THE BLOG
(There's a new video on "The Car You Drive")
=====
IN THIS EDITION: Some fear exclusive relationships and avoid them
like the plague. Others tend to jump into LTRs (long-term
relationships) with the first person who shows interest. Stop the
madness...whoever you are.
=====
FINALLY...Deserve What You Want, The AUDIOBOOK
It's finally done. I realize a lot of you guys aren't so into
cracking a book, so I've done if for you. For whatever reason,
you'd much rather listen than read.
I've heard you, as of RIGHT NOW the AUDIOBOOK version of Deserve
What You Want is on the loose.
Now get every single word, from cover to cover, all in a convenient
MP3 audio format.
Tons of you have asked for this, since you'd love to listen at the
gym or on the airplane without being tied to your computer and/or
printing out almost 200 pages.
So here's the deal. Get what would amount to seven CDs worth of
audio for you iPod / MP3 player, AND I'll still give you the
written e-book as a "reference manual" along with all the bonuses.
Here's your chance to discover all the foundational secrets to
putting away the past, finding out what you want in a woman,
deserving what you want and GETTING the highest quality women in
your life.
In fact, plan on almost FIVE HOURS of my most foundational material.
After all, this is the book that got it all started.
Bottom line: If you've been putting off reading Deserve What You
Want hoping for this audio version, your day has come.

By the way, this is also an EXCELLENT chance to get in on the
monthly Power Sessions "2-for-1 effect".
The new one, out on the 15th, will be all about how to get physical
with a woman in the way SHE wants you to WITHOUT creeping her out
and blowing it.
But until then, you'll get treated to the current one on how to have
a solid plan for your dating life.
You get a month F-R-E-E with any order if you so choose, and this is
like getting a second bonus audio.

WHEN TO GO "EXCLUSIVE" AND WHEN NOT TO
By now it is my sincere hope that you are making your OWN decisions
with regard to dating multiple women at once versus selecting a
steady girlfriend.
After all, the truth is that how you conduct your dating life is
your business, and there is no valid reasoning to support slapping
a value judgment on how you do so.
And yeah, I realize that doesn't stop the "mainstream" dating advice
crowd from telling you one thing and the PUA "bootcampers" from
telling you the exact opposite...as if each respective side's mutually
exclusive viewpoint was "absolute".
You'd think there's no middle ground.
And really, you never, ever hear about how to handle any potential
PROGRESSION from dating multiple women now to possibly selecting
one for a more stable relationship later.
From what you read out there, it really is made out to be an "all
or nothing" deal.
You're told either to go sarging as much as possible and hopefully
build a collection of HB's contact info, or you're admonished to
think more in terms of building a monogamous relationship from minute
one.
Well, once again, welcome to yet another newsletter about a topic
you've likely NEVER, EVER heard mentioned elsewhere.
To be sure, I'm not going to tell you IF you should have an
exclusive girlfriend or not.
No pre-determined outcomes. No agendas.
Instead, just straight talk on how to handle the decision to go
exclusive with a certain woman...or not.
Almost every day, it seems, I hear from guys who want to date lots
of women, but have found themselves in a steady relationship they
never really asked for explicitly.
Or, I hear from guys with the opposite problem. They really want a
great girlfriend and someone to build a future with, but having
focused on pickup techniques they're left wanting when it comes to
relationship management skills.
Well, today I've got your back on this issue.
Here, in simple English, are three UNACCEPTABLE reasons to make a
woman your steady girlfriend, followed logically by three
OUTSTANDING reasons to go exclusive:
THREE UNACCEPTABLE REASONS TO GO EXCLUSIVE
1) She's the only one you're dating anyway
OK. You feel as if you don't have any other options and don't see
any on the immediate horizon. But you DO have a woman who
actually seems to like you. Why not just make her your steady
girlfriend? Seems uncomplicated enough.
And indeed, this is how things go for A LOT of guys out there. I'd
dare say the MAJORITY.
I thought about devoting an entire newsletter to the concept of how
if ONE woman is wildly attracted to you, it almost GUARANTEES that
there would be others. And that's pretty much true.
Some guys truly are at "ground zero" when it comes to attraction
and aren't yet deserving what they want. But other guys are
passively sleepwalking through life and only end up with a woman by
default, basically.
Out of happenstance, a guy may be introduced to a woman and end up
on a first date with her. Date one turns into date two, and so on
until what we're talking about here happens.
And what's next? That nagging feeling of having SETTLED, that's
what.
If you can get one woman in your life, you could theoretically have
options if you summon the confidence to believe it. Apart from
that, you are operating from a position of very limited personal
power.
2) She cajoled you more than others
You may actually have several women you are casually dating, all of
whom are interesting and interested.
But often there's that one woman who levels the ultimatum on
exclusivity a bit earlier and with decidedly more conviction than
the others.
Since she's so vocal about it, and since you kind of like her, you
capitulate.
And "capitulate" is a profane word around here. It rhymes with
"settle".
For that matter, if you look up "capitulate" in the dictionary,
it'll probably say "gave away all his power to a woman who lost all
respect for him almost immediately after he caved in to her demands."
Careful here. I'm NOT saying that any woman who wants an exclusive
relationship with you should be denied categorically.
I AM saying that you shouldn't kowtow to HER decision to be
exclusive...especially if it's not YOUR decision also.
3) You feel like you've got to "lock her down"
Maybe you have some options, but then the World's Hottest Woman
shows up in your life.
You have this "OMG" moment and start scrambling to make her your
steady girlfriend because... 1) She's the most ridiculously sexy
chick you've ever dated and you've got to make her yours, and... 2)
...if you don't, you're afraid some other guy will.
First of all, remember that if a high-quality woman shows up in
your life, that's to be treated as having RAISED THE BAR. It's not
to be considered a "stroke of luck".
This is kind of a logical progression to the concept of having the
ability to attract ONE begets the ability to attract MANY.
Indeed, this woman is simply an indicator that you have earned the
ability to attract a higher echelon of women. So continue the
rational progression of seeing how well you two get along before
getting serious, please.
But more importantly here, you are seriously damaging you own
attractiveness here by jumping all over her. Remember, getting
kills wanting...especially if you're trying to hold onto her with a
"death grip" very early on.
And most importantly, um...you CAN'T lock another human being down,
dude. She can still leave you, even if she's you're steady
girlfriend.
THREE OUTSTANDING REASONS TO GO EXCLUSIVE
1) You know what you want in a woman
If you haven't dated many women at all, how do you know what you
REALLY want?
If you've dated your share of high-quality women and you've had a
chance to fine-tune exactly who it is you're looking for, then
you'll be WAY better equipped to recognize her when she shows up in
your life.
And if you find yourself in the mood to actually HAVE an exclusive
relationship with her, it's probably because of the next point...
2) You've left no curiosity unanswered in the dating world
Here' a truth that's about as simple as truth gets: If you're
still interested in dating lots of women, then you probably aren't
interested in choosing one of them from the mix at this point.
If you end up in a steady relationship under such circumstances,
you'll probably end up with your nose pressed against the glass
looking at "greener pastures" outside.
And this will be the case no matter how great your girlfriend is.
After all, you weren't in the "relationship" state of mind just yet.
On the other hand, what if you've been dating sixteen women at
once, and have grown tired of all the juggling?
Let's say you narrowed that field down to four or five at that
point. And after a while, you then started realizing that you had
met and enjoyed the company of lots of incredible women but were
now thinking more about stability and long-term vision than you
have in the past.
It's about then that you may realize that one woman on your list is
by far your first choice. Were she available every night, you'd
see her instead of the others.
Well, that woman would be a GOOD choice for an exclusive
relationship, I'd say. You will have selected her from many
options and with a solid frame of mind.
3) You have tested and approved her ultimate worthiness
Even if you have a firm grasp on what runs your guns as far as
women go, and even if you have a pile of women in your life,
there's always the off chance that one's going to come along who
flat-out knocks your socks off.
The switch gets flipped and she's basically all you can think of.
Whoa there, cowboy.
You've been around the block to know that it takes sweet time to
qualify a woman fully. Spend loads of time with her in common,
everyday situations.
Mix it up some. Meet her friends and vice-versa. Go on that
all-important road trip I talked about in a newsletter a couple of
months ago.
You've got to make sure you know that what's under the hood has the
horsepower to back the sexy bodywork. Otherwise, she's "all show
and no go".
And true character takes time to show forth in its fullness.
Take your time and decide from a position of strength. And deserve
what you want also, because a great woman like her is probably as
tuned in to reason as you are.
You'll notice that conspicuous by its absence from either list is
"because she's pregnant". That's either the subject of a whole
'nother newsletter, or something that needs to be handled on a
case-by-case basis. I'm still trying to figure out which it is for
sure.
But either way, guys, the one thing is DO know for sure is that you
have GOT to be a man who makes his own informed decisions in the
dating world rather than being subject to the whim of someone else.
And that new audio version of Deserve What You Want is an
outstanding way to build a rock-solid foundation for a life of
attracting fantastic women and gaining full control of your dating
life.

