it was

obvious. Oh well ill try it, after a while in my life, I don't really care what happens or not. She just is that

special one to me, more for her personality then her looks. But hey she is good looking so she has a lot of guys

going for her as well so I have to do something that makes me above them.

to more david deangelo I concluded that, that would be the best thing to say because it would make me look more

selective by basically saying, you can't have me that way (making her want it even more). Do you agree this would

turn the whole thing around and put me in the seat of power?

By the way, you

Captain explained

the exact meaning of "being aloof". Moreover, if she goes wtf, why did you ignore me yesterday (your fault :P), just

If you don't get yourself

and from the looks of it you just keep digging and digging. So stop. Take a break. Go enjoy your other hobbies for a

while and try not to think about her for a few days. Then, when you do come back to think about her, try to see what

YOU are like from HER eyes, or at least from a perspective other than your own. Sometimes mixing up reality with

what you think is all it takes to ruin something good.

You'll totally look like a

tool. I wouldn't buy that for a second. Just let it go, man... (the comment, that is) Just the fact that you

brought it up again shows that you care. Think about it. I've jokingly told people I had a crush on them, and I

never mentioned it again because I was, in fact, joking. Of course, they knew I was...but I wouldn't have

mentioned it again even if they didn't. Why? I didn't really like them...

I hope you take a moment to

process that. If you take the time to bring up the subject, it shows you care about the subject.

If you want to

show disinterest in her, you could go to her with girl advice for other women. The problem: you must

actually have a girl problem to go to them with. People will see through a 'made-up' situation. Think about all

of those movies where they say, "I have this friend...I like her but don't know what to do," you'll sound like

you're talking about her or something. Problem #2: If you like her and are solely talking to her for advice to get

to her, it will kill you inside if she's so enthusiastic and helpful instead of your hopeful reaction of held-back

jealousy.

I don't like to be negative and take down your hopes, man, but your best bet is to be a friend and

move on to other people. You can't change her mind over night, so the only way you're going to prove her

otherwise is to have her realize that you are the one she should want. Now, the problem I have is that I

can't do that. If I cross the line into really liking someone, I can't go back and be okay. I had the patience

once to live with my feelings while being friends and got the girl after 5 months, but it drove me insane for

that time (funny how it was worth it when it actually happened). I'm in a similar situation right now, and since I

don't want to go through what I did before, I'm trying to just get away from it. Unfortunately, I can't...so

I'm making the best of it. I wish you better luck than me, man, but your best bet is to move on to other things

and maybe she'll change her mind.

Hello DeMoKiLL,



well, as I am likely one of the less successfull members regarding woman, I won't give you any advice ( you would

probably not benefit too much adhering it ) but here is what I think and believe:

Stop playing Games !!!!!!!

( not meant offensive )

If I got it right you have known her for a relatively long time. You learned to

appreciate her personality and began to feel more than just friendship and physical attraction for her. You showed

your feeling ( perhaps in an too friendshiplike way ? ), told her about it and she turned you down. I don't know if

she was bad to you in other ways or if she turned you down in an inappropriate, rude or insulting way, but I guess

you would have told us. So taking all that, it must have been hard for you, but nothing someone could blame your

friend for.
It is absolutely understandable and ok that you feel kind of pissed of at times and it is also ok when

you don't hide it from her. But.... stop gaming!
I know honesty, integrity and respect are qualities that help to

keep relationships alive and make them longlasting and fortunate, but only in rare cases they cause people to fall

in love.
You both are far from the usual firs steps of superficial flirting and playing games ( which is good and

funny, it simply belongs to human mating rituals ). But your relationship is already deeper, so many of the things

you should take into account when getting to know a new interesting girl does not apply to your problem.
Stop

acting in certain ways for tactical reasons! Be yourself! If you feel hurt by her.. show it ( or to put it in better

words ... don't hide it). You really like her, so if you do feel like beeing friendly and charming to her or

whatever ... damn... than do it !!!! There has to be room for that honesty, more than ever regarding that you have

known her for more than just a few weeks!!Integrity, sincerity and honesty does not show through what you say but

how you say it and with which intention you said it.
If she is really worth it she will recognize your value (

perhaps as a boyfriend, perhaps "only" as a close, trustworthy friend ). She definitely likes you! The whispering to

the other guy, that you would be mad at her, and trying to get your attention seeing you ignoring her clearly show

that she is caring.
Only god knows what more might be behind it, but if you want to get going a decent

relationship with the potential of lasting more than a few month ( and most of what you wrote in this thread tell me

you want more ) the only way to get that from this ( or another ) girl is to be sincere. It was not her fault that

she didn't fall in love until now ( perhaps it will happpen ), so if there is nothing else what she did wrong in

your opinion, you should apologize. I don't say that you have to tell her the whole truth about your reasons fro

beeing mad at her. Telling her of having been in a bad mood for whatever reason would not be a lie. She will

understand it ( if she feels that you are sincere and not playing stupid games and tactics ). Perhaps you could even

tell her the whole story. But I think even these two examples of what to say to her are nothing you

need.
You are the onlyperson who knows what is the right thing to do. Listen to your instinct and your

feelings when you are with her. Be open to the signals and trust yourself, then you will know what to say and how

to say it!
If your "special one" has the emotional potential of falling in love with you ( not your tactics and

sayings but you and what you are ), she will do it. But therefor you have to be you at first and show her

your potential, beeing reliabel and sincere! If she has not that potential, then nothing in the world will change

it.
Perhaps clever seducing tactics, body language and certain behaviour ( you got more than enough advice about

that ) will be more successfull. But eventually you want someone feeling appealed to your deeper personality ( which

is the second step after first datings and the more superficial attraction, but as I said, IMO you are simply beyond

that with her) and not your seducing tactics, even if they work.
If she is really your "special one" you will be

successfull and if not :

