I just got done reading a book by Robert Greene called 48 Laws of Power, they say it is an instinct classic. In one of the laws of the book he says that you should learn to disdain things you cannot have. If Chase's posts and the pieces of wisdom written by Hector and Varoon are any indicators, then I will say that understanding power dynamics has a lot of carry over on to gaming and seducing women. Here is the law itself:
Occasionally guys will run into the situation where they have a "type" but that "type" is not as interested in them because they are not her "type". At times it could be because of the way you just are, maybe she comes from a culture that genuinely dislikes certain races or hates the kind of look you have. We have a thread pinned on how to get hot girls of any type but even the advice given tells you to put in more effort like making friends with her type.
What about the idea of actively ignoring women you fit the description of the kinds of women you are attracted with and forcing yourself to dislike them?
You happen to like blonde bombshells, next time you go to a bar you ignore even approaching them, as a matter of fact you approach their ethnic friends or darker friends.
You like Latinas but you actively ignore them at every given chance, turn cold, and avoid talking to them while talking to all other kinds of women instead.
You like girls who fit the mold of a former sorority party girl type, you ignore this very girl if you ever work with her or if she runs into some of the circles you run in.
You almost train yourself to show contempt and dislike for women you were initially attracted to but for some reason, some out of your control, it just isn't happening.
Law 36: Disdain things you cannot have, Ignoring them is the best revenge
By acknowledging a petty problem you give it existence and credibility. The more attention you pay an enemy, the stronger you make him; and a small mistake is often made worse and more visible when you try to fix it. It is sometimes best to leave things alone. If there is something you want but cannot have, show contempt for it. The less interest you reveal, the more superior you seem.
