The Crushed Star

This Victim type can be very easy to seduce...if you want to do it. Everyone wants to shine for something at some point, but Crushed Stars want it more and more often than the rest of us. Why? Because they are/ were Stars.

They got used to the attention and, now that they no longer have it, they long for it. They were the center of attention, liked it, but are no longer in the midst of the action. They no longer make a party a success simply by showing up. People no longer get excited at the mere mention of their name. Fans no longer throng them.

Crushed Stars are not necessarily a huge name that you may have heard before (a movie star, athlete, or politician that was paid millions for what they did). He or she might have been a hometown hero, a small time football star, a leader in a local community, or whatever--but everyone knew them. The point is that those days are gone, and the Crushed Star wants them back.

To Recognize:
1. When they receive attention, socially, they will begin to glow (they are Stars after all, just dimmed a little over time).
2. They will speak of Glory Days, and there will be a happy glint in their eye.
3. Get them to loosen up and they will become bubbly and charm those around them.

To Seduce:
1. Make them the center of attention: For the Crushed Star this may as well be the only rule. Your victim lacks attention. Give it to them. If you don't know how, think of what they loved or did. To begin, keep reading.
2. Act as if they are the sun and you are basking in their radiance.
3. Get them to talk (especially about themselves).
4. Socially, mute yourself and make them look amazing.

In seducing a Crushed Star, those that seduce by charm will shine. Charmers, enter into the seduction of a Crushed Star and you may have found the perfect Victim. Charm them and they will become grateful to you (you let them shine, made them feel as if they could), release their pent up intensity, and fall in love with you.

If you are a Star or Dandy, do NOT seduce a Crushed Star. Eventually, you will want the limelight as well and you will lose your victim. And the competition for the limelight can get ugly.

Happy Seducing.
