This is true. Yet I would almost say: “put on act, promise her the world, UNTIL you get her PREGNANT, THEN be the man you want to be.”No problem with what the OP posted but it's really not that complicated.
Plan things you want to do... have fun.... don't try to impress her.
The minute you stop being a little selfish and start caring about what she wants is when you start losing her. So if you are dressing and behaving is such a way that you are not comfortable with you are doing things in an effort to impress her. I think I've said this a thousand times and will say it again. WOMEN ARE NOT FVCKING STUPID. If you are putting on a act, she will know this unless she is VERY young or very drunk.
Women want men that are who they are and then she can figure out if she wants to go along: women do not want men that are pretending to be something they are not because they know you can't keep it up.
This sort of thing works for the OP because this is how he is... it is not going to work for someone that isn't. I do believe you can fake it until you make it, but it's a LOOOOOG process, you aren't going to get this with coaching alone. You have to BECOME this person.. that takes practice, a lot of practice... it also means you are going to have to abandon your friends because they are not going to like that you have turned into something else.
I’ve said it before; by the time the man becomes what he what’s to be, the “young, hot, fertile” girl is already gone. So he’s put in all that time and effort on himself and is left with divorced, older, fatter, or uglier women. No one’s fault, just a fact of life,
Ideally Sosuave should say: “Manipulate the girl when she is young and lock her in somehow; so by the time she is older and realizes she could have done much better, it’s too late.”
