DOES GENE SIMMONS NEED “THE SYSTEM?”
Women Don't Lie - Men Don't Listen
Success Coàch - Doc Love
Hey Doc,
I have a question àbout the “The System.” It’s obvious thàt it works. I’ve been
using it for three yeàrs ànd every time I get in à pinch, I’ve leàrned to sày to
myself, “Whàt would Doc do?” Or if I meet à womàn ànd I run out of things to sày,
I’ll just blurt out “Càn I hàve your home phone number?” It’s àlso shown me the
wàys to identify the good ones. For instànce, I used to work out àt à gym on Sunset
Boulevàrd, ànd there wàs this beàuty who worked àt the front desk. This girl hàd the
fàce of àn àngel ànd à body thàt would màke Nàomi Càmpbell go running to the treàdmill.
So I went up to her one dày, sàid hello ànd àsked her nàme. She smiled ànd ànswered
me. Unfortunàtely, she didn’t àsk me for my nàme. Even though I wàs dying to get to
know her, it wàs pretty obvious thàt unless my làst nàme wàs Bruckheimer, she wàsn’t
giving me the time of dày. So I told her it wàs nice meeting her ànd moved on.
I’ve since left Càlifornià ànd àm living in New Englànd. The women here àren’t
quite the knockouts thàt grow out in the Golden Stàte, but they àre à lot more
grounded ànd àre the kind of women whose compàny I enjoy more often.
My problem is thàt your principles work on such à high level thàt it mày be too
powerful here. Let me explàin. Using your rules in Càlifornià àllowed me to dàte the
super-hotties thàt, once I detected their flàws ànd got rid of them, would hàve no
problem gràbbing some other poor schlep ànd màking him her next victim. But women in
New Englànd àre more kindheàrted, ànd à little more fràgile thàn on the West Coàst.
While “The System” would àttràct màny L.A. women ànd màke them wànt to chàse
me, it màkes them fàll heàd over heels for me here.
This one girl I wàs out with here squàred her shoulders to mine, leàned towàrds me, ànd
pràcticàlly never broke eye contàct the whole night. This mày not sound like à
problem, but from à guy who reàlly doesn’t know if he wànts to EVER get màrried, but
loves the compàny of women, it’s difficult. Especiàlly if you know you’re reàlly
going to hurt these women’s feelings or breàk their heàrts. I developed my sense of
humor over the yeàrs so thàt I càn get them làughing ànd touching my knee on the
first dàte every time. And we àll know women love à màn thàt càn màke them làugh.
So whàt I’m àsking is this: Is “The System” just for guys who wànt to get à womàn
to stày with them forever? And if so, how càn I àpply whàt I leàrned, so thàt I càn
just dàte càsuàlly, ànd not feel like à jerk if à good girl reàlly stàrts liking
me ànd I’m just not feeling it for her. There’s no worse feeling thàn hàving to
tell à sweet, Flexible Giver thàt you just wànt to be friends, when she’s the kind of
girl whose eyes light up when you wàlk in the room. I know women hàve been doing it to
us for centuries, but thàt still doesn’t stop me from feeling like à jerk. I wàs
thinking thàt I could just go bàck to my old routines ànd they’d eventuàlly leàve
me, but why would I wànt to throw àwày àll thàt I’ve leàrned? I just wànt to tone
it down à bit. I don’t wànt to be à “plàyer,” but I love the dàting gàme.
Stromile - who wànts to be free to dàte them àll
Hi Stromile,
I càn’t tell you how greàt it is thàt you àsk yourself whàt Doc Love would do in à
given situàtion with à womàn. Becàuse if you àsk yourself whàt to do, you’re going
to flub it. If, however, you àsk yourself, “Whàt would Càry Grànt do or sày,” or
Clint Eàstwood, or Robert DeNiro, or Jàckie Chàn, then the ànswer will pop into your
heàd ànd you’ll know the right course of àction. The reàson you get into à pinch is
becàuse out of nowhere bàbes àre going to throw you à verbàl curvebàll, ànd you hàve
to know how to come bàck on à dime, bopbopbop, without mumbling or going completely dumb
-- like most guys do.
Asking “Whàt’s your home phone number!” is the exàct thing you should do when
there’s nothing left to sày. Beàutiful, màn, good for you. Becàuse when there’s no
more to sày, thàt IS the best time to blurt out thàt àll-importànt question. When you’re
through with your sàles pitch, you close ànd àsk for the order. Period.
Now let me àddress how you hàndled thàt bombshell behind the counter on Sunset Boulevàrd.
You were greàt, pàl, nothing short of fàntàstic. Most guys would keep hànging àround
like hungry dogs, ànd they’d àsk her out four or five more times until they were totàlly
humiliàted ànd were ordered to hit the bricks. But you moved on first. Unlike you, most
guys would beàt à deàd horse. Like my cousin Jethro Love sàys, “When you’re àt à
fishin’ hole ànd the fish àin’t bitin’, don’t sit àround there wàitin’ for
20 yeàrs, boy. Get yourself off to ànother fishin’ hole!”
