You won’t always be a girl’s first choice. Yet there are distinct
advantages to being her first choice guy – and drawbacks when you
aren’t it.
Sometime back, in “Attraction is Either There, or It Isn’t”,
we talked
about two sorts of attraction. The first was what I called
‘fascination’, where a woman is attracted to you from the get-go; a
kind of instinctive, unconscious attraction that is simply there. The second was excitement:
a degree of liking, intrigue, attachment, or arousal you build up
with time, even if fascination isn’t there at the outset.
Today’s article is related to this, though slightly
different. We’ll talk about a girl’s first
choice guy... versus her second
choice guy or her third
choice guy.
The first choice guy will usually be a guy she starts off with
fascination-type attraction for. When you are her first choice, some
aspect of you strikes her. You rocket to the top
of her list of men she’d like something to happen with: could be a
hookup, could be a fling, could be a long-term relationship. She knows
she’d like something to
occur.
Most of the time, with most women you encounter, you’ll be a second
or third choice guy (or lower).
This is just how it works – you won’t have insta-compatibility with
most women, just like most women won’t have insta-compatibility with
you. As your fundamentals get tighter
and you get better at talking to women and making things happen
with them,
you’ll have more smoother interactions and will meet both more ‘first
choice’ girls as well as do better with more ‘second choice’ and ‘third
choice’ girls.
It’s less important to be her first choice when you’re on the prowl
for flings. That said, if you have your pick of women, it’ll almost
always go easier and be more fun with girls
you’re a first choice for. It’s
more important to be her first choice guy when it comes to choosing
women for relationships... for a variety of respect,
compatibility, and fidelity reasons.
