What do women want? This is a question that has baffled men since the beginning of time and men are no closer to understanding women than we were when we huddled around an open fire every night and lived in caves. Why are women so hard to decipher? Simply because we try to understand them from a man's point of view without understanding the basic premise that women think differently from men. In fact, women have completely different wiring from that of men and men will never be able to understand them on a logical level, which is how men approach almost everything. Think about it. What do we do when we get together for some fun? We definitely aren't sharing feelings. No, we drink, talk about sports and other apparently innocuous subjects which in fact are a hidden form of competition. You know, the mine's bigger than yours syndrome. However, for guys this is absolutely natural. On the other hand, when women get together they share their feelings; they watch chick flicks and talk about the latest diet or article in town. You see, women are mainly driven by emotion. Just as we need logic and structure in our lives, they need emotion. Men thrive on competition, adrenaline, power, domination, while women couldn't really care less about them. The idea is that if you really want to be able to date any girl, no matter how attractive she is, you need to know what drives her, what her underlying motives are. Now, don't take this the wrong way because many women have no conscious idea of what drives them or what their motives are; it's just the way nature has wired them. However, just as you need to know what drives her, you need to stop worrying about it making sense. It is never going to make sense to us because we see things differently. But, if you know what her buttons are then you will be able to play sweet music that she won't be able to resist. Remember knowledge is power and you like power, don't you? Well, learn what drives women and then you will have it in spades.
