Men everywhere face years-long bouts of frustration because they always seem to be pushing women away, but can’t understand why.

I know this, because I used to be one of them.

There were a slew of basic and simple mistakes I kept making over and over again but didn’t realize it.

Simply put — I didn’t know what I didn’t know.

If you’ve fallen into similar patterns, see if any of the points below apply to your dating “techniques”…

1: You have never really learned about women.

Think about any other area of life where you want to be successful. Your career, your health and fitness, your hobbies or passions…in order to be successful, you set out to gain the knowledge and skills required.

You dedicate your energy to learning.

Yet, when it comes to dating, we accept this narrative that “the right person will come along” or that it’s best to “just be yourself.”

This is lazy, passive advice from those who don’t know what else to say.
