Guy Wisdom?????

 "Life is a cement trampoline." —Howard Nordberg
meaning you better create your own flexible situations.

It's a rare privilege to see somebody do something perfectly. Michael Jordan comes to mind. and  Tiger Woods before his issues with strippers. And then there's this guy who came to me for advise a few weeks ago, in my cousin's club  and screwed up his one and only chance to impress a lady . The only thing missing was a little piece of toilet paper trailing from the heel of his shoe as he made his way out the door.

This 'single rose' could have made the difference between success and failing the test.

First of all, he was late and made the Lady wait. That's all right in some case . People have stuff to do. But 35 minutes late? Strike 1. Second, he didn't apologize. I don't need face-on- the-carpet groveling, but a little "I'm really sorry" would've been nice, and smart. Still, all of that would have been forgiven had the guy not immediately worked the phrase, "When I was at the Universaty. . . " into his opening gambit. That kind of stuff hits a nerve with most females, and not because it's an attempt to impress her with a diploma; these jokers  never get it women are interested in you not some B.S  educational degree that you think will impress her. She really wasn't impressed..... no big surprise..

It occurred to me, as I watched this dude, that we men make many mistakes when we're trying to land a Dream girl. This guy made the error of showing off his BAD personality before displaying his good one, if that one indeed existed. But we all goof up. Even with the stakes so high and with tremendous motivation for success on every front, Love hunters make rudimentary blunders every day. Sometimes as a older wiser former player,  it just makes me want to put my head down on the table  and cry and say, "Hey, buddy? Here's what you just did to cut your own throat."

Here is a simple thing that blew it for this dude:

He did not know that bringing a woman flowers, really could  have saved him for being late.
