Alright, folks, hold onto your hats. I'm about to blow your mind with something I call the Chains of Love, a concept tied closely to my Attachment theory. Hear me out.
We all have emotions tethered to something. Think of your favorite song, movie, or year. Ask yourself, "why is it my favorite?" The answer will probably be something comforting, a memory or an emotion.
Now, let me lay it down for you. There are two ways to look at it: you've already got something that is your favorite and I attach myself to that, or I give you something to associate me with. All I need is a moment. A moment that will resonate with you unless replaced by another. I call this emotional trigger and changing vests.
Let's walk you through an example. Picture yourself in an evening gown, at a beauty pageant. The slow jam, Brian McKnight's "Back at One", filling the air. You chose that song, and I pick up on that because it must mean something to you. Maybe it was your dad's favorite song as he and your mom danced in perfect harmony.
Fast forward, and you're at my place, five songs deep into a session of musical roulette, and guess what comes up? Brian McKnight's "Back at One". Our laughter fills the room, our smiles meet, and our flirtatious banter rides the rhythm of the song. I offer you a drink, leaving you alone with the song, stirring the cocktail of past and present.
The next song is overtly sexual, and again, I notice your attentiveness. I ask why you chose that song but cut you off by moving closer. Our hearts race, filling you with a raw, primal instinct for love, like when Neo saved Trinity in The Matrix. This moment marks the difference in our future. Now, emotionally, I have been part of your life since the moment that song imprinted on your heart... I am now chained to your emotions, and you have to start back at one.
I hope this elucidates my theory on emotional attachment. Remember, don't hesitate to reach out if you need help with any relationship matters, drop a comment, shoot me an email, or stay tuned.
And always remember, be gloriously selfish. Let your joy radiate, inspiring others to view themselves the same way. "If you can't see your success, change your vantage pointe."
Ladies and gentlemen let's discuss a new kind of Sorority that's been making waves lately. "Bad Bitch" has emerged as a class, a self-identifier for women who own their strengths, their beauty, their "confidence", their feminine, and their so-called sexual thirsts.
Here's where things get interesting. Men have always been regarded as the "bad boys, or dogs" and now women feel the need to one-up them by self-identifying as "bad bitches". More baffling is that men are seemingly attracted to these bad bitches. We need to start disregarding what the media pushes and begin making conscious decisions about what we truly want.
Still puzzled? Let me elaborate. What do you prioritize when choosing a mate? From my observations, a majority of women prefer the "bad boy", determined mainly by his appearance - his "packaging". Similarly, most men are drawn to a pretty face and attractive body. But is this superficial criteria what we genuinely seek in a partner?
Contrary to popular belief, I propose that what we genuinely desire isn't the "perfect face and body", but rather someone we can engage in intellectual and sexual discourse with - someone with the perfect mind.
When we repeatedly fail at choosing the right person, we tend to give up entirely. For women, this often leaves you open to be chosen instead, and for men, desperation might lead to being more open to all women, not just the "bad bitches".
The "bad bitch" label carries a sexually charged notion, and the thought of it is animalistic, considering "bitch" refers to a female dog. But are we not above these base instincts? We wouldn't tolerate a misbehaving dog in our homes, so why would we choose partners based on these primal urges?
Time is the only real measure of whether someone is truly a "bad bitch" or a "bad boy". With the right energy, transformation is possible. She might not be the right fit for one man but perfect for you, provided you channel the right energy.
Many examples from the entertainment industry support this theory. Think about the men who passed on Jennifer Hudson, Mo'Nique, Jill Scott, or Queen Latifah. Likewise, women who rejected Anthony Anderson, Randy Jackson, Seth Rogan, or Reuben Studdard must have regrets.
The essence of my argument is simple: it takes time to find the right mind, but when you do, everything else will fall into place. "Bad dogs" get disciplined and left outside. So, ignore societal pressures and pursue what your heart genuinely desires.
Hey there, brave hearts! Ever wondered why your love life seems like a rollercoaster that only goes downhill? Let's untangle this mystery.
