This is sooo true! So, one must cultivate aloofness without complete
lack of interest. It's an art form.

I find that if I act interested in a woman, the woman will lose interest
in
me.
When I am not interested at all, like when I have a steady girlfriend, or
I'm
just too busy to date, they suddenly get interested. It's proof that
women
don't think logically, but rather react to being ignored by turning up the
heat. Any man will tell you that.

Lately I've been telling women I have no money to date. The inside of the
boat is a mess--I really don't want visitors right now. Yet twice in two
weeks women have dropped by the boat with a bottle of wine and romantic
notions. This time of year boats are better bait than a Corvette.

Now if I could only get them to stop by with West Marine gift
certificates!
Perhaps I should post a sign--no women on board without a WM gift
certificate! I bet they would bring them.

Last winter I couldn't get a date.

That's weird....you seem like a nice guy...maybe you weren't looking in
the
right places? Know what you mean though...a lady stopped Mr Sails in
the
parking lot of the grocery store when she saw our yacht club parking
sticker
on the rear bumper of my car...she started yammering to him about how
much
she enjoyed sailing yadyada and didn't see me crouched down behind the
door,
picking something up off the ground....I stood up and he immediately
said
"
It's my wife's boat...."
