where has this thread been all my life
True. There are a lot of gems in this thread, but I feel it may be a little too instructional. Most of these tactics are great when you're dealing with a shady jumpoff, other times they'll ruin a relationship with a good woman. For instance, "never let a female feel like she knows you.." are you effing kidding me? Sure that works for Shaniqua my jumpoff, but if I've been in a relationship with Candace for 3 years it seems silly and will drive us apart.
With that, here's my advice:
-Everything that you read is just advice from other people's perspectives. Take from it what you want. There are exceptions to every rule.
-Be as cautious with females as you would be with any other new relationship
-Respect yourself above all, have some principles, and STICK TO THEM!! People respect that.
-Be OPEN to love, but never give a woman more than you're willing for her to leave with. Whatever that threshold is varies from person to person. Know yourself and what you can handle.
-Enjoy your time with whoever you're with while you're with them. Understand that nothing is guaranteed in this world. A bus could take their life or they could completely betray you. These are possibilities, accept that and live your life to the fullest.
I think it's just that simple.
Another subject that is critical to the subject of leadership is authority. One simply must have authority. Essentially authority boils down to the power to make decisions and to have your decisions followed. This is important because without any authority, you simply are not a leader. You are merely an advisor. Your decisions will only be followed 'by the discretion' of the 'advisee'. Thus, as a man to whom leadership is trusted, you must have authority.
Now, we can have authority based upon fear or authority based upon respect. Authority based upon fear is that which is based upon negative consequences happening to that who you are leading. For some men, this involves verbally berating a woman, threating to leave her, etc. This is by-far inferior to establishing your authority based upon respect. Authority based upon respect is established by having an objective that is clear and effectively communicated. It is established through consistency with the values you espouse, with competence at performing that which you said you would and with the general fairness that is prevalent throughout any decisions you make.
This is not only important in dealing with women, but with life in general. As a man, you want to have authority at your workplace, and you definitely want to have authority at home with your wife and kids when you have them. Without this, there simply will not be any true leadership in the home, which will eventually sew dischord and chaos. When you issue orders, they have to be based upon a sense of fairness and of both parties mutually benefitting. This will in turn, foster more trust, more respect, and ultimately more authority.
A key reason why a lot of women simply do not follow what many men do is because men are not establishing their authority out of respect. They are utilizing fear or manipulation to accomplish their objectives. Their decisions are not based upon fairness, nor are they mutually beneficial. This sort of leadership soon fosters distrust and eventually your authority will no longer be heeded. Ultimately, this weak leadership will be discarded or rewarded with manipulation or devious behavior in return.
A lot of women simply do not follow men's orders in this day and age because men continually lie and manipulate, and the only party that will benefit in the short-term is the man. Who would follow such an individual? Instead, if you allowed the terms of your objectives be stated truthfully and plainly, and your decisions benefitted the woman, as well as yourself, then there is a much higher likelihood you will be followed. For example, would oyu invest with someone who you've invested with prior and they were ultimately found to have stole your money in a pyramid scheme? Absolutely not. Would you give your money or follow the instructions of someone who you once gave money to, and they turned your dollar into a thousand? Absolutely. If you want to be followed, you have to operate on truth and mutual benefit. With that said, you must also avoid dealing with those who will not deal with fairness and mutual benefit. Do not keep manipulators around you.
The key point to take away from this is that real men do not sell dreams. They make them come true. If you are to establish a strong and true authority, you must base your decisions in fairness and mutual benefit and refuse to deal with those who do not see likewise.
Gotta be a boss type of man if your expecting boss type chicks.
If you want to be fukking 9s & 10's you need to be a man who is doing something with his life. You cant expect a beautiful chick to wanna run with you, if you have nothing going for yaself.
I think that he means that if you want a bad chic (ex. look good, has a good job, in shape, no kids, mentally stable, etc), you got to have the same qualities yourself. A lot of guys need to realize that you cannot pull a Beyonce or Kim K type of chic being a nikka working at Burger King. Those chics wants a man who doing big themselves or even better for the most part.But what is a 9 or 10 sir
What I thought was a 9 or 10 a few years ago is not anymore
As a man I think you should do what you want, drive what you want live within your means.
I dunno...I cant help but feel like most of yall are saying that 9's or 10s aka simply good looking bytches deserve a man that has his shyt going on...becasue they are good looking.
And that is one of the main reasons men go down the heartbreak path in the first place. They've done everything they can, the girl is clearly being waste but they like her and envision being able to walk around with her on his arm and receive daps and looks so they put up with all the bullshyt.
This is the same reason why dudes who are nerds with potential get mad when they see thugs taking all the women at a young age thinking "When I get my 6 figure salary and graduate as an engineer with job at an Energy Company...then theyll see." But alot of the time it doesnt even change for em and they still fiendin for some p*ssy. Cause thats a poor way to think. Why would you even want bytches who werent there during the grit and grind to want you just cause you on point now. Maybe my ego is too big but fukk that.
My motto is that a girl deserves what she goes for no matter how beautiful she is. Once a man is able to realize that if a girl is sexy as hell, yet still goes for dating idiots...then she is in fact an idiot and the two deserve each other. Once you walk forward with that mindset...youll save yourself a lot of bitterness, and resentment...and end up much happier with someone who truly cares for you. Dont let her know about that Lexus you about to peel off in after meeting her. Dont let her know about the fact you work at a Fortune 500 making moves and earning 70K a year. Everything should be taken at face value on her end when she first meets you. Don't discount yourself, and dont offer a premium.
Not necessarily true. Confidence trumps any material possession or accolade you've ever accomplished. An dude making an average salary with confidence about himself can bag a bad bytch. I've dated broads making well into the 6 figures, chicks that could be models, etc. Everybody has insecurities. These chicks are no exception and are susceptible to powerful game and charisma.
Rule of thumb is that you want to be what you attract, but you could pull any broad. The question becomes how long will you be able to sustain her if your shyt ain't right?
