I don't have the patience to read hb2345's endless bitch fests about women but no, he does not understand them from the little i did read. He just regurgitates red pill manosphere gobbledegook. If you are handsome, then no you don't have to develop other aspects of your personality. Just improve your existing appearance and let the women come to you. This is made vastly easier and more effective in your case because you are, by your own admission, not strongly motivated to chase women.Rygar1 wrote: ↑June 4th, 2025, 12:57 pmHe [hb2345]definitely knew his stuff about women and thier ways. He said some rather nasty things toward me as well, but you know what, alot of it is true. When you've pretty much been told your whole life by mommy and family members and eventually girls in high school and then work places how handsome you are...that's all you have. No other aspect of my personality has been developed cause I didn't have to do it. It works well in your teens and 20s, but as you get older...not so much. You're scratching your ass meanwhile 'ugly' dudes are pulling and fu cking attractive women every day. It's a harsh reality check. I'm getting left behind, and it's becoming very difficult to make the transition back to 'normal'. Failure to adapt is definitely a part of the issue.
Passivity is a feminine trait but it can be incredibly powerful in the hands of a handsome man who is capable of taking the masculine role in bed. First there needs to be attraction, typically visual if the other person is at a distance, but later other senses can become involved. Once someone is attracted, they act to get closer to what attracts them. Such action is called "commitment" is marketing, like when a window shopper first enters the store. Given that they entered the store, their mind has to justify this commitment of time and energy, so they have to admit to themselves that they are attracted to something in the store, otherwise they would feel inner conflict between actions and beliefs, and such action is painful. Avoiding inner conflict is called "consistency". If the woman does not commit, then her passivity cancels the mans, so such women are off limits. But if the man is truly passive, he won't care much about this loss.
After the woman has made a move towards a man or shopper towards an object, the key is not at scare them off while revealing other aspects of the man/object that they might also find attractive and to show them that they can possess the object if they want, and then to use other marketing techniques to raise the buying temperature to fever level. Thus there have to be other aspects of the you that are attractive to the woman. The simplest and easiest thing to offer is attention. So if a girl is shows obvious attraction to you, simply reflect the attraction back by not letting your attention drift from her, without scaring off. You can practice this with a cat. Keep you attention laser focused on the cat without doing something to scare it off. Passivity itself is non threatening, so the more passive you are while continuing to direct attention, the better. With women, you'll need to smile or otherwise adjust your face to be non threatening. With cats, slow eye blink. You may need to physically approach women and initiate conversation. Once the conversation is started, revert to passivity while continuing to focus non stop attention on the woman. Conversation will likely become awkward and end. That's fine. Let her go . If the woman is interested, she will eventually seek you out again. If not interested, there will be others. This is the advantage of passivity (you dont much care about losing her) mixed with handsomeness (steady stream of new prospects).
Cialdini list 6 sales person's Weapons of Influence : Reciprocation, Committment and Consistency, Social Proof, Liking, Authority, Scarcity. We already addressed Commitment and Consistency. Reciprocation is good for business selling (offer the buyer a free cup of coffee and they reciprocate by buying a house or car from you) but not so much in human relationships. Social proof is extremely important but best done indirectly. Authority is laughable with respect to human relationships. So that leaves liking and scarcity, which can be applied after the woman has gotten to know you better.
At some point, tell the woman "I like you" or something similar (but only if true!) then silence. Very powerful. Scarcity ("limited time offer! supplies strictly limited! once existing stock is sold, we cannot restock!") is extremely powerful but dangerous because buyer may suspect you are lying or they may feel excessively pressured. With women, the simplest thing is to just reveal (in case it isn't obvious) at some point during conversation that you are looking for a glrlfriend and let her imagination do the work ("he's just sitting there waiting to be taken, if I don't grab him, someone else will").
Continue the passivity and let the woman make most of the next moves all the way up to arranging a place for sex. Then you have to be prepared to take the masculine role, because too much passivity is not sustainable with normal women. On the other hand, not being eager about sex can be very useful because it means you will not prematurely ejaculate. If you have a normal sized penis and can keep it rock hard during penetration for 30+ minutes, without ejaculating until after the woman's orgasm is fully complete, then you can bring her to vaginal/cervical orgasm through penetration alone (if you have good sense of rhythm), which is what most women want. Good masculine acting sex combined with handsomeness and passive agreeableness and laser focused attention is an extremely powerful combination. Only if the woman also badly needs extra money would this combination fail to keep her indefinitely. If you have money in addition, then the total combination is unbeatable and you will likely be the one to end the relationship.
hb2345 is a repulsive creature and so the above strategy will not work with him. I don't read his tiresome advice but I'd be surprised if he had any experience with quality women.
Worrying about other guys having more sex than you puts you in hb2345's frame of desperate horny guy who has nothing to offer but displays of crude horniness, and thus destroys the natural attractiveness of a handsome but passive and thus feminine acting man. Instead of the offering passive attention, you have to aggressively pursue the woman, which you've never done before and so is obviously not your natural style. Aggressive pursuit by desperate horny guys, even complete losers, works on some women (especially the lowest quality) because it makes the woman feel sexually desired, however such desperation signals loudly that the man is not charming and not handsome and not rich (rich men just pay for sex), and the preceding describes hb2345, and that is why he has to be so aggressive as a substitute.
