Flirtation, Seduction, & Innuendo: Only a Fool's Errand


The only way to get anyone do anything is to first make them want to do it.  Love a person and you sow in them the inspiration to treat you in kind.  That’s the power behind the golden rule.  But what if you’re the type of person who does not have any love to give?  How do you motivate others then? Well then, flirtation, seduction, and innuendo become your persuasion of choice.
  The charm in these activities resides only in the goods they seem to offer up, but such promises are never intended to be kept.  This is the carrot on the stick that persuades it’s victim to move.   Give a horse the carrot and He stops moving. 
The Bible tells us to beware of the woman who is a snare.  She dolls herself up and flirts with her victims.  Her charms tease a man and motivate him to follow her.  She has no intention of really gratifying her victim, that would require her to be loving and this does not really serve her personal interests.  She has errands for him to do; ones from which only she benefits.  She needs him to stay hungry and eager to do her bidding.   So only a morsel is offered to lure him into her cage.  This is how men become enslaved.  The mission always proves fruitless for the victim, it’s a fool’s errand.   So don’t take the bait so easily.    All strip dancers, porn stars, and prostitutes employ this strategy.  To them, you are only a means to an end- a mere meal ticket and nothing more.  In pursuing them, a fool and his money become easily parted.  Similar things could be said of a Casanova, who casts out his lure of affection only to reel it in again for unsuspecting girls.  Taking the bait, she’s hooked by his seduction and caught in his net only to be laid bare as he sees fit.  Is it fun to be teased with something you desire and then never obtain it?  If you don’t like such games, then don’t play them. Have the wisdom to show some restraint.  Do not indulge in these forms of persuasion.  Playing with other people's heartstrings can be a dangerous business indeed.  I will talk about this more in a later post.  In short, don’t be too eager to chase the opposite sex even when feeling tempted to do so.  Restraint keeps a person from succumbing to such traps.  Real love always means what it says and follows through with what it promises.  Loving men and women do not play with people's hearts.  Behave as such and you attract like-minded people.  The man and women who pleases God will avert all these petty games.
