About your dating life? I want to be more open to them about the girls I'm seeing, but I haven't even told them that I've had a girlfriend before. I want to know about their encounters with the opposite sex when they were younger and things of that nature, but I'm afraid to ask. Do you talk to your parents(well mostly your dad) about girls? How do they react when you bring up the subject? What do they usually say? Also have you ever brought a girl home to your parents before? Does there opinion matter to you? etc.
"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
Are Any Of You Embarressed To Talk To Your Parents?

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.
Me and my old man sit around and have a drink and swap war stories. His always start with "this was before your mother and don't tell your mother this but one time when I was stationed in...."
It took me growing up and being a man and acting like a man understanding my dad as a man to be able to talk to my dad as a man.

Sounds like you have a cool dad. It's just that my parents act so immature when i even mention a girls freakin name! Can anybody relate to this?Warrior74 said:Me and my old man sit around and have a drink and swap war stories.

Yeah, mine too. They are both so incredibly awkward on the subject that the only reaction they can pull off is to tease me about it. I've just quit bringing it up unless I have to.dadmonson said:Sounds like you have a cool dad. It's just that my parents act so immature when i even mention a girls freakin name!

Yup. My father is more immature than I am when he behaves, and he always tries to give me advice like "women are smarter than us" and "women are always right".... :cuss:dadmonson said:Sounds like you have a cool dad.

Don't worry. You're not alone. There's lots of us lacking male figures in our lives.
"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
The weird thing is, my dad is definitely in the alpha/dominant category. He's man of the house, king of the castle. Definitely a good life example.
He just can't seem to discuss the topic of girls with his son without being extremely awkward.

Yeah, I was embarassed to talk to my parents. But, when I opened up, my dad gave me advice like great posts that have been on here.

My dad is awesome, he's completely Alpha and despite being 56 years old, he draws respect from 20 something year old punks. And the women LOVE him. I talk freely with him about a lot of things.
I'm thankful i get the chance to talk to him about it, I know alot of guys never get that chance.
