How To Approach Women Properly

39,924 views

Intro:

Alright, guys, so I'm gonna talk about approaching.
Give me approach down part. . . A lot of guys I talk to, you know, you know they'll start a course with me for example, and they'll say to me
"Look Damien, you know what, I've already been approaching for a while, I've already talked to girls, I already get some decent, I've already done ok. So the approach thing, I get that down part, that's cool".
And the thing that a lot of people don't realise is how much damage gets done or good can get done in just that moment of approach.
So guys can come to me and they can say,. "Look, dude I got the approach done part, that's cool.
But for some reason, everytime I like, everytime I try to excalate, everytime I try to make things a little bit more about relationship rather than about, you know, ' let's just be friends',
she kinds of just gets really distant and goes away. So I'm doing something in the interaction. Maybe I'm not being sexual enough in the interaction, or maybe ..."
No. Most of the time it's you approach in such a way that made her believe that's the type of person you are.
A lot of the times when we see someone for the first time, we make a snap judgement, bam!
Every men you saw in this room, you make an assessment about him. That's what we do, our brains are wired that way.
Ok, we make this neural connection, 'bam, bam, bam', look at his clothing, look at his facial hair, look at his facial structure, look at his race, look at everything. We 'Bam!' We assume something about him.
And what we do, we undergo this thing called 'selection bias'. And that is where we begin to look for evidence only to support what we already believe.
Right, we only look for evidence that supports what we believe and we just miss evidence that negates it very quickly. We become blind to it.
Politics is a lot like this. . Yeah, Liberals think Labour is all bad and they tend to gloss over the bad things that Labour does, and Liberal does and vice versa.
Because we create this selection bias. And this happens when you first see someone.
So if you first see a woman, and that very first impression is this guy seems a little creepy, or the first impression is this guy seems like a really nice guy but I like confident guys.
Bam! You're locked in. And you have to be super-super-super duper over the top confident to break her first impression.