You can stand up every morning, look into the mirror and think " I fell in love with

this girl, I was myself and didn't hide it. I did the right things and I did what I believed in. She didn't return

my feeling... ok things like that happen... it's hard but I will go on and find my real " special one" ! "

You

can only grow from that experience !!!!
No person in the world, especially not your special one, is worth betraying

or humiliating yourself.
And there is definitely no need to do it!

Good luck and make the best out of it for

you !

Moreover, if she

goes wtf, why did you ignore me yesterday (your fault :P), just turn it around. "Why, I didn't think you'd care

that much. Are you saying you're in love with me? Because, that's a shame, you pretty much killed your chances

with me."I hope people remember that indifferent people won't care if they 'lost' their chances and will

laugh in your face if you accuse them of liking you. I know because I just did it as a joke once and regretted it

immensely shortly afterwards after I got the equivalent of a rejection and didn't even mean it.

-I think you

have a secret admirer.
--(sarcastically) I think you're just projecting. *Laughs*

--You don't know what

'projecting' is? It's a psychology term. I'll explain it, but remember that I'm just joking. Do not take it

seriously. *Explains projection* (Note: projection is when you project your feelings onto someone else, e.g. saying

someone likes a person when in reality you do)

it is not me. Sorry, buddy.

saying "we love you" I was having a great old time just laughing talking with my friend next to me, and she was like

a few seats away from me and she like saw me having like a great time, and I wasn't paying any attention to her

(but why should I?). And then on the bus home she kept trying to say hi to me, and I just looked at her and went

back to what I was doing. Then in class I think she wanted to get my attention so she just started talking to me

even though she was at the other side of the room and is like are you mad at me. Then the next day she asks the guy

etc. I didn't really make it seem like I was doing it to be mean or anything like by saying 'is that a mosquito

I get your "tell the

really unpleasant moments in the future. Besides, we are not trying to make him lie, just not open his mind

entirely.

Back to the topic:
looks like it's not a big deal after all, you were exaggerating it a bit,

good for you. So it was only a day, just tell her you were not in the mood of socializing and then play aloof.

k, she passed me in the hallway

I made eye contact then turned away and looked again as she said hi. Then in class she was like why are you mad at

me? I said, im not. Then she is like why are you ignoring me, I said I wasn't and she was like im sorry if im not

as funny as the other people you talk to instead of me(something like that) and she walked away. Then didn't talk

to her again the whole period. I'll do the aloof thing for a while and she will probably become attracted to me,

because I feel like she is a little right now, not a lot but a little.

oh and btw- I was talking to my friend

about the girl how I started ignoring her and how she is just a pain in the ass. And my friend is like I agree and

the girl is like "You guys are assholes" not in meanful way like with the omfg you didn't just say that way. Then

she like started talking to me and like messed with her hair. David DeAngelo is so right, act like an asshole (to an

extent) and girls will be attracted to you, or act like a wussy be nice, then find you boring and leave you for

someone else.

Sorry DeMoKill, it is inpolite to talk to others about

As I said, if you feel bad because of her, don't

hesitate or feel afraid to show it! But don't behave bad just because you suppose it could be a good thing

to do. That would be the wrong reason.
You appreciate her character and personality ( concluding that from what you

said before ), so show her the respect she deserves ( in your own opinion ). What you actually do doesn't seem to

be very respectful. Does she deserve that ????? ( Not meant sarcastically, it's up to you to decide ).
If not,

than behave like you really fell in the situation beeing with her ( no matter if it is good or bad ). Be honest to

yourself! Show her the respect you would expect from her! How can you demand something from a person if even you are

not ready to give that ????
And if she lets you down than and nothing more will happen between you... then

good not to be very respectful. You have to remember, to make people like you, you have to remind them that it is

YOUR reality as david deangelo states and when they try to cross you over into theirs you have to give them a little

wake up call. Everything you are saying is the "logical" way to do things, and with relationships "logical" isn't

always the best. Here ill throw an example your way, if women like nice guys, then how come there are a lot of wife

abusers around, and how come girls break up with guys who cling onto them, being too nice? Sure, you don't want to

be a total asshole you just have to make yourself be the selective one, and not be the person being selected,

because if you make her feel like she has the power to dump you at any given moment, she eventually will. You have

to establish that you will be setting the rules and she may be the one who gets dumped. Just listen to some deangelo

stuff, then TRY it in real life. You will see that it works, and it will change the way you look at things, how some

things seem right but they really aren't.

i'm with Demo on this one. having a woman like you for who you

are is the worst advice a guy can get. throughout evolution women's brains have been form to like certain types of

men. they make decisions about the men they like through their primitive brain versus their conscious brain. the

primitive brain override the concious rational brain. learn to control the primitive brain and you will control her.

the primitive brain also overrides the rational brain. now you can be yourself if you're the type of guy that

stimulates her rational brain, if not than welcome to beta land and feed off the alpha's scraps.

remember the

saying "nice guys finish last". ever notice girls that say they're only attracted to assholes.

