Re:
I. Don't be afraid to lose. If some person didn't like you based on who you are, or want to be, move on, they have bad tastes anyway.
II. First impressions count as everything. That's because we're a time-starved world that doesn't 'buy into' alot of crap, and the image is the quickest decision-maker we have. If you're at college, there's time for redemption, but HOW a person sees you is HOW they will act toward you.
III. Who cares how other people see you? You can't control that aspect of the game. Let them think what they do. People who feel this way secretly are jealous of you, otherwise they wouldn't judge you. And if they judge you, they're not giving you a chance to be understood. The minute we judge, is the minute we have negated any understanding.
IV. If you're known as a player, then you're getting girls and doing something right. Why would you change that for a WOMAN you don't even know yet? Let her prove her worth to you.
V. Women love image. They'll deny what they want, but they want the type of guy who played around and wrestled and tickled them in the school yard. To have fun, and to be led. Men are beings who progress on a path. Women test us by seeing what our path is. If you're not INTO your path, then she's got no dance to join. This is the essence of the feminine being. They GIVE into the masculine essence and flow with us.
As an aside from EXP, I was dating a girl who was the baby sis of friends. We'd hooked up and I went on vacation the next day. Rumors surfaced for whatever reason that I was dating somebody else, though they weren't true. She became sketchy. The truth only came out recently of who said what to who. These things can't be controlled. Just move on. It ain't worth your struggle. It's not like you got kids, or time invested, or family, and even if you did, it's not worth ripping apart who you are over this.
