Will reading poetry in french, playing Chopin and wearing a wool coat that smells of pipe tobacco get me a gf? What books impress girls? Are they into Sappho?

Avoid strong opinions on Dickens, Orwell, Melville or Hemingway. Women generally do not understand them. Tread carefully with professing a love for Steinbeck. Don’t read any thrillers or crime novels.

This is what the life pleb thinks. However, there is a rune like tune that reads like this: A brim of the brow, a turn of the eye, a pinch of the nose, a mouth of the shy. Seek what you sight, and cull what you cry, but never you'll find, the glow of the brie.

Gym culture is absolutely toxic as for books to impress girls I'd say any Nabokov really.

Jane Eyre types - want to feel like they fell in love because of logic, like thinking you are kind and a good person and respectful

Wuthering Heights types - want to fall in love because it’s fated and shit. True love etc etc

>which should I pursue?
Whichever is the more attractive.
