SCAR Letter #12: The Drift Wound — Claim Before She Can Choose Listen. Women don’t walk up to you and say, “I want you.” That will never happen. A woman puts herself in your space and waits to see whether you recognize what she’s showing you. When I was in training, there was a classmate — let’s call her Mia .
