We know nothing else about the guy, maybe he is a DJ, has social proof, has money, knows her friends, socialises with her a lot through a friend group. Some guys "assessment" of his friend, tells us nothing. Maybe OP is an immature little prick, who knows,

WHat is your intent when you try streetgame or daygame, are you chilled, relaxed and present. Or are you like a man on a mission, giving off mad vibes that repel.

I normally argue "game", but in this example, did you approach/message/try it on with that "chick" before he did? If no, do you think if you had taken action, she would of picked him over you? Are you even in environments where you can leverage your looks? If he is using apps, are you using the same apps? If cold approach, are you doing the same thing, actually initiating with women. Or do you just think its looks, and stand there doing nothing, expecting women to do all the work? Or make a prof…

if you are a male, and you do not feel much from a photo of an attractive woman, than yes it is possible you have some sort of health issue going on As in I do not feel an urge to persue or get to know her. If it is an attractive woman, then yeah its just a photo of an attractive woman. Stick it in the wank bank for later. finding apps "boring" is just a strange thing to say. they are not supposed to be enterntainment. it's like saying that you find a ticket booking website boring.

It doesn't bother me that you like apps. What I find madis that you seem bothered that some people don't. Like do you need reddit to validate your life choices or something. For someone who is "killing it" and other guys "hate", you seem pretty fucking insecure to be honest. I've said multiple times that apps can work. I've used them successfully myself. My point has never been "apps are bad" or "they don't work." I have friends who met their wives on dating apps, I'd be some sort of special, if…

There was a change in the way "PUA" was perceived, hence its all turned into "Self Help"... mainly due to RSD Julien. And yeah the online communities changed.

It’s simple for me, put a physical real woman in front of me I feel attraction and am curious about her so everything flows naturally. Put a photo in front of me and a bio, cool whatever, I honestly couldn’t care less. So forcing myself to message and setup a date with someone i don’t care about 1 way or another, it just dosnt work for me. Going to meetup groups works, going to lounge bars works.

Not EVERYONE….. I am sure the “nice guys” stopped approaching. But as far as bars and clubs go, men carried on hitting on women, apart from the “nice guys” anyway, who were good boys and did as they were told. Im sure guys who were confident about themselves also carried on approaching.

2014 was a different climate. Lairs were still a thing and you had mobs of 10 - 15 guys all approaching the same woman to “prove” who was the best. I know in Nottingham UK there were at least 3 lairs doing daygame every Saturday like clockwork. So that is about 25 - 45 guys all doing the Yad stop on the same women every Saturday. Guys were watching RSD en masse, every time a new video came out such as “The claw”, 100s of guys would be trying it. I am happy the community has moved underground. RS…

I want to say, just look into making friends and sorting out childhood trauma. Forget Game, that is more for people who are just doing one or two things wrong, or not at all. Look into Shadow work even if needed. Not normally one to advise Therapy, but its easier to do this tuff with a professional. Getting over approach anxiety and having confidence to speak to women and escalate is one thing. This is another.

Yeah… so true. 10 minutes is easier to manage for me than constant pointless texting. Anyway long story short, I hate texting and as anyone who knows me knows, if it’s important… phone me. Send me a text or Facebook message, it can be up to 24 hours before I respond.

This is why I prefer phone calls or FaceTime, the emotional part of a convo still exists. With texting, it’s non existent.

I hate texting so do as little as possible. Would rather call them or FaceTime them. I do think my lack of texting works, as it creates a natural hot/cold environment. If I am busy at work, watching a film, at the gym or with a friend, I generally ignore my phone (other than initially loading spotify at the gym). So I guess it’s relieving when I do respond.

You move on.., be willing to walk away (by acting on it). If they really want you they will persue. If they don't.. well you can stop wasting time on them. If she friendzones you, cool, ask her to set you up with a single mate of hers. She says she wants to be friends, take her at that. Its not 5 dimensional chess. Just have some self respect dude.

