The Art of Seduction

And almost everything you've been taught was aimed at the wrong one.

Long before anyone measured this, Robert Greene noticed the same fracture in the historical record In 2001, he published The Art of Seduction, and the first half of that book catalogs nine kinds of seductive people The siren, the rake, the ideal lover, the dandy, the natural, the coquette, the charmer, the charismatic, the star Green is a writer working from history, rather than a scientist running experiments, so hold his categories loosely.

But look at what the list is actually telling you.

Those nine contradict each other.

Then, if you do decide to get back together, you start thinking about pacing, and that's where Robert Greene comes in.

So, in The Art of Seduction, he talks about how absence and anticipation influence attraction.

And this is about what happens when your ex comes back.

You've been waiting for this moment, and now suddenly there they are.

got you

thank you the act of farming is so mechanical that without these rituals to like revitalize and reinvigorate the people like there'll be no purpose to it tilling the soil you till the soil so you can have food to survive but who cares to survive if there's no art if there's no beauty if there's nothing to live for and i'll talk to you a little bit about um Robert Greene's claim in The Art of Seduction.

He claims that the purpose of seduction, and maybe we'll get into it a little later, is to make sex more than just bodies.

Because if it was just about bodies, what you end up having is a violent society where men just rape and pillage.

One of the easiest ways to improve our social skills is to recognize the benefits of using words sparingly.

We should not strive to dominate all conversations, for as Robert Greene points out in his book, The Art of Seduction, talking endlessly about ourselves is eminently anti-seductive, revealing not self-sufficiency, but insecurity.

Rather than worrying too much about what we are going to say in social interactions, our focus should be on our body language.

Learning to enter social situations with a clear mind and body language that reflects a calm and confident character is a valuable skill to master, or as Green explains, It has been demonstrated how much people tend to judge based on first impressions and the difficulties they have in reassessing these judgments.
