Usher in a New Way of Thinking…

Women are NOT attracted to WEAK men and this not in reference to physical ability.

Here are a few examples of how we guys act HUMDRUM pathetically giving away their power and chance of success with women.

1) Calling Her Way Too Often

If you like someone, you may think it’s a good idea to let them know as often as possible. Wrong.

Calling someone all the time usually denotes a level of insecurity and neediness.

This is the perfect way to scare off a chick before you
even get with her.

2) Offer To Take Her Somewhere “Nice”

What do most guys offer up when they meet a Hot Chick?

After boring her to death with inane conversation about their jobs, past educational experiences and how their family behaved last weekend. They finally work up enough courage to ask her to go to a really “nice” place. Reverse roles for a second and imagine being in this situation with a girl that’s not that attractive. Doesn’t it sound like she’s trying to bribe you with food? Hot Chicks don’t react well to bribery.

When asking a girl out, make it seem like you were going to that venue with her or without her. You almost want to make it seem like it may even be an inconvenience to bring her along. Take this approach and guess who doesn’t appear so needy all of a sudden.

3) Do “Thoughtful” Things From The Beginning

If you come into the situation on your knees, you appear just like every other predictable loser who has ever
tried to make himself look better by giving gifts
food, or favors in exchange for attention and
approval. She is NOT Cleopatra!

4) Tell Her How You “Feel” About Her Early On

I think every man was born with a trigger in our mouths that prompts us to spew vitriol that lessens are chances with a chick once we start developing feelings for her.

The “Emotional Confessor” trigger is activated by strong feelings of attraction and emotion towards a woman that we can’t believe is giving us the time of day

After surveying a bevy of attractive women I realized that they all have one similar experience to
share… men just seem to love telling hot women how they feel within the first couple of dates. Nerdy and loser behaviour.

5) Continuing to Tell Her How You Feel When She Needs Space

Scenario:

You’ve meet a chick you really dig.

You do all the things necessary to decrease attraction and you prove to her that you have no clue when it comes to women.

So she decides to pull away and distance herself from you. And what do most guys do? They continue to tell her how they feel.

The thought that most guys have is, “If she
only understood how I really felt about her, then she would finally fall in love with me.”

Men, stop having emotional responses to situations.  It fucks up our thinking process and makes us do all the wrong things.

Stop Sabotaging yourself.

I’D RATHER BE HATED FOR WHO I AM THAN LOVED FOR WHO I’M NOT

Men, when your out there this crazy world laden with ulterior social motives, try to refrain from being too much of a push-over when interacting with people.  Having a strong frame and unshakable confidence should be habitual,  even if you may be wrong.  ‘Being strong in the wrong’ will definitely earn you more points with people and more specifically women.  Don’t be a ‘flip-flopper’, its not congruent with the behavior of an Alpha Male.  If changes need to be made, make them in private and don’t always give others the benefit of seeing you conflicted.  If anything, acknowledge there point and promise them that you will devote sometime to thinking it over.  This is the essence of being a man and not a pussy. I would of respected Kanye West more if he stuck to his psychotic position and decided to boycott award shows altogether due to his perceived injustices in voting.  Instead, he did the opposite, he chose to quiver and sulk like a toddler while apologizing for his irrational stupidity on NATIONAL TV during a Leno interview.  Bad form Kanye, bad form.

KEYS TO THE VIP & PIZZA HUT “WING” UP

WingStreet’s Ultimate Wingman Playbook

Take one for the team, so your buddy can live the dream

In celebration of the launch of WingStreet — an award winning line-up of authentic, intensely flavoured chicken wings — Pizza Hut is honouring the Art of the Wing.

Working together with skilled pick-up artists and hosts of The Comedy Network’s hilarious reality series Keys to the VIP, Pizza Hut developed this WingStreet Wingman Playbook to help Canadian wingmen from far and wide improve their game. Read on to learn about tried and true tips and techniques for successfully carrying out a wingman mission.

Foolproof plays

· Slay the Dragon (so your buddy can get to the princess!) — if the girl your pal is hitting on has friends that aren’t being attended to, it could jeopardize the mission. The best wingmen are prepared to “slay the dragon”; entertaining and distracting her friends while he makes his move (this play is also known as “falling on the grenade”).

Bonus tip: this is also a great opportunity to sell your buddy to her friends by explaining what a cool and sweet guy he is.

· The truck — part way through the mission, take a moment to make this statement: “I’d step in front of a truck for this guy”. Be as serious as possible. By demonstrating the high esteem you hold your friend in, no one else in the group will think otherwise.

· Wingman signals — pre-establish subtle signals over beer and wings before you head out. Eye contact, hand signals and body language that will indicate your position to your bro

(for example: a quick role of the eyes can mean divert mission).

You’ll have your turn – tonight is all about helping out your bro

· Big up your buddy — bring up endearing qualities and stories about your buddy in a way that it sounds like you’re making fun of him, but is actually endearing in her eyes. Talk about things like him being close with his family, or spending time with his grandmother. These things will melt her heart, and his bashfulness (if played right) will be the buffalo wing to your blue cheese dip.

· Don’t steal the show — one of the worst things you can do while winging a buddy is compete with him. Under no circumstances should you try to hijack the conversation or get all the attention. Put away any jealousy or animosity you may feel. You’ll get your turn, don’t be greedy.

