| 2 | People I find attractive are the ones that are never attracted to me... ?OP stated that he can get girls that are good looking (brunettes), just not his preference of good looking. Based on that alone, I think you should consider the possibility that sometimes things happen for a reason, and you may be dismissing the perfect girl while chasing one that's potentially a narcissist or bad for you. I know there's people who don't believe in manifestation or preordainment so I won't get Godly on you but my unsolicited advice - I'd give one of those chicks who are actually… | /r/seduction | 18/09/22 09:45 AM |
| 1 | What’s the missing ingredient that holds a lot of guys back from really connecting with women?Why do you think you can't connect with a woman? | /r/seduction | 16/09/22 07:42 AM |
| -1 | What’s the missing ingredient that holds a lot of guys back from really connecting with women?Machine gun Kelly pulled Megan Fox. She's already rich. He ain't dark, big or good looking. | /r/seduction | 16/09/22 07:13 AM |
| 1 | What’s the missing ingredient that holds a lot of guys back from really connecting with women?Culture plays a role in mentality as well. Where I grew up, you protect the woman at all costs. If someone breaks in or poses a threat, the man's life is expendable to save the woman's. This is an expectation of a woman where I'm from (she will not tolerate a weak dude), and the men oblige because it's instinctual. Not oblige. It's a privilege. So you have biological inclinations and culture, vs social conditioning and context. Just recently from Iowa State College - During much of human history… | /r/seduction | 16/09/22 07:06 AM |
| 1 | What’s the missing ingredient that holds a lot of guys back from really connecting with women?I apologise for my word choice. I should have phrased it better, I assumed that biology would be implied. What do you think is the missing link? Or essential in a partner? I'm genuinely curious, I like to hear different perspectives. I know what I know (from experience and what I've read), but I'm FAR from all knowing and I certainly haven't read every piece of literature on the topic so I like to learn from others. That was my pov, I'd like to hear yours if you'd be willing. | /r/seduction | 16/09/22 06:37 AM |
| 1 | What’s the missing ingredient that holds a lot of guys back from really connecting with women?What's real science to you? Biology is biology. Do you want citations? Happy to link you up. And the stats on what you said are disproportionate. 76,293 male officers in the U.S. Army, compared to 16,987 female officers. Marine Corp 19, 000 compared to 1000. As I said, you don't have to adhere to a biological urge but most women will pick a mate that will protect them and has the ability to provide. Not all - I'll take that back - and I'll even rephrase if it makes you more comfortable. Most wom… | /r/seduction | 16/09/22 05:04 AM |
| 1 | What’s the missing ingredient that holds a lot of guys back from really connecting with women?These are biological urges, you don't have to adhere or give in to them however. We can't dispute science because we don't like it. Far from outdated as well, I just found a tonne of recent studies on scholar. | /r/seduction | 16/09/22 04:55 AM |
| 1 | What’s the missing ingredient that holds a lot of guys back from really connecting with women?Women don't want a guy with an instinct to protect who is not a scrub? We'll see when war erupts or there's a need for it. | /r/seduction | 16/09/22 04:48 AM |
| 2 | What’s the missing ingredient that holds a lot of guys back from really connecting with women?Nothing wrong with that at all. Sigma gonna be a great dad and emotionally fulfilling husband. | /r/seduction | 16/09/22 04:38 AM |
| 3 | What’s the missing ingredient that holds a lot of guys back from really connecting with women?A good woman will help her man be his best and vice versa. That's admirable. I think I get your initial point, you don't want a loud, repressed asshole. That's not an alpha. There's tonnes of jacked up guys plagued by vanity and insecurity, and they talk a big talk but run when the alarm blares. They're an insult to the alpha. They're like putting a filtered pic on socials under the guise of model, and saying they're Cindy Crawford. It's an emulation bypassing 90% of the mental and physical work… | /r/seduction | 16/09/22 04:31 AM |
| 1 | What’s the missing ingredient that holds a lot of guys back from really connecting with women?My last two cents after reading the comments (good value thread) - suffering anxiety, being a lone wolf or awkward doesn't remove your natural instinct to protect or provide, which is what women want if you believe in any kind of science. Most women know this. There's your confidence. Most women, in the real world - not in the dystopia created by social media, also know that men suffer mentally because they've been taught to suppress their biology, or take on the burden of the world to be good p… | /r/seduction | 16/09/22 03:57 AM |
| 3 | What’s the missing ingredient that holds a lot of guys back from really connecting with women?Probably not long-term when you have kids to feed and mould with some resilience so that they can fend for themselves one day when you inevitably die. | /r/seduction | 16/09/22 03:44 AM |
| 1 | What’s the missing ingredient that holds a lot of guys back from really connecting with women?There are degrees of disagreeableness for sure, and you can take it to asshole territory. But there's nothing unattractive about respectfully disagreeing (in line with your morals) or having healthy boundaries with a woman. How many guys are ok with their women having only fans when they inherently don't agree with it? On a given date, if you weren't on board with OF and the girl is telling you she's on it, there's nothing off putting about saying 'that's cool, my girlfriend won't have an OF tho… | /r/seduction | 16/09/22 03:42 AM |
| 4 | What’s the missing ingredient that holds a lot of guys back from really connecting with women?You're talking about teenage girls or immature, narcissistic influencers. Not women. There's a dangerousness to all authentic men. If it's put on or exaggerated, it is cringe af. In a dangerous situation, in my experience, the loud guy runs and the quiet man, who knows his biology and knows what he's capable of but keeps it in his back pocket, is the hero. Usually he's the one driving the shitty car as well so his wife can enjoy spa days. Perception of high value vs actually being high value, wo… | /r/seduction | 16/09/22 03:27 AM |
| 1 | What’s the missing ingredient that holds a lot of guys back from really connecting with women?Are they, though? Are they willing to disagree with the girl they're going after, are they willing to be firm on their boundaries and own values at the cost of losing her? That's being authentic. Authenticity = respect. | /r/seduction | 16/09/22 03:20 AM |
| 2 | What’s the missing ingredient that holds a lot of guys back from really connecting with women?An alpha has feelings. They just don't see productivity in self-pity or sadness, and will find a way to turn it into a strength. To say alphas are emotionless is misinformation. They feel deeply, they just have established coping mechanisms because they're conscientious of the jobs they're tasked with or the amount of responsibility they have. | /r/seduction | 16/09/22 03:14 AM |
| 0 | What’s the missing ingredient that holds a lot of guys back from really connecting with women?This is what I meant by being genuine. | /r/seduction | 16/09/22 03:06 AM |
| 1 | What’s the missing ingredient that holds a lot of guys back from really connecting with women?Being genuine. There's safety and comfort in that for a woman. Depends on the type of women you want to attract, but if you are going for women with lived experience, who aren't interested in instagram modelling, they don't want games and bullshit. Just be yourself and if you get rejected, good riddance. Why would you want to put on a facade that's going to a. make you miserable and b. eventually falter, and she's going to feel unsafe and distrustful and leave. Safety is everything. You're genui… | /r/seduction | 16/09/22 02:56 AM |
