I fully concur, G. But sometimes we gotta go into fight, in order to grow some cajones and get strong game.
I don't do well with the 'ok' text to lizards even though that's a style that works.
I agree fully with Hen that sometimes, we need to let lizards know what time it is exactly.
I had a Ghanaian lizard that I had to check last year but my regrets is that I kind of beta'd out when I cancelled on her. She responded to me late last year in the fall via text (usually in the summer here, lizards exercise their strongest options and then fall back on their betas in the winter).
When she re-contacted me, I told her, if she is not coming to my place, then we have nothing else to talk about, standard. I'm not interested in making female friends just for the sake of it. Unless the personality gels with mine, I don't hang out with women to get wow'ed by their beauty, regardless of how fine she is.
I've never been on that. If she ain't attainable then she is as good as butt ugly in my books.
No 'ok' and no 'sure, whenever'. Let her know that you stand a certain way and that as a king (which we all are), you don't put up from rubbish from your subjects.
It actually makes it better for other cats too (even though some cats don't care about reciprocity). That means when we pick up a lizard that has been around, she will already conduct herself in a respectful fashion and not be into wasting time.
Long time lurker. Great forum. Already learned a lot.
I like the way HC handled this chick, not so much because she was taking him for a sucker and he shouldn't stand for that (though for that too) but because of what Moma says here (the bolded): it makes it better for other guys (and better for you when other guys do the same thing). If more guys acted like this I seriously doubt Toronto (where I currently live) could be as bad as it is. When broads keep dealing with guys they can sucker around, they assume every guy is a sucker.
Great point. I wholeheartedly agree.
I actually think DC and Toronto women are a rare breed not just in NA, but in the world.
None of the ground rules that apply to women generally work at all in DC.
A pure alpha male would not survive in DC.
The women here are practically men, and many don't even try to disguise it.
They are bold, ambitious, and completely lack femininity. They wear what they want, say what they want, eat what they want, and could care less what a man thinks about it. They simply exist for themselves and no one else.
A normal alpha male actually has to incorporate some beta behavior to be at all successful in DC. Even so, that "success" is entirely relative. The best he might be able to do is what might be considered a 6 in NYC, LA, or Miami.
I don't even disagree with the input from guys like Pitt and El Mechanico regarding this situation. It's just that it doesn't have any relevance in DC.
That's one of the reasons I love to travel so much, even within the US. There's no woman as deplorable as the breed of woman in DC.
Going forward, there should be a disclaimer on all threads related to women here. Toronto could arguably be mentioned alongside, but I still don't think it's as bad as DC.
