My friend Dico has forced on me a cruel, cruel revelation. He is apparently obnoxiously better looking than me. I get to watch women fall all over themselves flirting with him while I get blessed with the ability of invisibility. I mean, we could literally say the same thing, and I wouldn't even be heard. We have the same tastes, the same sense of humor, and the same sense of entertainment, but when it comes to women, generally, they hate me, and they illogically, unrealistically, unfairly love him. I once saw him almost hit a woman with his car and when he got out he called her stupid. In response, she said, and I quote "Give me your number."
I was incredibly baffled by the way women functioned around him for a while. It made no sense. I could say the same exactly the same thing he said to a woman, but I would get blacklisted in the "Women's Book of Rejection" for all eternity, while they ask Dico to have their babies. I used to get a little frustrated at not understanding it, but not really at what was happening, because I didn't know what it was that I needed to duplicate to get to where he was. Was it the charm? We would talk to women in almost the same way... Was it the clothes? I dressed a bit more expensively than he did... And then one day, I got to analyze what the fuck was going on in front of me, and I figured out that apparently, he is a really good looking guy. I mean like, women get stupid around him good looking. And I didn't even know this until recently, and I've known the guy for seven years. I'm not gay, but I won't say that I don't know a good looking man from an average or ugly guy, and though I knew he wasn't a bad looking guy, I never knew that he was good looking to the point of have that effect on women.
All that aside, my purpose here isn't to tell you just about my friend's uncanny ability to pick-up.... *ahem* to be picked up by women, but to tell you what it is that I and or anyone should do if put in the situation I'm in.
What I want is to be good with women. What I see, is someone who is better. What I need to do, is be better.
Throughout life, you will encounter men and women who are better than you in one or more ways than one. Actually, it's likely that you will meet someone who is better than you in literally every category of being human that you can possibly be judged in. The fact of life is, no matter how far you go, even if you get every gold medal in the Olympics, there's no sure fire way to be sure that you actually are the best at anything. Chances are, you aren't. No matter what, there's someone better than you. So, what you do, is be better. You may never be the best, but you would be better. I mean, there's nothing wrong with with trying to be the best. Despite the fact that you may never be the best, you will be the best version of you in the end. I know it's corny, don't be an asshole. It's the truth.
