    Women must learn social skills more and learn to approach men, propose them or make them feel special. Women must know to get men attached to them by their talks and actions. Women are too uptight and awkward, together with all the risks involved with approaching them and hair splitting job of deciphering what their actions mean. Women are better at social skills so they must step up. They have higher EQ, so they can handle rejection better as well. So women must initiate more

    @@ameya7723 respectfully disagree. While some do approach, it's VERY UNLIKELY they will. That's a masculine trait to approach and if women are doing this more often, I don't think that'll be good in tye long run. Women are designed to be feminine and they want to feel desired, so by men approaching, that says something.

Women can file false cases, cheat, have multiple partners, demand alimony, and everything, but they cannot approach. Why. Because that is where the trap is set for men to get hold of them, so that it is made to look like it is a man's own doing. It seems you have bought into the idea that men want women more, than women want men. So it is a man's job to do all those stuff of approaching and what not

    "Say their name." Sometimes people can feel uncomfortable if they don't know or have forgotten my name. During our conversation, when I'm relating a certain humorous event, I work in a line such as this: "Then I asked myself, 'Tim what are you doing?'" That takes the pressure off of the listener to recall my name.

    This is great information -- it really should be taught in school! I've had to get reasonably good at most of them in the last decade plus, not for dating reasons (I've been happily married for almost 33 years), but because I went into business for myself and the same conversation techniques work wonders when trying to encourage people to become your clients. You just taught me a couple of new things, but also identified a number of things I was already doing in conversation but never knew those things had names. You also cleared up something that had been a mystery to me: I had assumed that the women you've interviewed in your videos were personal friends, and since, as you said, birds of a feather tend to flock together, I had been wondering how it was possible for them to voice so many opinions that run counter to the values you promote on your channel. This makes much more sense to me now that you've stated that you actually didn't know these women prior to interviewing them.

    I absolutely love metaphors. It's one thing I almost use to reaffirm my own explanation/story to myself as I hold a coversation with someone else. Plus I am a slight bit of a storyteller (as I'm told) because of both my wild and crazy ideas (that belong in a book) and my down to earth theories/thoughts that really should go into practice for a more positive world. So I'm told. However the dice rolls, I love speaking with metaphors more than trying to explain in language dedicated to whatever it is I'm explaining/describing because it's more fun and interesting (I think) as someone who could use something beyond the mundane to retain and truly understand the depth of whatever it is. Great video, by the way!

    Excellent tips, and suggestions Courtney. Your last one is what at times makes some movies, and TV shows seem "unrealistic" as the characters ALWAYS know exactly what to say, since everything is of course scripted. They never struggle to find the right words, or response; they never hesitate or think whether or not they should say this, or that; no matter how uncomfortable they might be in the situation, etc. Very few people always know what to effortlessly say in every situation no matter how confident they might be.

    High Value, High Efficiency Compliments must be genuine/honest as Courtney explains (if not, sooner or later they become "wicked boomerangs" when the truth is known) but also: Someone only really likes others COMPLimenting an specific trait (story telling skills for example) of him/her when he/she doesn't have it or he/she thinks he/she doesn't have it because we always want what we don't have or what we think we don't have. This happens because if we finally get what we don't have while keeping what we already have, we end up having more "things", we end up being improved, more COMPLete, better versions of ourselves. That being said if someone has something (money, beauty, wisdom, etc.) or thinks he/she already has it, it doesn't mean he or she will not want it anymore, it never hurts to have more and more money, beauty, wisdom, etc. but when someone already has one particular thing, he or she stops desiring, valuing it (not wanting, not needing to be COMPLimented about it) and will want (and work for) to have a different thing to be a more COMPLete person. If that's not possible that person at least will want (and work for) to be loved by someone who has the thing she or he lacks (a person who COMPLements him or her). If that's not possible that person will at least want someone who tell him or her that he or she has the thing which he or she lacks (will want to be COMPLimented about it). If that's not possible that person will be sad and unhappy and thanks to be so he or she will do something to try to get the thing she or he lacks (or at least get a COMPLiment). If that's not possible maybe someone will do something to give that person the thing she or he lacks or give him/her the means to obtain that thing by him/herself. If that's not possible that person remains sad and unhappy and well, we all know sometimes life just @@@. Another complete different thing it's why the hell we often think we don't have something we already have and why some times we think we already have something which actually we lack. As always, Einstein already knew the answer: Human Stupidity is Infinite. We must work hard to build a better education system which will make us, smarter, wiser and less stupid so we will be more efficent knowing what we really have and what we lack.

