You boys are missing my point. I've listened to Leykis for years. I'm just curious in an open forum from different cities inputting what thoughts came along with that process.

Leykis has been married and divorced four times, although he has never had any known children. His fourth wife, Susan Leykis, filed a police report against him while they were married and living in Boston in 1993. She told police that Leykis assaulted and threatened to kill her during a fight after they returned home from a radio station Christmas party. The charges were dropped after he agreed to complete a domestic violence program and go on probation for one year, although Leykis did not admit guilt as part of the agreement. [1] They separated in 2001 and divorced in 2003. He lives in the exclusive enclave of the Hollywood Hills in Los Angeles.

Leykis doesn't know anything about having a family or how to treat a good, strong, independent woman. He does offer sound advice dealing with the reality of causal dating in Los Angeles.

Anyway, to the author of this thread. It did appear through you depiction and language that you were proud of urself, talking about THE BEST MOVE IN THE BOOK, etc.... If I got it wrong, I take back what I said. You should of framed it better in that case.

Honestly, you only got what the girl was willing to give so take it easy there playa and don't bust a load prematurely.

Umm, I don't know if I'm part of the "Resident 3 girls"of e90 but I'm a chick... and I commented. But reading all this you can't hate on slubu for this.

I mean honestly, I think it's kinda sad that this girl will put up with that and slubu is right... it is what is working for him so it creates an idea that that is a good way to act.

As a girl I've dated asses and I've dated nice guys/pushovers and it's best to find someone in between and the balance is what is key.

Thats great - lets keep women down by treating them how they have been treated for thousands of years.
umm..yeah. i dont think slubu is trying to keep "women down." thats what women's magazines are for (glamor, cosmo, ...ect.) no in all seriousness though, it just sounded like he was just teasing her. for shit and giggles. there seems to be a fine line between "teasing" a girl and making fun or her/treating her like crap. (esp. in internet talk, where you cant get a real sense of the person talking, and by sense i mean expressions, emotions...) i think slubu was trying to teaser her and some one you are intreprting as the latter.

my apologies to you geeslice, i was just being sarcastic. but glad you hear and i see you got you 3 on order, so thats why maybe you fell under my radar.

i was thinking about this thread and what if, this is just a culture/age difference thing. im about the same age as slubu and similar backgrounds so.cal college grad and maybe thats just how it is here in so.cal. maybe theres more pressure on the women here, than say the midwest, and have lower self-esteems, thanks to the media-drivin so cal culture. and for the older crowd with families maybe you guys are instinctively protective and view slubu's actions as childish/ hurtful. maybe maybe oooo this thread is getting interesting...

I agree w/ the above assesment. Girls here tend to follow whatever it is they see in the fashion magazines and television. Sounthern Califronian youth lives in a very fast paced culture that never looks at the big picture, just the here and now. Hence the kinds of relationships they get into. In truth I think this has been a great discussion, has given me just that much more a scope into the minds of the fellow male population and the different experiences we encounter, not that that this is of any sentimental value, it isn't, but fun.

Girls don't like nice guys, women do.

slubu - kudos to you for having the balls to start this thread and share. As you guys already said, so. cal. girls are, for the most part, slop. The exceptions are the ones that come from other places. They are all head cases and if you want some pussy than use those tricks like treating them like shit. But as some others have noted, this is not the way to get a nice, down-to-earth woman. If you just wanna get laid, what you are doing will work. It has worked for me plenty in the past.

I love Tom Leykis but I think he is a lonely dude deep inside. I agree with our midwest friend, noflash, that the sleep with as many chicks as possible/ treat them all like dirt approach will lead to a very lonely 40 year old.

I am writing this from Utah of all places. Let me tell you. these are some happy people here. scary nice folks here. Most are mormons and they have wonderful families with lots of kids and (seem) happily married. Its a real eye opener for me. Here I am happy about a stupid car (E90), but these people really know the secret to a happy life.

i disagree here. i think its incrediably unfair to say all, even most, so cal girls are slop. nay, my friend. women here are exposed a lot more direect/indirect media as to what their "supoosed" to be/look like. put any women from any where and put them in the so cal culture and youre bound to get corrupted. this doesnt make them any less of a women, theyre just adopting to their enviornment. its what we do as people. and trust me these forced values goes both ways, so we as males have to adopt to these standards as well. but i believe these vlaues imposed on us are only skin deep. we "act" a certain way but this does not define who we are. example: we feel we have to be "fashionable" to be accepted but just because you go out and buy a nice outfit doesnt make you shallow. okay, well that example is a bit shallow but you get the point.

so these "games" are just that, games. its the new-age mating ritual/dance. but once you get past the whole shallowness of it all you still get the real person beneath it all. maybe its an a-hole or some nice gal/guy. but thats later. dont hate the game, because we, as a whole, created this monster.

I think your dating style is terrible,obviously you're still single.I think you need to be yourself(assuming you have nice manners).If a girl really likes you she wont be turned off by you showing interest.Dating has to be a natural process not some calculated moves you get from some book.If I was a girl I wouldn't want be with someone who's playing hard to get or who's calculated.
How about being spontaneous,just be yourself,but at the same time don't call her like 10 times a day to tell her you love her etc that'll be scary.
We have a couple nice girls here Bella Nikki,Enroute,what do they think of your dating style?

I don't know how old you and slubu are but I am 23 and I think part of it is because I'm a girl that I think it's gross what slubu is doing but as I said before he's not completey to blame. It takes two to tango and if she's putting up with that... she needs as much help as he if not more. Perhaps I'm more critical of the girl because I am a girl and as for all girls there has always been some guy who didn't treat you right and it's easier to say "she should have walked away" because that's what i did.

As for age/cultural differences. I live in the DC suburbs and things are pretty screwed up here. I haven't been so SoCal since I was younger but I can barely relate to girls my own age let alone a few years younger. Things are culturally speeding up in general I believe across the country, although some might be faster than others. I remember when I was in HS the average age for someone to lose their virginity was 16 which I thought was young... now I hear it is 12/13. It's just kinda sad... and it's not like I'm some crazy conservative bible-thumping person I just wish kids could be kids and not little adults. I know I would have prefered to be a kid for longer... especially now that I'm in the "real world"!!!

haha, try living HERE. Doesn't sound that much different, but this is an extremely fast paced culture as I said before. Has never clicked w/ me, I was raised w/ a somewhat midwestern mentality, so it's a safe assumption that i'm "old fashioned", and damm proud of it.

old news.

no means no?


for some of these females, as soon these females can wake up from her own born spell to realize that the pull to a 'jerk' does not translate to a functional husband/father, she can then make the realization to go for the 'nice' guy even though during the courtship phase she doesn't feel her buttons being pushed and her hormones shaken the same way.

perhaps the difference between a girl and a real woman.

7 When a GIRL calls you everyday, ...She is seeking for your attention.

8. When a GIRL wants to see you everyday,She wants to be pampered.

9. When a GIRL sms's u everyday,She wants you to reply at least once.

10. When a GIRL says I love you, She means it.

11. When a GIRL says that she can't live without you, She has made up her mind that you are her future.

12. When a GIRL says "i miss you", No one in this world can miss you more than that. (",)

but seems like these things are premature for your situation, but once you reach a homerun, its here for your review