Of course, if we're merely

talking about scoring nookie or snagging a trophy girlfriend and not an intimate relationship, you're right.



Nevertheless, all the women in my life like me for who I am and I wouldn't have it any other way. Yeah, I'm a

sensitive artist, mellow metromale, breeding heart liberal and most women love me for it. Anyone that thinks they

can foster a relationship based on deception and insincerely hasn't a clue about intimacy between a man and woman.

Sadly, they will never experience true intimacy and the joys herein.

11-05-2004, 12:00 AM
there is no deception and

insincerity, you can't deceive and be insincere when that becomes your personality. these ARE NOT tactics, it is

not a side of you. you learn to get ride of the old chump that was programmed to be a chump by society and you

become a new man, an alpha male. let me ask you a question, if you're not the type of guy women in general (not a

woman once in a blue moon) are naturally attracted to why continue to be that guy?

btw are you referring to a

50/50 relationship aka she has you by the balls but you think you guys share the power?

Darkman84
11-05-2004, 12:54 AM
I have to go with TRock and

Demo here, guys. I know this very well, especially with African American women, that most don't want what is

considered the nice guy. At lleast this is what they say. They want a "bad boy", a "thug" so to speak, somewhat of a

jerk, relative to TRock's example of being an a**hole. This is the type of guy that stands out in most women's

eyes of these times.

Indigo, trust me, I hear where you are coming from. I used to be like that. I still am in

some ways, and I often have to check myself as to when I'm being "too nice and sensitive" to a girl I'm interested

in. It was the way I was raised, to be nice, respectful and caring to women. Once I already have the girl, it's

usually okay to treat her that way. (then again, you'd still want to show yourself more of an alpha male. Don't be

clingy and OVERLY sensitive and such. You won't have her too long if you do.) But when you're still trying to get

with her, the nice guy role won't work. As I said, especially for African American females, too much of the "nice

guy" persona will probably leave you never getting that get that girl that "lights up the room when you see her."

Matter of fact, don't say that to her. It's too nice. She'll say you're sweet an all, but she probably won't

look at you as anything more than a good, "nice guy" friend.

Don't mean to make you feel attacked or anything,

but after reading what you wrote and noticing the familiarity of it, I thought I should step in and help out,

because as I said, I used to think just like you and earlier in life, I might've have been your chief supporter in

this conversation. Times have changed. Women's desires have, as well. I know better nowadays.

Gegogi
11-05-2004, 01:30 AM
I suppose you guys must live in

another world (or date really young girls), but most women I've known grew out of the bad boy alpha male attraction

after high school. They're ready to settle down and want a real man, not a pretender. Rather than a thug, jerk or

A-hole, they want a dentist with a sensitive and devoted heart.

I've had a serious relationship with two

attractive African American women. They were largely drawn to me because of my musicianship, soft spoken demeanor

and sensitivity. One was constantly overjoyed by my kindness and gentle touch (yeah, that sounds weird). Perhaps

getting beat every week by a thug boyfriend gets old fast. I haven't a macho bone in my body. In fact, women often

think I'm gay at first. But whatever, I have no shortage of intelligent and attractive women in my life.

Fat ugly girls are atracted to

nice guys.

Youre young pancho - youre all emotional if it gets to much save up a few hundred bucks and if its

legal in youre area go pay for a root - once that is out of the way well you can worry about real women.

All

women are bitches at some point.

Attractive ones are fickel and highly selective - just like some guys (all

of us paying more attention to the good looking ones instead of the fat ugly thing no one touches)

Great

advice sweet brenda - women want you to not wait for them to thing sexually mostly they want someone to lead. Make

the move etc. Ask her out if she says no - you move on and use that old scatter approach i use when

single.

Of course you could always try for someone out of youre social group ie if white go for asians or

african americans - europeans etc.
And vise versa.

And when it comes to tactics its more natural tactics

or natural approach if youre natural aproach is wrong - then you gotta look at successful tactics and make them

automatic responses from within youreself ie if youre to nice you need to automatically be a bit more hard and

bastard (but not to much) just enough to show youre male testosrtrone stand up for youre self and not be bullied

into whimpish submission (not psychical either its mental appraoch and toughness)

Violence against women is

unacceptible in all cases. But mentally being able to stand up to them and not be pushed around when she gets

God, I hope she

never reads this thread as she'll ran as fast and far as possible. Respect, like trust, is something you earn over

time. Sheesh, trying to "make people like you" is a waste of time. If they don't like you for who you are, get over

it and find someone that appreciates your unique qualities and individuality. Your life will be simpler, less

stressful and consequently more enjoyable.
:box: :box: Thanks Gegodi, thank. I thought, I am the only

person seeing things like that !!!!! :thumbsup:





Don't mean to make you feel attacked

or anything, but after reading what you wrote and noticing the familiarity of it, I thought I should step in and

help out, because as I said, I used to think just like you and earlier in life, I might've have been your chief

supporter in this conversation. Times have changed. Women's desires have, as well. I know better

nowadays.Hello Darkman,

I don't feel offended at all. I appreciate your opinion and advice! That's

mainly because I already knew that you are right. I know that nearly every woman on this planet is like you and

