This is a great post. (Was this spurred by your reviewing of David DeAngelo's products? haha)
Not enough people in the PUA/dating world give this particular perspective, though, and I appreciate that you are able to see beyond the BS and present the situation in the way it is.
I read a book a couple of years (it's a free ebook from an online forum called "The Book of Pook"....google it if you are interested...it's on a webpage called jbspencer I think) that presented this same sort of perspective to the guys (the book was for men struggling with women) and he encouraged men to stop focusing on using tips and tricks to get women and just go out and live their lives, build their own worlds, and be men. I loved it and I still try to live by a lot of the principles that are in that book today.
Seems like the search for compatibility has become a lost art in the dating world. Everybody seems to think that they can just get with someone and change them instead of using dating as a trial and error, weeding out process.
But this was a post I needed to read today and I agree wholeheartedly with you.
