That's funny you say that about DUIs. Two of my best friends have DUIs as of recently. Actually, one of them has TWO DUIs that he got within a month of each other ****ing idiot.

Anyway, both of these guys have spent a lot of their adult lives jobless. The one with the two DUIs would get his grandma to drop him off at my house so we could go to the club She'd come back the next morning and pick him up! But I swear to God, I've NEVER seen someone with so much pull. Handfuls of random, fine ass girls at the club or bar would swoon when he talked to them. It was a rarity to see that guy get turned down for a dance or phone number..

Anyway, he'd always tell me that girls wouldn't care when he told them he had DUIs, no license, no car, and no job. He had green (or blue) eyes or some shit; I don't know, I never pay attention. You could consider him a pretty boy and I guess that's what matters to a lot of girls.

We probably sound pretty bitter, I bet. I feel like women talk this way about men though. Its just natural.

It's funny, women are absolutely the worst at understanding attraction in themselves. It's like a giant blind spot. Maybe because they attribute it to "feelings" and not logic.

Once you understand the science of attraction its easy to create in a woman. Not every woman reacts the same way to every situation but at a deep core level women are very easy to understand and manipulate if desired.

All the mentioned items can be critical, looks, humor, confidence, status (real or imagined) and a host of others. But strictly having these will not ensure attraction.

Buck is a lost soul, this girl already has him totally wrapped around her finger and frankly his expectations are going to be impossible to live up to. The crash and burn has all the makings of being epic.

We talk about how men are gold diggers, insecure, and only want us for our status. Sure.

Men are visually stimulated, women are not. Women want men who meet their needs. Guys are shallow enough to mistake that for being something strictly financial. Women want to feel special, wanted, appreciated, and accepted. That's our core. I'm not saying attraction isn't important. I'm just saying that maybe, when you see a "hot" chick with an "ugly" guy, it may not be because he has money. He's simply meeting her needs. Just like everything, there are always exceptions to those rules.

Thanks for proving my post for me. And never once have I mentioned money, that would be you.

That would be NEARLY every guy in this thread. OR maybe another site I'm on. I apologize for quoting your post, but answering to the general conversation.

You're right. Women have no clue what they're attracted to. Better?

If this thread is striking a nerve, maybe its time you step out and take a breather.

Did I miss something where he talked about how he's been buying her all of this stuff? The dude likes a girl and is eager to talk to her. That doesn't mean that she has him wrapped around her finger and it's going to crash and burn.

Trying to tell us something about your love life?

Common man!

No, bad year on career life plan. You feel really dumb when you double down on a college degree that's not STEM or IS/IT related and you're forced to quickly realize you'll never get a job that pays because 1) it's a terrible job market 2)you've made too many mistakes and won't have enough people to go to bat for you on recommendations.

In short- I ****ed up MAJORLY and now I'm worried about how I'll support myself beyond earning minimum wage.

If you don't see the level of expectation he has you are blind. I predict an epic crash and burn.
