Post subject:  Can you oversell yourself?

I have recently come to feel that I may be overselling myself to women. I'm wondering if there are any guys out there in the same boat.

Regardless of which school of thought you side with, The Game is very good and it works. It awesome because you gain the abilities, skills and lifestyle to attract beautiful woman. You can take them on a journey and have them think, (true or not), that you are someone special, different and pretty downright amazing. I think we all agree, that it's the primary reason why we learn this stuff, so we have the ability to build that positive perception in a woman's mind.

Now here's where overselling comes into things. If we are a community of men, (sorry ladies) that pride ourselves on projecting an alpha, outing, socially apt bravado, then what happens when women feel they can't live up to the hype? They feel intimidated right. It's like if we sell ourselves well enough the girls get that, "warm feeling", excitement, because she's talking to this, "high value" guy. But if you oversell yourself, which I believe is a fine line, it can make them feel intimidated and not good enough. The best example I can think of is that they feel like they're talking to a celebrity they could never get with.

Okay, so before you think, I'm saying, I'm a celebrity, hear me out. Solid game is selling the whole package to women. We do this, in part, by projecting an ideal lifestyle they would want to be apart of. So how do we make them feel worthy enough to participate?

I have read some of TD FR where he talks a little about grounding, and I know mystery does as well. Is grounding just about being vulnerable? Or putting yourself down in some way so she feels like her life is good enough to be apart of yours?

This has become abit of a sticking point for me, especially in the comfort stages. For the sake of this post let's assume I've calibrated perfectly, in doing so I feel her attraction for me is high, I've sold myself well (too well), and now I want her to come on board, though I feel hesitation due to being too high value.

I want to try this:
Over-sell myself,and then over-value her.
Like after subcommunicating that im the shit,i will start observing her qualities and over-appreciate them.
Something like:
"I am good I am the shit"
and then:
OMG!you have amazing nails!I LOVE YOU.
