I ran across this article. It is about a woman who learned how to meet men by having great coaches. Her story is that it is possible to learn how to relate to the opposite sex effectively. http://www.xojane.com/it-happened-to-me/it-happened-to-me-i-was-a-female-pick-up-artist http://www.ardenleigh.typepad.com/ From her article: " Fascinated by the idea that romantic attraction was something I might be able to control, I picked up a copy of Robert Greene’s "The Art of Seduction" (still to this day my favorite book ever written) and began scientifically applying its techniques to a crush I had at the time, a man I was certain was out of my league. He was a 6’6,” 22-year-old, world-traveled fashion photographer with unruly dark curls, a Byronic gaze, and a supermodel girlfriend who would later go on to do a campaign for Agent Provocateur, my favorite lingerie label. At the time I didn’t consider the ethics surrounding his being in a relationship because, frankly, I didn’t really believe what I was doing was going to work. Instead what happened was that one night at a gallery exhibit where he was showing photos, his girlfriend walked in and threw her purse at him for talking to me. I left a short while later, not wanting to actually cause conflict. Later that night, at 1:00 a.m., I got a text from him: “I kicked my gf to the curb tonight. Sucks but it had to happen.”
