“THIS is what we are up against, Ourselves …. and the emotions we don’t know how to deal with. They take hold and beat us like we stole somethin’. But boyyyyyyy,,,Whatch someone talk to women whos comfortable with themselves and strong enough to just… be vulnerble …”

Nailed it.

We find the essence of our being disturbed by being egotistical, irrationally passionate, impatient, brutal, self-critical and petrified of failure.. Accepting vulnerability (i.e. No pre-created or superfluous pick-up line masking weakness or lessening the blow that may or may not kick our ego’s ass) will lead us to our own personal confidence and freedom, which breathes life to our relationships and essentially our happiness and self-worth.

Thank You Masta’ Bishop ….This topic illudes to several other note worthy elements of dating and life. In my humble opinion you are talking about being authentic and geniune. And just about all that is genuine when most(not all) straight men see a beautiful woman is a cross between..”Mamma coo coo waaa mamma”,–A feeling of complete weakness and vulnerbilty — The thought of her naked — And — Uncontrollable excitment —
Or maybe it is lingering resentment, anger or hurt..
Now sure, almost instantaneously and unconsciously we put on a cool guy , pimp mask and convince ourselves that we’re a lion and shes a gazelle…But this is as inauthentic as is gets.
Either way,,, THIS is what we are up against, Ourselves …. and the emotions we don’t know how to deal with. They take hold and beat us like we stole somethin’. But boyyyyyyy,,,Whatch someone talk to women whos comfortable with themselves and strong enough to just… be vulnerble …or maybe even a little nervous ..A.K.A “Real” … and damn .. you won’t believe your &%$#ing eyes..

Such truth spoken like a sensei for the new age… At the club or in bars when I see guys or even girls fail miserably, it’s because the make their approach as if landing on an aircraft carrier. they make at least one pass by, then try to land on the deck of the conversation with an urgent message. that message often is about themselves and not the situation or moment. this often gets looks of “really, did they just say/ask/come at me with that..?”
I’m not saying that you shouldn’t try to land, just be mindful of the surounding metrics: atmosphere, mood, your plan/intentions, etc… but don’t be afraid of getting a “wave off” or having to wave yourself off. An eased attempt to strike up gneuine conversation will oft be more fruitful than a forced entry. Love this subject… and when applied to “people watching” in a bar it gives a great chance to put these lessons of the Master Bruce Lee to use…
