Should You Dump Her?

2011-07-07T15:30:00.000+08:00

"Say NO to say YES to something better."

- Unknown

Hey guys!

It's been around 4 months since I posted here and I kinda miss doing this stuff.

I apologize for the long wait. It's just that I'm kinda busy with my new job as a Guidance Counselor and was conducting a lot of seminars and what nots lately.

Anyhow, here's my new treat for you.

THE ABILITY TO DUMP WOMEN.

Lol.

Yes, you've read it right.

No, its not a typo.

And yes, you can dump that girl instead of you being dumped.

Lol.

I know some women might react violently to this but let me explain.

When all of us were born, we had our "factory settings" fabricated on the fiber of our beings.

One of that is our ABILITY TO SELECT.

We choose stuffs that we like. We discard stuffs that we don't like.

We eat delicious foods and ignore the not-so-delicious ones.

We make friends with amiable people and avoid the shitty ones.

In the same way, you pursue the women that you like and just make friends with the normal ones.

But the question is: Do you really have to continue pursuing that woman you like/love?

NOT ALL THE TIME.

Why is that?

If she's acting shitty and just plays with you, GO DUMP HER.

If she's complicated and enjoys seeing you suffer, DUMP HER.

If she's a player and makes a fool out of you, DUMP HER.

In a nutshell, DUMP HER IF SHE'S NOT WORTH IT.

You can always hear guys who's into this stuff say that "you should have the willingness to walk away because that's how alpha males do it."

But instead of just emulating the so-called "alpha males."

Why don't you tap on your INNER AWESOMENESS instead?

And that's your NATURAL ABILITY TO CHOOSE WHAT'S BEST FOR YOU.

Okay?

So choose the best ones 'coz YOU DESERVE THE BEST THE WORLD HAS TO OFFER.

Alright?

Godspeed people! Ciao! ;)

Common Mistakes That Couples Make (Part 3)

2011-03-29T10:02:00.000+08:00

“If you wake up at a different time, in a different place, could you wake up as a different person?”

- Chuck Palahniuk

Hey guys!

It's been a while isn't it?

If you've been reading my blog for the past few months. I guess its safe to assume that you know PART 1 and PART 2 already. And if you're new, just click on the aforesaid links.

Moving on, I was planning to play a lil' April Fools Day prank on this site since I'm freakin' bored in the office right now. But I've realized that the blog defeats it's purpose if I do that.

Going back, here's one common mistake that couples make a.k.a. REASONS WHY PEOPLE BREAK UP:

CHANGING THEIR IDENTITY.

How does it "damage" your relationship?

1. It makes you lose the ORIGINAL REASON why your partner fell in love with you in the first place.

2. One might feel "trapped" by not expressing what they really want to do.

3. It will make one feel that he/she's not appreciated and accepted for who he/she is.

But let me remind you that CHANGE HAS IT'S OWN BENEFITS as well.

However, one must do it on his/her OWN FREE WILL.

And not because you requested it.

Am I making sense?

Alright, get outta here and share this on your Facebook wall or Twitter account!

Lol.

Godspeed everyone! ;)

Is She Ready for the Kiss?

2011-03-25T20:56:00.000+08:00

"A kiss can be a comma, a question mark or an exclamation point. That's basic spelling that every woman ought to know."
-- Mistinguett (Jeanne Bourgeois)
Theatre Arts, December 1955

First off, I wasn't suppose to write a new article right now.

'coz as of this writing, I was feeling lazy and I'm busy checking out Captain America videos on Youtube, as well as checking out Spotify.

It (Spotify) kinda reminds me of Limewire by the way.

Going back, just a few days ago, there's this Istoryan* who posted a thread asking "How to test a girl if she's ready to be kissed?"

I got interested reading the topic and made a reply.

So guys, here's a repost from the website (I edited some parts by the way).

Enjoy!

There are things that you have to consider 'coz EVERY SITUATION IS DIFFERENT.

