Here's a Real man. I wish I had the skills to do this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-YvRvLxk6Hk&feature=related
Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single
She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.
I'm humbled. Next to a Real man, I'm nothing.

"I just moved here from Florida."
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.

This man is truly amazing!!....I dont what other words to say...
To be a *real* girl you need a cute face, a loyal heart, and a submissive nature. You don't need any *skills* per se - since your man is just going to do it
But to be a *real* man - you need skills. To be a man is to DO things, to be able to overcome nature. This video really hits close to home because survival skills are the most basic skills.

I just watched all 6 videos. Incredible. That guy could build things with his hands that most people couldn't with a textbook manual and power tools.
We're so dependent on modern conveniences yet this guy lived an amazing life without any of them.

...there's, something very disturbing about that last sentence.thefonz said:
I agree that what this man did was great and I have nothing but respect for him.
My question is: wouldn't we all get bored just living there? I mean we all can build our house and live in it but you don't have to be isolated from the world to do that.
I enjoy nature but I also love civilization.

"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.

Although I admire him for his survival skills and his self sustaining skills, I think he took it a bit too far for my taste. Its one thing to build a log cabin by yourself but its another to live there in isolation for almost half of your life. A man needs also a piece of ass in his life not just a piece of mind, I wondered if this guy didn't turn off his camera to fvck a mountain goat.
I would have liked to have seen his adjustment to civilization after he decided to come back in 1998, he would be like "WTF happen here! and what the hell is this feminism bullsh1t?!"
Beside's I doubt the modern woman would be impressed with this man. If he would have invited a woman to live with him, he would have expected her to do some share of the work like gardening cooking and cleaning. she would be like "uggh,,, don't you have a microwave or something? I don't know how to cook, and I let my mexican cleaning lady clean everything... where the hell is Starbucks around here?! oh my gosh I would be isolated from my friends and other people giving me attention!! no I don't want some smelly bear hide, I want to go shopping in a mall and spend lots of money, I can't live here in the snow! I need to lay on the beach somewhere to be happy!!!!"

Hehe, in which case he would do well to snag himself a fine traditional living piece of amish ass instead. :crackup:

:crackup:or go to Utah and build a polygamist ranch for himself and his 4 inbred looking wives.KontrollerX said:"I can't live here in the snow! I need to lay on the beach somewhere to be happy!!!!"

No man can be in total isolation for this long otherwise he would go insane (or be already insane for choosing such a lifestyle). I am sure during the summer months he would have asked his buddy to fly him back to the big city in Alaska so some grizzled looking prositute can blow him, and then buy a whole stack of playboy's for the cabin to keep him warm during the winter.

He did make trips to visit family, so he had a connection to the world. I asked a builder friend of mine today about cabins. He told me where he built one. He used a generator up there to be able to use his vast array of power tools because there was no electricity. He also told me that I would have to use Pine and not Spruce unless I had it shipped in, because there's hardly any spruce here.
He also used shingles for the roof on the cabin he built, when I asked him if he'd used moss. He also coated or lacquered all the logs and sh!t so the cabin he built is a lot more modern, and larger.
I'd like to build my own one day with his help utilizing mostly primitive tools like **** Proenneke did.
I have my Bug Out Bag, however, to be able to sustain months in the wilderness, if worse came to worst. It'd be nice (maybe even vital) to learn how to build a cabin on the land you've picked out though.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
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.
