First of all, I agree with you on nearly everything you said.. yes.. we all think men have this ego.. but anything you can consider to be male ego is dwarfed in the face of female ego.. don't know what i'm talking about? here are some examples of female ego that won't quit (women are just complicated, don't try to understand them, you never will.. you don't know what it feels like, you're lucky you don't have to go through what we do, i'd gladly trade places, it beats giving childbirth "makes horrid childbirth analogy".. thought so)
But, the problem lies in the fact that women want to feel like they are in control and selecting the best possible mate.. (now, nobody is saying to NOT APPROACH WOMEN).. just be careful how you approach..
When you approach a woman, and you send out indications of interest, (think about subcommunication; it's NOT flattering).. have you ever been in a bar, and had this piss-drunk ugly girl approach you, "hello, how are you tonight, you're cute, I just wanted to tell you, it's finally nice to see some quality guys in this place, what's you're name?".. you can see where it's going, and while the flattery is great for the ego, you're trying to not puke on her face as she's talking and want to run away.. this is you (as a guy) feeling uncomfortable.. but for more subtle reasons than you can understand.. (it's because SHE has selected you, prior to you feeling any attraction for her, so when she continues with her rushed advances, you go into autopilot mode and reject, you're not even open to the idea of acceptance).. think of it like being in a store and having a saleman pushing this item on you (you try to find a trillion reasons to say no to it; BUT if it's the last item in the store, you may even buy it on impulse)
Think about this for a second.. Women want to feel like they're getting the better deal; that's natural, afterall, greed is in their nature.. as it must be.. so when men DO approach women, the BIGGEST mistake they do (and i've seen it plenty) is they send out indicators of interest and send the woman into (auto-reject-get-away-from-me-please-leave-me-alone mode).. that's because on a subtle level this is what the man is implying (you are above my social value level; and I am very interested in mating with you, so I simply cannot resist this urge to tell you and gain your acceptance since I am not sure I may ever find someone like you again).. YES, this is exactly what you convey if you do this.. so the woman thinks (he's below my social level, he obviously wants me, but he's needy, and his quick indication of interest shows me that he's insecure about finding someone else like me, so i'm above him, so it's pointless to be with someone like him, eww).. and, any chance of attraction dies instantly!
The point of accessorizing IS NOT so that you don't have to approach women.. (women will give you signals), that's all nice and dandy, but even if they don't, you still have to be able to go up to women and drop something like "hey guys, I actually have to leave in 2 minutes, my friends are getting ready for hunting tomorrow morning, but I just had to ask before we all go because we need a woman's opinion on something and it would actually be better to get a lesbian's opinion, so I saw you guys and I had to come over.. (her; we're not lesbians).. oh, well.. hmm.. shoot.. well I guess I could still ask for your opinion as a woman; unless I was wrong about that too (notice how you convey lack of interest; and disqualify yourself as someone comming over to hit on two girls).. "run your story" but i'm a guy.. and I don't know about these things, I just wanna hear how you feel as a girl.."
The conversation naturally follows.. but females in the group will need to first have the following things happen in sequence:
1. Gain Trust (trust in the sense that you're not there to pick them up; this is why it's easier to pick up girls if you act gay, say you're gay, say you're into women outside their age range, anything to disqualify yourself.. you can also do this non-verbally "example: blow your nose in front of them; that's something nobody interested would do")
2. Knock thier ego down (Indirectly & with subtlety; make them self-concious, don't give your "target" validation and attention; things she's used to.. but befriend her friends "objects" so that they like you and don't want you to leave because you're having a fun time)
3. Lock-in (The "target" usually has a huge ego, and can't take the lack of attention and validation, so she may want to leave.. to prevent this.. lock her in by making her or someone else hold onto something.. "pictures, a hat, a scarf, a watch, your drink, etc." then continue talking)
4. Build Interest (your target is pretty pissed at this point, and craves group attention and validation; too bad you've taken over the group.. so at this point, allow her to get involved in the conversations, but don't let her take them over; YOU have to lead them, and then take them over again; once again, make her crave that attention by validating her friends' opinions or stories and giving them attention while ignoring her)
5. Start to bait her (she's been in this desert long enough, start teasing her with some drops of water.. and small meaningless hints of validation and attention now will spark her desire to gain more and more from you.. but you have to slowly open up, and make her feel like she can't win you over that easily.. she has to work for it.. REALLY work for it!)
Where does accessorizing come in? It comes in while you're trying to "hook" the group.. when the conversation is running dry (which should never happen; you should instead turn away like you're bored or in search of more interesting stimulation after you share a great story/joke whatever, always leave them at a high-point, making them want more, then turn away, do something else, and have them chase after you); they're going to comment on something you're wearing (what's that thing on your necklace mean? that's a cool ____).. also, you can even rock your body and start looking around the room as if YOU are bored and distracted (after the hook), they will sense you're near-future plans of leaving them, and if they're interested, one will not hesitate to say (hey, what's up with that ___ you're wearing?)..
So, don't overlook accessorizing; it's a powerful tool..
