If You Rent It, They Will Come

Parties are crazy in downtown San Diego.

It was wonderful. Check out the view.

But that party reminded me of a wonderful game-related point. Don’t dare think that “if you rent it, they will come”.

A lot of guys think that if they get the fancy, sexy apartment with the most wonderful view, the hotties will naturally be attracted to them because of their wonderful abode. Unfortunately, it doesn’t work that way.

You may stumble upon a random chick (with the lowest self-esteem on the planet) that will be impressed enough by such that will accept your weak invitation back to your place. But so what??? That has little to do with you as a man and as a human being.

You as a man should be able to attract a woman based on you being you. Not because of the car you drive or the view from your balcony or the jeans or shirt or sport coat that you’re wearing at the moment. None of that matters after she realizes that you only have one sport coat or one pair of jeans or that your dad is paying your rent on the apartment that smells like feet.

What really matters is that you’re a cool guy who can help her enjoy life as much as you’re enjoying your life and that you enjoy her company as much as she enjoys yours. What really matters is that you can playfully tease her and she can understand when you’re joking and laugh too. What really matters is when it’s just you two left on the earth, you two will be happy with each other.

Homes and apartments and cars and shoes and pants and watches and jackets and spinning rims are all temporary. They are the ultimate distraction from the things that really matter in life. You should have something about you that goes above and beyond the material things that won’t be there if you lose your worthless job where you are easily replaceable and that you don’t like going to anyway.

What’s most important to you in a mate?

    Responsibility, honesty, sincerity…the list goes on!

    You made some really good points. If you’re going to go after things such as a nice car or place to live, do it for yourself and yourself ONLY.

    I really enjoyed this post.

    Sure having nice things is fine and dandy but at the end of the day, they are just THINGS.

    “What really matters is that you can playfully tease her and she can understand when you’re joking and laugh too.”- I love a guy that can make me laugh. Having a sense of humor is important because life can’t always be serious and sometimes you have to learn to laugh at yourself. It’s good having someone that you can laugh WITH and enjoy life with.

    I think you inspired me to write a post.

    I’m glad you guys enjoyed it. It makes it more worthwhile for me to post when I know people enjoy it.

    I’m glad I could be an inspiration to you Sarah. More people should aim to inspire people in a positive direction and get them to think about things that most people don’t take time to consider.

    I’m glad I wrote that post. It was something that I felt quite strongly about at the moment when I heard they were using half of their checks to pay rent.

    But most importantly, I’m glad you both agree. Because I’m right!
