SCENE: A square on a poor neighbourhood of old London, reminiscent of D!ckens or Twain. It's filled with people going on every direction without much regard for what's around them. A small white dog, not an adult one, his coat brown with dirt, is wandering around the square looking for food. He's hungry and confused by the crowd when suddendly some scraps of bread appear from above. He looks and sees a man eating. The man hadn't really noticed the dog, yet he's the dog's saviour.
The puppy dog devours the scraps and starts following the man who, not knowing his feat, is perplexed as to why that annoying dog follows him. He shrugs it off, kicks it and yells at it and the dog still continues after him. It'd sleep at his door despite being ignored and, after so much insistence, the man accepts the puppy and keeps it.
Do you notice any parallel to the AFC pattern of running around a woman until she keeps him as a friend out of pity?
Folks, I'm proud to present to you now the simple technique which will weed out all AFC behaviour, and I call it:
THE PUPPY TEST
Do imprint this story inside your brain and the next time you're near a woman you want, do not let the sorry puppy slip you mind for a single second. Then, before every move you make and every word you say, ask yourself the question:
Am I acting like a sorry puppy?
And if the answer is yes then you know what not to do. It may not make you a DJ, but I think it'll get you half the way already.
