The hilariously wrong advice of one Doc Love  

Sup, Nerds.

I just read probably the funniest “advice” article that I’ve ever encountered. It’s by a man who calls himself “Doc Love” and has a $99 book called “The System” that is supposed to teach guys how to get women to fall in love with them. Let me just say, if his book is anything like the short article of his that I just read, it is an overpriced piece of shit. You’d have better luck taking that $99 and paying a girl to date you than you would with his “system.” (Yeah, don’t actually do that…I’m just sayin…)

This guy is equal amounts of ridiculous and ignorant and unfortunately, the first thing that popped up under Google when I typed in “how long should I wait to call her.” I WAS going to do a post on the awkward time between getting a girl’s number and calling her, but instead I’m going to rant about idiot advice that you should not be listening to if you want to get within 100 miles of a good relationship.

Oh, and before I get into this, Nik, are you fucking serious? You got in a fight with your mom about leaving the toilet seat up and so you launch an in depth questioning session about toilet seats on a dating blog? Really? Because that doesn’t scream super nerd or anything. Alright, I’ll play along but only because I’m really bored right now…it’s not the “cold porcelain,” it’s the fact that the bowl’s circumference is quite a bit larger than the seat, and I don’t feel like falling in the fucking toilet when I stumble in the bathroom in the middle of the night. So just put the fucking seat down. It takes 2 seconds (or .04 seconds by your standard which is probably pretty accurate seeing as I’m a good 90% sure you timed yourself doing it for the sake of this question). Sorry if that inconveniences you but guys put the seat down after they pee. That’s just how the world works. Please keep reading because you probably need to find a good woman if this is what you’re currently spending your time and thoughts on, yo.

Anyways, onto the most redic dating advice I’ve ever heard. You ready for this?

Alright, so Doc Love. I’m almost tempted to buy his book because everything that I’ve read of his is just so absolutely and hilariously wrong that I seriously can’t even imagine what an entire book of his would look like.

Alright, so the two articles of his that I’ve read have both been responses to men saying  uh, yeah, you’re advice isn’t really working.  I’m going to call your attention to the first one that I found while trying to do a little research on what people say the accurate time is to call a girl after getting her number. Wanna know what he says? ONE FULL WEEK. Hahaha, yeah, wait a week and call. And listen to yourself get dumped before the first date, which, *surprise!* keeps happening to the guy who wrote in his question to Doc Love. (Here’s the link)

Have I mentioned that I’m not a relationship expert? Well, I’m not. BUT, I at least have common sense, a true sense of what women want, and no intent to screw any of my nerds over. Doc Love, well, he’s just giving guys what they want to hear and taking their money in return. Oh, the girl didn’t seem pleased that you waited a full week to call her after giving you her number? Well that’s because she’s uptight and crazy! Hahaha, or she has a brain. I don’t care how cute/nice/fun/sweet a guy is. If he waits a full week between asking for my number and actually calling me, I take that as a major red flag for:

-This guy is a douche bag.

-This guy isn’t interested.

-This guy has no consideration for my time or feelings.

-This guy is a player who can’t find a girl to sleep with tonight and found my number in his coat pocket.

-This guy sucks.

And then, as a smart, strong woman, I don’t fucking fall into his arms the moment he decides to grace me with a call. In fact, I probably wouldn’t answer, or call him back. But then again, I’m a girl that hates games. If you play a game, the only girl you’re going to “get” is one who also likes to play games or one who doesn’t have a lot of self respect/worth.

So yeah, guys, take a look at Doc Love. Let me know what you think of him. Is this honestly advice that you listen to? Because then I may have found a key problem in why men and women can’t communicate very well. We’re getting totally wrong, horrible advice on how to handle each other. If this is the current type of advice you’re listening to…stop. Just stop. I mean, do you really want to take DATING advice from this guy??????

                                                          ...Yeah, didn't think so. 

 

Hugs,

Slugs.

"First of all, she has to have a high level of romantic interest in you (70% or greater) from the get-go."

Not gonna lie...the "70% or greater" made me lol. I was like...mmmk. Are you supposed to ask the girl at the end of the date, "Hey umm just wondering what percentage your romantic interest is in me? I just need to know whether I should to wait a week to call you." HAHA! I admit it's been a long time since I've been in the dating field but if you have a great time I don't see the problem in calling the day after. If I was really interested I'd want to hear from the guy a lot sooner than an entire week after the date.

"A girl who is uptight, structured and insecure may come up with a whopper..." Omg, this guy rubs me wrong in all kinds of ways. Sad that he's giving advice to men. This guy's "strategies" are a joke.

P.S. Your response to the toilet thing made me laugh. Too funny. :)

Very funny. Could you do a similar one for the "wrong advice" girl guides out there?

Even though I don't agree with most of this guys reasoning (or all of it for that matter), I still have to disagree with you on the toilet seat issue. You're saying we're supposed to 1. Pull the toilet seat up, and 2. Put it back down, so you don't have to do anything when you get to the toilet? Excuse me, but if women demand we put the seat back down when we're done then you should all take it back up when you're done. Equal rights and all that jazz.

Anywhoozle, keep up the good work.

P.S.: You should consider yourself lucky we pull the seat up at all while we pee.

If I have to put it up then you can put it down,it only takes 2 seconds.You pee in the dark a lot ?

Doc Love's advice is made so you don't ever get rejected.... which is a part of life and can make you either bitter or stronger. Just the right amount of rejection can make you a better person... stronger. The wrong amount can make you bitter and unable to function in a healthy relationship.

Don't take Doc Love's advice... it's better to take your time and slowly find the one you want. Finding love is like learning to play an instrument. Practice makes perfect and you'll occasionally hit a wrong tune. But when you get it right... it's beautiful :)

Later people

I cant believe you could be so ignorant as to comment on a book you have not read. OK, so I suggest you read the book, cause I have and I have drastically improved closing the deal time after time by using his advice. There is a lot of work and research the guy put into this that I can tell you unequivocally is more right than anything that would ever spew out of your lips. I shared this book with one of my "player" friends and he has drastically improved his game as well. Don't judge a book by its cover. Some people cant be helped, you must be one of them.

First read the book, have an open mind and think about what is written in the book.
it's not to save men from rejection, rather to have him saved from his own actions done so in pursuit of love which end up hurting him.
when i look back at life i can really see that his logic makes sense.
