You know that cliché story where the playboy eventually falls in love?
This is not it but it’s in the same ballpark.
This is where the guy who helps other guys get the girl of their dreams falls in love with the girl of his dreams. Not that he was searching though. It was just kismet.
Of course, the guy is well versed in female psychology and he has “some education he feels obliged to pass to all men.”
Was I listening? Def, I was watching this with rapt attention and taking notes.
Guile and Game. Check!
Confidence. Check!
A liitle wits and humour here and there. Get her interested. Check!
Megamind called it “Presentation”
The power of First impression. Chakam!
What makes a guy not seek love? It’s always the classic; Heartbreak-“breakfast”.
Heartbreak from a girl a guy really loved can unlock the innate beast inside that just believes women are not worth the time; use them, dump them. All it takes is one heartbreak and we write off women and genuine love. Toxic masculinity kicks in.
The cure? Same thing that broke you can also heal you but you have to be willing to find and be open to it again.
HITCH (2005)

This has been on my watch list for a loooong time. Sunday Ekeh sent it to me during the lockdown I think but there was no zeal for it then. I just felt gingered recently and I dug in. It has become a personal classic.
Great story. I absolutely loved it.