Fascinated by the wild side of love, aren't we all? You live this crazy, thrilling lifestyle because it sparks joy in your heart, just like that lightning bolt emoji you love to use. Yet, you find yourself drawn to someone totally opposite because, well, that's what they expect.
The world around you has expectations, huh? Your status in society comes with a manual for the 'right' partner. Does this sound familiar?
It all boils down to one thing: Confidence. Yes, my friend, it's that simple and that complex. The partner you choose is a mirror of your confidence, and if you're too scared to embrace your true desires, that reflection gets blurry.
Ever had that thought? She must have been this wild and exciting for someone else. If she hadn't, you wouldn't be drawn to her. Simple logic, right?
Here's where it gets interesting: You suppress your true feelings, choosing what you believe others want you to have. But hey, where's your happiness in this scenario?
Time to make a decision, folks. Love women who love women? Bring your partner home and introduce her as part of your family. It's your happiness on the line, after all.
What if you bring home her new BFF, and then you cheat on her or worse? Sounds like a twisted sitcom, doesn't it? But it's real life for some. True manhood is about making decisions, not wallowing in indecision.
The world is your oyster, love rebels. Go after what makes your heart sing! For more insights, leave a comment, keep reading, or simply just stay tuned. We're in this journey together. Remember, I'm here to assist you with your romantic quests. It's time to live by Your Love, Your Rules!
Been parroting "fake it till you make it"? Time to drop that chant and introduce a new catchphrase: "Genuine Love Game". I touched upon the societal construct of boys playing with Barbie Dolls, Baby Dolls, and just being boys. That's where we learn to flex our muscles - strategy, dominance, competitiveness, camaraderie. But for those men who didn't participate in this instinctive training, they are on a different quest - they seek advice.
If you're in the role of a Hitch remake, strategically aiming to win a particular lady's heart, then cheers to you! The fact that you're seeking advice on your genuine love game tells me you're aware of your boundaries, your identity, and your audacity to chase what you desire.
For the others, who couldn't score in high school, college, or even life, anger becomes your companion. Recall our discussion on suppression theory - it's a revelation of what's happening within you. You've imprisoned those desires, turning from a victim to a Sensei. But if you're exploiting your power against the untrained, aren't you the new oppressor?
Your scoop and score record may have skyrocketed post-"training", but is that the essence of your genuine love game? Or are you just showcasing your might against the oblivious? Remember, your target isn't your past rejections, but an unsuspecting person who doesn't know your grip on her heart.
Any man overflowing with the premium energy of love doesn't say, "She's drop-dead gorgeous, I want her for tonight". Your suppressed sexual energy is like a shaken soda can - ready to burst. It overpowers your normal state, pushing you into a tiresome loop. You charm her, unravel her emotions, while concealing yours. You reflect a machismo facade that you think women find irresistible. But it's a ticking time bomb because you can't keep pretending. You faked it till you made it, but what about your genuine love game?
If you need a compass in the labyrinth of love, I'm here. Leave a comment, tune in, or continue reading. And don't forget, be unapologetically selfish - because through your joy, others find their reflection.
Ready to turn up the heat and banish those pesky arguments? Brace yourself as we dive into the captivating world of seduction. But first, let's set the stage with a quick recap.
You're already on board with the concept of love buckets for women and energy nozzles for men. It's time to explore how energy manifests itself in three enticing forms. Regular energy, the slow burner; premium energy, the love booster; and super high octane, the fiery fuel. Remember, seduction is all about harnessing this energy to create irresistible sparks.
Picture this: you're feeling negative, a cloud of gloom surrounds you. But here's where seduction works its magic. Super high octane energy can intensify those negative feelings, turning them into a burning desire for connection. On the flip side, when you're fueled by love energy, super high octane becomes the catalyst that ignites passion like never before. It's a seductive dance of emotions.
Men and women fight for different reasons, driven by their distinctive energy dynamics. Women seek arguments when their energy levels drop, craving a quick recharge. Think of those trivial arguments that erupt into something bigger—they're an attempt to refuel their love buckets. On the other hand, men with excessive energy need an outlet, leading them to fight, argue, or indulge in sexual encounters. It's a primal response seeking balance.
