The Right Answer is "Who Cares?!"

David Wygant  Attraction and Dating Expert

 

     Recently I was hanging out in Whole Foods with a couple of clients.  There was a woman who was standing near the fruit while I was picking out a peach.  I looked at her and I said, "Man, these really don't smell at all." 

 

     She said . . . absolutely nothing.  She went into total mute mode.

 

     So what did I do?  Absolutely nothing!

 

     I didn't really care.  It didn't really make much of a difference to me.  What does it matter to me?  My clients asked me "Well, what could you have done differently? What happened?"

 

     My answer to them was this: "Who cares?  Let it go.  She just didn't respond.  I approached her with an observation and she simply didn't respond.  Do you really want to hang out with somebody who doesn't talk to you?  Do you want to hang out with a mute?"

 

     The truth is that in a situation like this, it doesn't make much of a difference why a woman doesn't respond to you.  You may never know. 

 

     In the time the guys spent analyzing why that one woman didn't respond, they missed four other cute women standing by the salad bar checking us out.  While they were so busy wondering what I could have done differently, they missed the next opportunity. 

 

     Your feeling about an interaction like I had should be, "Who cares?!"  You need to stop having the attitude that you need to be successful in 100% of your interactions with women or that you can "get them all. 

 

     Think about it.  Why would you really want to get them all?  Do you really have so much time that you're able to date them all?

 

     You want to get the gems.  You want to go for the women who respond to you, not the ones who ignore you. 

 

     That woman by the peaches ignored me.  I don't care.  If you asked me now what she looked like, I probably couldn't even tell you anymore.  Life moves on, and so should you.  Remember, life is a marathon not a sprint. 

 

     So from this point forward if a woman doesn't respond to you when you've done everything right, then you should always say to yourself "Who cares?!" and move on!  There are plenty of other women out there.  Life starts again from the second that woman blows you off.  At that very moment you have the opportunity to see what other opportunities are waiting out there for you!

 

All the power to you.

hmm I identify with the girl:) 

 

I used to be the girl to ask a boy out but found this not to be working for me as it build resistance and/or rejection and I could never feel sought out. So I'm changing this and it's very very hard :)

 

I went out on a date the other day and I was so nervous that the only thing I remembered afterwards was his voice really kind and calm and his hand reaching out to mine and holding it ... warm and dry.

 

my inner voices too were really horrible:hypercritical of me of him. it was really unpleasant to be me :)

 

He was really nice and I eventually settled down but we had a very limited amount of time as we had decided to meet over lunch.

 

My sister calls them Oh sh*t dating moments.

 

I re-contacted the person to give him some feedback and let him know that I was sorry that I had not been able to be present from the beginning he was glad because he had thought that I had not liked him.

 

we met again yesterday. he took me to dinner and entertained me the whole evening. This time I was all there:) present and engaged but there was no room for me to talk. Today I feel very bad because I'm wondering if he felt as though he had done all the work, if he wonders if I have any opinions at all... 

 

at the end I wanted to get closer and missed a cue when he wanted to lend me his jacket against the cold (I'm not used to being taken care of and tend to be very blunt and litteral)

 

I'm learning to let myself be approached, to listen for advances, to recognize windows of opportunity and trust myself to respond appropriately and creatively and find it very difficult, very frightening not because I am afraid that the person can hurt me but because I never know why the person is talking to me or what they want or when they stop talking to you , what made them stop.

 

So gentlemen don't worry about second guessing yourselves or about possible rejection, as initiators you get to wield a lot of power too :) so on behalf of mute girls or shy ones, be gentle men too.

 

wish me another date :) I need to practise some more
