"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

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.

In pooks book he talks a lot about masculinity. All these techniques and tricks simply mean nothing without a associated way of doing them. You can throw the best pick up line out there and have it fail just simply because you may suck.

Masculinity

Characteristics

Janet Saltzman Chafetz (1974, 35-36) describes seven areas of masculinity.

1. Physical — virile, athletic, strong, brave. Unconcerned about appearance and aging;
2. Functional — breadwinner, provider for family as much as mate
3. Sexual — sexually aggressive, experienced. Single status acceptable;
4. Emotional — unemotional, stoic, the proverb says boys don't cry;
5. Intellectual — logical, intellectual, rational, objective, practical,
6. Interpersonal — leader, dominating; disciplinarian; independent, free, individualistic; demanding;
7. Other Personal Characteristics — success-oriented, ambitious, aggressive, proud, egotistical; moral, trustworthy; decisive, competitive, uninhibited, adventurous.


This was taken from Wikipedia. Now some as well as i might be saying..well...no ****, but alot of people here are missing the bigger picture. I come here every so often and see threads like...what do i do on a date..what should i say...how should i act....what to do if she does this...ect.

These people are missing the big picture and dont realize that if they were to simply make them selfs more masculine and work on them selfs instead of pleasing the women they would find that women please them.

Now of course these arent all the things that describe masculinity...but if you were to take a few of these traits and attempt to develop them you might find not only women taking a liking..you might just boost your own esteem.

It is more important to work on yourself than to work for a women.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

You have to realize for lot of guys it takes a long time to break the old habit of "what do i do". I say, take baby steps. Set goals. "I'm going to be more aggressive at my job". "I'm going to be more decisive in school". You get the idea.

Fight Club, the movie/book, is a good example of an emasculated 30 year old boy turning into an alpha male. He gradually realizes that Tyler is, in fact, him all along. Even at the end, he refuses to accept his masculine fate by literally beating the crap out of himself, and shooting himself.

Masculinity is a bold idea. You must be bold enough to live it.

You think Fight Club was about masculinity? and that's what he was rejecting at the end of the movie?

whatever dude.
