Guys,
So I'm on vacation in SE Asia (one of the poorer countries) where I'm from originally (migrated to the UK more than a decade ago).
My well meaning uncle is in his early 60s and gives me the following "advice" for dating the local ladies while I am here:
a) Open doors, hold umbrellas for them, pull out chairs for them
I think this is AFC and I don't feel comfortable at all doing it, do you guys agree?
b) Take a genuine interest in them and get them talking about themselves during the date and try to talk about myself less
I think this is the one piece of good advice he gave me - does this work and help?
c) He likes to compliment and flatter them a lot about their looks and in an exaggerated way, calling them beauty queens and such
I think this is bad. Is there any place for anything more than the rare compliment about looks at all in a good Don Juan's game? If you do have compliments in your game, what nature are they? I find when I compliment a woman's brains or personality and not say anything about their looks it helps me (as it implies I don't find them that beautiful, why not, LOL), but when I compliment a woman's looks it seems to work to my disadvantage
d) If the woman seems uninterested to begin with, he takes responsibility for raising their Interest Level by being fun to be with - in a spot where myself or Doc Love would just say, "next!".
I have read here and elsewhere that Doc Love gives up too early, am I losing dates and action by reading initial lack of attraction and thinking to myself, "I am screwed anyway", and blaming initial low Interest Level for dates that go badly?
Despite his age, he claims to date women in their 20s here, and that his success rate is close to 100%, and I don't think he is lying or has any reason to lie.
He is a senior executive at a major corporation here, e.g. he has the money and power, in a poor country and I am wondering if his "success" has more to do with money and power than with any game.
He claims he is humble when he speaks to them, but on first dates he likes to drive them over to his house and cook for them, where they see the nice house and 3 cars.
The women he meets are generally in lowly paid jobs, e.g. waitresses, or at best at the entry level in large corporations and typically live with parents or roommates.
No flames please just genuine feedback on what is going on please.
My read is that his money makes him handsome to these women in this poor country and he would succeed no matter what comes out of his mouth, and that he just falsely thinks he is winning them over with his AFC behaviour.
I would say b) is actually good advice, but the rest I should disregard.
Thanks in advance guys.
