Other factors od have to be taken into account! On this site and some others AGE is the biggest factor, not being yourself or being a nice person! Quite simply AGE, to many people seem to have exceptionally unrealistic demands as to what they are seeking! Strict adherance to this limits both them and others to a very narrow field, I agree that you have to adapt to a certain extent but to me the analysis should come after a failed date! That's if you ever get near one in the first place!

Lets be realistic for a moment. A narrow list of 'techniques' will only work for a narrow profile of women. Moreover, the techniques that work for one guy may not attract the kind of women that are suitable for another guy. eg getting a one night stand requires a different approach to finding marriage material.

Sorry AM, but you know as well as I do that the statement you made isn't quite accurate. Isn't it the abusive ones that seem like the real charmers to begin with? Are they not pretending to be nice just to lure you in? We all modify our behaviour to suit the moment. We behave differently at work than we do when we are out with our friends, especially when we have customer facing jobs. There have been times when I have worked as a security guard and had to smile and be polite when I would really like to rip their head off and give it back rectally. I have had to bite my tongue and curb my reactions when verbally or even physically assaulted in my work. Had I been out with my friends for the evening, my reactions would be quite different. Although I detest violence, I am not a wimp by any means and will not be abused either verbally or physically, I can give as good as I get. Some can extend their ability to modify behaviour to increase their chances with women, even to the point of appearing to be the exact opposite of what they really are. What is being suggested here is not to try to be something you are not. The OP said he was a flirt and it was both natural and expected in his community, what has been suggested is a variation of venues rather than personality. Also still flirting but not with drunks who have very little inhibitions or reasoning ability. |
what i meant was you can't pretend to be nice etc forever, you cant just turn it for a few hours so as to get the girls so to speak, the act can only be kept up for so long before the true person is revealed.
as for modifying behaviour, of course in a work situation you have to stay professional etc at all times, however i have never and will never modify my personality in a date/friend situation, what you see is what you get with me and if you dont like well you aint for me
All this crap about saying this doing the other is all bollocks if you ask me, i have been on dates where it is so obvious the guy is trying to hard to do/say the right and it is such a turn off.

i always seam to fall into this catogary aswell,iv never had much luck with girls in the past
but then i met my now ex about 18 months ago,we were friends before throguh friends,and got chatting,we went out....and it just went from one thing to another and we were so close i vertualy lived with her and was travaling the 30+miles miles to work 3 times a week then driving back up there after,even when on nights i did this,we had out difrences she is very inteligent where as i was never realy interested in education,i curenty work for a well known manufactoring company,anyway this made me grow up fast you could say iv never realy been a big drinker or clubber anyway,neither was my girlfirend,and then anyway an even longer story short shes now gone off to university and basicly now just wants to go out as often as possible and problalby sleep about aswell,so after all this time of her saying how in love she was with me and wanted us to be "more" she has now decided its best we have a "break" and isnt interested anymore about anything we used to do etc and tbh its got me pritty down over the last month since she went,i see her constant picture and status updates on facebook etc and feel like she is almost making a point in letting me know how much she doesent care anymore,id always put her first in everything and would go out of my way to make sure she was happy and also spent a pritty penny over the time aswell
sorry if you cant make any sense of that post im not the best with spelling and grammer

Well mate, I am sorry that that has happened to you, from what you wrote you sound like you did try and make her happy. And it sounds like you succeeded until she went off the uni. Who knows, maybe she will live it up for a bit then wonder what happened to the old her and realise what she lost in you. But don't hold out for that to happen, because its quite likely that it wont. Its best that you start to find new people in your life. Do new things and see new people yourself, in time you will find you think about her less. If you constantly see her on facebook having a great time without you it might not help matters.
