There is something that you must bear in mind, always. It's 女人選你,不是你選她.
And women are 一見鍾情 animals. Women hide some "secret criteria" in their hearts, and they will not reveal to you. They will even tell you the opposite of what they think because the opposite of what they think, when revealed to others, will make them appear good or classy.
First, they have to like your face. If they don't like your face, it does not matter what you do, they will only "toy" with you. In a way, you can say that man is justified by looks, not by works. Don't listen to all the bullshit about courage and sincerity. You are not a secondary 2 student with a bunch of growing pubic hair. Women play along with this philosophy of courage and sincerity because they lose nothing by having more gian png pursuers. It will prop up their market value, and they can use their higher value which you helped prop up to find another man who is better than you. You were never in the race from the start. Women never believe in courage and sincerity of the man.
Second, money will make any man appear handsome. If not handsome, charming. With money, you are able to offer the woman a wider choice of lifestyle. This is why for any man, money will make him attractive to women. And this is why owning a car, not PHV, is very important if you are into this game of pursuing women. With a car, the woman will see some hope in you. If you commute by MRT, you are no different from the corner seat boomer who plays his tik tok loud loud.
Third, righteousness is a poison when it comes to relationship with women. In this context, the opposite of righteousness is not evil. The opposite is docile. Docile is a very important quality if you are neither handsome nor rich. Women want to control the relationship, but if you are righteous like Kwan Kong they cannot bend you. Women will test you at the initial stages of courtship to see if you can be bent. They do this by a universal method called 無理取鬧.If you want to be fair and reason with them, it's immediate failure. If you lan lan siao siao and accept her 無理取鬧 and proceed to 哄她, you pass and move to the next stage.
