Summary

This quote suggests that attempting to impress a woman can lead to unrealistic expectations being placed on a person. By putting on a display of effort or charm, a woman may come to expect a continuously high level of performance or behavior. This can create pressure and make it difficult to maintain the initial standard. The quote serves as a reminder to be genuine and authentic in relationships, rather than trying to constantly impress in order to avoid setting unattainable standards.
