AFC (Nice Guy) =phony, not himself, manipulative, does things just to get a reaction from a woman, is afraid of not having her.
DJ (or at least assh0le type)=phony, not himself, manipulative, does things just to get a reaction from a woman, is afraid of not having her.
Normal, confident "good guy"= Genuine, himself, not manipulative (except for the good natured push-pull, fun seduction stuff that is sexual and healthy) does things because he wants to and it makes him feel good, wants to keep her and treats her well, but is able to do this without being her puppy dog or a push-over.
The more we focus on other people and how they act (he's AFC, I'm this, he's DJ, I'm that) the further away we get from who we are. All these tools we use are simply ways to get RID of the phoniness, and to become our genuine selves that have just been covered up by BS.
Get up in the morning with the feeling that you love life, love other people, and that no one and nothing can bring you down becuase your own internal self-love is so strong, and you'll find you can do whatever you want and people will flock to you, even if you may APPEAR to be breaking the rules by others.
Rules are meant to be broken. People who are genuine, don't need rules. They make their own.