There are times that you can DIRECTLY kiss her and there are times that you have to do things GRADUALLY.

Instinct will just tell you if you can go direct, but most of the time, girls won't like it if you "jump" from level 0 to level 10.

So how do you kiss her gradually then?

Escalate slowly by:

1. Holding her hand (if she allows you, its a sign that you MAY put your arms over her shoulders)

2. Arms on shoulder (next is...yeah, you guessed it right, HUG)

3. Hug

4. Kiss on the forehead

5. Kiss on the cheeks

6. Kiss on the lips

By the way, there are times that you can just discard kissing the forehead or cheeks. There are also times that you can just SMELL HER HAIR then go directly for the lips.

That is, if she doesn't RESIST your advances.

If she does resist you and you still push things, that's HARASSMENT.

So please, escalate wisely.

How Would You Know If She Has A Boyfriend?

2011-03-22T20:05:00.000+08:00

First off, I would like to share what happened a few days ago.

I was browsing Facebook Zero (it's free browsing without the pictures by the way) on my mobile phone and I got intrigued why a lot of people hated Rebecca Black.

A cousin of mine even posted her video and hated her.

I was like, "Guys, give this girl a break."

(Again, I had no idea who she was or what she did since I wasn't able to view the pictures and videos on my phone)

By the way, I saw here video today. And as of this writing, it has 249,774 dislikes in Youtube.

Going back, I never hated the video.

I just find it funny.

That's all.

But you might ask, "What does Rebecca got to do with your article?"

None.

I just want to increase its traffic.

(I apologize for pissing you guys off. Don't attack me with a F-15 jet.)

Lol.

Seriously, a friend of mine texted me while I was reading my cousin's post on Facebook.

He asked me how to check if the girl he likes has a boyfriend.

He gave me the idea to post this article.

So I told him, "You don't have to ask her."

Because in the first place, SHE WILL TELL YOU IF SHE'S NOT INTERESTED.

There are two things that you have to keep in mind:

1. A woman tells a guy that she has a boyfriend because SHE REALLY DOESN'T LIKE YOU; or

2. She really has one.

But you might protest by asking me, "But I really wanna know!"

Okay, you win. I give up.

Here's what you have to do.

Ask her in a SUBTLE YET CREATIVE manner.

How?

You can tell her, "Hey, I saw you yesterday. You and your boyfriend were kissing torridly at Mcdonald's while the kids around you were looking."

(Please deliver it in a funny way if you don't want to get slapped.)

And she replies with, "That wasn't me. I never went at Mcdonald's with my boyfriend yesterday."

Tada!

Do you understand what I'm saying?

Okay, what would you do if she just replied with "It wasn't me?"

Again, be SUBTLE AND CREATIVE.

You can say, "Oh, so it was your brother then?"

Lol.

Guys, it's really up to you. I don't wanna spoon-feed you with lines.

The guys who's naturally good with women are using their OWN brain and doesn't purely rely on lines used or advised by other guys.

Got it?

Okay, get outta here!

Lol.

Ciao!

P.S. If you like my blog, kindly share it on Facebook or Twitter. Thanks! ;)

Why Do Women Play Hard to Get?

2011-03-02T22:04:00.000+08:00

test - the means by which the presence, quality, or genuineness of anything is determined; a means of trial. http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/test

This concept right here makes men wonder if the girl is really attracted to him or if she's just playing hard to get.

Let me tell you this brothers:

THEY'RE NOT PLAYING HARD TO GET.

(Of course, there's always an exception commonly known as THEY JUST DON'T LIKE YOU.)

Lol.

But kidding aside, why do women behave so?

The answer is: THEY'RE JUST TESTING MEN (unconsciously or consciously).

It is a DEFENSE MECHANISM imprinted on their genes.

They're trying to test you for the following reasons:

1. If you're just another guy trying to get inside her pants.

2. She's screening you if you can actually pass her standards.

3. They test your congruency if you're just acting really nice.

So how do you pass the TEST?

