Hostage Negotiation

A visibly upset young woman tells us about being hit on

"I can't do this without you because you're above a 7." Cutting straight to the bone!

This channel is the very definition of, life is not complicated, people make life complicated. Well done.

Thanks for the giggle. "I can't pick up this handkerchief without you because you are above a seven..."

"You checking for weapons or checking me out?" has gotta be my new favourite line.

[arcanefeline]

I'm just glad I'm married and don't have to deal with this dating shit.

If I ever get divorced, I'm just gonna stay single. I'm too old for this and don't have enough money.

I read the title as HoeStage Negotiation and my brain was like "We don't negotiate with terrorists" 🤣

The problem is women exploited the plausible deniability. All the things they would do to get our attention they now say they do for themselves. Even at bars, and other places you go and meet people. They’ll tell u “don’t talk to us, we’re here to be with our friends”

Now being good looking is the key.

Just a reminder that you'll never get these "choosing signals" in the place of nesessity, unless you are very attractive.
The choice for most of us is to either ignore this "signal" crap and go anyway, or never approach. Both choices are valid.

Your clarity of thinking impresses me every time. The way you all concerns in here and separated them from irrelevant noise was a piece of art and very insightful and enlightening, but also staying fair to everyone and showing a very high level of empathy without falling into either "whitnighting" (aka men bashing) or women hating. Really good job. Analysis like this that are brief, insightful, and fair is why I subscribed to your channel.

The problem with waiting for a sign is that women communicate differently (indirectly) and men are never sure if it's a sign unless she literally drops her hankerchief which is much more direct. This disconnect was and is not solvable and has only gotten worse since the me too movement.

Women: "why do guys never approach."
Other Women: "Eww men need to stop approaching me."

Women want men to read their minds without ever speaking to them. What's new. Most men do not have the experience to decipher female body language which is the only true sign of attraction.

I wish you uploaded longer form content! You have a wealth of information. Love the channel.

1:51 feigned helplessness " Ohh my .. i can't do this without you because you are about a 7 "
😂😂

Really good solid advice, It also helps you avoid situations that may land you in legal trouble even if you had pure intentions.

I’m just going to go into robotics and build a girlfriend. It sounds easier.

[saraiva]

When you hypogamically marry her and she starts to grow tired of the marriage, and she starts to talk about divorce, now YOU'RE the one in the hostage negotiation!!

[evilways]

Ha... this guy nails it every time and then explains it in a simple to understand dialog and even provides visual aids with wit and humor.

[gdoumerc]

This is sound advice. I’m going to be sure to employ this in the future. I’m also going to use this the next time I’m at Home Depot…

Woman: “Hi, can you help me lift this bag of mulch into my basket?”

Me: “No, you’re not above a 7 and this is not a social space. Plus, you might have a weapon.”

"if she takes that chance every time, eventually it's going to go bad"

The same goes for men. If we take every chance, eventually we're going to end up on the receiving end of some psychotic behavior, get robbed in a honeypot trap, get attacked by strangers "defending her" when she cries foul just to defend her public image, get hit with a false grape accusation.... these things happen to men as often.

if that's how they feel, then that's what's going to happen. They're never going to accept that their feelings might be misleading them.

Ignore them, so later they will complain they don’t get approached

[Zaaggs]

Same thing applies to false allegations. Yeah it's statistically unlikely until you have enough private meetings with women. They intuitively understand this when they're the one at risk but can't understand it the otherway around. Mind boggeling.
