smash is a natural alpha

[Shannon]

I would have to say that on the one hand, to say that "all alphas are X" is about like saying "rainbows are only purple". The core trends and tendencies of alpha men are well covered here, but there is a lot of variance on different points from example to example.

Point B depends on personality and circumstances. Social alphas tend to have lots of friends, true, but for instance I have very few friends I can talk to in person because I spend so much time working. I have met alphas who are very selective about whom they befriend, also.

On point C, I would say that cockiness is relative and depends on the personality of the man in question. Some alphas I have met are very cocky, and some are rather understated. Cockiness isn't necessary, and in some cases, is actually misunderstood self confidence being perceived as cockiness because the people seeing it are wanting to tear the man down for outshining them.

Point D, is true unless he is in a circle of equals. When I get together with Andrew, for instance, we try not to step on each other's toes. It is natural for both of us to lead and take control, but we avoid that around one another to avoid conflict.

Point E - Have not met a "touchy" alpha in person yet. I am sure they exist, but this will depend on a lot of factors, and cannot be assumed.

I agree with Point G.

Point H is right, with the exception that an alpha doesn't always stop pursuit when he is rejected or refused. He understands that to persist is to succeed, whether it be concerning women, money, or most other things in life. At the same time, he is not rude about it, and does not pursue if the woman genuinely is upset by it. But I guarantee you that most of the alphas I know succeed with women based primarily on self confidence, active leadership of the situation towards the desired goal, and persistence. There are women who have declined my advances several times, but I keep trying, because I know they are interested, but have not yet seen enough evidence that I am genuinely interested. Some women equate persistence with genuine-ness of interest. So I persist, slowly but surely when I am around them, and I know that given enough time, they will agree to a date, sex, whatever it is I am trying to achieve. Other women need not persistence, but aggressive bluntness, and an alpha know when to use what, because he is perceptive and knowledgeable about how women communicate their feelings, desires and responses.
