I can laugh stuff off plenty, but it gets annoying when any and every post I make in this thread with even the slightest of details (left out purposefully) gets me a lecture from you and Erzengel like I'm some little kid that can't function without someone holding my hand.
I understand that I haven't had the greatest past, but I'm not the same guy anymore who made all those mistakes. I've learned and I've grown from my mistakes and mishaps.
First of all I don't think I've ever suggested people change themselves, in other words what they like, what their religion is, and what they see themselves as. I think you misunderstand a lot of our advice. First of all you are the "same guy", you're always gonna be the "same guy", that kind of hyperbolic change complete with epiphanies is cinematic bullsh**. You can only change your habits. Fat people only get skinny if they force themselves to diet and exercise every day for example. It's that kind of tedium. Same thing with women. If you keep doing the same thing you get the same results. I tried to point that out to you when you were still dating the last girl.
Girls don't do things to spite you, they do things for their own private, well thought out [they think] reasons. So it's like dancing. You don't try make all the moves. You do something then watch how they
react to it. If they react negatively, or seem to do so reluctantly you should back off a bit. I feel I've pointed out many times you do this. You wait, then come on to strong.
Like this two months away girl texts you and now you're all excited. I mean it's great. There's some girl right now in my upstate hinting she's coming to see me. I saw it. Read it. There's no point in me really following up on it until I know she's in town. Just kind of have to go with the flow. So this girl is two months down the road. Cool, you'll find out if whatever she did meant anything then. You can't force your own meanings onto this. They either are or they aren't.
I'll give you this because I feel like it will help you understand all that crap SuperMike PUA BS.
Basically my roommates a DJ so I generally see bars from a bird's eye view, and that's very illuminating. You see how Girls who play games operate. First off, they move around a lot. They move from one guy to the next, and they usually do the same routine. They have a habit. They'll dance up on a guy. Get a girl to do some overt sexy gesture, and then the guys will really get into it and spend a ton of money. Girls get bored and then they move on. That's why it's called a game, because that's what it is: "a game". Just like any good Vegas style game the only way to win is not to play it. Not to be the sucker. That's why married guys, for example, are said to be so popular. They don't play the game. Players take it one step further and they have their own game, sometimes one that involves a lot of lying (although the girls in this equation lie just as much). That's where all that crazy peacocking and stupid negging nonsense comes about, or sometimes some will claim playing it super sweet works, because really everyone's routine will be unique. That's all that is, but that's also why people tell you to be yourself. Still don't play the game though.
That's what we're trying to save you from doing. Is falling for the game and the display. So what? She
says she'll see you in two months, she
says she'll try to be more intimate, she
says this thing to make you think she likes you in that way. You can't fall for that stuff. Got to look at what they do, and don't fall for the illusion.
