Don't Be Afraid of Women (Fixed Version)

Sorry for the mix-up when this episode was originally released! Here is the right version.

Don’t be afraid of women

Putting yourself out there regarding relationships with women can be intimidating. It always has been but it doesn't have to be. As men, we want to fight against the fear that leads us to the two extremes of relationships many men deal with.

Avoidance

  • Don’t avoid the girl you like.
  • You need to know the person and know you like them, not just the idea of them.
  • The only way to get out of your mind is to get into reality.
  • Avoiding causes us to give a weird energy to our approach as well.

Obsession.

  • Don’t follow them around like a weirdo.
  • Don’t spend too much time in your mind. Things get blown out of proportion there.
  • Don’t invest so much mentally that by the time you finally talk to the person, you’re thinking about what you’ll name your children
  • Obsession gives you a bad filter for reality too