She rejected you, there is nothing more to it. If you look at any “system”, the first step is always to desensitise yourself to rejection. That way you can focus your attention elsewhere without being creepy guy who cannot take a hint. Just say what you say, if she rejects you, thank her for her time, wish her a nice day/evening and move on. Make it clear your world does not revolve around her (also creepy).

I have never tried anything with a waitress so have no experience to be able to say one way or the other. However as far as "Hired Guns" go in bars. Its generally make small talk and flirt when they are not being busy. Obviously as per normal, rejection is always possible. Do not try and force it if they are clearly not interested. Also as someone who has worked in a bar previously, when the bar is dead, its actually great to have someone to talk to. Like, one of the reasons to work in a bar, is…

I may have missed it, but you seem to have missed out "learn to love yourself". Personally, I believe that if a person does not love themselves, then they cannot love another person. Yes they can pedestalize them, obsess over them, serve their every wish and whim (probably under a covert contract), but they cannot genuinely love. If a person is critical of themselves, then they will be critical of others. When we see people who are angry, judgmental, negative, etc, that is just a reflection of h…

I think awareness of this is a key thing. Like yeah I work from home, but I can do improv classes one night of the week, fit in another social event another night. That still leaves free time for the gym, then when the weekend comes when I do my “game” those social muscles are partially flexed. Then I try to do 1 random small talk with a stranger, ideally once a day (sometimes I miss a day, sometimes I do more than one), strangely this seems to have helped the most. As for COVID lockdown, yeah i…

Yeah immersion is a thing. My main issue is I work a geek IT job, which means I don’t get to socialise much at work (wish I had gone into sales). So I have to put effort into warming up and stuff, and find ways to make the “warm up” as minimum as possible. Yet if I take annual leave and go to some other city or country, I am not gonna be stuck working from home, isolated… and being social through out the day then makes talking to women a hella lot easier.
/r/seduction21/06/26 10:17 PM

Honestly your point number 2 seems to have made the most difference for me. It’s like I am always social, it’s no longer a muscle that needs “warming up” ( i work in IT from home, so it’s easy for social skills to get rusty).

I don’t think anyone has said height dosnt matter. But it’s not really worth obsessing over. And on the topic of game, I have been out to social venues with guys who are more attractive but are afraid to approach. So my own “game” is to approach, get them setup with a woman, then do my own thing.
/r/seduction21/06/26 07:28 PM

It depends where you are coming from, when you get into game. I was able to get dates, they would just go nowhere, or I would be told I was a nice guy, or lets just be friends. Name your cliche I heard it. For me at least, looksmaxxing would not of changed anything.

That was my kind of point. When I discovered "cold approach", my question I asked myself was "whats the alternative" and for me, it was just carry on how I was. So it was either, carry on and be unhappy or put myself out there and who knows, grow as a person. Anyway I decided option 2 and I am happy I did. But yeah, its like work, I am studying some stuff in my own time, to upskill. Some people who are unhappy with their job and pay, ask why I am doing that and I am like "whats the alternative?"…

I tend to stick with the same conversational "style" but move onto topics such as relationships, sex etc. Also if it gets too interview, I may chuck in a "Well you are here, going all Spanish Inquisition on me, whilst I am trying to seduce you". Granted, the way I say it seems to come across OK (I know some people think its just about "what" you say, not "how" you say it). Also if its someone I am not into, I will not say shit like that.

My own view which does not seem to be shared on this sub is: Women may find lots of men physically attractive, but to them thats not something will act on. As long as you dont repulse a woman, if she is receptive, then it’s your vibe, communication, etc, that either makes her repulsed or feel safe with you. Sexualising a conversation is a skill. If I bought into “a woman will make it easy if she likes you, game won’t help” well then I wouldn’t even need to approach or open my mouth???

There is the occasional voice of reason (that is often downvoted). t Your next epiphany may be that the whole concept of “game” is severely flawed and that there are perhaps billions of men on the planet who have no idea what game is and still manage to have a satisfactory sexual life—which is very possible when getting laid is just one side of life and not the reason to get out of bed.

Seduction used to be about how to get people to be attracted to you. Now it is just a tool for insecure people to find their next quick fix for their ego. This while community shifts every so often.
