This document discusses the dangers of adopting a "player" mentality when interacting with women. It tells the story of the scorpion and the frog to illustrate that those who see relationships as only about sex ("it's my nature") will struggle even if they want something deeper. It advises building genuine social connections instead of relying on game strategies, and improving yourself authentically so that potential partners see the real you through open, honest communication.

2. Learning too much game can do more
harm than it's worth.

3. There's plenty of movies about some
ultra player who's ultra skillful with the
ladies, and has billions of notches on
beds all over town.

4. Then he meets "The One" but she sees
him as a true player.

5. Someone who's nature is to love 'em
and leave 'em.

6. Similar to the story of the frog and the
scorpion.

7. The scorpion begs for a ride, but the
frog says he'll sting him, and they'll
both die.

8. The scorpion pleads and pleads, and
finally the frog is convinced.

9. Halfway across the river, the scorpion
stings the frog, and they both die.

10. Just as they are going under, the frog
asks why, and the scorpion responds,
"It's my nature."

11. This is the danger of learning so much
game it becomes a part of who you
are.

12. So that any time you are talking to
girls, you are "game mode" where you
have one outcome, and one outcome
only.

13. To be sure, if you are absolutely
certain you never ever want to settle
down, then by all means.

14. But even if you are sure now, Mother
Nature has a way of messing you up
when you least expect it.

15. You may be happily hopping from bed
to bed, and then you get hit with the
thunderbolt.

16. Suddenly you're in love. You don't care
if you ever see or sleep with another
woman again.

17. Only problem is that girl you're with
sees you as a stone cold player.

18. And guess what?

19. You may be just like that scorpion.

20. The scorpion actually believed he
wouldn't kill the frog.

21. But Mother Nature won.

22. She always does.

23. How do you avoid this?

24. If you have any inkling that you'd like
to settle down in a real relationship
with real potential, leave the game
strategies behind.

25. Instead, practice simple social skills.

26. Practice talking to people, and
becoming generally interested in
them.

27. You'll slowly expand your social circle,
and build up a network of folks who've
got your back, and you theirs.

28. With a solid social circle as your
anchor, you'll learn talking to cute girls
doesn't require any hidden strategies
or ninja tactics.

29. Just open, honest communication.

30. No fear, no pretend nice guy or alpha
crap to protect your ego.

31. Let people see the real you, while you
continue to improve the real you.

32. You may be
surprised what
happens.
