Onto my regular column:
Recently Khiem and I were on the hike that we take a couple of times a week and we were waiting for Daphne to do her business. For some reason or other, Daphne cannot go to the bathroom unless there is grass.
So we’re walking very slowly, and Daphne stops suddenly and starts looking. We’re just talking and when Daphne stops, Khiem stops too, and he’s just looking. And so then I stop, and I start looking.
And all of a sudden, walking down the hill away from us, we see this incredibly sexy woman.
Now we could do the typical guy thing and chase her, which you know is something I am NOT a proponent of, or we could just say, wrong time, wrong place – that’s a missed opportunity.
So I decided to go for the latter of the options, because I’m not going to chase. But as we watched her walk into the distance, we all wondered: what if?
What if our paths crossed? What was she like? What does she look like from the front? From the back, she certainly looked great. She had a black Labrador Retriever, just like Daphne. What a cute couple the five of us would make – Khiem, Daphne, her dog, and us.
How much more fun could that be? Afternoon hikes, sunset walks – my mind was wandering, the deep romantic that I am. As it wandered, I wondered: what if?
As you all know from the blog, I’m not about what ifs. So this fantasy part of the blog is all wrong!
So here’s what really happened after we saw her:
Coming back from our hike, we saw her again, and she had the dreaded attachment. She had the computer virus.
You know that file that you get in your inbox, and it comes from somebody saying you either won the lottery in Egypt or somebody in Africa needs to deposit $10 million into your bank account? And it always comes with an attachment that they want you to open to make sure that your contact information is correct.
You know that if you open that attachment, you’re going to let a nasty virus into your computer (that is, of course, unless you own a Mac – I do, and I don’t have to worry about viruses. I just worry about the wheel of death coming up once in awhile and not letting me do anything!)
But here she was, walking towards us again, and she had the dreaded virus: the attachment. She came with a file. When we first saw her, we failed to notice – as her ass was bouncing down the trail – the dude that must have been 50 yards in front of her!
So when we saw her the second time around, there they were: a couple. Our dream girl was already attached; she had already found her dream boy.
So what is the moral of this story today?
The moral is: who gives a shit? It doesn’t matter! What did we do in this situation, and what did we do to capitalize it?
We still talked to her, and we talked to him. We had a great conversation, and found out the name of her dog – which was Lucy, by the way – and just spent some time talking with two cool strangers.
You know what most guys and women do? When other people see the dreaded attachment, they immediately delete the email! They throw that attachment in the SPAM box so quickly that they don’t ever have to deal with it again.
But, here’s the issue: that email has friends, and the next time you see her hiking, she might be with a cute single friend. And because you deleted the attachment the first time, by acting like an asshole and not saying hello or engaging her in conversation, the woman won’t remember you.
The next time she comes with that hot attachment – you know the one that your friend sends you with a message not to open it at work? – if you’ve been a nice guy and given her a great conversation the first time you met her (when she was with her male attachment) then she’ll remember you the second time. She’ll remember you as the cool guy that engaged her with her boyfriend.
And guess what? You’ve now got a warm lead! Her hot, sexy friend – the attachment you shouldn’t open at work – is now yours to have!
So next time, look at things a little differently!

This is funny… I didn’t realize David wrote me in his story LOL.
However, I do remember that day. That was a nice hike. Oh yeah… the woman was pretty good looking too ;p

Ah, David, first and foremost, great to debate with you. You did a great job, and handled yourself well. I’m eager to see the footage.
And very good presentation at the Art of Charm bootcamp.
Just my 2 cents here; I would have turned around and walked beside her and simply said, as matter of factly as possible(this is key!):
“Hi…I noticed you as you were walking the other way and I realized if I didn’t say something, I’d never get a chance to meet the person wrapped in all the pretty….my name is YOUR NAME HERE”.
The decision as to whether or not you are “chasing” is really up to HER; how does she determine the overall “feel” of your approach?
If you do it in a non-threatening and MATTER OF FACT way-VERY low key and very non-confrontational-and if you do it in a physical context that is not inherently considered dangerous: say it is daytime, in an open space with other people around-then she will more than likely at least be intrigued by the approach.
Note that what you are saying in this approach is 100% honest. There is no way she can dispute the truth of it:
1. You DID see her
2. You DID realize if you didn’t say something you’d never get to meet her.
Then there is the IMPLIED compliment-the person wrapped in all the pretty.
You are not directly saying, “I think you are pretty”.
It is implied, and when someone processes something that is implied, they have to actively find the meaning themselves, and therefore that meaning is interpreted as being their OWN thought, as opposed to something be imposed on them.
No disrespect or insult in this post. I would have handled it differently.
This, “I noticed you and realized if I didn’t say something I’d never get to meet you” is my “fall back” approach that I teach when you can’t figure out what to say or extract a good working observation from her or the environment.

Yah, being a chill dude, just out socializing, going with the flow works awesome.
Here is what I do:
1. Create or assume attraction, depending on context.
2. Connect.
3. Gently mention my attachment… a man like me
being single, that’s just not congruent. Women won’t
believe it.
4. Create social opportunity with me, or with me and
my girl, or with my girl.
Works gold.
