Senior Don Juan
Ok, so some of my girl friends have told me that I'm metrosexual. I was like wtf and they're like," It's a good thing." Now, is it really a good thing to be called metrosexual by girls?
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.
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
Don't listen to puertorican_lover he has no clue what he is talking about....Originally posted by PuertoRican_Lover
Women say this to tell you that you are starting to take on the habits and charcteristics of a female - you are a few steps from a homosexual!![]()
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.
KC, your definition is accurate however the predominant misunderstanding of the term can lie anywhere between PL's definition and Engetsu's. It's funny that long ago guys that kept a proper demeanor and dress were referred to as Don Juans.Originally posted by Kineti[C]harm

Being metrosexual is VERY good, we are talking metro not homo.. A metrosexual is a man that cares for his own exterior and self. You could define a metrosexual as an upgraded male if you ask me. See I trim my eyebrows, I have a nice 130$ haircut, I dress sharp, I know what colours that match and what doesn't match, I use lotions etc to keep my skin nice etc etc. Now I am in no way gay but do I look better? Of course I do, why? Because I care alot for how I look and this is being a metrosexual. Girls LOVE it. The only males opposing metrosexuality are males that do not understand it and that is afraid.
Ugh, please. I don't oppose it because I'm "afraid", I oppose it because I feel that wasting money on 130 dollar hair cuts and all sorts of lotions is POINTLESS and that knowing what the difference between pink, mauve and salmon is is a waste of brainspace. I have better things to think about, like my studies in school. Upgraded male? Hardly. Just a different sort.Originally posted by Kineti[C]harm

You ain't no caveman typing on a damn computer.I am a self admitted caveman and i probably tap more ass than all the metros.
See when I get a new haircut and anew hairstyle I feel good, it's nice, I like some small change and I actually LIKE hairstyling, dressing, clothesshopping etc. I get constant comments on how good I dress, how cool my hair looks (females even notice the different styles I create) and I've got tons of comments on my perfume etc. Does it make me less manly? No I'm still as much a player as anyone else (I've actually been called Don Juan by several girls, how many here can actually say the same?).Originally posted by MetalFortress

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
