Yes, I think that's true. I misunderstood what you meant by luck.

Men: do not listen to women for advice on dating. They do not understand their own murky desires and they will lead you down a very long, lonely road. Just be a) narcissistic b) flippant and c) charismatic. That's all you really need.
This just screams insecurity. You will attract some equally insecure women playing that game.

I've seen girls pull that attitude too and the fake confidence was just sad to watch.

Jefetio, it's a consequence of the female evolutionary preselection function. (This is also the only hypothesis with any explanatory power; the majority of men who've ever lived have not reproduced). Women will say "Oh, not all of us like that" / "That's just party girls" etc. etc. but it's a seamless quality that all women possess. *******-like behavior signals a quality male who'll be capable of protecting her offspring (human beings are not an exception to every other mammal on the planet in this regard). It also has a self-reinforcing aspect; mothers want their sons to have the traits that make men successful with women, so those ******* traits are constantly selected.

Obviously this poses a problem: not all men can be socially dominant or the "most attractive". So in the past we put constraints on women's tempestuous sexuality, giving the majority of men a chance at reproducing. It takes a civilization and a set of moral parents to raise a feral little female into a proper lady who knows better than to follow her 'gina tingles. Most girls today are not of this standard (for the record, I'm 21).

Eh, whenever I want to scold a 21-year-old I remember I was married at 22. I grew up a lot in my 20s.

I already know all of that crap. It's readily available to anyone with access to the internet.

Life experience beats anything you'll learn burying yourself online. Once you get some it'll be a lot easier to open your mind and put all that evolutionary BS in perspective.

Another quick tip: if a girl's getting on your nerves, just act like the archetypical nice guy. Be the gentlest gentleman who ever gentled his way through life. It's almost funny how fast it sends them running the other way.

hmmmm...only a fool would utter such nonsense.

To paraphrase Mark Twain, "When I was a boy my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I became a man I was astonished at how much he had learned in seven years."

Seriously trying to help you tangy -

you don't know half of what you think you do, and acknowledging that would go a long way toward helping you become a real man.

LIke I said earlier, there is still time, but you've got to get busy working on it instead of wasting time defending stuff you'll laugh at yourself for in 10 years (if you really grow up in that time)
