Are You Building A False Image?
All you’ve got to do is figure this out, and you’ll be in good shape, right?
Maybe.
First, remember that attraction, deep physical and emotional attraction is an instinct. Sure, the longer you’re in a relationship with somebody, and the more you get to know each other, and the more you learn to respect and support each other, you can certainly “grow to love them.”
And certainly this is the way relationships were built for most of human history. That instant lust that we all sometimes confuse for love wasn’t there in the beginning. It was a long, slow process.
But these days, you’d need to belong to some crazy religious cult or seriously consider one of those mail order bride websites to get together with somebody you barely know.
Which means in order to create a decent relationship, you’ve got to be able to create real attraction.
And once again, keep in mind this is an instinct.
Consider another instinct. Hunger. If you are hungry, you might not be sure what you want. You certainly can’t predict what you would like. Sure you might try and scan your memory to some of the things you’ve eaten in the recent past, or maybe imagine a few restaurants in your neighborhood.
But this is only an approximation. A conscious guess of how your unconscious will respond to a certain stimuli.
You could not even know you’re hungry, and then suddenly somebody puts a plate of food in front of you that you’ve never seen, and suddenly it’s your favorite dish!
This is an instinct, and we simply can’t predict how we’ll respond to certain stimuli unless it’s in front of us.
When creating attraction in women, this presents a few problems.
No woman is going to know how she’ll feel about any guy until she interacts with him. Pictures won’t do it. A copy of his resume won’t do it. Even his ultra polite behavior on a first date won’t do it.
So asking her what kind guy she likes is kind of pointless. Or even dangerous if you listen to her answer and assume it’s actually true.
This would be like you saying you’d like to eat a cheeseburger, and then suddenly wolfing down a plate of chicken wings. You weren’t lying, you were only guessing. But somebody who was busily cooking you a cheeseburger based on what you said wouldn’t really understand.
So trying to figure out what women want, and then trying to figure out how to turn yourself into that person is not a great strategy.
So what is?
Just talk to as many woman as you can. Find the one that is turned on by the natural you. And who spurs the natural desire in you for her.
It may take a while, but when you find her, you’ll be glad you put in the effort.
