Throughout my adult life interacting with women, I had to learn some hard lessons that helped me to level up. I will impart some of them. I'm not a dating coach or some kind of PUA guru. I'm just a regular guy that figured out the cheat code. Here we go:

1) If she says she is busy or "we'll see", fellas you need to walk away. First level of game I learned from my father is that if a woman like you or has interest, she will make time. In the same vein that you will make time for a woman you like.

2) Never accept being friend zoned. A woman loses respect for men she has friend zoned, though they never admit this. There is the odd exception but for the most part being in the friend zone is a death sentence.

3) Have an abundance mindset. I've had women tell me that their intuition told them that if they rejected me, they knew I would have something else lined up the next day...and they were right. Having this mindsight is kryptonite to women.

4) Looks alone will only go so far. I've known plenty of men throughout my life that got plenty of female attention because of good genes but couldn't keep a steady or always ended up alone. Why? They relied solely on looks and had no game.

5) Never be a "nice guy". Women say they want a nice guy but in truth they don't respect them. They respect a man more who puts them in their place, walks away from low interest, and a man who rejects them.

6) If she tells you she will only be intimate after a specific time frame, RUN. Understand that there are men she will break this rule for. Women have rules for men based on if they find you attractive. Example, if a handsome man compliments them it is flirting, while someone she doesn't find attractive is harassment or creepy. I personally have a 3-date rule. If things aren't escalating by this time. I cut my losses and walk.

These are things I had to learn the hard way and observed, not pulled from the internet. I've lived it. Doesn't matter if you are young or middle-aged. White or black or brown. These fundamentals never change.
