Hi, I’m Coach A-Man, and today I would be breaking down this newsletter called “I’m All Rounded But Can’t Get Girls? What Am I Doing Wrong?”

Quick Summary

It’s frustrating when you feel like you’ve maxed out everything that you can do in your professional and creative life, but still the dating scene isn’t reflecting your efforts. You’re not getting what you want, which is dating and having intimate and romantic relationships with women or a woman. This guy we have on this newsletter is 25, an accomplished aerospace engineer, talented musician, excels at sports, and has friends who say that they find him attractive. On paper, he sounds like an incredibly high-value man and what women “dreams” of. So why are women seemingly disinterested, ignoring texts, or replying late to him? This is a classic scenario that happens to high-achieving men, and it’s something I often break down for a good reason. It’s not about what you have, but how you present it and how you make women feel. Remember that women falls in love with what they hear, and men falls in love with what they see.

So let’s go through his message.

I’m All Rounded But Can’t Get Girls? What Am I Doing Wrong?

I am 25, Asian, doing well in life-good job, play sports really well, makes music, play the piano and guitar, and friends say I’m attractive [even male friends] . Engineer at a top firm with a master’s in aerospace-my friend’s girlfriend even complimented me when we first met.

But women seem disinterested, ignore texts, or reply late. Meanwhile, guys with less going on seem to date easily. What am I doing wrong?

On-Paper Perfect, But Still Getting Ignored? Here’s Why.

I am 25, Asian, doing well in life-good job, play sports really well, makes music, play the piano and guitar, and friends say I’m attractive [even male friends] . Engineer at a top firm with a master’s in aerospace-my friend’s girlfriend even complimented me when we first met.

You’ve built an impressive life, and that’s fantastic. You’ve reached the renaissance skill sets pretty much. You’re intellectually curious because you have a lot of skills, you’re artistic and creative because you play instruments, you’re scientific and mathematically capable because you’re an engineer, you’re physically fit I’m assuming because you play sports, and you claim that you are attractive. However, you forgot that women are not men and they are not impressed with the same things that us men are impressed by. Women aren’t logical creatures when it comes to attraction; they’re emotional. Men and women are different. Your resume, although on-paper very impressive, rarely sparks deep romantic interest with women on its own. I always say that, “Women are attracted to strength”. This isn’t just physical strength or intellectual/logical wise, but rather emotional, mental, and spiritual strength.

Since i don’t know any more specific information, here’s a list on where the disconnect usually happens:

You’re Not Making Her Feel Enough Attraction

You’re showcasing your value to the women, which is good, because it is an attractive thing for a man to be a capable man. But ask yourself and look at the results that are happening when you approach them. Are you actively creating an emotional experience for her or are you just communicating with her just to “talk”? Are you making it clear that you want her and that you are interested in her when you talk to her? Is there tension when you talk to them? Are you escalating or positioning yourself as their possible option for an intimate and romantic partner? Remember that attraction isn’t an intellectual thing, it’s a visceral thing. It’s about how you make her feel in the moment, your confidence, your playfulness, and your ability to lead. It’s how you make her feel towards you that matters. Are you making her “feel” that you want to date her? Ask these questions.

You’re Pursuing Too Much (or Wrongly)

But women seem disinterested, ignore texts, or reply late. Meanwhile, guys with less going on seem to date easily.

You have mentioned that women ignore texts or reply late to you. This is a huge red flag. It’s usually a sign that you’re either contacting/messaging them too much and too soon to the point that they feel smothered, or maybe the woman you are messaging has low interest towards you. Watching how women act rather than what they say is the key to understanding them. Since like you said they haven’t been messaging you back, then it’s either you’ve messaged too much or their interest towards is low to start with. I always say that “Masculine energy leads, feminine energy welcomes”. If you’re constantly leading, by constantly initiating and pursuing her, without her reciprocating and meeting you halfway, then she has no space to lean in, invest, feel, and welcome you in so they can feel that natural pull to chase you.

You Might Be Stuck in “Nice Guy” Behavior

This is a common trap for accomplished men. Since you’re used to achieving by being agreeable and working hard, you assume that the dating world and with women is like this too. But in dating, being too nice, too available, and too eager for her approval and attention suffocates her attraction towards you. It ruins the polarity because you’re acting like a “nice guy” rather than the “romantic intimate guy”. Women are drawn to a man who knows his worth and isn’t afraid to walk away if his standards aren’t met. Men should be drawn to women who have a high attraction level towards him anyways, or working his way to escalate it. And like I said, if there is no attraction and no way to escalate it, then he moves on and doesn’t spend any more time with people who don’t reciprocate the same energy. You’re not there to be her friend or her therapist. You want her to be straightforward and direct. Show you intention, don’t take the “be her friend first” route because you’ll only ruin your chances. You’re there to be her potential lover and leader. Read my newsletter called “I Have No Idea How To Get A Girlfriend” and “What Are The Biggest Mistakes Men Make That Push Her Away?” for a more detailed breakdown.

You’re Lacking Polarity

You sound like a well-rounded, capable guy. But is your masculine core truly present and unapologetic? Are you leading the dates, making decisive plans, setting the direction, and making it fun for her? Or are you deferring to her too much, seeking her approval, or waiting for her to initiate? How is the connection and the attraction? Are you escalating the attraction level and maintaining it or is it bland? Are you letting her speak 80% of the time and with you talking 20% of the time? Attraction and that relationship dynamic thrives on the polarity between masculine and feminine energy. The more feminine she feels and the more she’s open to express herself with you, then the more polarity the relationship will have. If you’re too soft and mellow with her, too agreeable, or too much in your head, then you’ll ruin the chances of getting her into an intimate and romantic relationship.

