Cracking the code - trying to get a woman
Posted: 6/20/2007 3:12:05 AM
I don't know about you, but the whole thing about trying to get a woman feels like trying to crack the ****ing enigma code. One false move and you're dead - no matter how well you've done up to that point. As such, what are the best books out there on understanding women and what makes them tick?

I've read that book, it's brilliant,. couldn't put it down lol Got a few of John Gray's other self help books too, which haven't read yet.
But, it's a book you have to keep re-reading to refresh your memory lol
Makes you understand things a bit more, about the opposite sex, but doesn't make you more knowledgeable, experience does that in the end

Stonecastle: - It's not written by a woman, he's had inspiration from his wife, but totally written by John Gray himself.
Another book i found great and quite amusing was:
'He's just not that into you' (the no-excuse truth to understanding guys) by Greg Behrendt & Liz Tuccilo - sex and the city style, gives insight for men and women, and what they actually mean when they say something!

that women are an enigma is the biggest load of horseshit...

they aren't to me... at least not generally speaking. There are individuals that I occasionally encounter that leave me looking baffled but that happens no more with women than it does with men.

you just have to understand what makes people tick. What they like and what they don't like. It's not gender specific.

though of course you can't burst the bubble of mystery that surrounds the female of the species thanks to this common misconception because they like being mysterious...lol

(rolls eyes and tuts) women huh?

lol

Women? An Enigma?

Pshaw! No more than men, I'd say.

Women ARE very complicated, and somewhat incomprehensible - womens heads are messy places. I know, cos I'm in one.

I'm guessing that mens head may be just as confusing when looked at from the inside.

(rolls eyes and tuts) men, huh?

Forget books all women are different! What works for one doesnt work for another the best thing to do is get out there and chat to a few! Go on a singles nite out and chat to a few if you find you have something in common then it will be easier

^^^^^^^

thats the nail on the head stoney.....

books and seduction courses might give your ego a boost, but when were they written (or conceived)....

IMO you will find 'scripted' techniques will just make you sound like a C0ck.

Then again.... if you think that courses and books will help you 'get women', I find it somewhat disrespectful somehow.

Just be yourself, I think women might appreciate it a bit more than a library of seduction/pulling tips.

All women are different but also very much the same inside...

their is a way to improve your skills at picking up women, i have spent years working people, women and social dynamics out....

Women are very different form men and most of us fail to reailse this

For a start men need to be men and not nice kiss arse buying girls in bars drinks, too many guys are just nice to women all the time and hope they will like them

be yourself guys, be confident, enjoy yourself don't focus all your attention on that one girl you'v known for only 5 mins

Women like a man to be able to be secure in himself, to be confident, to not be afraid of his own shadow.

After all a womens mind is programmed to find the strongest (alpha) male

imagine in stone age when men had to fight and hunt for woman and child, so therefore a womans mind is hard wired to find the best possible suitor for her and her child (or future child),
is she gonna choose the nice guy who makes her feel nice, or the bad boy who can make her feel a whole range of feelings and emotions and take her on wild adventures (brad Pitt an example)

Women are human too lol, alot of guys just need to come out of their shell

Stoney, it's written by a man - John Gray. And if it was written by a woman, why would that be a bad thing?

I found the book enlightening and very frustrating, it got hurled across the room on more than one occasion. Despite that, I learned a lot.

The worst thing you can do when wanting a partner is to appear to want it too much, nobody (man or woman) finds neediness/clinginess attractive. Treat everyone with care and respect and you might make a few friends, which is always a good thing. Tone down the hunting a bit a see what happens.

it's not an exam that you have to sudy for stonecastle.
i don't think you 'll find anything but confusion by reading a book about women.

they are just people ... try not to think about the differences and how to approach and what to do or say or what not to say.

just be yourself .. it's all anyone can be ... and don't try too hard ...

there is, allegedly, someone out there for everyone .... there is also the possibility that the someone could be living in a tin shack on the other side of the world with no internet connection ... but she could also be just around the corner.

keep the faith

Such a book has never been written..

Every woman/man is different..What you may say or do that would impress one woman/man wont necesarrily do the same to another..

As said on this forum many times before, just be yourself..If that doesnt work, your fooked...Or not as the case may be..

Good Housekeeping is a monthly publication available in all good newsagents and could be just the thing you're looking for.

Don't try and 'understand' a woman's psyche, it's not possible ... Books can only offer the authors view on the women they have encountered.. Don't approach a woman as if she is an exam you have been revising for and studying carefully ... She will run for the hills... Take a step back, admit you know bugger all about us girls and we will warm to you ....

I've had the most success with women when I'm not even looking or coming onto them.

I guess they find me a challenge, or a mystery, and come and chat me up, or seek me out when they are being hit on by other guys (as a means to escape the morons hitting on her).

Sometimes they just want to be with someone who is chilled and has no ulterior motives, someone they can get on with and is a good conversationalist.

Of course, you have to move in social circles where you are around other females and are at ease in their company, give off comfortable vibes, and have a genuine smile.

It all depends on how they see you, and let them make the choice and decision to speak to you, or at least let them think that, and you just happen to be there for them to turn to.

vvvvvvvvvv
Thanks SJS!
