Not real great. I've always taken the advice to "just treat women like people," and have had a lot of great friendships with women as a result. Then, for a few months some years ago, I decided to follow the "just be confident" advice, and forced myself to behave in ways that felt to me very transgressive and boundary-breaking. It worked stunningly well, but I just can't keep it up. That's not my personality, or my romantic style. I need some indication that a woman is interested in me, and pushing past her initial resistance makes me feel queasy. But, I'm not attractive enough to get those kinds of signals often, so, the single life it is.
