I know it makes women sound stupid and illogical, but I think it holds up.

How do you explain someone like Andy **** or Bill Maher, or for that mater Joe Smalltown who constantly gets laid despite having little to offer. Momentum i'd say. When women see a man has a lot of beautiful women, they are more inclined to want to be with him.

As for wanting what doesn't want you, I swear by this one. I don't mean be rude or ignore the girl, just don't smother her with compliments and unsolicited affection.

Any better or am I still an ignorant male?

It's important to remember that a lot of people use each thread. You're probably not as funny or clever as you think, I know I'm not.

Mm, better at the second one. Still not the first

For most girls, perhaps, but not all.

If I see a man with lots of beautiful women or things, I steer clear. And I like being smothered with compliments and unsolicited affection!

Of course, there is always exceptions to the rule and nothing is absolute.

As for the compliments and affection, only if you really like the guy already right?

Not a good move to go from friends to bunkmates?

Yeah, good point.

I don't completely agree with that.

Half the time, I don't know how to react to compliments.

It was so bad with some guys that I don't even believe when people call me beautiful anymore.

But you're right about guys with a lot of beautiful women.

Thus, the bumblefuck of human emotion.
But regardless of how many people tell you you're beautiful, it's still dependent on you believing it for yourself. It's not so much what they are or aren't saying, it's more what you think about yourself. You shouldn't have your self confidence relying on what people are saying about you.

You also don't need to react to compliments. A compulsory need to react to compliments often leads to compulsory decisions based on them as a way to reciprocate. You can answer a compliment with a smile and simply walk away.

If you've been hurt by reciprocating to praise, you should be careful, because, as you know, a lot of guys will just say things to stroke the ego as a way to get... um... jiggy with it?

Cute, darling.

I understand what you mean, though. I don't rely on their compliments as much as I had wanted to trust they meant what they said. "You're beautiful" always leads to them saying something more meaningful.

Well, just to provide you a little insight from this side of the fence, a guy who up and says "you're beautiful" and you barely know him... He's spinning a line.

Someone who's interested in YOU is going to comment on deeper things than what you look like. You'll have more of a connection than a physical one.
I mean... that applies if you're looking for something meaningful.
Otherwise, looks is all it takes if you're just trying to score.
