Anti-Seducers - Robert Greene
Anti-Seducers
Robert Greene
The Brute: Impatience. They offend you with their egoism.
The Suffocator: They fall in love before you are even half aware of their existence. Lamedores sin tu hacer nada por ellos. Inability to disagree with you is a bad sign.
The Moralizer: All is far in love and seduction morality never enters the picture. These are people who follow fixed ideas and try to make you bend to their standards. They want to change you, to make you a better person. They endlessly criticize and judge that is their pleasure in life. Mental stiffness.
The Tightwad: Cheap. Something that keeps them from letting go or taking risks. Try giving more freely both your money and yourself. Always give good tips.
The Bumbler: Self Conscious. Their self conscious alert your own. They are always thinking about themselves, how they look and about the consequences for them. Worrying is usually contagious so soon you are worrying too.
The Windbag: Selfish. They always talk about themselves, never ask am i boring you?.
The Reactor: Ego sensitive. Thye comb your every action and word for signs of a light attack to their vanity. Whine and complain a lot. We should be able to laugh at ourselves a little, but they can't.
The Vulgarian: Inattentive to the details that are so important in seduction. They have no sense of timing and are rarely in harmony with your tastes. Indiscretion is a sure sign of the vulgarian. Inability to see themselves as others see them.
Extra Info:
- The man which is cowardly and over and above respectful toward them, will never win their good favor.
- There is nothing more antiseductive than the feeling that someone has assumed that you are theirs, that you cannot possibly resist them.
- Because sexuality is repressed and requires speaking in code. It is rather because wordless communication (Through clothes, gestures, actions) is the most pleasurable, exciting and seductive form of language.
- Seduction requires an openness to the other person, a willingness to bend and adapt. Excessive pride, without anything to justify it, is highly anti-seductive.
- The suspicion of an ulterior motive is anti-seductive.
- Arguers that dont understand other people's point of view are anti seductive.
- A seducer never seeks to persuade directly, never parades his or her morality, never lectures or imposes. Everything is subtle, psychological and indirect.
