Reaction to Vladimir Nabokov's "Lolita" (Part 3)

[Part 1]
[Part 2]

SPOILERS AHOY!

Quoting the book, the main character thinks "I was, and still am, despite mes malheurs, an exceptionally handsome male; slow-moving, tall, with soft dark hair and a gloomy but all the more seductive cast of demeanor [...] Well did I know, alas, that I could obtain at the snap of my fingers any adult female I chose; in fact it had become quite a habit with me of not being too attentive to women lest they come toppling, bloodripe, into my cold lap."

:D reminds me of Mystery:


and his "Mystery Method" :)

[Part 4]
