appearances matter

if you want to attract that handsome stranger
it is not enough
to be intersted in him
in fact, it is not important
or even necesssary
to be in interested in him

it is only necessary
to appear to be interested

and if you want to be loved
by that handsome acquaintance
it is not enough
to be in love with him
or to adore him with all your heart and soul

you don't have to love him
or care about him
you only have to appear
to do so

and the more perfect the art,
(with as much practice as possible)
the more chances you have
