I went on a psuedo-date with a 39 year-old woman. I call it a 'psuedo' date because of the silly way women think that if they call something different it's not. We'll have a "real" date next week, but I'll get to that.

Anyway, this woman, let's call her AFCJane, has the problem of being somewhat desperate. She's near the end of her child-bearing years and is desperate to have a husband and get two kids. I decided to go to an event with her because she was flirting heavily and dropping massive SOIs. I actually turned her down last year, but said, "oh what the hey" this year just to see what would happen. She's not an HB, more of an average woman, but I think she has some party aspects to her personality which can translate into bedroom behavior.

Anyway, I used the car trip to the event to elicit some of her values. She has huge issues with money--not that she lacks it, but that she's insecure about it--due to her relationship with her former spouse. She also is somewhat conservative (I'm not), which I think is due to a submissive streak. She talked about being obedient to her parents and being 'daddy's girl'. Also, she had a superjerk to the point of being violent for her former husband, so I don't have to pretend to be quite as much of an ass as I do with younger women.

Someone here said that a good DJ becomes what the other person wants. In this case, if I took the role of the gallant, self-controlled protector figure, it would fulfill her fantasy. Basically, she wants to fall in line with a husband/father figure that will lead the relationship and make her feel like she's checking off her list of life requirements.

Her desperacy to have kids is something of a turnoff, to the point that I said that I was going to cancel the 'real' date, and that she needed to cool it with the pressure. She calmed down a little, but it's pretty apparent that she's thinking silly little woman schemes to see if she can man-trap me. I don't actually care about this. I can use it my advantage.

My goal in this was actually to see if I could get a mid-term relationship. Something like 3-9 months so that I wouldn't have to hit on women so much, but get laid regularly nonetheless. I may actually abort if she's too clingy, but one thing I've learned is to accept that people tend to come to relationships with issues no matter what.

So here's what seemed to work:
*I secured her number quickly, and didn't right away. That tends to turn women off. '

*When she blabbed on and on I just let her talk to fill up the space and asked her strategic questions to elicit values. I know now what would work on a date with her, what things have to happen for her to experience it as "good", and I know that despite her "conservatism", she isn't sexually inexperienced. It's like going to a date with an instruction manual for that person.

*I made it clear that I wasn't going to accept the 'friend' category without being demanding. This used to be hard for me because in the past(AFC days) I'd get mad and show my insecurity by demanding that I not be in that zone. Never worked. Now, I'm smooth. I said we could have a romantic date, but if she didn't want that I'd be just as fine anyway, but I wasn't going to do some silly AFC stuff she'd suggested. So I didn't show desperacy, but a willingness to walk away, which increases desireability. Then, as she started to quiver on that point, I made the decision for her, which is what she wanted in the first place, and said, so we'll do this on so and so date, and it would be a romantic date, which she accepted.

The thing is, I really was ready to walk away. my interest level isn't that high, and my confidence level is that I can do better. But I think I need the practice, so I might just go with this for a while to see what happens.

This is SO wrong on SO many levels, it is completely AFC behavior. I bet if you thoroughly reread the thread that said that, you'd find that several people had questioned the poster's wisdom.

I'm not ragging on you for what you did to each his own and that isn't the point. Your problem lies in that you believed the statement that a DJ becomes what the other person wants. If you were your own man, you wouldn't have the problem that you are having. At least you would be able to deal with it and move on.

Dear sir

I think that you are doing quite alright with that woman as you will get laid without problems and whatever else that you are looking for.

However, I don't share your values at all as to the fact that you are prepared to use that woman without sharing her goals. For better or for worse, that woman has an urgent agenda of finding a genitor for her children. Are you prepared for the part? If not, it would be better for you to back off from her.

