Shybuthi - let me tell you about Dave.
I knew Dave when I was a kid. My dad was a motor-mechanic, you see, and he used to do a lot of private jobs in order to make ends meet. One of his regular customers was Dave. Dave was a driving instructor, and often needed repairs on his vehicle.
I'll never forget the way Dave looked. He was short, pudgy, middle-aged and had a kind of beaky nose. He was also one of those bald guys who sported a stringy comb-over, as if that were fooling anyone. Dave was not wealthy; he had two children to support from a divorce, and as I said before - he was just a driving instructor, and needed my dad to do private repairs on his car because he probably couldn't afford a proper garage.
What I've told you about Dave is no exagerration. What is also no exagerration that Dave was a formidable babe-magnet who annoyed the fresia out of other guys, because they just could not see how he did it. My dad, and pretty much every other motor-mechanic, were kind of in awe of him. Because Dave dated a hell of a lot of **** fine looking women, and had quite a few **** fine looking girlfriends along the way, too.
Even to this day - I don't see Dave anymore, so don't know what became of him - I and my dad still wonder as to the secret of Dave's success with women. Perhaps he was the ultimate PUA...and yet, from what I can remember, he just didn't seem the type: none of that AMOG bullshit, just a softly spoken bloke who seemed almost sad a lot of the time. Perhaps he just had a lot of natural charisma. Perhaps he was just lucky, and was fortunate enough only to ever meet women who went for the small, fat, comb-over look. Or perhaps he just had that certain something that a lot of women like. Whatever it was, Dave had it, and if he could have bottled it and sold it, he would have been a billionaire.
The only insight I ever had to Dave's attractiveness was what I got from my Mum. 'He was just very nice to talk to,' she said. AFAIA, my mum and Dave did not have an affair. I hope not, anyway. Scary thoughts!
Do looks matter? Of course! But to what extent? Well, who knows. But remember Dave, and raise a toast to him; the guy who proved that you do not have to have everything - looks or wealth - in order to have that certain something.
And if Dave can have it, then why can't anyone else?
