A good rule of thumb, “if a woman is into you, she will break rules for you, if she’s not, she’ll make rules for you”

One thing i appreciate about your videos is that you DO NOT do the fast cut / edit after ever sentence that you deliver. That style drives me absolutely BANANAS 🍌 It’s more like a normal conversation THANK YOU ////

Totally agree with your comment. I appreciate that he does not do that or those flashy intros with the annoying music playing in the background throughout the whole video.

Emotional intelligence is the most undervalued masculine skill. Confidence comes from knowing who you are and knowing how to learn about others.

takes a very long time to become confident in yourself and know who you are. if you can have that (and who you are isn't a cunt) you're in a good place. no point in faking personality to date someone, date who is similar to you.

Kind of what I tried to say above and rambled! 🤣

What I did... I dated for years. Was treated like crap for years. Met a woman and tried to give her everything. She lied to me and got pregnant when I was only 22 years old. Then went on and ruined my life for years. Child custody hell. Left my kid with me and I raised her alone. I dated for years and was treated awful. I finally gave up at age 30. Then I asked God to bring the right one to me and make the wrong ones get away. It instantly worked. Immediately I started getting stood up on dates, getting dumped, ditched, ignored. I was mad at myself for asking Him that. Then 3 years later when I'd given up I met her. Married her 13 years ago. A diamond in the rough.. like she was literally made just for me. Ask God, gentleman. He made you and he makes the woman to help you. Go to the Maker.

​@TheRis81 This kind of elitist mentality is why religions can't coexist.

When I want to get a date, I usually just ask my wife if she’d enjoy going to dinner or maybe a sweet treat! 🤣 Love your channel. Cheers from across the pond!

As somebody who has blown it on both job interviews and dating....I needed this advice forty years ago!

What unusual about me, is I've ended up dating servers or bartenders and in turn being friends with the bouncers/security also I've gotten dates, becuase I'm a "barfly" I like live music and as a musician myself, I want to enjoy my beer and watch the band, there have been times a woman comes to order a drink, I didn't I iate the conversation, but it got deep and interesting, I would say be well rounded, read, be open minded, I'm not the greatest looking guy, but never had a problem getting dates! Also be clean and know your way around a kitchen. My personality has worked in other countries such as Germany, Mexico, Turkey, Romania etc and I'm working class. I think it's about respect, empathy and not being an idiot and show true interest, people like sharing thier culture or things about themselves

Really good advice here. The bottom line is that women are attracted to men who have relaxed self confidence and look after themselves. If you've got good banter, you put down boundaries without getting angry and you're not afraid to say "no thanks, you're too much of drama queen / argumentative / money grabber etc. - there are better options out there than you."

Never ever put ba woman on a pedestal

Great advice. But I just wanted to say… dude, you’re jacked! Don’t underestimate how much that helps, especially for us shorter guys. When I was younger I had very low muscle mass. Once I turned that around, I suddenly had lots of options. It certainly doesn’t make you irresistible to all women. But for the guys who struggle the most, it will put them in the running. Women are drawn to masculinity and muscle is an easy way to demonstrate that.

It is quite simple honesty and most important confidence. I am over weight due to an illness not great looking but I have a great sense of humour. I was widowed in 2006 and was total devastated. When getting back to dating I was lucky and ended up with a good friend who gave me advice as per my first sentence. Think of it as a numbers game. I would never say I would like to take you to dinner. You may not get on and still end up paying for dinner. I would say let’s get a drink and see how we get on and if we do we can arrange a second date. Keep it simple. I am now married and very happy to find such an amazing lady. Good luck fellas James

Solid advice

Too many guys don't have any real personality. Some guys just work and watch football. What woman will be interested in that? Regardless, always just be authentic and stop thinking about sex, just talk to her, that's it, don't try to impress them, at least don't overdo them. Talk to women more or less how you would talk to a friend, just a bit softer maybe.

Brilliant! 💯👍

Thanks Pia! My Mum sent it to me!!

Spot on mate - subscribed to your channel expecting knife videos and here I am agreeing with your life philosophy! I've found that 80% of your interactions with the opposite sex are really just a case of basic social skills and reading the room, so to speak. There are 3.5 billion women in the world (last I checked anyway), there's bound to be at least a few out there who you'll have a mutual attraction with! The other thing with rejection - I find generally if you're pleasant and polite but you're rejected, you'll be rejected pleasantly and politely. If you're constantly being told to fuck off, you probably need to adjust your attitude. Of course there's always the odd person who's just got no manners, but generally speaking I think that rule holds. Anyway, just my tuppence worth, good stuff pal!

Too much work for too little, tho. Most options we have are single moms, fat women, divorcees, etc. Not saying that men do any better, but women can easily share the same high quality guys so average guys just get desperate and bottom-of-the-barrel women. Truth is that these are terrible times for average guys, and honestly if you can find a way to be happy without women (beside drugs) I suggest to go for it, fully, if you can.
