I don't like Magic Bullets. Read 60 Years of Challenge.

There's also a fair amount of misogyny towards the end. He goes a little nuts against feminism.

The blog looks like a terrific idea. A few pointers: I don't see any kino. A great way to get some kino in, day or night, is to introduce yourself and shake hands. But when you're shaking her hand, HOLD ON A LITTLE LONGER THAN USUAL. This will give her the impression that what you want is more than just the usual greeting. If she's not into it, you can tell right away, and then you'll have a better idea from the start whether or not she's worth pursuing. (Credit goes to 60 Years of Challenge for…

It's okay to read if you view it as entertainment and don't take it too seriously. I think much of the book is exaggerated.

If you're not fluent in Japanese yet, go to Gaspanic (and a bunch of other clubs) in Roppongi. Your (presumed) Western-ness and lack of Japanese speaking skills will be a plus there. Also, don't focus so much on words, focus more on escalating kino quickly if you can tell she's into you.

There is a little practical discussion on PUA Hate, specifically in the "Shitty Advice" section, but for the most part, techniques are eschewed. PUA Hate is where I learned about 60 Years of Challenge and Paul Janka, who both emphasize that: It's mostly a numbers game. Some girls are going to be into you so long as you don't screw it up, and some girls are never going to sleep with you. Instead of wasting your time with routine stacks and opinion openers, just start talking to a girl and gauge h…

I think "tons of haters just hating" is an over-simplification. If you read the first thing I linked to by Aaron Sleazy, you might see the value in a place like PUA Hate. I'm not against picking up girls, I'm against things that are unnecessarily complicated and potentially damaging, like Mystery Method. When it comes to picking up chicks, I like to take a minimalist approach. It's nice to see from your post that you have a skeptical mind.

Personally, I'm a fan of 60 (Check out 60 Years of Challenge if you can find it somewhere), also Paul Janka and Aaron Sleazy. Bootcamps can help you temporarily get over approach anxiety, but not really worthwhile otherwise. Whatever thousands of dollars you might spend on a boot camp, you would be better off spending that money on psychological therapy if you have trouble approaching girls or getting "friendzoned." Here's a list of stuff I recently e-mailed to a friend of mine: Aaron Sleazy's D…

This is the pot calling the kettle black, absolutely. Neil created the "Annihilation Method," limited the number of copies to 375, and set the price at over $3000, so he easily made over $1,000,000 in a single day. And the "Annihilation Method" isn't even that good. If you want a more solid critique of the Seduction Industry, read this: Aaron Sleazy's "Debunking the Seduction Community" EDIT: The guys at PUA Hate are having a field day with this: here

Thank you so much for this post. I have to say, a lot of PUA stuff gave me more approach anxiety than before I discovered it. Now that I've found things like Intimate Connections by David D Burns, No More Mr. Nice Guy by Robert Glover, puahate, 60 years of challenge, and Paul Janka's books, I've learned to stop worrying and love getting blown out. Kudos to you, sir.

Also because a lot of "PUAs" make outlandish claims, and their "training/knowledge" is vastly overrated. For the most part, it's a numbers game. If you're persistent, you'll eventually get the girl you want.

I'm sorry about the downvotes you're getting. A lot of Man Transformation is repackaged pop psychology and self-help. The video series is fascinating to watch, but it could have been done in less time with fewer guest speakers. I mean, it's somewhere around 30 or 40 hours of video, Jesus Christ! I will say that I liked his video on time management, and it's good that he's trying to encourage guys to be more empathetic, but overall it reeks of the PUA guru industry circle-jerk.

Perhaps, but I think a lot of people underestimate the power of silence. If used properly, it could raise sexual tension. Less of an "awkward pause" and more of a "why aren't we already making out?" pause. Exhibit A: Mickey Rourke in 9 1/2 weeks

I also like Paul Janka, though I have yet to try out his method full force. Keep in mind that Paul is tall, relatively wealthy, a Harvard grad, and lives in Manhattan. It's nice, though, that he admits it's mostly a numbers game. No matter how you look, some girls are bound to go out with you.

