What does she like to read or eat? Who does she admire? What does she like about her job? What doesnât she like? Who would she most like to meet? Is something big happening in her life? Is she up for a new job? Is her sister having a baby? Is her dad sick? What is it that she admires about the lady who sits in the cubicle next to her? What does she hate about her?
âYou need to know these things because this is how you are going to spark new and interesting conversations with her the next time you see her. She will be so surprised that you remembered she was up for a new job or that she was about to become an aunt for the first time. Most men never learn this step. They spend entirely too much time talking about themselves, and not enough time talking to the woman. And what she tells them, they donât bother to remember.
âSo with this technique, my friends, you will stand out bigger than the rest. You will have her waiting at the coffeehouse looking for you so she can tell you the next big thing that just happened in her life. And you will be all too interested to hear about everything. Afterward, you will offer follow-up questions about the things you talked about last time.
âSo when does the sex come in? With this particular technique, I average about six weeks. By the third week, sheâs at my place or Iâm at hers. By the fourth week, we are touching casually.â
âWhat do you mean âcasuallyâ?â one of the men blurted out.
âI mean, when you briefly grab her hand while you talk to her. Or, as you are watching a movie, you briefly place your hand on her thigh before removing it. Itâs when you hug when you arrive and when you leave,â James explained.
âBy the fifth week, you will be kissing. You will not need to mention your girlfriend after this point. The coffee lady has had enough of her by now. On the sixth week, you do something special. Offer to take her to the beach for the weekend to celebrate finishing up that project or completing her classes for the semester. This is the week she will be in a hotel room screaming your name.
âMen, listen to meââJames bent downââI donât care if you collect garbage for a living and this woman is the CEO of a Fortune 500 company. If you patiently follow my techniques, you will not fail.â The students started to clap.
âWomen are always complaining about there being no romance in a relationship. Men think romance is expensive dinners and flowers, but real romance is much cheaper than steak and roses. Have you ever seen an ugly, broke man with a beautiful woman?â The men nodded. âSure, if you have money, power, good looks, you can have your share of women, but when you donât have that, you just have to work a little harder. If you stick with me, Iâll give you a step-by-step growth plan. The technique I told you about today is only the beginning.â
Jamesâs heartbeat suddenly started to race. His hands and face started to sweat and his throat felt dry.
âAre you okay, sir?â one man asked.
James didnât respond.
Another man shouted, âSomebody call 911!â
Of course, James wasnât okay, but how was he supposed to explain to them that their fearless leader was not fearless anymore? And even though he had never had a panic attack in his life, he was almost certain he was having one now.
He needed to find a way to speak. He drank a sip of water and put all of his effort into saying, âGentlemen, I just remembered something. I have to go. Feel free to e-mail me whatever questions you may have. See you next week.â
The men looked at each other, puzzled, but James grabbed his belongings and stumbled for the parking garage before anybody could stop him.