TRock say.
I don't contradict your vision of the facts. But to quote deAngelo: It is always ones own reality.
I

have met so many different people living in totally different worlds ( not better or worse, just different ), and I

believe the worls around you is just as bad ( or as good ) as you accept it be.
Everybody has to create his own

reality (like DAngelo recommends to do ). I just do it in a different way. I am not a nice guy because I have

learned to do so. I am who I am, I am working on it trying not to betray myself and what I believe in. If a woman

treats me bad, I tell her and show her.
I'm sure getting woman is much easier doing what Trock, you and most

others here say, but beeing honest to myself: I could't have much respect for a woman who feels appealed when

someone is bad and respectless towards her ( especially when it is no natural respectelessness because of oneself

but only caused by tactics ). It might be ok to have a relationship in which I feel superior and fell to be the

alpha male, but in the long run I couldn't respect her and would no longer be able to look into the mirror, I would

have to say to myself: "I am together with a woman, and I know I don't respect her, but I am still together with

her! Is that ok and fair ( even if she doesn't recognize) ?????"
I never want to be treated like that. If a

woman doesn't respect me, and I am too dumb to see it,
she should be mature enough to leave me ( just out of a

little remaining respect ). I would do the same thing!

I know you are right Darkman ( generally speaking ). I

know there are hardly any women beeing more natural ans less manipulable, but they exist ( Gegodi meets them at

times). I never met too many of them, but in my close circle of friends there are relationships of that kind

I am looking for, which got started in different ways than usual. So unfortunaltely I know that what I belive in

exists, and it would be gutless to give up and simply change what I believe in ( and who I am )! I do that every

day, developing myself, doubting and questioning my positions, but I can't and don't want to give up
what is

unfortunaly very deep in me ( and for which I get alot of respect and esteem from my close friends ). They see the

worth of my values and if a woman does not see it... then I don't want her and it is her loss !

Just out of

curiosity: Where do you expect me to come from ???? ;)

Youre young

pancho - youre all emotional if it gets to much save up a few hundred bucks and if its legal in youre area go pay

for a root - once that is out of the way well you can worry about real women.
Uhhh...okay...


Anyway,

the problem with people is that everyone uses the terms "nice guy" and "asshole" without understanding what it

actually entails. "Nice guys" are tools. Read the book "No More Mr. Nice Guy" and find out what I'm talking about.

You'll find out that nice guys aren't so nice. They are unconfident, manipulative,

do-anything-to-please-others-so-others-will-please-them-when-they-should-just-do-things-for-themselves toolbags. As

for "assholes", people mistake being mean for being confident and your own person and not worried about stuff like

rejection or whatever. You don't have to insult a girl to make her respect you...you just have to show you've got

confidence. Women are more likely to go out with an "asshole" than a "nice guy" because "assholes" show the most

confidence (although that confidence grows into complete ignorance of other people's feelings and there's where

you cross the line from a "catch" into an "asshole"). Yes, girls are attracted to and go out with "assholes"...but

how many happy, satisfied women in meaningful relationships for 50 years call their partners "assholes"? How many

women who actually talk positively about their bfs cal them "assholes"? What type of women would go out with an

"asshole" (those with self-confidence/self-esteem issues)?

Maybe "it takes one to know one" and those women

don't want to go out with guys with the same problems they know they are facing. As for joking about a girl's

looks or whatever, that could be manipulative because the reason they like "assholes" is because they have low

self-esteem (and may or may not know they are attractive), so when you question what everyone else takes as a given,

they will do anything to please you and make you change your mind just like the "nice guy" would do anything to

please women.

I recommend reading "No More Mr. Nice Guy" to understand what it truly means to be a "nice guy",

an "asshole", or a "catch" ("catch" is my own term as I'm not sure if there's a better term for it).

I didn't say you couldn't be nice, I said that

"nice guys" are not so nice. I will replace "being nice" with being a good person. You should be a good person.

That's what the difference is between a "catch" and an "asshole". "Assholes" bring others down to make themselves

look good. "Catches" are confident in themselves and don't need to bring others down to show that they are worthy.

"Nice guys" do anything to please trying to get the approval they can't get from themselves.

Again, you have

to read the book to know where I'm coming from or else you won't understand as well because you won't be using

the same definition for the terms I'm using. Unless I make perfect sense, which if you ask bjf is a long shot.

I suppose you

guys must live in another world (or date really young girls), but most women I've known grew out of the bad boy

alpha male attraction after high school. They're ready to settle down and want a real man, not a pretender. Rather

than a thug, jerk or A-hole, they want a dentist with a sensitive and devoted heart.

I've had a serious

relationship with two attractive African American women. They were largely drawn to me because of my musicianship,

soft spoken demeanor and sensitivity. One was constantly overjoyed by my kindness and gentle touch (yeah, that

sounds weird). Perhaps getting beat every week by a thug boyfriend gets old fast. I haven't a macho bone in my

body. In fact, women often think I'm gay at first. But whatever, I have no shortage of intelligent and attractive

women in my life.
Understandable, actually. The age factor might be the key. I'm 20, so I'm talking

about girls OUT of high school, mostly college chicks. I tend to agree that when women get older, they don't think

that way anymore. I mean like 35 and over.

