Call it obsession, love, or lust, when our objects of desire are in close proximity we fall into the awful habit of becoming a relentless hunter for clues, a romantic paranoiac, reading meaning into everything. Every slight touch, breath, sentence, smile or look, we wonder if, through those subliminal & unconscious actions; if they desire us too.

We fantasize about encounters yet to happen, they way their cheeks bunch up when they smile or laugh, what their kiss would be like for the first time. As Alain de Bottom explains, in his book "On Love" we become historians of their past. Shifting through the words they express & constructing theories on who they are, allowing ourselves to tie their every encounter, dreams, hopes & habits to the perfect person we've been searching for, the one.

Though, this entry isn't about how the opposite sex makes you feel when you think you have fallen into love's trap, but something more complicated. It's about the perfect characteristic one should have in perfecting the act of seduction.

"The most attractive are not those who allow us to kiss them at once (we soon feel ungrateful) or those who never allow us to kiss them (we soon forget them) but those who know how to carefully administer varied doses of hope & despair."

Reminise about the last person you had fallen for - hard. Do you remember the agony of deciphering all of the clues, which you fall prey to hope, only to be shot down by a word, sentence or look, filling your insides with utter despair and just as you've deflated all hope of happiness they entice you with their charm of making you feel wanted again.

Well romantics, I'm very sorry to shoot your bubble, but experts aren't blind to the intricasies of dating & have called the aforementioned paragraph as the push pull method. That's right! There's an underground seduction society of mainly composing of males that learn the tricks of the dating game. They learn to become more confident & they learn what to say in order to get a girl to look twice & consider them. Boys who are often scared of approaching ladies for the fear of rejection now have a better chance of getting laid.

Okay, so bias aside. Some males are really opting to boost self-esteem & confidence & these underground societies do their job & help them project their best self when approaching a highly attractive female. Although I can't help but wonder if it's all for show, a fabricated image of who they wish to be. Because as we know most of the male species think & wish about sex for the majority of their pre/adulthood life. Don't get me wrong, some males aren't looking to get laid with the tricks they've learned .. but if there's a way, then why not?

These tricks will be abused, to get what they want of course. A night of raunching hot sex with a complete stranger they probably never want to see again in their life. They will use sentences that you want to hear, words that'll manipulate & deceive you!

Males will approach females by highlighting their charm. They will then say something to devout the lady's self esteem. They will play games, making us wonder, do they like me or don't they? They'll give a little & take it away. Females (naive & stupid ones) will then get in bed with them to prove that they are attractive to boost their own self esteem. At the end of the day the male got what he want. Yes, he got laid.

Bastards right? But in all honesty, I'd never pick a guy from a bar or a club & say to myself "yep, that's the one." & the day that EVER happens, I'll swallow my words bury myself in wet cement & wonder what the hell is wrong with the world/ my brain.

So, would you call this devious trickery, or all about raising their game? Would you appreciate a male going to all that trouble just to meet you? Or would you think twice because he may be using the same lines with a million other girls who can't say no to his tricks?

As you've guessed, my name is Thea which is greek for goddess. I'm a seventeen year old, who currently attends Macquarie University studying B-Comm accounting.

I was born on the eighteenth day of April 1990, which makes me a firey Aries and born in the year of the Horse, who has a love for diamonds and romance.

I am an only child which explains the abnormal behaviour I promulgate. Throughout the years I've learned how to entertain myself without turning into a complete psychopath. Unfortunately, I dislike the spoilt brat cliche I'm often imposed with. I don't consider myself a snob, who is obsessed with materialistic highs. Although I admit I can be a brat .. sometimes, especially when you push the wrong buttons.

I'd assume if you met me, you'd think I'm very much angelic, quiet & bubbly. Only the last would probably be true. I'd say I have split personalities, not only split but multiple! One day I could be tearing your head off, the next I'd be showering you with hugs & kisses. But one thing is certain, whatever my mood, I'll express it with my face & actions. I'm often told that I have mature thoughts, & that only applies sometimes as I'm a kid at heart.

My hair is naturally brown, so please don't annoy me by asking what colour dye I use. My father being spanish explains why an Asian like me doesn't have charcoal black hair. I was born and raised for four years in the Philippines until my family migrated to Australia.

Being asian has its quirks, such as having the ability to outrun anything, having a super fast metabolism, believing in the supernatural and being tiny enough to fit into small crevices. Or maybe the last aberration only applies to me, I'm what you would call 'petite.'

I follow the Catholic religion, so you'd probably see me attending church every Sunday morning or night and reading the bible for inspirational quotes on how to live my life. But this doesn't mean I'm perfect, I do of course have flaws.

You'll see me prowling around the area with mainly boys. Boys are genuine & don't usually obsess about useless gossips. I enjoy being one of the boys. Playing sports, being immature and immersing myself in obscure activities, which in most cases are illegal, absolutely hilarious and extremely fun!

Yes, I'm an athletic type. I'll be up for anything! Throughout my years, the sports that I have competed in have been Basketball, Indoor Soccer & Swimming.

Not only do I enjoy playing, but I love watching sports. What girl can resist hot, sweaty boys? With their big muscular arms and athletic body. Rugby does it for me! & those basketball & soccer players - oh damn.

I'm currently content with being single. I'm not looking for anything temporary, & I'm not really keen in looking or testing out the waters. But you know what they say, you think you know what you want .. but you really haven't a clue. If you're really something amazing, you may sweep me off my feet without me or you even knowing.

I have issues with technology, as I believe they killed any prospects of romance. Then again it could just be the boys of my generation that don't seem to have the romantic gene. Old fashioned dates is something I want revived!

Reading beautiful prose is what I live for. I'm what you would call a book nerd and I'm a sucker for Romance novels. Although a hearty laugh is what I love. Books allow me to escape into a realm on contentment, which my life usually lacks.

Throughout my life, I've met a few bad eggs, so don't hate if I have trust issues. I also have a habit of twisting your words to suit my frame of mind. It takes someone special to beat me at my mind games. My advise, give up & let me win, you'll do me & yourself a favour.

Feel privilaged if I call you a friend. This does not include if you are someone on my MSN list or if I have accepted you on myspace. But once you're in my little network of 'true friends' you'll be showered with love & appreciation. You'll also get an earful of how great I am & how lucky you are to have someone sexy like me in your life!

I'm going to end with the best thing to do in the world! & that is eating. It's my favourite thing to do! Food is the most beautiful thing on this whole entire planet. It never disappoints! More likely than not you'll find me chewing, if not, i'll have a bag of treats secretly stashed.