Ready for the secret weapon to end arguments? It's time to embrace the power of seduction—specifically, sexual intimacy. When you engage in passionate lovemaking, men release super high-octane energy while women receive it, translating into love energy. It's a delicate equilibrium that restores balance and dissipates tension. The effects are remarkable men become too relaxed to argue, and women are energized beyond the need for conflicts.
In relationships, we need each other to find balance. It's like stepping into a puddle, soaking your socks. You feel a surge of frustration while trying to complete your tasks. Similarly, arguments arise when both partners are out of sync energetically. The key is to recognize that most arguments stem from external factors, not personal attacks. Instead of adding fuel to the fire, offer love and understanding, allowing your partner to release negative energy and refuel with love.
Ninety percent of arguments can be defused by recognizing external triggers and responding with love and compassion. Remember, you're a team, and your love for each other can conquer any challenges that come your way. So, indulge in a seductive dance, playfully filling each other's buckets with love energy. Find pleasure in the rewards of your efforts and let the passion between you reignite like never before.
When it comes to assessing whether someone has cheated up or down, it's not an easy task. We cannot truly comprehend their vantage point. However, let's delve into the logic behind this concept and attempt to gain a deeper understanding.
In relationships, we often choose a partner based on the belief that we are getting their maximum potential. This means they possess about eighty percent of the qualities we desire in a mate. This baseline becomes the standard for our expectations.
For women, finding a mate sets a new baseline. Let's say your first partner had a car. The next partner you choose must meet or exceed that baseline by having a car and something additional, such as a job. The perception here is that women cheat up, constantly seeking to expand their baseline and attract partners who offer more.
For men, the goal is to expand their "bucket" of energy by attracting more partners. This can create the perception that men cheat up. However, there's a twist. When men find a partner who aligns with their maximum potential, they commit, believing they have found everything they desire in one place. From this perspective, men cheat down when they step away from this committed relationship, seeking a partner who presents fewer challenges or headaches.
Both men and women navigate this complex landscape by employing what we call "game." It involves presenting ourselves as the maximum version of what our potential mate desires, even if we haven't fully reached that potential. By attracting partners based on our minimum, we have room to grow and impress them with our hidden qualities. This way, they appreciate us more as they discover our full potential.
Attracting a mate based on our minimum allows us to appreciate in value. As they initially perceive us as smart, attractive, and well-rounded, they are yet to witness our full potential. When they eventually discover our additional qualities, such as financial stability or domestic skills, their admiration and appreciation grow.
Men tend to pick partners based on their maximum confidence level. However, when faced with relationship challenges or overwhelming situations, they may seek partners at a lower level to reduce headaches—cheating down. On the other hand, women establish a baseline and expand their energy bucket, seeking partners who offer more to meet their evolving needs—cheating up. Employing game allows both men and women to present their minimum potential, paving the way for growth and mutual discovery.
Welcome to the world of love, a mysterious place where we often trade authenticity for approval. It's the arena where our dashing representative – that slick, suave version of ourselves – steps forward, ready to engage in a passionate tango. This deceptive dance is what I call the Seductive Chameleon Effect.
When we start dating, we're authentic – we're real. Then, as we begin to fall for someone, we instinctively start mirroring them. It's the highest form of flattery, or so we've been led to believe. Consider the Casanova who turns into a gentle romantic because he's found 'The One'. Love is his kryptonite, his transformation catalyst. He feels the need to convince his lady that his philandering days are behind him. Why? Because he realizes the damage he's done, the hearts he's toyed with – but trust me, darling, I'm digressing.
Here's what happens next. You begin to mold your world to her liking, even sacrificing your pleasures for hers. Picture this: You're a culinary maestro who loves whipping up hearty Spaghetti Alfredo, eating it right out of the bowl. But when she's around, you become a gourmet chef, serving the same dish in exquisite Nora Fleming dishes. That's the Seductive Chameleon Effect in action.
