Can't completely agree with this one.
First, the whole "lose value" concept is ridiculous as it applies to dating. Stocks can lose value. Your house can lose value in a turbulent market. That new car you just bought loses value when you drive it off the lot....
But how can a man "lose value" by simply approaching a female stranger? Outside of groveling to a woman or making a complete fool of himself in some obvious way, I don't see how a man can "lose" his value as a human being, simply by approaching a woman...
Secondly, while showing your cards too early CAN kill attraction, that is far from a given. Women love confidence in a man, as I'm sure you know. A man can show interest in a woman (directly) in a nonchalant way, while not displaying neediness, and still be attractive in that woman's eyes. It all comes down to whether that particular woman finds that particular man attractive (through personality, game, looks, etc.)....
It's true that when a random guy approaches a woman, the woman usually knows the guy is interested. But men are expected to approach women in our culture, just like women are expected to uphold a certain level of beauty (hence makeup, high heels, jewelry, etc.) in order to ATTRACT a certain type of man....