Simple, don't try to pass it by winning her approval.

For example, if she says, "Look, there's a sexy chic who just passed by."

You respond with something like, "Yeah, I know. She bit her lips when she looked at me."

If she says, "I don't want a serious relationship."

You respond with, "Oh, so you're one of those kinds. I don't like you anymore. You're just after my body."

And by the way, please deliver it with HUMOR.

But you might ask, what are we trying to accomplish?

PASSING HER TEST.

Duh.

Seriously, aside from conveying that you're UNSHAKABLE, you're also telling her that you're not just some guy who will lie to her just to get her.

CONGRUENCE is the key.

I hope I can explain this any further, but I need to sleep now.

Hope you learned something.

Godspeed everyone!

Common Mistakes That Couples Make (Part 2)

2011-03-01T17:18:00.000+08:00

"Always make your absence felt in such a way that somebody misses you, but don't let your absence be so long that somebody starts learning to live without you."

First off, I want to apologize for delaying this post; 'coz aside from being busy for the past few weeks, I'm also feeling kinda lazy nowadays.

(For part 1, click here)

Anyway, here's one common mistake that couples make:

SPENDING TOO MUCH TIME TOGETHER.

It may be counterintuitive since most couples want to spend time together (especially if the relationship is new).

BUT TOO MUCH OF SOMETHING IS BAD.

Case in point:

Guy visits/dates Girl every day for 3 months.

Both of them are not doing the stuffs (hobbies, passion, etc.) that they formerly enjoy ALONE.

Both of them somehow lose their identity.

Guy and the relationship becomes predictable.

Girl gets bored.

Worst case scenario: one of them cheats.

Did you understand what happened?

Get this, LOSING YOUR IDENTITY is bad for the relationship 'coz your identity made your partner fall in love with you in the first place.

Further, BOREDOM triggers the need to seek for FUN and ADVENTURE.

So what's the action plan?

Do yourself a favor and give yourselves THE GIFT OF ABSENCE.

I'm feeling lazy again, just read the quote on top of this page.

That's it for now.

Godspeed everyone.

How to Build your Relationships?

2011-02-22T19:16:00.000+08:00

"Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success."

- Henry Ford

Or how to make it last forever.

Cheesy huh?

Or how to make it last longer?

Sounds better?

Lol.

On a serious note, let me share one concept that I use every time I'm in a relationship.

According to one article I've read in college, Psychologists suggest that building a strong relationship with your partner is done by doing SHARED ADVENTURES.

Aside from separating yourself from the other guys that she dated in the past, it also makes the relationship FUN AND EXCITING.

Here's a personal example:

Back in the day, me and my ex-girlfriend used to plan on "monthly dates."

(They're not your usual dates like dinner and movies since its a SPECIAL MONTHLY EVENT.)

We listed things that we want to do or places that we want to visit.

You can list anything.

It can be traveling, ziplining, karting, ice skating, etc.

Be crazy.

Have fun.

Or it can be as simple as making your own meals...

Or movie marathons...

Or stargazing at a nearby mountain...

AS LONG AS YOU BOTH HAVE FUN.

The main purpose of this is not just to compile loads of pictures.

Nor to try new things.

Yes, it can be your "informal team building."

But the true purpose of this is to CREATE MEMORIES.

Memories that will serve as your "SEEDS" in planting positive emotions towards one another and eventually, STRENGTHEN YOUR RELATIONSHIP.

Have a great day everyone.

How To Position Yourself With Women That You Like?

2011-02-17T16:10:00.000+08:00

Position (noun) - situation or condition, especially with relation to favorable or unfavorable circumstances. http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/position

Positioning is a concept in Marketing that I have been using around 2001.

But during those years, I had no idea that they use that concept in Marketing.

Anyhow, if you want to meet the women that you like, you have to position yourself to where they flock.

