I think most men have already noticed that you get a lot more female attention when you're already taken than when you're single. I think I've figured out the reason for this, it's quite simple. You see, when you're single, you see every attractive woman as a potential 'prey'. This probably happens unconsciously, but it happens. This scares women away in some way, also unconsciously. When you're already seeing someone and you're happy with her (the happiness part is very important), you will approach women more as friends, you won't have any intention of trying to impress her in any way. This way, you act more natural, more self-secure and that is what most women fall for. All of this also happens unconsciously. This might already be a well-known thing, but I just wanted to share my thoughts on this. What do you guys think?
