It can work, but that's just not me.
I don't make people feel like shit, but girls are still interested because I don't put up with their shit either. I tell them things straight out, and I'm always willing to cut them in a second.
This thought process I have though is mainly from knowing myself. While I control myself, if I knew I could get away with it - I would easily be willing to kill someone for simply fucking me over.
I don't mean this in a "i'm so tough Mr. Gangster way", I mean this more in a "I have violence issues which I'm working on".
My father raised me to be very aggressive, and I had to learn to tone it down.
So I know that if I can think like this, there are other people out there as crazy as I am, and I don't want to get on their bad side.
So maybe because of my personal experiences, I'm more careful to not mess with the wrong person. For all I know, I could be messing with someone like me who has less self-control than I learned to have.
