| "Many women, the majority of women, are insecure about their looks. They think about how they look more than they think about sex (if you can believe that!). They also believe in what I have come to call the 'deficit of pretty.' That is that there is somehow a scarcity of beauty in the world - only certain people can have it. As if pretty were a baton, a baseball cap, or an 'it's my turn to talk' stick that only one woman can have at any one time. This is why she is constantly asking you whether she is pretty or whether you think other girls are pretty. If you were to think that another girl was pretty she would then conclude that she is not pretty based on her perception of the deficit of pretty. She will not be able to comprehend you can think she is pretty, be completely and totally happy wither her, and yet maybe sort of perceive that another girl might be the slightest bit attractive - all in response, of course, to a question that she probably asked you. In dealing with this it is best never to answer any questions regarding the beauty of other women asked of you.... ever. In fact, it is best to act like their are no other women on the planet besides your wife, mother, and/or sisters." | | |
| "Women have the very strange habit of stringing together very peculiar chains of logic. For example one could say something fairly innocuous as 'I'm a little disappointed about my job' and that somehow turns into 'I don't love you... and I think you're fat.' It is my experience that a woman will take what you say far more seriously that you do and will dwell on each trivial remark that leaves your lips long after you've forgotten you even said it. Therefore it is necessary to try and break these chains quickly before they can be linked and cause problems. One good way is to immediate cut off any other thinking that might occur. If we take the example above, we could say 'I'm a little disappointed about my job... but I love you and I want to be with you....... and you're NOT fat.' Alert them that when you make a statement the only meaning you intend is that which is conveyed by the actual words used. Woman need constant assurance of two things: 1. they are loved and appreciated and 2. they're not fat. If you do not expressly make these statements they will not feel secure in the relationship. Now be forewarned, when the above statements are made your woman will not believe you, yet you must say them anyway. It is very important that they be said even if they don't believe you. It is still not clear as to why they wish to hear words they don't believe, but if you value your woman, as I do, you will do what is necessary to make sure she is the happiest woman she can be." | | |
| "When planning a wedding it is best to not invite family and friends. While this may seem contrary to conventional wisdom, often it is the unstated goal of the family and friends to make the wedding about themselves and their psychoses instead of the couple. Also for maximum boredom at the reception make sure to invite plenty of church people, because nobody, and I mean NOBODY kills a party like church people." | | |
| "Flowers given at regular intervals can alleviate many problems. Though the intervals must be random so the woman will be surprised. Women are also enamored with jewelry... which is essentially a small shiny rock in a frame of twisted metal. I have not yet been able to discover the basis for the female fixation on flowers and jewelry, I can only dutifully report its existence." | | |
| "Every man should have some element of danger which he can use to attract a woman. Women, depending on their type, like either small or large amounts of danger. Danger is important to keep them interested. They must be just a little bit afraid or they will become bored...especially at first. Danger becomes less important as the relationship grows because as it grows the woman begins to desire stability over danger. Therefore it is important for the man to be cognizant of his current danger and stability levels and adjust them according to the situation he may find himself in. It is best if your danger angle is due to some outside force; either an age difference or family discord rather than having to manufacture it. That way the man can better utilize his resources to the winning of his chosen girl's heart. That being said, there are certain things that are not inherently dangerous but can qualify as a "danger angle" such things are: being a musician, having a motorcycle, or dressing in an extreme style. It also can help if the girls parents don't like the man at first - sometimes this can provide enough danger to keep her interested. However, as the relationship progresses the man will need to win the hearts of the parents in order to increase his stability level.
As time goes on, stability becomes increasingly important. A man must usually sacrifice higher levels of danger in order to maintain higher levels of stability. Women tend to favor danger in the initial stages of a relationship, but desire stability as they invest more of themselves into the relationship. As their interests increase, so does their desire to preserve what they have invested. There are some women that feed off danger and chaos because of traumatic events in their past. Unless the man is the type who has the stamina to undertake an extensive project, 'chaos women' are to be avoided as they are very taxing and require vast amounts of energy and resources to rehabilitate.
Regarding the danger angle, some men make the mistake of trying to be 'mysterious' or 'dark' nay, even 'depressed' and hoping that this type of danger will net them a prize catch. More often than not this type of danger only puts off the quality women as it appears to be very high maintenance. Most women do not want projects, they want to be romanced and depression is not romantic. Even of those few women who do want projects, most do not want to deal with a person who is depressed. Avoid this danger angle at all costs! If this approach attracts any women at all it is more likely to attract the 'chaos women' whom this author has previously recommended avoiding." | | |