Think you're gay at first? Dang, you don't feel insulted? I

would.

I also have friends that respect me for being the nice guy, but those are

Actually it doesn't bother me at all as

I'm secure in my sexuality. Gay men rarely think I'm gay. Usually attractive women think I might be gay and it

often draws them to me. It certainly gets me laid more than most of my macho friends.

As far the cut off age

for women losing the alpha male attraction I think it's much lower than 35. By their mid-20s most women are looking

for a taste of the other side. My current girlfriend is 23, extremely attractive and likes me because I'm not a bad

boy. She had plenty of bad boys already and learned her lesson. I can be as sweet and nice to her as I want and she

returns it in kind.

I would agree with Gegogi. I'm around all recent

graduates (mostly female), and I don't see one of them looking for or with a "bad boy"...you must lose it when you

enter the real world and you realize it's nasty enough without adding to it with bad relationships... :hammer:



I was half-joking...but when I think about it...it makes sense. When you don't have a lot of responsibility, you

want to go out with people who live dangerously or cause chaos or whatever...a nice guy will put you to sleep. When

you take on all kinds of responsibility, though, you want fun andsupport instead of rebellion and attitude.

Maturity definitely comes into play. I know my last relationship died on this principle because I graduated and

could move to the next level of commitment while my ex was still in college and wanted to live it up...

gegogi i don't think you realize

this but your personality is type one of the 4 personality types that attract women. you are an artist, which is one

of the personality type. the other 3 are badboy, adventurer, and seducer. then you have the 4 nice guys types:

successful guy, daddy, regular guy, ass kisser.

being mach does necessarily convey alpha, you're more likely to

convey insecurity by showing how much of an alpha you are.

the reason that older woman settle down with anybody

is that their biological time clock is ticking. they have to settle for less or have no kids. these are also the

women that will cheat on you during the marriage. good example is princess diana and her 2 sons william and harry.

william is exactly like prince charles while harry is exactly like diana's friend. and guess what type of guy

diana's friend was....adventurer while you can include charles into the successful category. i also know guys in

the pick up community that specialize in having sex with married women. it's very common if the husband was a guy

the wife had to settle for.

it's very common if the husband was a guy the wife had to settle for.I'm laughing at this post because

sensitive women would call you sexist (although I think you're just making an observation; I once jokingly said

we'd have to bring back polygamy if the female population lived longer than the male population and more men died

in wars or from stupidity...to which I got the intelligent responses of 106 boys are born for every 100 girls and

that women could live by themselves...which brings me back to my point) and "Prince Charles" and

"Successful"...:rofl: ...I'd go with "Lucky"...I think royalty is luck. (you could say that bad royalty get

overthrown, but they have no power in today's society, anyway, and now you just have to be in the direct line of

the royal family)

Anyway, women don't necessarily "settle" for someone. They could rough it by themselves. I'm

sorry...I don't think I would settle with someone I didn't love...there's adoption, artificial insemination, etc.

for children if that's the issue for women.

Women usually don't cheat because they want to get some ass with

some guy they wish they had, it's usually because things aren't going well at home (e.g. they don't feel

appreciated, they don't feel romance, they don't love the person they're with anymore (meaning they did at one

point...not because they settled), etc.). No rational human being would marry someone just to have kids unless they

had low self-esteem and didn't believe they would ever have anyone else. That represents emotional problems,

though...

You're right about there being guys who specialize in married women, and they are good at discovering

and fulfilling those unmet needs at home. The most common is the woman that doesn't feel appreciated, doesn't get

enough attention, or isn't listened to at home. Believe me, that guy will give her all of the appreciation and

attention she would ever need, and he will sleep with her if she is willing to go there.

Ok, First of all I don't think

being called gay is a compliment, it is VERY un alpha-male like. Here is the break down of a relationship. One

person is the lesser and one person is the greater. When the female becomes the leader she uses the male as a tool,

being TOO nice makes it seem like you WANT them, instead of making THEM want you. When a male is the dominant person

in the relationship usually the relationship can last for a long time, because the female won't be able to let go,

and if the male is perfectly happy with how its going he won't break up. You can be nice, but don't like be TOO

nice, make sure she always is aware of your power. Remember always think to yourself "Im sexy, if she doesn't want

me ill find someone else" don't think "Uh oh, is she going to like me, what should I say oh here she comes quick

brain think think" then you stand there say nothing and lose out. Ok now back to my side of the story, I went to

class today again, and again after telling her I wasn't mad at her yesterday she asked me again today. Then to test

to see if I was still ignoring her she called my attention to ask what problem she was supposed to do with homework

(with all ready knowing what it was). Then she was like what problem do we do etc etc im like what? then she says

nevermind and goes back to work. And I think she also stares at me sometimes, but you know I can't look at her

while shes doing it or she will turn away so.. Another thing, My friend that I know has been with practically every

single girl there is. He's a nice guy but he "gets it", he has a lot of confidence and gets phone numbers everday.

I actually asked a girl today "So you went out with (name)" "Yea" "Were you attracted to him?" "Yes" "Did he act

like an asshole most of the time" "Yes" "Who dumped who?" "It was kind of mutual". So if you are a "nice guy" and

you find out that your not getting the women you want or not getting as many dates as you want, try it out, listen

to deangelo's stuff and then TRY IT in real life. For the people who can be a nice guy and still get the ladies,

more power to you, you probably have something else going for you that other people do not. Always be open minded

about these sorts of things, if being nice isn't working unleash the wild side:whip: and see how people react.