    Also, what you compliment people on shows what you value! I think people want to know your values but being too forward about it might be turnoff for some and complimenting people is a great way to show people what you value without spelling it out exactly. For example, I was seeing two guys recently. One thing ended and then started talking and seeing another guy and that ended because he was going through a lot of really hard stuff. I know that's a cop out for a lot of people but he was very forward with what he was going through and showed a lot of integrity by being so honest. ANYWAY, the first guy I was talking to, when it ended, he said that I was a gorgeous woman with a great personality but the spark wasn't there. And I felt the same. Or at least, I didn't think we were compatible. The second guy, we were so compatible and it left me feeling pretty bummed and I'm still getting over it. I felt like he was perfect for me. But when it ended he said "you're a great person, so smart and caring." And to me that expressed the difference between what they valued. One guy was just looking for a girl that he had fun with was physically attracted to. No shame but not exactly what I'm looking for. And the other guy essentially told me he valued intelligence and compassion and that is what I want and need in a partner! Great insight on that one, Courtney! I'll try to incorporate that.

    I would like to add that these skills are also used in sales, dating is selling yourself in a way, reading books on salesmanship can help. One thing thats easy to focus on is the WIIFM (whats in it for me) but for the other person. This does take empathy to figure out tho.

    I hate talking about myself (unprompted) and is often a blocker for me in the getting to know each other phase. I feel like when I talk about myself I'm bragging and I don't like it. If someone is genuinely curious and asks me a question about myself then I have no problem talking about myself, but it leads me to my next issue. I hate being the center of attention and that often conflicts with attempts at being a good storyteller. If I'm in the spotlight, I'm often trying to get the key points across with no metaphors or detailed descriptions so I can pass the center of attention onto someone else. It's something I have recognized and slowly taking steps to become better at storytelling.

(I’m 54) who want to get back in the dating scene and is looking for a committed relationship? I’ve been out of the “game” for years and everything has changed. Are dating sites any good? I don’t party. I don’t go to da clubs and drink. I like being at home after work. Any advice for us old guys who don’t “got game?” Thanks Courtney 🙏🏽

    Also it's important to remember to engage the other person in the conversation. No one wants to listen to even the most fascinating story for 15 minutes. They should want to feel part of a conversation. Additionally, it should be relatable to them as best you can make it. You can have a fascinating story about underwater basket weaving but if it's a subject that they couldn't care about it won't help you at all. And the tip about being yourself is important. The person may be attracted to the conversation or they may not be. That's life. But the skills are still important to use. And if the person is really interested in you most of what you say isn't going to matter anyway.

    One big epiphany for me was realizing even the most socially competent people make social mistakes all the time. The difference is they have an internalized understanding that mistakes are normal and most people understand this. Whereas socially anxious or unskilled people see mistakes as totalling to their experience. Socializing is a constant dance of calibrating and recalibrating in collaboration with others. And sometimes we step on a toe.

    I've always looked at the first one like this: I already know what I'm interested in, so why not take an interest in what someone else thinks or how they see the world? I use my introversion to my advantage by letting people talk and just giving them my undivided attention and you usually get people to open up more and as a result they think you're the Dos Equis man all because you let them talk about themselves and asked follow-up questions to help further the conversation.

    I think that great conversation is a ..." two- way" street. If the person you're speaking with has the personality of a rock and needs to go to charm school, then it won't matter!.... Conversation is a dialog and NOT a monolog! Intelligence, charisma & humor help ALOT in exchanging ANYTHING with someone new. Some people are introverted and have very little social skills. Attitude ... being friendly and cordial helps to keep everything going. Remember that some people are standoffish and may take awhile to " warm- up".

    I always like to say the persons name. Usually to catch their attention, this tells me they are listening to me. If you'd walked into a room full of people and go over to a person you want to have a conversation with, it is best to say their name first, then wait for them to respond. Other wise you will most likely get a stupid response after you ask your question without addressing the person first. Yes, I do this when it is just the other person and I in the room. Now if I am in a conversation with said person already, I usually don't say their name again during that entire time I am conversing with them.
