This post is a The Art of Seduction summary. Specifically, it is a summary of Part 2, Chapter 1: Choose Your Target.

The Art of Seduction was written by Robert Greene. This chapter summary was written by Sam Fury.

Anyone you wish to seduce must be studied. Only choose those who will most likely succumb to your charms.

The best targets are those in whom you can fill a void. They will also have a natural quality that you are genuinely attracted to.

The Perfect Target

Most people choose a mate based on things like physical attractiveness or similar interests and goals. 

Instead, the perfect target is someone who affects you in a way that can’t be easily explained. Perhaps they hold some quality that you lack and desire.

There should also be some tension between you. The target may even dislike or fear you a little.

And of course, the perfect target must be susceptible to your charms, so test them first.

Recognizing a Good Target

The way to recognize a good target is by paying attention to how they respond to you on an unconscious level. 

Do they blush, mirror your gestures, seem unusually shy, get angry at you easily, etc.?

All of these signs, even the negative ones, show that you have an effect on them, which means they are open to your influence.

How they affect you can also be a sign, e.g., if they excite you or make you uneasy.

Take Your Time

People often choose to seduce easy targets. The ones that obviously like them. But that’s insecurity, not seduction. 

Choose the challenge. Look at those that you don’t usually consider.

Easy Pickings

Those that are content and/or happy, have no imagination, are very busy, or are very extroverted, are often the hardest to seduce. 

The bored, needy, and/or shy are easier. 

Neither target is right or wrong. It depends on you and your style.

Remember This

The most important thing when choosing your target is to choose someone who is open to you.

Trying to seduce someone who is not susceptible to your charms or will not give you the level of chase and pleasure you desire is a waste of your time.
