Can Players Become Good Boyfriends?

A player points to himself
Here’s a question I get all the time from my female readers. “Can players change and become loyal, caring boyfriends?” Can womanizers change their ways and become devoted loving husbands? The answer is very simple. 100% yes they can. I used to be a womanizer myself. Back when I was in my 20’s I couldn’t stop dating. I was addicted to women. I loved the whole chase. Some of my friends even gave me the nickname, “Spot the Dog.” Read more

I often wonder this question when I scope out the scene at a nightclub or while watching reality TV like The Real World or The Real Housewives franchise, or even in my personal life observing strangers, friends and friends of friends interacting with guys. I can’t help but notice one common denominator between them all: that more times than not, the girls were pursuing the guys first, or what I like to call ‘hunting’.
