Please tell me you're not reading those awful dating books like "The Mystery Method" and "The Professional Bachelor". Seem like every talk show has had at least one episode dedicated to these silly devices. We can spot the poor guys who take these books seriously and they generally end up looking foolish.
They're not all bad! I've met quite a few guys that are in to it (Mystery Method, David DeAngelo etc) as one of my friends was big time in to it. When someone's really good at it (it takes a while, and granted those who are in the early stages of learning can come across as weirder than people who don't know anything about it, perseverance is important!) it makes flirting incredibly fun. It's not like their personality changes at all, it just gives shy guys the ability and confidence to get talking to girls they'd otherwise be scared to approach. Once the girls have become interested then they can be themselves - it just helps you to stand out in the crowd first of all and means hot girls will actually pay attention to genuinely nice guys that could make them happy but who used to be too shy to approach the girls and not physically stunning enough that the girls would chase them.
My friend runs a website where you can get a feel for what it's all about and it's worth a look (a bit of shameless self-promotion there!).
When I was about twelve, I bought "How To Get Along With Girls" from an add in the back of a comic book. It cost a dollar and was shipped in a plain envelope.
It told me to comb my hair, keep my fingernails clean, open the door for girls, and always say "please" and "thank you".
I felt cheated. It wasn't that the advice was bad, but it wasn't what I was looking for. My mother had already pounded that information into my head - for free.
It wasn't until I turned fifteen that I discovered the true secret, so for the next year I used lots of Wildroot Creme Oil and combed my hair into a DA.

Don't let this happen to you!
Is someone getting frustrated in the dating circuit?
Those books can be really helpful. I was raised by a single mom and coming up I always looked to women for advice on what women look for in a guy - which of course got me nowhere. I've been reading one of the books you mentioned and it has helped. I'm not the type to follow anyone's advice 100% and I discarded a lot of what I saw in the book, but there was also much that was helpful and effective.
I'm actually working on my own book for women so we can combat "The Game".
I'll buy a copy from you, when will you finish that book?
This is going to be fun
