multiple reasons. Plus what better way to have a bunch of women focused on you at one time not to mention it widens your selection pool. And that would be a bad thing because????[/quote]
Because there are many pitfalls and they out weigh the benefits. I already explained several of the drawbacks on page 15. Personally, I think it's smarter strategy to meet the friends after you've gotten a few dates in and the girl is crazy for you, because then if one of her friends is a c*ckblocker (I'm sure you appreciate that women can be c*ckblockers for many diverse reasons), then she's more likely not to be affected by her friend's opinion and more likely to defend you than buy into it because she's gotten sold on you. But you need to get those first few dates in there to get her there, and you can't be distracted by having to entertain her friends.
I don't see how walking into a situation that has many pitfalls and then having to do your pony act if things turn south is such a smart thing. Ounce of prevention's worth a pound of cure. To use your military analogy, meeti9ng her friends and dealing with whatever happens if it goers badly before she's more into you is like charging directly into "Battle Friends" when actually first you want to establish "Bulkhead Woman".
Ahh, so that's how walking away works for you. You flake on her before she gets to flake on you!
I don't have to stay in situations I don't want: I make a date, it's with me and her, not me and her showing up with her little brother, her kids or her girlfriends or whatever. If I stay, that's an implicit agreement that I'm willing to accept her changed terms and conditions to the date.
That's not being a flake. Agreeing to the changes for the sake of keeping the date on is what AFCs do. I say, DJs walk when a woman changes the plans like that.
