And earlier, I think I misused the word 'crutch'. Crutches aren't bad, necessarily. I have admitted as much that when I was first making my transition from normal guy to whatever I am now I leveraged my fuckbuddy/roommate into other lays. Having a sure thing made it a lot easier to approach and interact with women because I was going to get laid no matter what.
But two things to clarify...
I think 'excuse' is the word I meant to use. Way too many guys are making excuses why they are not getting with women, and it is easier to blame your lack of bling or whatever for your lack of success rather than sucking it up and making it happen because you are a cool guy with inherent value.
And thinking you are demonstrating higher value because you can flash bling is lame, lame, lame. If you have to have anything external to try to impress some woman you are coming from a weak position. You can argue with me or try to justify it to yourself however you like, but you are, really.
