Chasing Women

Hi, I am Marcus de la Houssaye




Although, I have been very interested in women, I can honestly say I never participated in the pursuit of women based upon my observations of what most men do in this regard. And I confess: in high school, I thought there was something wrong with me, because I was not like most of the other guys.





One of the great revelations of the last few years for me was to realize women are much smarter than men, and that they understand us better than we understand them.




And women are smart enough to allow us to think we are smarter than them, but that is part of the control mechanism. In many ways women and men are very different.

But one thing we have in common: we think the opposite sex, thinks the way we do, and then try to relate on that level with disastrous results!







I have to admit, I am not sure where to start on this subject.

So let me begin here: I don't have to chase women. Why might you ask?

Well guys first let's consider this: when you chase women they run the other way.

Especially the good ones. And I don't blame them.

OK, chasing women is fun, I'll admit to that, but here is the problem: she is in control, not you. Now perhaps you might think that being controlled by women has very rewarding fringe benefits, and that may be partly true, but will it last?

Once you are pussy whipped, and she has you where she wants you,
guess what: she don't want you anymore.

A few years ago, I took my daughter out to an arts market in Lafayette called Art Walk.

On the second Saturday of each month we have a social gathering in Downtown Lafayette from 6-8PM and the purpose is purely to socialize and allow the public to view and shop for art.

Well, Christina and I walk into The Jefferson Street Market, and begin to deal with the crowd, and the place is really packed. The design of JSM is a flea market of sorts, but for the most part I was interested in an exhibit in the rear, so I proceeded to walk past booth after booth, and work my way through the throng of customers and artists, with Christina taking up the rear.

As I walked through all these amazing women I was focused upon my destination, and frankly, I did not look stop or look at any one person. As I walked, I looked right through them.

Once we reached the gallery, I began to view my friends photos. Christina came up behind me, grabbed my arm and turned me towards her, and asked: "Daddy, are you aware how attractive you are to women?" And I replied: "Yes, I am."

Now let's examine this: I am walking through beautiful, sexy, eclectic, and highly attractive women. And I ignore them. What is the result? All eyes are on me as I pass through their midst. None of them are going to look at me that way in my face, but behind my back, my daughter could see something that astounded her 14 year old brain.

What would most guys do in that situation? They would look at(and fantasize about) every women they could get their eyes on. And of course those guys need to be reminded from time to time, to put their tongue back in their mouth!-)

And what made me so attractive? I was not like most guys!

For me it is far better to attract women, than to chase them, but I guess that is just me.

Men Do Not Listen



Hi,

I am Marcus de la Houssaye, and I own and operate de la Houssaye's Louisiana Swamp Tours near Lafayette, Louisiana.




Being in an international swamp tour business at Lake Martin, I have had the good fortune of meeting men and women from all over the world.


I chose the title to this post because that is what I have heard from women again and again.





Now, is that wrong for us to be that way? Maybe not, if that is how we are wired genetically, but none the less, it drives women crazy!



I learned this first from interviewing women, and I heard it again and again, after asking them why don't you tell that to the men? And the reply was almost universal: "Because they don't listen!"



Now armed with this "concept" I went out and tested my men friends. And the result was: men aren't listening to me either!

So women...if you think men aren't listening because you are "just" a woman, don't take it personal, they don't listen to men or women!

Maybe we are in our nothing box, where we escape from the world periodically, or whatever, but it appears that's just how we are, so don't try to "fix" us. We are not broken. To better understand the "nothing box" and get a good laugh, refer to the Youtube video at the end of this post.




Now, time and again I have heard men claim that "they" were the ones holding the relationship together, and then when it falls apart, they want to blame the woman for the breakup or problem in the end.

Come on guys, if you had it together to start with, she would still be there.




I will most likely edit a few more cartoons here later, but for now, I need to go climb a tree! Seriously, here is the view from my nothing box this time of year...

In about one hour, I will be in a tree stand 30' off the ground.
