Improving Our “Signals” and “Beings”

This is my review of a popular book for guys in the dating world that is available online by David DeAngelo titled Double Your Dating: What Every Man Should Know About How To Be Successful With Women (Second Edition).

David DeAngelo starts off by letting readers know that his Double Your Dating ebook is not an encyclopedia but a reference to being successful with women. It is not a be all and end all resource for attracting women… but it is a mighty fine start. He provides very strong foundations any guy must know in order to become successful with women and dating.

Coming from a decade’s experience in learning how to attract women, David knows how a lot of guys approach the subject of learning how to be successful with women. He mentions the need for guys to go out and practice the attraction skills he teaches. No great skill or canned pick up lines will make a guy succeed with women and dating if they are not practiced, adapted, and understood. To often he has seen guys take a mental standpoint where they mistake themselves for knowing the information while in fact, they do not put the skills to use. The skills he teaches are like any other and require practice.

This touches on another topic where guys complain about these attraction skills not being their natural selves. The author says the majority of guys have no idea how to attract women and their natural selves are what repel women away. By practicing and internalizing the information, guys are then given the privilege to behave as their natural selves. Being yourself is an earned privilege and not a right.

What David teaches is from his own personal experience so you can be certain his material works in the field. He briefly goes back a few thousand years and identifies the psychological factors in women that have not changed up unto this day. There are inherit differences between the way women and men think, feel, and behave. By taking advantage of these differences instead of letting them be confusing like they are to most guys, a guy is able to become more successful with women.

Many men new to attraction and the whole “pick-up scene” make the mistake of assuming women are only interested in handsome, tall, wealthy, and powerful men. These guys also mistaken women as wanting similar characteristics in men that guys want in women. David teaches that women are naturally attracted to handsome, tall, wealthy, or powerful men. These characteristics instinctively triggers a woman’s natural feelings of attractiveness towards a guy but a man who learns attraction building skills is able to elicit the same and more powerful feelings within her. What matters is how the man makes a woman feel and his personality and communication is the most powerful influence to do so.

Two general principles that I loved which stood out from Double Your Dating is the mindset you must have to become good at something and the need to constantly improve yourself. Though the ebook would help guys who are interested in quick and short-term tips to be successful with women, the guys who make the commitment and effort to practice the advice get far greater success with women than the guys who are after quick canned lines. Having a commitment and persistent effort is a sure way to get the most out of any goal you set out to achieve. The second principle of constantly improving yourself will do all guys a miracle in becoming more emotionally and physically attractive.

David teaches guys many activities in the ebook that I recommend to people for improving attitude, changing negative beliefs to empowering beliefs, and psychological betterment. These exercises improve many areas of anyone’s life and not just limited to helping guys become more successful with women. He gives good strategies on how to not let the fear of approaching women stop men from succeeding with dating. The advice he gives on removing fear which so many guys are burdened with are very powerful. I felt David was speaking directly to me with my past fears of going up to girl and getting rejected.

Another interesting point worth noting is “ass kissing” behavior like buying a woman’s affection is to be avoided at all times. The basis of the book is transforming these natural tendencies guys have into more challenging behaviors. A guy who is in control of his life and is able to tease women in a fun way communicates many attractive behaviors to a woman.

I’ve never advised guys to just use “traditional” communication skills like complimenting to get women interested. “Ass kissing” behavior is a big no-no and will usually hurt the level of attraction a woman feels. In any situation where the motive behind complimenting is manipulative, you can expect a poor response. These skills are risky everywhere and just not the dating world. David completely emphasizes this point in some very interesting communication styles that grab a woman’s attention. The communication styles and personality traits he advises men to develop go back to the instinctive attraction triggers most women don’t even know they have which turns them on. David explains that behaviors like complimenting a women get in the way of attraction.

The personality styles which turn on women is by itself enough reason to check out the ebook. These personality styles go beyond personalities that women love and are an entire life-changing “mindset”. One particular personality style of many I’ll share with you to demonstrate what I’m talking about is the “aggressive” personality. This personality isn’t about beating up women or being a jerk. The aggression refers to pursuing a goal with passion, persistence, and determination. A woman becomes attracted to a man who works aggressively towards his passionate goal. It communicates energy, protection, security, and a future outlook which ties in with the traits women are instinctively attracted to.

Quite possibly the greatest thing about Double Your Dating which was added in the second edition is the action exercises after every chapter. I cannot stress enough the need to practice any type of skill. Practicing is especially important in the dating world because fear unnecessarily prevents both men and women from dating success. A lot of people develop their fears from thinking too much and having a lack of experience. The action exercises act like little steps to get guys where they want to be in the dating world. These steps backed by a lot of real-world advice from the author means guys can go from not even being able to approach a girl too having a great long-term relationship.

Overall, I was very pleased with the book. David’s style of writing was casual which I know will appeal to a lot of guys who are interested in checking out the book. There are many “lines” given in the book which give you a strong frame of reference for creating your own lines but it is not the basis of the book. As the book is more of a reference to being successful with women, it isn’t filled with lines and other material. The given lines act like the framework for tough situations like his complete guide in what to do and say for getting a woman’s phone number. The book is a powerful reference for creating the “whole mindset” a guy must have if he wants to start dating more and getting beautiful women in his life.

I know men have done more than just double their dating after reading the book. Men have gone from dating zero women too ten a month. It’s crazy how much success some men have had with women after reading Double Your Dating. These men make a huge shift in becoming the selectee instead of the selected.

If you’re a guy and wondering how you can be more successful with women, this book will make you more than just in control of your dating life. I believe most men will be able to “mould with their hands” the kind of success with women they want IF they practice hard. Double Your Dating has my recommendations behind it!