This chameleon dance continues until you're comfortable enough in the relationship to be yourself again. Suddenly, she's exposed to the real you – the guy who enjoys spaghetti on the couch while binging College Football all Saturday in his favorite (slightly worn-out) boxer briefs. This is where the confusion sets in; she never knew this was the real you.
In love, our auto-pilot often takes the wheel, leading us to make changes we aren't conscious of. Like me, you might find yourself trying to persuade your partner that you've left behind some old habits or principles. Here's the catch: love's compelling tug-of-war keeps you grounded, despite your instincts urging you to flee. And the most exciting part? She's performing the same dance too!
The antidote to the Seductive Chameleon Effect? Simple. Embrace your selfishness. Pursue your passions. Love in your unique way. Be present, not a puppet controlled by auto-pilot. We're all shape-shifters, constantly evolving with every tick of the clock.
Adopt the "Love Me or Leave Me" philosophy – a straightforward, yet powerful mantra that encourages acceptance of yourself and your partner, just as you both are. Don't settle for less, whether it's a mediocre pair of shoes or a lackluster Spaghetti Alfredo presentation. But keep in mind, the 80/20 rule before you make a run for the exit.
To truly ignite our relationships, we must bypass the Seductive Chameleon Effect and prioritize our happiness. Anything less leads to an inevitable downward spiral.
So, dare to be selfish and remember, your happiness is your greatest seduction. As always, "If you can't see your success, change your vantage point.”
Ah, the barbershop - a carnival of conversations, an Olympic arena of fiery debates, where a guy can be a 'Guy.' Each visit is a ride through a labyrinth of chatter, some sensible, some random. But today, my dear readers, the conversation took an exciting detour into my lane. Buckle up!
You know the guy - always trying to ruffle feathers with his tales of conquest. So, in walks Mr. "I've-Got-It-All," attempting to assert his coolness. Not on my watch, bud. Here's the juicy bit:
Johnny Everready: "So, my side-piece asked me, 'Is this just about the fun in bed?' I said, 'No way, I like you.' What would you guys say?"
Cue the laughter, the applause, the cheerleading. But I, the relationship whisperer, decided to shake things up a bit:
Swagger Coxch: "ABSOLUTELY! But darling, you do that little thing that drives me wild!" Of course, that was a slick lie. I added, "Isn't she supposed to be your side-piece?"
For the uninitiated, a "side-piece" or "jump-off" is someone you call for some no-strings-attached action. But apparently, not everyone got that memo.
Our man, Johnny, wasn't keen on being forthright. He feared losing the "benefits" of his side-piece arrangement. To that, I say, "Confidence issue?" Nope, says Johnny, he couldn't care less.
But when I probed, Johnny tried to deflect:
Johnny Everready: "Have you dealt with many women? Are you married?"
And I, ever the gentleman, put him back in his place, "Not up for discussion, champ. You're the one trying to play Kanye here."
What unfolded next was Johnny admitting his five-year "affair" while being married. My stance was clear: "You're playing a single man's game while married, bro. You're basically married to two women now."
Johnny thought he found a way out, claiming he did things with his side-piece he couldn't do with his wife.
Swagger Coxch: "Then, you chose wrong, Johnny. You've suppressed your desires or lied to your wife from the beginning. You should have found someone who's into the same stuff as you. You wouldn't have to cheat then."
To cut a long story short, Johnny confessed to being greedy, to wanting his wife and his side-piece. I left him with this thought, "If you haven't shared enough emotions with your wife, or before you married your wife, that might be the problem. You're dealing with two packages, each with its own set of headaches."
This barbershop tale of love, lust, and misplaced affections left me wondering. But what do you think? I'd love to hear your thoughts.
And remember, always be fuching selfish, because your happiness can inspire others.
"If you can't see your success, change your vantage pointe."
Ever feel like your partner is speaking a language you just can't comprehend? Like you’re both Neanderthals grunting in the cave of love? Newsflash: you’re not alone. Welcome to the world of cross-gender communication, where 'I love you' has as many dialects as there are couples.