You’re Not “Dating” Her Properly

Once you get her number, are you following the script that I teach at The Art of Dating? The script is as follows. Initiate one quality date weekly. Lead the experience, focus on the fun and connection, then create space for her to reciprocate by waiting for her next contact. This script builds the anticipation, allows her to wonder about you which is what you want to do, and forces her to invest in you and the possibility of an intimate romantic relationship with you. You want her to wonder about you. It is a scientifically proven fact that women are more attracted whose feelings are unclear. Women want to chase the man they want. If you’re texting constantly between dates, or asking “what do you want to do?” or constantly messaging to “force” a response out of her, then what you’re doing is ruining the relationship dynamics and the attraction, and you’re not building her desire that she needs to fall in love with you.

The Art of Dating

If you’re reading this, chances are you’ve felt that frustration. That confusion when it comes to women. Maybe you struggle with confidence, or you just don’t know where to start when it comes to dating. I get it. I’ve been there, done that, and I know countless other guys who have too.

That’s exactly why I’ve poured everything I’ve learned into my new short eBook, “The Art of Dating.”. This isn’t just theory. It’s a step-by-step blueprint designed to cut through all the knowledge and give you the real, actionable strategies you need.

In about a month, I’m releasing it completely free because I believe every man deserves to find the connection he craves. Whether that’s casual dating, building a harem of women, or finding that woman you want to be with forever.

What You’re Doing Wrong And How to Fix It

The good news is, these aren’t character flaws because they’re behavioral patterns,and that can be corrected. You’re a man who has a clear mind and can make decisions clearly. The only thing you’re lacking is knowledge.Here are what you’re doing wrong and how to fix them:

You’re Not Making Her Feel Enough Attraction

Stop trying to impress women with your resume. With women, it will only get 10 seconds of their attention, then it’s going to go back to how you make them feel. That’s the reality. Focus on being fun, confident, and playful. Make her feel wanted and desired, go back and forth with her. Let her talk and let her open up to you. Let her do 80% of the talking and you 20% of the time but just asking her to tell you more or generating more things that will make her more engaged. Tease her, make her laugh, share your authentic self and stories. The goal is to make her laugh, smile, and feel good when she’s with you. Women will fall in love with how you make them feel, rather than flexing on them about what you’ve achieved.

You’re Chasing Too Hard: STOP OVER-PURSUING

If she’s ignoring texts or replying late, match and mirror her effort. Women communicate with their actions. If they are interested in you, they will find a way to contact you. If they’re interest in you is very high, even if you have no way to contact them, they will try and find a way to get to you. Remember that. They expect men to understand it but most men don’t understand this. If she takes a day to reply, you take a day to reply. If she doesn’t initiate, then you don’t chase. Give her space to wonder about you, and to feel the desire to reach out. The idea is that relationships are like tennis. When you approach her and message her, what you’ve done is hit the ball towards her court, now you have to wait for her to hit it back. Relationships take two to tango.

You’re Not Leading

Be the man with a plan. When you ask a woman out, have a specific date, time, and activity in mind. Don’t ask random questions like, “What do you want to do?” or “When are you free?”. It’s not direct, clear, and manly. Say, “Let’s grab a drink at [Place X] on [Day] at [Time].” Be decisive. Women want to join you. Your job as the man to set up a life, an activity, and a date that you would love to do but you want her to join you so you invite her. Lead the relationship and take it where you want it to go. Do 2 steps forward and 1 step back. If you’re feeling resistance, then just slow down a little bit. If her attraction to you is very low and she is showing you this by not replying, then don’t take it personally and just move on.

You’re Not Creating Mystery and Anticipation

Don’t reveal everything about yourself on the first date or in endless texts. Keep some intrigue. Let her wonder about you. This ties back to letting her invest in you and chase you. The idea is that if she is interested in you, then she’ll find a way to get to you. If she likes you and wants to know something about you, then she’ll ask about it. If she wants to message you, then she’ll message you. The idea is to be a little mystery and for her to “dig” in and discover more.

You’re Not Letting Her Earn Your Attention

Your time, your attention, and your affection are valuable. A high-value man is focused on his life. You’ve done that in your professional and creative life. The idea is that yourself and your purpose is the priority, so you have to make her qualify for it. Does she treat you with respect? Does she reciprocate your effort? If not, move on. You deserve someone who is attracted to you and makes time for you. You want someone who gives energy and time to you. Let women qualify for you and know if they are worth your time.

The Bottom Line

Your accomplishments are impressive, and they form a solid foundation for a great life and character. But attraction isn’t built on a LinkedIn profile and your “resume”. It’s built on confident masculine energy, emotional intelligence, purposeful living, and disciplined communication. You have to understand how women think, the relationship dynamics, and how to correlate the two. The dating world is another skill that you need to learn. Just like a degree or a craft, the dating game is just like it. You have to learn it, get better at it. study it, and practice to become better at it. Start applying these fundamentals that I always teach: lead, be direct, be playful, and create space for her to pursue you. When you truly embody these principles, you’ll find that the women you desire will stop being disinterested and start showing you the enthusiasm and effort you deserve.
