If a woman doesn’t respect you, she will not be attracted to you.

That is not good if you are a single guy trying to get a woman or if you are a guy who is dating a woman and trying to keep her.

So, how do you get a woman to respect you? 

Human nature is very strange. People believe that if something comes at a low cost, it probably has little value,

while if things are more difficult to possess, they are automatic of better quality and more valuable.

This is where the expression, you get what you pay for, comes from.

In other words, people judge things based on what they must give up, rather than what they could earn.

Still not convinced? Ask yourself why certain groups such as the armed forces, sports teams, work teams, and even gangs require initiations before accepting members?

This is definitely not just for the pure fun of having them.

In fact, if you look deeper into the root of initiations, you will see that they serve a very important function.

Initiations are sometimes raw, cruel, grotesque, and demeaning. The purpose is to make it hard to obtain membership into the group.

Once the new candidate becomes a member, he will appreciate his membership with greater loyalty.

After all, he did have to pay a big price to become a member by going through the initiation process.

In the end, he will reason that if he spent a lot of effort in order to become a member, it must be because the group has high value and is well worth the trouble.

The same principle applies to the dating game. In general, a woman will always cherish a friendship, but she will always go crazy for that charming man for whom she had to work hard to get.

A man should never let himself be taken for granted.

This usually happens when a person is perceived as having a lower value.

In general, you should take the necessary steps and eliminate anyone who is not willing to pay the price required to deserve you, from your life.
For a woman to perceive your value, you have to make her put some work into hanging out with you, for her to value your presence.

You can do this by making her do favors for you, such as picking you up at home or paying for your dinner.

By doing favors for you, she will convince herself that it must be with good reason and that you must be a nice person, which explains why she cares for you.

Scarce products are perceived as more valuable (i.e. gold, diamonds, rare baseball cards).

People place more value on things that require more work and effort to achieve.

If you are "rare" or becoming more "scarce", people will view you as more valuable.

By not always being around your girlfriend, you will be perceived as scarce and hence, more valuable.

You can use the following suggestions in this book to increase your value
