Never chase a woman, Here's What REALLY Works.

The video lays out a two-stage model -- a "hunting phase" where the man initiates and leads, followed by a "chasing phase" where she pursues him -- as the way to create what he calls emotional chasing and a lasting relationship.

Key points

  • Two types of chasing: logical (she pursues for money/status) and emotional (she pursues from feelings). He dismisses logical chasing as rare, tied to gold diggers, and unable to produce a real bond; emotional chasing is the "golden rule" for love.
  • Uses a cigarette analogy: a man gives small doses of attention, withdraws, returns -- until she becomes "addicted" and starts seeking and "paying." He frames the female currency in this exchange as sex, happening subconsciously, and says he views it through "human biology."
  • Hunting phase -- be the chooser/hunter, not the chaser:
  • Convert "follower questions" into "hunter statements": instead of "when are you free?" say "tell me when you're free this week, I want to take you to the best spot, meet me there at 7, wear something nice."
  • If she declines a date with an excuse, do not counter-propose another day; just say "no problem, another time."
  • After a date, go silent; initiate only once a week until she begins texting daily.
  • Dates: do not wait more than 10 minutes if she is late. He prefers being on time over deliberately arriving late ("women today are not as stupid"). Ask emotionally resonant questions, avoid boring ones like "what do you do for work," run a "kiss test" at peak emotion, and leave without promising a follow-up to keep mystery.
  • Chasing phase: once she texts/calls daily, stop being always available -- sometimes say yes, sometimes no. He stresses this distancing only works after she is attached; doing it too early loses her.
  • He rejects the "manipulative" label, claiming women want a challenge and a strong man, and that this benefits women too.

Reception

  • Strong engagement and broadly receptive, with many calling the advice practical and fundamental; some report real-world success (numbers, dates, a first kiss) after applying it.
  • A common theme: "chase butterflies, they fly away; build a garden, they come to you" -- focus on living purposefully and being outcome-detached.
  • Heavy demand for a "how to escape the friend zone" / pull-a-female-friend video, the single most-liked request.
  • Notable pushback: that women are "fickle" and genuine attraction needs no techniques; that "be yourself" is the real answer (countered by others saying flaws must be corrected).
  • A few women comment that they watch to avoid being "outsmarted," and a married viewer says it is the best channel of its kind.
