What Attracts and What Pushes People Away

Description

Seduction is not only about romance, it’s about how we attract, influence, and connect with others in everyday life. Robert Greene’s The Art of Seduction explores the traits that draw people in, but also those that push people away, what he calls anti-seducers.

In this session, we’ll:

- Explore the idea of seduction beyond love and romance.
- Discuss Greene’s concept of anti-seducers and what makes someone less likable.
- Reflect on how some of these traits might appear in our own lives, often without us noticing.
- Contrast “charming” behaviors with “repelling” ones to gain insight into human connections.

This will be a thought-provoking and honest conversation where everyone can share freely, reflect critically, and maybe even laugh at the quirks we all have.

Questions list

1. Who is someone (celebrity, leader, or character) you find naturally charming? Why?

2. Can you think of a time when you met someone who instantly put you off? What happened?

1. In your opinion, what makes a person truly attractive, beyond looks?

2. Greene says people are drawn to what they lack. Do you agree? Why or why not?

3. One “anti-seducer” trait is self-involvement (talking only about oneself). Why do you think this pushes people away?

4. How can insecurity show up in conversation, and why might it repel others?

5. Do you think someone can be charming in one culture but not in another? Can you give examples?

6. Is seduction always conscious, or can people be magnetic without trying?

7. Can we change our “unattractive” traits once we notice them? How?

8. Do you think being too eager to please can make someone less likable? Why?

9. How do power and confidence play into attraction? Can too much confidence be a problem?

10. Which anti-seducer trait do you think is most common in today’s world (social media, dating apps, etc.)?

1. You'll have 6 to 10 minutes to have a free talk.