Tons of guys just like you are calling and e-mailing with questions
that often boil down to feeling powerless when it comes women
and/or thinking you have very few--if any--options out there. My
life mission is to change that.
So the option is yours...read or listen.
But either way TODAY is the day to finally make a very simple but
absolutely crucial move toward deserving the women you've always
dreamed of attracting and welcoming them into your life.
That's when choices like what we've talked about in this very
newsletter, for example, become ones you can make from a position of
strength rather than weakness.
I know first hand how it feels to have that kind of dominion over
my own personal life, and I want more than anything for you to
experience it also.
Here's that link again...make the choice to discover the secrets to
deserving what you want. Pop it in your iPod and enjoy this
glorious Sunday afternoon.

And I'll talk you again soon.
Be Good,
Scot McKay
P.S. If you are in a country that celebrates Mother's Day today,
remember to call your Mom. And if you are DATING a single mom, do
something cool for her today.

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT:
If you haven't figured it out already, my friend Stephen Nash from
Cutting Edge Image Consulting and I think a lot alike.
Well, according to him, it's "doe season". In honor of that, he's
got a rare, unusual opportunity for you guys. He calls it "The Way
Of The Natural", and it's a must if you are into discovering more
of your own "natural game" style.
Here's what Stephen says he's got going on:
1) Instant access to "Natural Attraction" 7-day audio program
files (mp3 format) & workbook
2) 6 "Natural Game" teleseminar teaching sessions that begin next
week--where he is going to nail down the "natural" skills to be
used in any interaction with a woman a guy is interested in dating.
Again, the focus is on natural attraction.
Sounds like a killer plan, right? This is some of the best stuff
I've seen from anyone in a LONG time, so I'm going to let Stephen
speak for himself. Just click below to get the lowdown...even just
reading his new web page is well worth it:
http://www.marketerschoice.com/app/?Clk=2394432
BTW, Nash says he's only got several spots left, and this does
indeed involve live time with him so there really is a limit on how
many guys can participate in this.
