I often wonder if men who are unsuccessful with women view romantically successful men as "Jerks" and "a**holes" simply because they are bitter and envious of their success.


That can be true, as jealousy can bring out the worst bias in people. But I know an a**hole who is successful with women, and I'm not just calling him an a**hole because of some kind of personal jealously, I'm calling him an a**hole because me and many other people (guys and girls) have seen how immature and disrespectful he is. But sure enough he still seems to get plenty of hot dates.

Why? It can't be because of masculinity, as frankly I could own him any day, but if masculinity is based on maturity, then he certainly doesn't tick that box either as he acts very immature. Don’t get me wrong, I think that having high self esteem and a confident, outgoing personality can be a very good thing, but this guy and other a**holes confuse 'confident guy' for 'immature attention whore'; the resulting product is someone that throws maturity and respect out the window so that they can come across to girls as someone who is independent and confident, when in reality he's just a boy that's 'all talk- no trousers'.

Nice guys always finish last. Except in fairy tales. It's just the nature between the two sexes for men to be dominant, and women submissive. Being nothing but nice to a girl just seems to lead to her walking all over you.

And most normal women seem to enjoy the roller coaster ride of being with a jerk. He'll treat her like crap, she'll submit and be sad, only to eat up his half-ass apology feeling a renewed sense of security and start the cycle over again.

I think it's good to get a balance; be nice, but not to the point of being a braindead fanboy.

But Girls are not rocket science!

It worse!

You can STUDY for rocket science and it has absolutes that dont deviate.


Also you can read about shooting the best hoops all day long , on the other hand you could go to the court and start shooting instead.