Picture this. I'm holding the door open for you. No words escape my lips, but that gesture screams volumes. It's my silent ode to your royalty, a symbolic bow to my queen. See, we men often communicate through actions, our silent 'I love you's' threaded through everyday gestures.
Remember that date where I cooked your favorite meal? I wasn't just being a considerate partner; I was screaming my affection from the rooftop of my heart. Did you notice your favorite scented candles at my place? That wasn't a random choice. It was a love letter written in wax and fragrance.
Do we guys come across as quiet or unresponsive? We’re just busy scanning you, taking in your expressions, your outfit, your hair flips, and yes, even the lip-licking frequency. It's our way of loving you, the 'show' to your 'tell'.
But here's the catch - to bridge this communication gap, we need to decipher each other’s love languages.
We men can often mistake your emotional sharing as a call to arms, a plea to fix everything that's wrong. While you ladies might misconstrue our silence as indifference, when in fact, we're just downloading all the data you've unknowingly supplied.
My golden advice? Slow down and decode.
The biblical concept of being equally yoked suggests that successful marriages are built on shared beliefs, values, and priorities. However, this concept stretches deeper than religion alone and can prove challenging when these beliefs evolve over time. But is it solely about having identical perspectives, or could it also involve a mutual respect for each other's growth and individuality? Let's delve into this concept and explore its impact on relationships.
The essence of being equally yoked extends beyond your spouse and infiltrates all relationships. It hinges on shared core beliefs, values, and priorities, fostering a common ground to connect and grow. But what happens when we don't fully understand the origin of these ideals? How does our upbringing influence the foundations of our belief system and impact our relationships?
Consider a child raised in a military family. The unique dynamics of this lifestyle often form a self-sustaining familial unit, with an ingrained sense of otherness towards non-military individuals. These subconscious beliefs, formed in early childhood, carry forward into adult relationships and can impact one's ability to relate to others.
Children of military personnel often unconsciously carry the imprints of this lifestyle. Dependence on family, a tendency to form connections with military individuals, and an expectation of continual progress are some of the deep-seated beliefs that may surface. However, these beliefs may lead to anxiety and discomfort when out of the military environment, akin to a fish out of water.
Recognizing these subconscious beliefs, values, or priorities is the first step towards making a change. It's about identifying the auto-pilot mode you're running on, a result of years of conditioning. Being equally yoked, in essence, means having similar programming or mentality.
Once we understand this programming, the next step is to adapt and align it with our current way of thinking. Changing past programming can be difficult, primarily because most individuals aren't aware it exists. However, acknowledging this conditioning helps to create a shared understanding with your partner, thereby contributing to a balanced and more harmonious relationship.
The real difference between people lies not in their financial status or outward conditions but in their mentality or programming. It's crucial to recognize this in your partner, and often, this understanding comes through time or shared experiences of stress. Remember, being equally yoked is not about identical thinking but rather about shared understanding and respect for each other's journey and growth.
Opposites attract, they say, a mantra touted as romantic wisdom. However, I beg to indulge you in a little different perspective - a sexier, more provocative one. Prepare to discover how the magic of "positivity propels."
Consider this: in the land of magnetism, a positive pole and a negative pole irresistibly draw to each other. But what's truly happening? One party is forfeiting its positivity, while the other is shedding its negativity. You've probably lamented, "They're dragging my mood down!" Sound familiar? It's a textbook case of a joyful soul being sucked into the whirlpool of its somber opposite, effectively becoming a less happy version of itself.
Then there's the other adage: like repels like. I dare say this is a misconstrued interpretation and a somewhat gloomy perspective on a potentially positive scenario. Instead of repelling, two similar poles - they propel! They launch each other forward in the direction they're already heading.
Imagine, a beacon of positivity encounters another. Suddenly, you have an explosion of good vibes, a positivity supernova. The same holds true for negativity, for misery does love company. Hence, you may find yourself either seeking a partner in gloom or, rather regrettably, attempting to drench a positive spirit with your gloomy showers.
