Self awareness is a gift. It also makes you grateful where you otherwise might not be.

Just my type. I'm like an old lion watching a herd of gazelle. The young tight muscular ones sure look delicious, but I'm f$%king tire and hungry. I'm eating the gimp bringing up the rear.

Can't define and Alpha. And being an aggressive douche isn't even close. Watch a room full of people over the course of an evening. After a while, it will be obvious who the alpha males and females are. Others will rotate around them or hand out at their periphery. And even when several alphas are present, one will always stand out. Not necessarily the biggest, loudest, best looking etc. It's just the "it" factor. Can't teach it, can't define it, can't become it. You either are or you are not. Sorry bitches.


Control is the operative term I always use. Self-control. Control of others (and ability to influence others). Control of your situation.

I think it also depends - at least a bit - on the situation you're in. Stick a Green Beret who is in the middle of his pecking order on his Team into a pack of school teachers or IT consultants, and he instantly becomes the alpha.

You're right, though - you know it when you see it.

Your self deprecating used to really irritate me. But it doesn't anymore. Maybe because I don't think you do it for attention or fishing for compliments

There are still other chicks here that do though

I'm not self deprecating. I'm just honest. It's off putting because people are lying sacks of shite.

I get the negative comment a lot. But there's a difference between negativity and realism. I don't kid myself or anyone else. I might naturally lean a little to the negative side, but for the most part I'm just very realistic.

Gotta quit self defecating and start defecating on others. Nice guys finish last. I think I'm a good guy deep down, but I will shite on someone's life if they frick with me.
