The observation is that people are attracted to happy, successful, interesting individuals. That and the personality traits associated with them make others want to learn more about you, spend time with you.
Hmmm, tempting, tempting. Seriously, this is so true. Absolutely true... again, the morality issue for me, personally, but this is very true. For those of you open to it, just dating, even if your spouse doesn't know, will raise your PMA to a level that will attract them back.
The same can be said for many other avenues, though... For instance, if you have not truly detached, they just "know" even if you consistently "show" them and "tell" them that you no longer care, if you truly do, even on some deep level, they will just "know" that you are still attached.
That's why to properly DB, you must not hold onto the rope loosely, you must drop it. You must make changes for you and make them real and deep. There is a lot of non-verbal body language that goes on in a person's life that they read daily. Others just "know" when you're high value. Rob has gotten there, and so glad to see his example set up there for us.