But here's the thing, some of us in our darker moments will actively seek out those beaming with positivity to lift our spirits - thus, positivity propels positivity. And the mantra to remember? "Don't worry, be happy..."
The moral of this story is to be, as I'd cheekily call it, "fuching selfish." Radiate your happiness like a sun on a mission, for your joy has a contagious charm. By witnessing your boundless positivity, others may just catch a reflection of their own potential for happiness.
Ladies, let's face it – men can be a tough nut to crack, especially when it comes to navigating the terrain of intimacy. Remember, if you're dealing with someone who feels like a stranger, maybe it's time to hit the "stranger danger" alarm! Now, let's delve into the intriguing ways men propose that 'next step' - are they blatant, or do they drop subtle hints?
Meet Mr. Blatant. He flat-out asks for sex. This guy likely suffers from low self-esteem and prefers quantity over quality. He's got super-octane energy in the tank and is ready to release it. His modus operandi? Approaching as many women as possible, in a 'numbers game' approach, much like someone asking for a dollar on the street - sooner or later, someone might say yes. This lack of confidence is veiled by an aggressive and off-putting approach. Ladies, this type of man is best left on the sidelines until he sorts his act out.
On the other end of the spectrum, we have the artist of subtlety, Mr. S.W.A.G. (Sexy, Witty, Artful, Gentleman). This chap suggests rather than asks, a suave move akin to Jordan's basketball finesse in his prime. If you find yourself charmed by his proposal, remember it's an art form, not a mistake. When the right amount of tension is built through engaging conversation and compelling storytelling, you might find yourself captivated by his visions of a promising future together.
This method of storytelling is powerful - the more he weaves tales of a bright future, the more he starts to believe in them. And this is where the art of 'dream selling' comes into play. The longer he maintains this narrative, the sooner he brings back emotions from the future. The key to sustaining a relationship is the order of emotional release - love must come before sexual energy. If this sequence gets jumbled, the relationship might never progress beyond the bedroom.
Remember, ladies, timing in intimacy is crucial. If a man isn't responding to your advances, it doesn't mean he's not interested. On the contrary, he may be delaying gratification to build tension, much like saving a delicious slice of cheesecake for after a long day's work. The anticipation makes the eventual experience all the more delightful.
Ladies, always remember to be gloriously selfish with your happiness. When you shine with joy, others can glimpse their own happiness potential. If success seems elusive, it might be time to change your vantage point!
No, I'm not a psychologist or a doctor, but I do ponder over the intricate workings of the mind. Did you know that from birth until the age of six, kids are in a super learning phase, soaking in information like sponges? This information gets hardwired into their subconscious, acting as an auto-pilot guide for their behavior later in life.
The subconscious mind works tirelessly in the background, absorbing and processing massive amounts of data. It influences our behaviors in ways we often don't realize, especially during intense situations or when we're distracted. Its impacts can be as subtle as choosing the wrong answer on a test, to more significant outcomes like unconscious reactions in relationships.
When we are engrossed in a conversation or a task, the auto-pilot steps in to keep everything else functioning. However, it's governed by the programming we received during our early years. Its reactions aren't necessarily reflective of our true feelings but based on the subconscious tapes we've recorded.
Ever found yourself inexplicably arguing with your partner, or reacting in a way you didn't intend? That's your auto-pilot at work. It might be responding to a perceived threat based on past experiences, leading to a fit of rage, jealousy, or misunderstanding.
An interesting interplay of the subconscious mind occurs when you imagine future scenarios or relive past experiences with someone. By inserting ourselves into another person's visions of the future or memories of the past, we can create a sense of shared history and emotional connection, even if the relationship is relatively new.
The key to overcoming the sometimes misleading guidance of the auto-pilot is conscious awareness. Being present in the moment can help you identify when your auto-pilot is in control and assess whether its responses are appropriate. Awareness also helps you protect yourself from manipulative tactics that may exploit your auto-pilot's vulnerabilities.
