#5 - Control your messages and focus on higher goals

This post is for your self betterment. Let me put this into perspective for you.

As a man just imagine every day you get this message

'Yaar, tum bohat achay lag rahay ho'.

Then every night a girl messages you

Kya hum aaj raat mil saktay hain?

And every time you go out a girl says to you

Aao main tumharay liye khana kharidata hoon kyunki tum bohat achay ho

How are you going to feel? You're gonna feel like you're ontop of the world. You're gonna feel special right? You're gonna feel like Mr Samnabad or Mr Allama Iqbal town.

Now reverse the roles, this is what the average/good looking Pakistani girl will receive on a daily basis. Her attitude/ego and perception will be shaped by men constantly praising her and talking to her in this way. Is it something blameworthy? Absolutely not. If you received messages like these you wouldn't say no to them.

Therefore the first step is to move away from this, stop messaging random girls on insta or bombarding girls with texts. Work on yourself and focus on those higher goals whether that be business, religion or education.

#6 will be the next post and will focus on business ideas

#4 - First Date/Meetup Tips for Men with wealth

Make sure you're meeting for marriage purposes!

Before the meeting

- Brush your teeth, floss and use a tongue scraper

- shower (obviously)

- wear plain colours, smart clothing. Leave the chequered shirts; they don't suit Pakistani men whatsoever.

- arrange a meeting in a standard restaurant or coffee shop. Don't go above and beyond to go to a more pricey/posh restaurant. A girl who is interested in you won't mind what venue you're going to.

During the meeting

- sit back, don't lurch forward. Don't start popping your eyes out like a monkey and speak from the chest in a confident deep natural tone. CONFIDENCE IS KING

- never reveal your wealth. Don't brag about yourself and stop talking about yourself too much.

- Dr. Arthur Aron’s famous 36 questions that lead to love; plenty to talk about :)

- try to let the conversation flow naturally.

- keep the meeting between an hour and one and half hours

Tricks of the trade

- end the meeting when she's really into what you're saying. Leave the meeting on a high

- do something like dropping the fork, spilling a bit of tea on the table. Then act like nothing happened. It's about showing confidence. If you act normal when something embarrassing has happened she'll definitely be impressed.

- when looking at a woman, use the triangle method. Left eye, right eye and then lips.

Keep it all halal and you're all good.

#3 - The realities of obsession with aunties and older women

For the young Pakistani men out there who post about wanting an older lady, aunty, DHA aunty and the sort please read this carefully. The reality of what you desire is not what you envisage.

- Pakistani aunties do not have the wealth that you envisage. The majority of single or widowed older women in Pakistan with wealth is minimal. The majority of single 'aunties' are from poorer backgrounds; with their poorer husbands dying of various conditions; primarily related to their lack of wealth to treat them.

- Older richer single 'aunties' do exist, but only in countries such as the UK and the USA. They will certainly provide for you, but how much of your religion will you sacrifice to get there? Nothing is worth giving up your virginity or your religion for a few momentary acts of pleasure.

- Marrying a women the same age or younger than you is far better for you. Firstly it's easier to find someone a similar age or younger than you through halal means; rishta aunty, family, school even. Marrying or being with an 'aunty' will also be known about within your community in Pakistan.

- A younger women will bring up a family with you, be more in sync with you when it comes to romance (use your imagination on this one 😄). Do you want a women that hobbles about with a walking stick every time you get out of bed? Pakistani women are not healthy at all when they get to middle age.

- In the rare case that you do end up finding this 'DHA aunty', they certainly wouldn't go near you with your level of wealth. Why would they? The class system in Pakistan matters a lot; more so than what we have in the UK or USA.

For most of you, its a fascination and 99.9% of you will get nowhere near an 'aunty'.

Focus on not trying to circumvent the money route and actually try to better yourselves. Learn a new skill, become an expert at it, put your trust in Allah and because you didn't try to cheat the marriage/wealth system you'll find yourself a girl that will resemble in what you're looking for.

Those that end up chasing this 'rich aunty' end up getting old and never finding a wife that's suitable for them.

Dave Beasant

The first man to save a penalty in an FA cup final.

Part of the Wimbledon 'Crazy Gang'

What's even more insane as the first choice Wimbledon keeper is how many promotions and relegations he was part of.

1979-80 - Wimbledon; Third Division

1980-81 - Wimbledon; Fourth Division

1981-82 - Wimbledon; Third Division

1982-83 - Wimbledon; Fourth Division

1983-84 - Wimbledon; Third Division

1984-85 - Wimbledon; Second Division

1985-86 - Wimbledon; Second Division

1986-87 - Wimbledon; First Division (pre-premier league)

1987-88 - Wimbledon; First Division (pre-premier league) & FA cup winner.

This man scored one of the great goals in premier league history.

Mystery as to how he didn't get in the Italy squad at the time.

Some advice to men in their 20s, 30 and even 40s

Texting girls

Rules of the game

- Always mirror and match the texting frequency. If she replies in an hour, you reply in an hour. If she takes a day, you take a day

- Do not try to show off as Elite or any of that gobbledegook. Keep the conversation about her and keep it light-hearted. Keep it natural

- You must portray yourself as not really caring, but caring a tiny bit. Do not ever double text and keep yourself busy in your spare time. If she doesn't like you then gracefully move on.

- don't get emotional or soppy.

- texting is only a means to organise a meetup. Don't text too much.

Pakistani girls are exactly the same as their English, Scottish, American counterparts. A girl who really is into you will look past your lack of wealth.

For those that are wealthy it is even more important that you don't reveal how wealthy you are.

Don't blame girls for being picky. It's only your behaviour that enables their attitude. Don't give them constant validation, Instagram following etc....
