We are animals. We are predators. We are hunters, programmed to track and kill our prey to survive. It's easy to make the "hunter" reference, but we are using the EXACT same tools that we use to hunt, to try and find our partners. If that's the case, it's just a modified version of hunting.
As hunters, we have methods and practices that help us go after what we are looking for. In hunting, we know that making specific noises, using scents, and knowing where to look will give us will increase the probability of us finding what we are looking for. Want an Elk? Get some Elk piss and make Elk mating noises. It should draw an elk. Want a long term relationship? Then you get your ass on match.com and hopefully stop looking for your other half on Tinder.
Hunters, learn about what type of game you're after, then equip yourselves accordingly. Know what types of tools to attract you'll need. Learn what type of weaponry will be most beneficial for your prey (Learn which close method is best for what you're after). After gearing up and studying, then you have to go to the correct environment to find your prey. Want a woman for the night, stick to clubs, bars and places that serve alcohol. You can find long term potential in these places sure, but the odds are not with you in doing so.
A problem that I'm seeing with all you "hunters" out there is that you all are focusing on one animal. Call it "oneitus", investing too much, or putting them on a 'pedestal'. It's happening for every type of game you're looking into: one nighters, FWBs, short term dating, and long term relationships. Predators of all kinds, you keep filling up subs with questions about specific women that you're trying to get. The problem is, you're not seeing all the other potential targets. You are all stuck looking through your scopes at one target which is too far away, running in the wrong direction on a hill, when there are a bunch of better shots if you'd take the time to look around you.
This doesn't mean go for low hanging fruit, or to artificially increase your numbers by "slumming" it. This means don't chase after one animal when you can spend your energy attracting more. It's easier to attract a group doing the right thing, than it is for you to chase down an individual, only to get outran by someone that has better camouflage and options available for escape.
These were just some of the ideas I had in my head to try and get down today. Best of luck to all you "hunters'' out there!
