This weekend, this audio has been circulating in our Google Group. (Thanks, "Just a Guy"!)
Listen to it, before reading the rest of the article. I don't want to spoil your enjoyment of this phone message trainwreck.

All kidding aside? The blogosphere does indicate that this guy has built a reputation as a social artist of a sort. His primary mission is to get laid as often, and as cheaply as possible. And, from reports, he is successful in doing this. Unfortunately, there are many women who will become enraptured by a man who calls them "elegant", and looks like they carry less damage than the other men that they typically encounter. And he goes out and finds 'em.
And, yes, it's easy to laugh at this guy's attempts to impress a woman who doesn't fit the profile of his typical targets.
But, the fact is, we laugh because we've often made similar mistakes. (Just, perhaps, not as extreme.)
The first mistake? A classic mistake that people make in their "About me" profiles.
Notice how he repeatedly tells her about how much of a "catch" he is?
It's good to believe that.
But quality guys imply these qualities by their actions and their stories.
The basic qualities of being single and in good mental heath are assumed. Along with decent physical health, financial stability, breathing air, and resembling your photos.
If you bring them up directly - you look defensive.
So... don't do that.
More tomorrow...

I'll give that his technique works, but not with the kind of person I'd want to be in a relationship with, anyways.
