Yes, neverendingupwardquest, it's not something that can be explained in a quick comment on here.

But I assure you, I am well familiar with the "nice guy" syndrome. And I also assure you that there is *nothing* more powerful or attractive than a man who is standing in his full Presence. A man in that state of being doesn't even need to say a word to seduce women. <

Thanks, I have no idea what that means, but I think I might disagree with you. I'm not sure as a girl you can have the same appreciation. They call it nice guy syndrome, not nice girl syndrome.

Thanks for your comment, neverendingupwardquest, and welcome to the blog.

I hear your concern about being perceived as a "doormat," and let me say this:

This is an interesting post. Maybe in the past month or so, since working with Brian Begin, I've realized that avoiding connection is a big part of my history. It's something now I'm starting to address.
