Some of the guys here are not sure what they are doing wrong with women. Life would be all peaches and cream if all the men on here only approached healthy women who wouldn't play games and would have the ultimate in interest in the men. Read the posts, fellas, that is NOT the reality. The majority of you guys make a bee line to those very women who are a challenge because just like women, men like that challenge. Don't even bother deny it, because I could pull up hundreds of posts to back me up on this one.
I'm trying to help the struggling guys to better understand ways to "read" women. Some of you can do that, but there's a lot who are pretty clueless in this area.
Let's say that a guy does really well up to a certain point quite consistently, but then almost always crashes and burns at about the same point about every time. That guy can use this tip to get a better idea of what he's doing wrong. He learns something, moves on to the next woman and adjusts his "game" accordingly based on the new knowledge he has gained.
I simply don't understand why this relatively cut and dry concept is being missed by some.
You don't understand because you're a chick, and no one has ever called you on the possibility that if something goes wrong in a relationship it is *not* automatically the guy's fault.
This whole thing is so bratty chick-think it's not true. But I'll explain it again, slowly this time.
It is not the guy's job to live up to the woman's expectations.
DJs don't ask themselves 'Am I doing something wrong? Is that why she's mad at me?'
The only question DJs ask themselves is 'Am I happy here?'
*That* is the key point you're not getting. As a chick you still seem to feel that guys exist for your benefit, and that it's our job to make you happy, and if we don't make you happy then you have a right (or something...) to play games and do all kinds of other crap just because you're female and this gives you special privileges that don't require civilised behaviour.
And that is so not how it works.
The only question a guy should be asking himself is whether he's happy with a chick or not. And more to the point - whether he's happy *with himself* or not.
That is way more relevant to what happens next than trying to playing kindergarten guessing games about what 'he did wrong' to justify (justify? - are you serious?) any weirdness on her part.
Yes, it's true, a lot of women aren't mature enough not to play games. Well - guess what? If she plays games, then she's out, and it's entirely her loss. She could have had a man but she chose to act like a girl, and if the guy looks elsewhere she only has herself to blame.
My big problem with this post is that it sounds like you're really saying that these aspiring DJs should put up with crap like that, just because that's what women do, and - like - deal with it?
Because if so that's neither true nor helpful. That is not how a DJ thinks, or how he acts, and that is not the world that a DJ experiences.
If a guy is striking out at the same point every time it is *not* going to be because he's doing something obvious like dating other women without (gag!) her permission. It's much more likely to be because on some level he still believes he has to play the game the way that women want it to be played, and he doesn't have any respect for himself. Which the women are getting, and that's why they're leaving.
Guys who have that real confidence and integrity do *not* turn off women.
As for guys making a bee line for women who are a challenge - no, it's just the opposite problem. Until a guy really matures into the DJ role he *puts up with* all kinds of crap from women because he believes he doesn't deserve better. He supplicates to get what little is going to be made available to him, and he's prepared to take a lot of games and crap and BS because he doesn't have the spine to do anything about it. More than that the woman knows she has him by the 'nads, and if she's really twisted she'll getting off on rubbing his face in it.
Ugly stuff. But as we can see, the problem is not that guy made a boo boo and now she's mad at him and he needs to get with the program or she'll (sob!) leave.
No no no - a thousand times no. Once a guy grows past that stage, he sees that the rules are different. BS is no longer acceptable. He doesn't play games because he doesn't need to play games. And he doesn't waste time on girls who do. He's no longer hypnotised by a pretty T+A and has enough self-control to check out what's really up with a woman - good and bad.
And if it's good then he does what he has to to increase his pleasure and delight from the situation. Not because the woman deserves it just because she's female. But because he knows exactly how to treat her to maximise what's in it for *him*.
If making her happy does that, then he's all for it. But it's on his own terms. It's not hers by right.