BE IN THEIR "ECOSYSTEM."

I accidentally learned this when I was new in town.

My friend and I were "competing" at a local mall of who knows more beautiful women from the local exclusive girls schools during that time.

Unfortunately for me, I originally lived at Makati.

Therefore, I lost.

But the good thing about that is I learned to position myself to those women.

I've met people who knows women who are studying on my "target" schools.

Made friends even with the not-so-good-looking ones (they can be your "doorway" to the cute ones).

And eventually joined organizations that made me a better person and somehow met people effortlessly.

So if you like nurses, meet people who are working on hospitals; If you want to have a model for a girlfriend, know where they flock; if you like the sporty types, go to a gym.

The list goes on.

(This concept also applies to women by the way.)

But let me warn you.

DON'T BE A WALLFLOWER.

Let them see you positively.

Excel in those "ecosystems."

Be the person that they want.

Let them admire you.

Be a winner.

And lastly, DO IT FOR YOURSELF, not for them.

Remember, DEVELOP YOUR "BUILT-IN" ATTRACTIVENESS.

Godspeed.

The Truth About Revenge

2011-02-12T18:14:00.000+08:00

"An eye for an eye would make the whole world blind." -- Mahatma Gandhi

Hey guys!

It's been a while since I posted a new topic.

Anyhow, I'm back and I'm here to discuss to you one realization that I gained from observing friends or friends of friends.

The Truth About Revenge

They say that "Revenge is Sweet."

But if you analyze it carefully, it's not.

Again, IT'S NOT.

It is because that REVENGE IS A VICIOUS CYCLE.

What do I mean by that?

Let me give you an example:

Michelle's boyfriend cheated on her. She was really angry for what her boyfriend did to her. Eventually she will "learn" that men are jerks, they can't be trusted, everybody lies, and so on.

So she takes revenge on the whole male population by playing with them as well.

End of story.

Kidding aside, REVENGE IS LIKE MATH.

1 x 10 = 10 right?

10 x 10 = 100

Agree?

Let say Michelle became a player for a span of time. Played with 10 different men. The 10 ex-boyfriends of Michelle becomes a player and played with 10 different women as well.

Am I making sense here?

I know its awful.

It's painful.

It hurts.

BUT LET THE VICIOUS CYCLE END WITH YOU.

So instead of wasting your time playing with other people, PREPARE YOURSELF TO BECOME A BETTER PERSON.

It's like hitting two birds with one stone.

You're preparing for "The One" and at the same time, you just proved that IT'S THEIR LOSS.

So say this with me...

"Revenge ends with me."

Godspeed everyone!

Surround Yourself with Winners

2011-01-29T19:52:00.000+08:00

Or should I say “Stop Hanging Out with Losers?”

Lol.

As of this writing, I just came out of a meeting with my manager and we were discussing about training branches for our newly hired supervisors.

He was telling me to modify the training programs that I made by reassigning some trainees to a better branch to prevent “bad fruits” from influencing the “good fruits.”

When he elaborated, he used the following analogies:

Students who enrolled in a bad school, later failed in passing a licensure exam, and eventually have a hard time in landing a job.

A religious person hanging out with a group of robbers.

“Tell me who your friends are, and I’ll tell you who you are.”

Satorai!

(“A-ha experience”)

His examples were so good that I was reminded of the lessons I learned in college.

The point that he was trying to tell me is that people “acculturate” to the environment they’re in. We adjust to its culture, we become influenced by it, and somewhat shape our personalities.

In the same way, you’ll likely become a “loser” if you’re hanging out with them most of the time.

Of course there are exceptions on a case to case basis.

Okay, let me give you my definition of the word “loser.”

Losers are people who are narrow minded and judge anyone right away…

Losers are people who are shallow, immature, and have unrealistic expectations with life….

Losers pull others down so they go up on the status ladder…

Losers are needy and insecure people…

Losers settle for less…

Losers settle for second class behaviors…

Losers dream small…

And so on…

Am I making sense here?