Is backing off an AFC behavior or whatever, I don't know and I don't care. However I do know that it's the gentlemanly way to proceed. Don't play with the hopes of that woman if you don't expect to follow through. It might have some quite dramatic effects on her.

libre,

I actually agree that it isn't gentlemanly to not share her goals. This woman is in danger of getting NEXT'ed because she's too desperate, and if she's too much of a hassle, I can read a good book.

However...

ALL childless women between 30 and 40 are like this in my experience. This one's more overt about it. Unless they're that rare strong-willed type, women get pretty worried about missing their biological deadline for kids. So part of the reason for my dealing with her is to see what works as far as managing these issues, because they always come up without fail.


The other thing is being a gentleman is not a good thing. I spent some time at one point thinking through the merits of DJ tactics and other seduction methods. When I was 100% AFC, I thought being a "gentleman" meant passively hoping that you'd win at the numbers game. Seduction however, is actively managing the woman's emotional state to bring about sexual results on purpose. So in effect, manipulation is necessary to have sex with any reliability. This bothered me for a while, but eventually I concluded that it is part of the biological process even if it's not the societally sanctioned one.

"Society" also thinks that sex is bad, but we'd be extinct if anybody paid attention to that rule.

The sad thing is her personality isn't that bad when you ignore the baby complex. If I decide to let her go, I'll post about it.

i can undertand both viewpoints discussed here. mr libre brings many good points of social behavior to the table while mr mack explains his DJ strategy about his purpose with this woman.

both are good points, but i must explain my opinion.

1. i understand your DJ strategies mr mack, but i believe i would back off on this woman. i understand that being a "gentleman" doesn't return results in persuing the sexual appetite, but i believe this is not a woman to "practice" tactics.

2. this woman wants kids and wants them quick. it doesn't seem fair to waste any more of this woman's time to practice tactics.

3. although being a gentleman doesnt reap sexual results, having a heart reaps your character. we all have hearts and playing with hers in this situation doesn't build your character and doesn't keep your integrity in tact.

i side with mr libre

I remember saying something like that in the conversationist thread. I remember writing that the best seductionist are able to give the person the one thing that they want most, or the encouragement that they need. I think this behavior is a lil amoral, but if your goal is to divide and conquer, why not? We ingratiate our peers all the time, why woulld seduction be any different?

The AFC version of this is giving up everything you believe for female attention.

Do what your morals will allow.:eek: :eek:

I made my decision. I didn't feel very good about the whole situation this morning, so I called her up this evening and after a a mature adult discussion, we decided not to date. I say 'we', because it was mutual after we discussed our relationship needs, but it was really "I" if you consider that I could have proceeded with the seduction and got some easy ass.

I don't think it was a moral problem, but the issue was that there were so many red flags to me, I couldn't ignore them. For me, they were that she was Christian, she's okay-looking, but not super-hot, she wants children really bad and she only has about a year or two left to go, she's republican, she is insecure about her mate's money, and personality-wise, she's something of a conformist. That would be the perfect woman for someone else, but for me, all these put together were too much.

If I were a pickup artist, I suppose my goal would have been to get laid immediately and ignore incompatibilities, but since I'm looking for a mid-to long term relationship, I have to like her on some level beyond just sex.

After I let her go I felt pretty good. I guess confidence means you don't need every woman.

I think you should always be looking for sex even if you want a relationship too. An exception would be if she seems emotionally incapable of handling dating at all: a social invalid. It was too soon to assess whether you were ready for a relationship in this case. This woman seems close enough to the worst case and failed your qualifiers so you deservedly NEXTed her. Good job.

The more situations like this you experience, the more you will feel comfortable about it. We are all human beings and deserve not to be lied to as a rule. We also deserve not to waste time with women we are not compatible with. If you get laid and don't lie while looking for a LTR, you should feel no guilt.

Good move. You don't want to sleep with a woman who is desparate for babies. One word on that:

OOPS!!!

Well, like I wrote before, I think you made the right decision.

However, I do find funny that one of the reasons that you considered for her rejection is her political beliefs. Only in America as you say.
