He's exactly the type that should be on this forum. He's a person that has relationships and likes having them.

So many people on here never have them and even eschew them, yet they want to rant about how they don't need or want them. That's messed up.

The world would be better if he spent 15 minutes of that 3 hrs a day he spends in the gym cutting his hair.

Nah that's actually not a very hard physique to obtain, now to MAINTAIN would involve cutting out the carbs. Its the guys that look like hulking gorillas that spend 80% of their time on their image.

Im just gonna throw this one out there but Im as straight as an arrow and I think that guys got a slammin body. lol

Like I said earlier its an age thing. If that guy walked up to girls his age on the beach looking just like that he would have a collection of phone numbers.

How many other guys would look at that and think she was an easy target for sex only?
Then there are those who think: hooker, easy, desperate, tramp...etc

Your attempt at sarcasm is really not funny because of all the other men and maybe including you who have those thoughts about women dressed like that in the dating photos.

As far as the men goes, who knows, so many of the muscle guys think they are unique in the way they look so they are showing off and boosting their own ego. In reality they are as unique as the next guy in the next online dating profile with a photo that is similar.

So that's the source of any disagreement. Birds of a feather flock together. I'm not in your flock, and neither is the type of girl I'd want to be with.
What kind of girls do you like? I've been on dates with pharmacists, nurses, I used to hang out with a Lawyer who had degree's from Harvard, Berkley, and one other ivy league school I can't recall, she lived a few floors above me and actually initiated everything.. I've hung out with girls active into all types of different sports, activities, music, religions, etc...

However, one thing I DO agree with, is the part that my advice may not always work for someone else. Mostly due to personality, looks, etc. I have a very outgoing and humorous personality, if someone else tried all of the things I do, and delivered it entirely wrong, they would just face plant.

Either way, a lot of advice I give can still be universal and a general guideline for everyone. One of my soft, quiet, middle eastern friends moved to LA a year or so ago and was having a very hard time dating. He hadn't dated many women in his life. I create a dating profile for him, I picked the pictures, I wrote the profile, I messaged some of the women and gave him advice on everything to do, and within a month or so he was dating a very attractive women who he dated for several months. He is nothing like me, but we were still able to make something work out of it.

My advice won't work for everyone obviously, but many of the guys here need to work on themselves most of all and it will make it much easier.

I don't disagree with you. The best advice I've received are from older, more mature people who have had a variety of relationships. It's the lack of empathy, the lack of understanding, the "you must do XZY to be successful" types (as if it's all black and white like that), the "dating is a vicious game of natural selection" types that rub me the wrong way.

Ive always had a serious issue with the fact that our society has a negative word for girls who like sex. Girls should be allowed to enjoy sex just like guys are without society's judgement, but then again Im pretty liberal in my views.

Geeze Debbie downer over here..

I am far more muscular than that guy and I lift 2-3 days a week for around an hour a day.. His physique really wouldn't take much work other than some lifting and a decent diet.