Pancho1188
11-05-2004, 02:02 PM
Who cares whether you're

alpha or not if you're getting some? ;) Secondly, power is an illusion. If there is a "greater" and a "lesser",

then there is a problem. You only have the power people give you. If a woman walks out the door never to

return, what power do you have over her now? None. If you walk out the door on her never to return, what power

does she have over you now? None. Therefore, the only way to achieve balance is to work together. After all,

that's what a relationship is. Just because one is masculine and one is feminine doesn't mean one has power and

the other does not. They're just different kinds of power. Believe me...a woman who witholds sex just became

powerful. A man who just revoked the credit card in a relationship where only the man works or the man is richer

just became powerful. Notice how if one can be removed, so can the other. In addition, one person can just leave

the other. Again, it's a delicate balance of power...

If you believe that dominant power is the key, you will

either find a submissive girl with low self-esteem or be a very lonely man. You need to respect the power a woman

has while you exercise yours in a relationship. Go out for that beer with the guys, but don't forget her birthday.

Buy the 50-inch screen TV and be a couch potato during football games, but you've better sit and listen to her

talk about her day later. (you could switch this around and say that women could go to a really good Broadway show

or something, but they've better give their men good sex afterwords ;))

Balance is the key. The problem with

"nice guys" is they have none...and a jerk usually isn't willing to meet a woman half-way (after sex, anyway... ;))

to have a decent relationship.

Telling

jokes at her expense, showing you aren't afraid of the consequences, while also doing so in a manner where they

know it is a joke, is probably what that stuff is about, no?

That is why I kept asking whether the delivery

"the reason that older

I'm not sure what you

mean by "older" women. However, I don't think women in their mid-20s are "older" nor settling for anybody because

they've had it with badboys 'n dickheads and want a real man.

As for women that cheat, their reasons vary

considerably. Sure, some are unhappy, unsatified, angry, loney, etc. However, many women are completely happy with

their marriage but cheat anyway. Some are just super horny, get it every day at home and around town as much as

possible. Some women enjoy the excitment and risk of sneaking around. Monogamy isn't a universal value nor is it

hardwired into our brains. Some women--many women in my experience--have plenty of room in their heart and bed for

another man or two or three. I was happily married and cheated many times until I was finally caught one time too

many. Now I'm single. I'd be perfectly happy with 3 or 4 girlfriends (or wives) if I could get away with it. Again

it wasn't that I was unhappy with any one woman--I loved and cherished them all--I just liked getting more. Like

money, you can never have too much love. And, to me, nothing is more exciting than falling in

love.

Incidentally, I didn't realize that what's-his-name defines artists as one of the 4 classes of babe

magnets. Now I feel so used...

to: why women cheat, 25 year old women are old in your estimation, or monogamy isn't a universal value nor

hardwired into brains? I've laid plenty of pipe among happily married women, women married to dickheads, nice guys

and pretty boys. Fire in their loins discern not if their lust object is funny, confident or cocky. They just like

getting off, variety and danger. Incidentally, many of these women don't want kids.

I'm going to hold back my "I told you so" comment

because---well, by saying that I essentially said, "I told you so"---I want to tell you that it doesn't work the

other way, either. Believe me, I know. I'm not sure if I wrote about it on the forum, but I got rejected without

even telling a girl I liked her or asking her out because of the way I acted around her. I tried subtletly (without

me even knowing it sometimes as I guess I was a little lonely at the time), I tried to have her be comfortable when

I entered her personal space or engaged in whatever type of physical contact, and I tried just seeing if something

would happen. I got rejected faster than you did and didn't even say a word.

A girl either likes you or

doesn't like you at any given time. If she likes you, you could do whatever you wanted and she would still like

you. You could say you liked her, you could get close and be subtle, you could do whatever you want. If she

doesn't like you, nothing is going to magically change that. The best thing you can do is let her know you're

interested and see if she feels the same way. If not, just be her friend (or not if that's your perogative) and

move on. If she changes her mind and becomes interested and you're not with someone else or whatever, then she'll

probably find a way to let you know because she'll know she missed her chance. If she doesn't change her

mind, you still have a friend and you also moved on.

Conventional wisdom says that to get a girl you grow some

balls, ask them out, and take it like a man if you get rejected. You may be rejected, but you'll definitely be

respected. Even DYD (I say this with limited knowledge) would have to agree with that...after all, life pays

whatever price you ask of it, right? If you don't ask, you'll never receive. If she's not interested, it's not

worth your time anymore. As for the "want what you can't have" belief, that only works when you move on and she

realized what she can't have anymore. Simply saying "you can't have me" (ignoring her, etc.) doesn't work.





The reason why you're talking about this is because saying you liked her made you vulnerable, you lost your

'power', and she 'crushed' you. You were looking for a way to get your 'power' back. At least...that's only

if you look at it like that. The problem is easily solved when you realize that there is no power struggle and that

you could just pick up and move on without losing anything but the 5 minutes you spent admitting your feelings.

When you take it like a man and move on, maybe she'll finally see what a good guy you are and change her mind.

