There’s a huge craze right now sweeping across the nation.
Every movie coming out is in 3-D. Even Clash of the Titans got the 3-D treatment and no matter how much you love Gemma Arterton as Io or Alexa Davalos as Andromeda, the 3-D treatment couldn’t save that movie from making me any more emotionally engaged to the characters or the story.
That movie made no sense whatsoever! Seriously… giant scorpions used as donkeys? Why do they move so slow when used as mode of transportation… when 3 shots before that, they were able to rush frantically towards Perseus with killing fervor? And don’t get me started on Pegasus, the supposedly never tamed before mystical flying horse. Why did Pegasus give himself up to Perseus? Perseus didn’t even have to do anything for Pegasus to accept him as his master!!!
I watched the movie completely amused by the special effects but scratching my head wondering if the movie couldn’t be more appropriately retitled ”Crash of the Titans.”
Anyhow, enough ranting. What does 3-D movies have to do with dating? Well… here’s my question for you today: how 3-D are you? Are you a one dimensional or do you consider yourself multi-dimensional? Do you have multiple interests from which you can have conversations on or are you just knowledgeable in one domain only?
In the work environment, the more specialized you are, the more of an expert you are perceived as and the better you get paid. In the corporate world, you advance faster if you have an MBA. In the medical world, you get paid most if you are the surgeon.
But what about… in dating? Does being specialized breeds more success in your ability to find the right person to love?

Have I ever felt not good enough for a girl? Sure! But to actually acknowledge that someone is out of my league, never!
I just watched the movie of the same title last week and by the end of the movie, I started calling my girlfriend “Molly”.
“Molly baby, you are totally out of my league. I have no idea how I got you! I totally had to hope that you were imperfect in some ways so I could believe I could be with you,” I said to her in a sarcastic tone.
She hit my arm, rolling her eyes and laughing at the same time.
If you haven’t seen the movie yet, I highly recommend it. You’ll get a good laugh. Maybe you’ll even see yourself in that movie but truth is… isn’t that kinda sad?
How many of you actually feels this pain, this void in your soul… telling you that you aren’t good enough when you see a woman you are attracted to? How many of you truly believe that you aren’t worthy of love, worthy of attention?
How many of you actually rank her on a scale of “desirability factor” and compare yourself to that number?
After so many years of watching the dating and pickup industry, I come to realize that men have 2 basic approach to meet women.
I see on one side the guy who’s mostly focused on himself. He’s focused on pursuing and expanding on what he likes and wants in life. He’s typically a pretty cool guy. He’s really good at something or he’s really passionate about something. People get attracted to him because of the lifestyle he’s created and cultivated for himself. His strong social network allows him to constantly meet new people and he meets women effortlessly. Meeting people for him is an act of seeing new opportunities opening up around him.
On the other hand, I see the guy who is very goal oriented. He’s constantly on a mission to find the next best thing. When he wants to meet someone, whether for business or personal reasons, he goes out there and really look for that someone. His social circle does not allow him to constantly meet new people and as such, he’s like a hungry hunter. Meeting women is an act of looking for new targets he can prey on. He has the drive of a salesman.
Which one are you?
As you embark on your journey to improve your chances at finding romance, you need to know which style is easiest for you to implement.
Are you more of a farmer… or a hunter?
I see this endless debate play out constantly on seduction boards. Guys who preach the “be yourself, love yourself, focus on yourself” type of approach want you to be the farmer. Guys who preach “here’s the best technique, here’s the latest technology in understanding/getting women” want you to be the hunter.
Is one style better than the other? It’s up to you! But you need to understand the differences so you can stop doubting yourself on what’s right for you. Read the rest of this entry »
