To determine a man's quality, look only at the things money can't buy him:
- Respect of friends and acquaintances.
- A woman's absolute devotion. Whether he can command it or not.
- Reputation among his peers.
- Babies and animals respond to him pleasantly.
- How servers and hospitality workers respond to him (these people are pros at sniffing out weird characters due to the nature of their jobs).
- Good taste (I can't stress this enough). If a man has bad taste and no sense for aesthetics that is the #1 sign 🛑. Always test a man for his taste.
- Willingness to fight, stand his ground even when afraid.
Put every man you meet through this filter and, I promise you, you will see that 95% won't pass.
The 5% that do deserve your loyalty or friendship.
