Sports & Dating <\/span><\/h2>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0 A while back, while in Scottsdale Arizona, Jon and I started talking about sports again.\u00a0 Both avid basketball fans, we enjoy little discussions about the NBA.\u00a0 I, of course, am the long time Laker fanatic and he hates the Lakers mainly because of one Kobe Bryant.\u00a0 Our personal team differences aside, a common observation you’ll make is that a lot of guys who seek dating advice are not into following any sports.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Actually, a common theme is that a lot of the guys even teaching dating don’t follow sports.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0One could dismiss that as just another hobby.\u00a0 I’d like to make the observation that the majority of the guys have never played any sports.\u00a0 As a side note that may explain the lack of interest in following sports\u00a0 Normally, if you play basketball, football or even Tennis, chances are very likely that you’ll end up following the professionals in the sport you enjoy participating in.\u00a0 There is a natural curiosity to watch that particular sport played at very high level.\u00a0 Back to the point:<\/p>\n

\u00a0What’s the relevance of having played sports?\u00a0 It helps develop and define certain aspects of one’s life and it plays a role in an individual’s development.\u00a0 Obviously, not everyone is going to have equal athletic skill and yet even those who claim low athletic talent can still participate in sports as a hobbyist.\u00a0 Let’s take playing pick-up basketball games.\u00a0 (Pick-up basketball does not denote any sort of seduction.)\u00a0 It’s playing games at local courts where random individuals (or friends) form teams to play against each other.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Just playing those games helps you learn to compete on some level.\u00a0 It helps in reinforcing the importance of practice and it probably instills some humility because unless you’re a superstar, you’re going to lose some of the time.\u00a0 It also helps build camaraderie between guys who play often together and it also teaches you to stand up for yourself.\u00a0 There are typical experiences shared by all.\u00a0 For example, let’s take playing “Pickup Games” of Basketball on the playground.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0At some point, on that basketball court, some guy is going to push you around, and chances are it’s because he is bigger than you.\u00a0 You’re going to have to push him back.\u00a0 You may not want to do it, but you know that you have to.\u00a0 It may even escalate into something more, but as the saying goes, “you gotta do what you gotta do!”\u00a0\u00a0That act will help build courage.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0This is not to say that it’s a comprehensive solution to all problems.\u00a0 One look at certain professional athlete’s today will you that they can behave like petulant children as much as anyone officially enrolled in Kindergarten.\u00a0 It’s just one piece of the puzzle.\u00a0 It’s an important piece that guys seeking dating advice have potentially have missed out on.\u00a0 I am sure you’ll run into plenty of guys who do play sports and still have issues in meeting women.\u00a0 So, just to be clear: I am not saying that playing sports makes you a ladies man.\u00a0 As the saying goes, “It helps round you out”.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0There is a certaind demeanor that comes from having been involved in athletics and sports.\u00a0 At times, you look at a guy and you know he’s never a played a sport in his life.\u00a0 It’s not that he is fat or out of shape, but from the sheer stance of\u00a0his wobbly body language, you know he has not partaken\u00a0in athletic endeavor.\u00a0\u00a0I think at one\u00a0point, Jon and I\u00a0tried to figure out how many of the “Dating gurus” of the “Seduction Community”\u00a0had really ever engaged in sports even in high school.\u00a0 And…….. we couldn’t find very many. \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0 How can this information benefit you?<\/p>\n

\u00a0 For one, get involved in doing some sort of physical activity.\u00a0 If you do nothing, then start with something.\u00a0 Doing anything is better than doing nothing.\u00a0 What if you’ve played any sports in your life?\u00a0 If you want to take it one step further, then enroll in some sort of sport that’ll enable you to compete for fun.\u00a0 If you’re older, you may find it to difficult to suddenly start playing a sport like basketball or American style tackle football.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0But then, you could still pick up a sport like Tennis, and learn to play against other people in your age range.\u00a0 If you live in the U.S, you could join a weekend softball team.\u00a0 Team sports would usually be preferred because they force you to interact with other people.\u00a0 I’ve even seen cycling clubs where swarms of people meet up to go bicycling together on weekends.\u00a0 You may not be competing in the latter example, but you’re partaking in something fun, productive, with social circle potential built into it.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0 Any of these activities are going to help you much more than joining a “Seduction lair” where you swap stories with other guys who have no social circles about how many girls you’ve just approached the past week.\u00a0 If you don’t know what a seduction lair is, you’re better off.\u00a0 Please ignore & forget this paragraph you’ve just read.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0Getting involved in activities will pay dividends that are far more fruitful in the long run.\u00a0 It may not be easy at first, especially if the last time you exercised was when Clinton was President.\u00a0 Being able to get along well with other dudes is at least half the battle because it enables to individual to form relationships and friendships outside a community solely devoted to “Sarging Women.”\u00a0\u00a0 You can still read good advice and apply it, and you’re more than welcome to read my Blog and take what you can away from it, but get away from lairs, get involved in fitness, sports, and forming more relationships with normal guys.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0My guess is 8 out of 10 guys reading this will probably not get involved in any sort of fitness program nor will they start playing some sport as a hobby.\u00a0 They’ll like the idea and it’ll sound good on paper (or as electrons on screen) but application is different than information.\u00a0 Strive to be the part of the 20% who’ll move forward and do something.<\/p>\n