It's no guarantee, but it's surely better than playing a few games and seeing what happens. At least you'll

still have your 'power'...which is the ability to control your own destiny and not let a girl control your every

waking thought or moment.


This posting has inspired me to do the same in my life. In fact, I would be a

hypocrite unless I took my own advice, right?---------------Wow, what a concept! As I finished that last sentence,

it actually happened...I sucked it up and stuck to my guns pretty well with the girl I'm currently having a

somewhat similar problem with. Not too shabby...who knew you could be a man and a decent human being at the same

time?

Don't take

this offensively. These techniques are for people with no value. If you have value then it's displayed already,

you don't have to go out of your way to display it. If you want to be a man act like a man. Men don't cut down

other people's value to make their lowly value seem greater.

Demokill the reason you failed was because you

were so unnatural about it, techniques don't work, why because they are techniques. The way you made your posts

sound I imagine that you could see 10 miles away what "tricks" were up your sleeve. Like I'm going to get her to

fool herself into liking me. To make an odd analogy lets say a 200lbs 70 year old wrinkled old bag was into you

with no personality is into you, do you think that she could do anything in the world to nab you? Be Aloof? Make

fun of you? Uh no, I didn't think so. I'm not saying that you're a fat old lady but do you get my point? Imagine

someone told you this great technique for making PB & J sandwiches yet it didn't feel natural to you and your

sandwiches ended up looking like crap. Useless. You can tell girls that you like them and they'll still be eating

out of your palm if there's a natural connection. Stop trying to dupe your way into things and let things take

their course. And my last bit of advice, it's usually not good to decide that this is "THE ONE" unless you've

been dating for a while because your young lady "friend" here could potentially be a real pain in the ass in a

dating scenario. And realize that you only wanted her more because she didn't want you. Before you say oh so

that's how I can nab her. Imagine that someone that you didn't like was being aloof, do you like her now that

she's being aloof? Probably not. If there's a spark or something in the FIRST place (a spark, magic, maybe even

mones) then you're in and it's hard to mess it up from there.

LAST BIT OF ADVICE: Listen to Pancho and the

gay(?) guy.

send pre-emptive strikes like

david d says. make fun of her dress c&f style then say that's strike one, 2 more strikes and i'm leaving. the key

is you MUST leave if it comes down to strike three b/c if you bluff you've lost. you have to establish that you are

the prize to be able to make this stuff works. i recommend swinggcat's ebook which i use hand in hand with dyd. she

does something wrong, do C&F and say something "like why do i let u hang out with me", she'll say blah blah blah.

do a exagerrated yaww with hands covering mouth and tell her "try again". this is actual stuff that i do. or tell

her you saw her on tv last night, she'll ask where? you say "america's biggest loser". if she gets mad at anything

you say, never ever defend always attack. "somebody's bleeding today huh" or "wow, emotional aren't we?"

c&f

isn't a technique, it's a lifestyle. you have to act arrogant or atleast cocky to work. that's why it works for

me and i can usually turn them getting mad at me into about them being overly emotional and having to defend

themselves. if you act like a wussy and you use c&f, you'll look like a insecure guy.


edit: one more thing,

you need to know how to calibrate how much c&f is the limit for a certain girl. if you calibrate wrong you will

probably piss them off to the point of no return. i can't really tell you how to calibrate besides trial and error.

i always had a good calibration system b/c as i little kid i always new how much i can push it with somebody.

this. It's cool that you like the guy, but he is not a god. I agree stop acting like insecure wusses. The fact

that you're always in "attack mode" causes me to seriously wonder if you are capable of holding a normal human

relationship. Attack mode is like what someone is on when they're hunting deer. I don't give a damn mode is what

works for me, not because I don't give a damn mode works, but because I don't give a damn, it's natural. Hate to

As techniques, these are useless. This behavior works but every type of behavior works when

it is natural. I'm just saying that you're promoting it as a magic bullet and imply that it's about having power

over people. Nothing you say matters when you're talking to girls it's everything else. You can tell a girl "I

have no penis, and would like to kiss your feet and I don't take showers, let's go have sex I'm horny and

haven't showered for a month" if said in just the right natural way that can get a girls heart racing. Of course

if your words were true probably not. People blab all day, the words aren't important, the body and eyes are the

window into your soul. It's not words, it's not techniques, it's how you present yourself, how relaxed you are,

how well groomed you are, and most importantly if there's that initial spark/magic.

Gents,

My personal opinion is

that anyone who has the secret to getting what they want from women is probably too busy doing just that to be

offering advice to others. Unless of course they happen to be making a serious income selling dubious advice to

insecure adolescents who somehow think that telling a girl that you're not interested in her represents some kind

of victory. "Yeah! I really dissed her!" High-fives all around! And you go home with your hand!

If you're a

man, you represent yourself as who you are. You act on the very simple gut feelings that make a man a man. If

there's a woman that interests you, show her who you are. Who you REALLY are. NOT what some opportunistic script

peddler is trying to make you think that she's going to be attracted to.

If who you really are isn't good

enough for the girl that you want, find another one. It would be stupid, that's right, STUPID, to compromise your

integrity for the sake of a lifetime, or even one single night with a woman who isn't truly interested in the man

that you are, the man that you are unwilling to betray.

Have some self respect!

