It's not a game.

Women are not prizes to be won or property to be obtained — you don’t “get” a girlfriend, you attract a woman. And in order to attract a woman, you must first make yourself attractive to women.
Same thing. The game to be attractive to (NT) women is closely related to competing with other men for women. Because most of the things that are attractive to women are part of the competition between men. If you had analysed this a little better, you would have understood that link.

Lists have been posted regarding what real women have stated that they find attractive in men. But some men deny that what women say they want has any relationship with what they really want. Some men also claim that none of the things that women want could possibly apply to them. Yet they go on complaining about being lonely and wondering why women don’t like them. I’ve observed this since 7th grade, in real life and on-line.
I've known since about 7th grade that some women don't obey your rules, and those are the ones that are interesting to me.
Women who understand me tend to be exceptions to most rules. If I related to people in Fnord's prescribed ways, I would bore & disappoint everyone because there's no reason to expect predictability or trendiness from me.
I'm not going to waste energy sweating about how to attract anyone. I don't really want to read I to something most of us refuse to define anyway.

Agreed. In addition to that, I'd be bored to death too, so it would not be one-sided boredom.