Bonus tip: if you suddenly feel that you’re the center of attention, start acting obnoxious so her attention is directed back to your buddy.

· Have no shame — possibly the number one feature a great wingman must possess is the lack of a particular social quality — shame. You must not fear humiliation while playing the role of the wingman. Don’t be afraid to play the fool and temporarily damage your own reputation in order for him to close the deal.

WingStreet’s Ultimate Wingman Top Ten Tips

Wingman Prep

· Look good – shower! — if you look bad, you’ll both look bad. Put some effort into it. Shower, make sure your hair and clothing look good.

· Be prepared (carry a wingman toolkit) — a good wingman always comes prepared with pens, paper, protection, napkins and gum or breath mints

Bonus tip: subtly let your buddy know if his breath stinks by offering gum to the group

No matter what, do not…:

· Don’t be a downer — leave your personal problems at home when out winging it. Women can smell bad vibes from across the room. Smile and talk to someone. It’s important to always look like you’re having a good time.

· Don’t settle for any wingman, choose a friend — Kind of like how a talented basketball team won’t win games if it has bad chemistry, choosing a wingman that you have nothing in common with for the sole purpose of picking-up will gravely affect your interactions.

Fact: the women you pick up can tell whether or not you and your wingman really like each other, and will trust you based on your ability to commit to a friendship.

The secret weapon

· The WingWOMAN — this may surprise some people, but the greatest wingman is actually a wingwoman. A wingwoman makes other women feel more comfortable with you because she provides proof that you are not a creep. The wingwoman also helps create the jealousy angle that women love. Women don’t want a man that no other woman wants.

And never forget to thank your Wingman!

· Return the favour — winging is a two-way street. No one should have to play wingman all the time. In order for a wingman relationship to work flawlessly, time spent as wingman and lead-guy must be divided up evenly (unless of course, you have a girlfriend).

· Treat them to wings and beer — visit WingStreet.ca to order up a round of wings and prove your appreciation to your wingman.

· Enter him to win the WingStreet Ultimate Wingman Competition!!! — what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. Enter your wingman for a chance to win an ultimate winging adventure that no one has to know about!

CYNICISM AND CIVILITY

Sometimes in life we allow our inner thoughts to escape and effect the way we behave.  Guess what guys…Stop it. I’ve usually directed this advice to the females, however, its just as applicable to all my brothers out there.

Yes, women can be golddiggers.  Yes, women can be evil. Yes, you’ve been hurt and it shouldn’t of happened.  However! Dont ever let your Cynicism compromise your Civility. Always…be a gentlemen.  Go ahead and Cuss and yell in private, but when you re in a social setting or with her, always present the picture of a cool, calm and collected individual.  There’s nothing sexier to a woman than composure.

This best Vodka ever….

Terrorist Cells pay attention, I gotta a REAL ’sleeper’ for you.  With a 40% alcohol content comparable to popular brands such a Grey Goose, it excels due to his smooth “non-burning” drinkability.  It also has a lower price point then its counterparts.  They left the bottle simple and focused on the contents.  Substance over style.  Ladies and Gentlemen, straight from Poland, I present to you….ZUBROWKA!

Phone Game: She didn’t return the call…

Cool or Tool?

Whats your opinion?

Feel Free To Blow Off Some Steam…

Guys….

Let me start of my stating my position very clearly.  I have absolutely no intention of humiliating anybody via this website.  It would absolutely counter-intuitive to what I’m trying to accomplish.  I am dedicated to helping you!  Please believe me.  If you want discretion with regards to a certain personal issue I will not post about it.  You can scour the site for evidence that says otherwise….

Now, with that out of the way…I encourage all those who are frustrated and without answers to contact me.  I AM and have always been a sympathetic ear to all those in need.  Feel free to “blow off some steam” when you feel the dating “Matrix” has got you down.

Advanced Attraction Arts Boot Camp

This is not a Gimmick.  This is not a cash grab.  This is not a waste of time!

What this is, is an opportunity to change YOUR life.  What you will experience is an awakening.  “The Art of Charm” will reach down into your very spiritual being and extract the perfection that lies deep within you.  Its a spiritual awakening that only a very few can do their own, and if they do accomplish it, 9 times out of 10 its as result of a near death experience.

Allow “The Art of Charm” to help forgo the trauma and help you accomplish the creation of the ‘new you!’  Instead of feeling invincible 3 or 4 times a month, imagine feeling that way every day.  At an A.O.C bootcamp you will learn:

1.  How to overcome the most difficult obstacle on your path to success….you.

2. How to effectively change and control your perspective/mind-frame. For example, diminishing the jeopardy and importance of most social interactions to the point where they often become meaningless activities.

3. How to become an “Alpha Male’ despite your physical appearance.

“Who we are never changes.  Who we think we are does.”

4. How to effectively approach new people.

5. How to engage in smooth transitions between curious stranger, friend and lover in pair-bonding frames.

6. How to emit powerful sexual energy.

“The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable man persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.  Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man..”

7. About Woman and the K-I-S-S principle.

8. Neuro-Linguistic Programming aka The Science of Speech

9. Classic Seduction Related Theories

10. ……and much, much more! lol.

“Life Is change. Growth is optional. Choose wisely. Choose ‘The Art of Charm’”
