I hate to tell him women pretty much do the same thing.

Yes we do!

Call me old fashioned, but I thought "Box Theory" had to do with parimutuel betting, as in with horse racing.

Is there a box for "More trouble than they're worth"?

Because that's where I am at this point.

It doesn’t take 15 minutes, less than a minute.

Trim and good figure - 5 seconds.
The rest of the minute is to check whether they are a woke Nazi.
Done.

Best two books for quickly determining whether a person MIGHT be a match are Finding the Love of Your Life and Boundaries in Dating. Using the suggestions in those books, you can eliminate those who are not a match within 2-3 dates. After that, there are other considerations, but eliminating the obvious mismatches saves a huge amount of time when looking for a great match. Those strategies worked great for me.

‘It’s very difficult to shift from box to box and you’re behavior doesn’t affect what box you’re in,’ she said before adding that when you sleep with him - whether it’s the first night or the third date - won’t change his mind.


Actually, this is not true at all. Crazy, mean or woke women can easily end up in the “Want nothing to do with you” box.

50% of women are on psychiatric medication, the rest are running around untreated.

My version,

1. Breasts-Not too big, not too small

2. Ass-Not too big, not too small

3. Legs-Firm

4. Face

5. Personality

If a chick was attractive enough (which was usually concluded when was I in a close enough proximity to see her face and figure), that decision point was probably arrived at in seconds.

When conversing, the decision could take a minute, or up to a half hour. Some young women know not to show a side of their personality right away. I learned to identify a control freak fairly quickly, and thus didn’t date any.

Some things take a few dates or more to be discovered. When a lovely 19 yr old (5’10” brunette with a nice personality) that I dated, told me on our first date that she sold her car, I wasn’t alarmed. But when I offered a month or so later to let her drive my vette, she refused. Finally she admitted she had lost her DL because of dui.

Then one night, at her suggestion, we stopped at her older brother’s place to meet him. Her other two brothers were there, passing around a joint. She couldn’t resist taking a drag. She knew I didn’t do drugs, and had been quiet about the subject up to that point. In a few minutes we were driving away, and she couldn’t help but say, “that was some good stuff!”

I dated her almost 4 months, but was looking for the right time to move on, because I didn’t want to hurt her. So I came by less and less, and sure enough she found another boyfriend.

I never took advantage of a girl (my mother would have slapped HARD if she found out).

While in my meeting of my wife, a 15 minute measure was probably all I needed, I think it’s ridiculous to apply that measure to every encounter of an attractive/nice personality contact.

I’ve never slept with a fat chick. Not even mildly obese. Not even when they offered lewdly.