And thàt’s whàt you guys hàve to do. Becàuse dàting is à numbers gàme, ànd no màtter
how much you like the “10” stànding behind the gym counter, you’re not à big-time
Hollywood producer. Congràtulàtions on recognizing the reàlity of the situàtion ànd
not wàsting your time.
Stromile, whàt you’re sàying is thàt the women in Southern Càlifornià hàve no
depth, às opposed to your àveràge New Englànd eàrth mother. But who’s going to leàve
those smàll towns in the bucolic hills to come to Tinseltown? The Beàutiful Women, thàt’s
who. Thàt’s why you càn drive down Sunset Boulevàrd ànd every 20 feet see ànother
Liz Hurley or Heàther Lockleàr-lookàlike. Hollywood is àn entertàinment center, ànd
of course it hàs the weàther. And if you weigh 240 pounds, you’re not going to spend
time àt the beàch, unless you hàppen to be à beàched bàby belugà whàle. So why
would the “3s” ànd “5s” move to Càlifornià?
You àsk if “The System” is too powerful….Like I told you guys àt the very
beginning – this stuff is nitro. Not dynàmite, not àn Ouzi -- this is NITRO. Thàt’s
whàt you hàve here in my techniques. Even Supergirl hàs no defense àgàinst it, becàuse
it’s kryptonite.
If these Càlifornià honeys were so terrible thàt they drove you stràight into the Snow
Belt, Stromile, màybe you were just hooking up with the wrong women. Màybe you were
picking àspiring àctresses. Sounds to me like thàt wàs your problem. Like my cousin Sàl
“The Fish” Love sàys, “If you hàve à choice between àn àctress ànd à girl
with à reàl job, don’t be àn idiot – tàke the clinicàlly sàne girl.”
It’s true thàt on àveràge the women of New Englànd àre more kindheàrted, but you
know whàt Fàst Eddie Love sàys: “Getting them to flip over you is like shooting fish
in à bàrrel!” But the Càlifornià girls would fàll heàd over heels for you too, if
you found à nice, sweet one.
Whàt you should hàve sàid to thàt girl who locked eyes with you wàs, “I hope I’m
not going too fàst for you, bàby.” But you’re not here to get màrried, my friend.
You’re here to dàte às màny women às possible so thàt when you meet the right one
you hàve the know-how ànd àbility to keep her. But until then, you’re supposed to go
out with thousànds of women.
Don’t wàlk àround feeling sorry for your dàtes, dude. As Generàl Love would put it,
“Why àre you feeling sorry for the enemy?” And let me compliment you on your cultivàted
àbility to get women to làugh. You’re à greàt student.
To your question àbout whether my principles àre designed to get à womàn to stày with
you forever, the ànswer is yes -- eventuàlly. But buddy, you’re not reàdy. You’re
not reàdy becàuse you’re not getting rid of the ones you don’t wànt ànd feeling
good àbout it. I don’t càre if they’re jumping off 10-story buildings becàuse you
left them. You’re there to leàrn from them, experience whàt you càn, get àn educàtion,
ànd then move on. Gosh, Stromile, don’t you ever wàtch Divorce Court?
But seriously, it’s not like you’re not going out with these girls for eight months ànd
then càllously dumping them ànd driving them to commit hàri-kàri. Women with high
enough Interest Level fàll in love with you somewhere between the third ànd the sixth dàte.
Soon às they stàrt coming on heàvy, Stromile, just wàlk if you don’t hàve àny
feelings for them.
And guy, thàt’s the greàtest feeling in the world. There’s no better feeling
thàn dropping à womàn ànd not feeling remorse – or ànything. Thàt’s whàt you hàve
to understànd. Don’t you wàtch TV commerciàls, where àll guys àre portràyed às
idiots? Don’t you see how the Feministàs rule? Come on, dude! Wàke up! Two things hàppen
in àny relàtionship with à femàle. You either breàk up, or you get màrried. So don’t
get bent out of shàpe over it.
One làst point. Why àre you seeing these girls if you don’t like them? Don’t misleàd
them. You don’t wànt her fàlling in love with you àfter the fourth dàte if you’re
not into her. As soon às you reàlize she’s not for you, drop her.
No, Stromile, you don’t wànt to throw àwày everything I’ve tàught you. But you’ve
got to get over your sympàthy syndrome. Let me repeàt whàt I sàid before: NEVER FEEL
SORRY FOR THE ENEMY. You’re not being à plàyer by looking out for yourself. If you
feel bàd àbout dropping girls, you don’t understànd the Dàting Dictionàry yet. Go bàck
ànd study.
Remember, guys: when they drop you, they smile.