But I’m not saying that you’re immediately tagged as a “loser” when you do those stuffs.

We are human beings. We are capable of being strong and being weak. There are times that we dream small, and there are times that we dream big. Sometimes we settle for less and sometimes we settle for more.

My point is we’re capable of committing mistakes. It’s like the Yin and Yang. That makes us human, so please don’t be too harsh with your self, ok?

(That’s a different topic by the way.)

Moving on, I believe that every one of us has his own strengths that we can harness.

Passions that we can pursue…

Talents that we can develop…

Gifts that we can share to others…

Blessings that can bless the world…

And so on…

Lastly, if you surround yourself with like minded people YOU BECOME ONE OF THEM.

And that my friends, MAKES YOU MORE ATTRACTIVE.

Substance over Form

2011-01-26T00:32:00.000+08:00

The above image was the former template that I used for this blog.

And it kinda saddens me changing its template.

But since I'm kinda new to this thing, I've decided to SIMPLIFY everything.

Besides, the content is far more important than the design.

Anyway, the reason that I'm finally sharing this blog to the world is that I don't want to take away the blessings from my readers.

I got motivated reading messages from Istoryans (Istorya.net users) asking for advice.

I was also inspired when one Istoryan told me that I helped him in successfully having his girlfriend right now. And did I tell you that he'll be proposing already?

And as of this writing, I'm guessing that their already engaged.

Wow.

I know that I'm not as good as the other coaches that I know.

I'm not even a dating coach for crying out loud.

I'm just your regular guy who studied and understands this stuff.

And the "Guy Upstairs" is telling me to be a blessing in this world.

He's telling me to TRUST.

So as much as I can, allow me to share my learnings and insights in PREPARING YOURSELF FOR THE RIGHT ONE.

So by the time you guys finally meet, YOU'LL BE READY.

God bless everyone.

Common Mistakes that Couples Make (Part 1)

2011-01-23T03:43:00.000+08:00

It's already 3:29 AM on my watch and I need to get home after 30 minutes.

Please bear with me if I have to cut this in parts.

On that note, here's one mistake that couples usually do.

INVADING ONE'S PRIVACY.

I guess you already experienced giving your password or informing your partner about your schedule from time to time and so on.

In my opinion, the aforementioned is okay.

But too much of something is not cool.

For example, if you give your password to your partner, there's this danger of him/her checking your email or Facebook account from time to time. It's dangerous 'coz eventually, he/she might feel jealous with comments or posts from people that he/she doesn't know. This could also lead to unnecessary arguments.

Besides, checking your partner's account conveys DISTRUST.

And I bet you know what happens if your partner doesn't trust you right?

So I suggest that you respect your partner's privacy.

If he/she needs to go out with her friends, just allow him/her.

Don't call/text asking who's with him/her silly.

One last story, I believe that love is like holding a chick. If your grip is too tight, it'll die. If you hold it loose, it'll escape. Therefore, HOLD IT RIGHT.

I hope I can explain this any further, but the list goes on and I'm already tired to blog

I hope I already gave you a little idea on how this work.

'nuff said.

God bless everyone.

Why Attractive by Default?

2011-01-12T19:56:00.001+08:00

Just a quick explanation.

I used to serve God at this certain community.

Made my biggest mistake and lost a loved one.

Met a different chick.

Got cheated.

Entered a seduction community.

Formed a local community (Cebu Lair) and was dubbed as the "Father" of the said group.

Got cheated again.

Met complicated women.

Got broken hearted.

Got karma.

Learned powerful life lessons.

Left the community.

As of this writing, is back in serving God.

Posts at a local forum to help other men.

Decided to help others by purifying dating theories, techniques, tips, and tactics by not being a jerk; and protecting women as well.

Lastly, decided to make this blog to build a life together with like minded people and eventually become...

ATTRACTIVE BY DEFAULT.