I was getting laid long

before using pheromones, and long before I started reading any of the various seduction schemes that seem to be

everywhere nowadays. The single best thing that I've gotten from any of these methods that is worth passing on to

any man who wishes to have success with women is something that shows up in various forms in many of the available

sources. I've seen it listed as the "three second rule", the "ten second rule" and so on, but the gist is "Do Not

Hesitate". Before you can think up some reason not to speak to a woman who has caught your eye, or before some other

guy with bigger balls than you moves in before you can get there, go and say "Hello" to the girl. If after you've

said hello, you are not man enough to make the girl interested in you, then you simply don't deserve her.

These

guys who are taking your money giving you this shitty advice are laughing all the way to the bank. And as cocky and

funny as you THINK you are, they are not laughing WITH you!

When you choose to pretend to be someone that you

aren't, you're conceding that who you are is inadequate.

If it makes you feel better, you can send me money

for this advice. If you don't like my advice, then all you have to do is tell me that you've had 35 years of

success getting laid with YOUR methods and I'll be happy to debate mine with you.

Point taken. Notice that I said "at any given time". You are talking about creating

attraction over a period of time, which is possible. People change their minds frequently. I won't argue that.

The people who can pull off what you're talking about are good actors and can reproduce the aura of doing what I

said without actually moving on (or the girls are gullible). In my opinion, it's easier just to do the real thing

than to fake it. People who can't pull off the act just end up coming off as a jerk (ignoring, etc.) to the person

they like. If you can do it, though, more power to you.

I don't condone cutting down other people's value,

but I think what you're trying to say is show that you are of value because if she doesn't like you then you have

plenty of other things (people) you could be doing. That's not cutting down her value, that's just showing your

value. That's good advice because many women do like a man who is in demand...another point I cannot argue.

when you do everything for a woman and do everything she tells you to do, you are not anymore in control.

consequently she get bored. she wants to turn you into a nice boy, her little toy doormat. if there is no tension in

the relationship, the attraction disappears because attraction is not a choice (!). why most women stay in these

boring relationships? it is the feeling of being secure and just to have somebody there who does everything for them

and to tell all about their nonexisting problems. as a result some cheat and / or turn into a friend. friend = NO

ATTRACTION = no sex, no passion.

@gegogi: you said "I have no shortage of intelligent and attractive women in

my life." yes, you can have attractive women in your life, as friends or maybe short term relationships. but after a

few years in a relationship, if you stay as a "nice boy" who does everything for her, they loose the feeling of

attraction. women unconsciously want to be lead by a man. when no leading takes place from man's side, the woman

takes control and turns the man into a nice (guy and a) DOORMAT.

I don't recall anybody saying

anything about doing everything for her. Where did you get that? Many of us believe in acting like gentlemen and

You can explore the world without pretending. People can respect others exploring new

things, but can smell a fraud a mile away. Value yourself and increase your value, no need to show it just get out

Whoa there you have some issues.

You sound like a real jack ass, no offense. First off we all have our preferences and value different things. To

me it sounds like you're only being a cuddly gentleman as you put it because you want something from the girl.

Wantingness (not really a word) and neediness is repulsive regardless of what sex you are. It's not about being

super nice or being a big jerkoff. Just be comfortable in your own shoes and people will take notice. Sounds to me

like you'd be giving off a pretty tense vibe in person. That's not usually fun. And from your comment about your

wallet being thin, I can see that you probably give off the impression, that well you're trying to impress (which

ironically is very unimpressive). I never spend money on girls and they don't mind. Any girl that's stuck on

your wallet probably isn't a good choice anyways. And Girls rarely have the upper hand (they just think they do),

Trust me these same girls with the upper hand usually have a more valuable guy (to them) and are probably thinking

the same thing (guys always have the upper hand) bla blah. Girls aren't treating you like sh*t. If they aren't

interested that's that, you're just taking it wrong.

First rule of thumb: Never

spend too much money on a girl for the first 5 dates! Go to a place where you can chat, like dinner, park, not the

disagree with everything being about having the upper hand. I've left dates after 5 minutes and don't feel like a

bad person, if two people don't click, they don't click. Luck has nothing to do with getting women (Unless you

find that magic "THE ONE"), maybe you should make a lot of girls your friends, and build some social skills. But

remember when they are your friends don't try to convert them to your girlfriend, just be friends. And when you

feel comfortable go out with them (being around lots of girls makes it easy to get and meet other girls) and find

that "lucky" lady. Those girlfriends would help you out if you need. When I take a girl out, I try to avoid boring

chats and would go somewhere playful. Like a waterpark or something. Having the upper hand isn't necessary for

attraction, I almost wish I could be on the lower hand sometimes. Having less power seems to make everything more

fulfilling, Alas I haven't meant anybody worthy of this since middle school.

good points... but i wouldnt

agree with the go out with her friends idea. That just leads to more headaches than any guy needs. The whole,

jealous game may be fun for awhile. but the bitching about it gets old very fast. I dont think its worth it in the

long run. Find some other girl who makes u happy. But not one of her friends to date.

It is

hard to do, but it's the best thing you can do for yourself.
On this big'ol round ball we call Earth,

tis all about the choice(s) one makes. To translate that ... tis mind over matter. :rant: We often makes

things much harder than they are ... tis that brain thingy that's in fault, and needs to be tamed.:whip:
