📚 Book Lessons:

This week's book is How To Be A 3% Man by Corey Wayne (last time I promise).People really enjoyed the past few lessons, you can read part 1 here and part 2 here.Here are a few more short lessons from the book:1) Good dates are opportunities to get to know one another and get intimate.

BAD dates: loud clubs, movies, concerts.GOOD dates: bars, coffee, art museums, mini-golf (you need places where you can talk and build a connection–go to nice, fun, and inexpensive places).On the date, look for signs of growing attraction: eye contact, touching, questions from her. The more physical touch there is from a woman, the more likely it is she wants to kiss you.2) Don’t be needy or desperate. Wait a few days before you text or call her, or until she reaches out to you. You should be busy with life and have other priorities.If a woman’s attraction level towards you lowers, so should your interest and attention towards her. Give her space and time, don’t over pursue or put too much pressure on her. The strongest negotiation position is the ability to walk away and not look back.

3) If a woman cancels a date without bringing up another time or rescheduling, it’s a sign of low attraction.The more a woman likes you, the easier she will make it for you two to get together and the fewer “games” she will play.If she tries to change plans, unless it is an emergency, it’s probably best to cancel the date: “It sounds like it’s not a good time to get together so let’s just do it another night.” PS: If you want more lessons from this book, read my summary about it here.

✅ Actionable Advice: 

1) Make good dates where you can get to know one another:

• Good dates: Drinks at a bar or mini-golf.

• Bad dates: Going to the movies or a loud club.

2) Don't be needy:

• Don't text or call a woman too quickly, it will likely come off as needy (unless she's doing the same which means she's at the same level of attraction as you are).

• If a woman's attraction level towards you drops, so should your level of attention (ex: If she takes 3 days to respond to your text don't respond 3 minutes later).

3) Never stop dating your partner:

• Dating never ends, even after you're married.

• Keep the romance between you two alive by going on weekly date nights, doing new activities together, and being playful with one another.