"The 7 hour rule" could fuck with his head if he's ever in a situation where he could get laid very quickly and he's putting it off for artificial reasons. "Neg a 10 at least 3 times" could fuck with his head because there's the possibility that the girl already likes him and he pushes it a little too far. Mystery Method assumes that all girls are the same and uses a one-size-fits-all approach. It assumes that the indirect approach is better than the direct approach. It uses a long linear model …

Everyone has to go through a learning curve of making mistakes in order to get better, no matter the age. And there are better QuickStart Guides than Mystery Method, imho, like 60 years of challenge and paul janka's stuff.

You'll have to forgive me, I know I'm being a keyboard jockey. I've read Mystery Method, watched his videos, read The Game, watched some stuff from other "gurus" like Tyler Durden & the RSD gang, David DeAngelo of DYD, and Lance Mason of Pickup 101. I've gone out and tried a lot of this stuff in bars & clubs, but ultimately, I spent a lot of time trying to reconcile this stuff with my own experience and the experiences of other people I've seen and read about.

You got me. I don't think it entirely invalidates what I said about Mystery Method, but you're right. At least I'm being honest about my success rate. I don't make the claim that it's possible to attract any woman using a given method (like Mystery does). Occam's Razor says that the simplest explanation tends to be the best, and Mystery Method is far from simple. There are lots of people with simpler methods that are still effective.

I really like the idea, but I'm worried about your criteria for who should be chosen for "seddit gurus." The people with the most posts are usually the ones with too much time on their hands. For instance, I've made dozens of posts on Seddit, but I'm currently going through a 2-year dry spell. I look forward to hearing more and, in the future, I hope I can build up enough experience to provide better feedback to Seddit.

I don't think the training wheels analogy is entirely apt. Imagine if you had a son, and your son was an adolescent just starting to get used to dealing with his sexuality (assuming that he's heterosexual). Suppose he came to you and said, "Dad, I'm not sure how to get a girlfriend." What would you tell him? If I was in that position, I'd tell him to play sports, get involved in clubs and other activities, go to parties, take charge and be ballsy. I wouldn't tell him, "I think you need to use a …

You can become more comfortable with women by doing things like joining clubs/organizations, talking to women in class or at work, making smalltalk at Starbucks, seeing a therapist, etc. Routines are unnecessary and, potentially, counterproductive because they can prevent you from thinking on your feet.

I think that Erik didn't get laid before MM because he was uncomfortable and awkward around women. Just because he has a method doesn't mean it should be taken as gospel or that it necessarily will work for all guys. Routines are an unnecessary crutch.

A review of The Blueprint Decoded If you want to want to watch it for purely entertainment value, go for it. But don't let it mess with your head. I've never seen "Deep Inner Game," but I have watched DeAngelo's "Man Transformations," which is just some repackaged pop psychology with most of the time taken up by guest speakers. If you really want to work on "inner game," I suggest you start with this book.
/r/seduction28/10/10 02:08 PM

Exactly this! I think people make fun of Mystery Method because Erik overcomplicated the process of picking up a girl. I think he created a method to make himself feel more comfortable with the process. IMHO, Erik gets laid because he's incredibly tall, doesn't look drab, is comfortable and can carry a conversation with a bit of natural charisma. And, to be honest, he could probably get laid with less effort if he didn't have arbitrary restrictions like "the 7 hour rule" or "neg a 10 at least 3 …

Mystery Method PS - I'm just trolling you. Mystery Method won't help you with your predicament. Disregard women, acquire wealth (at least for right now). Think of how much you spend to have a single instance of sex with this woman. Now, imagine using that same amount of money to improve your wardrobe, or see a therapist, or get a gym membership. Use the money on yourself, and the women will come.
/r/seduction23/10/10 03:13 AM

Yeah, if you read "Intimate Connections", it might help you get to the point where you won't worry about what to say. A lot of "pick-up advice" should be replaced with psychological therapy.

My recommendations: Go to the gym, join activities, see a therapist, etc. etc. A good book I've found: "Intimate Connections" by David D Burns. I'm also a fan of "60 years of challenge" (find a torrent if you can) and stuff by Paul Janka. Also, puahate.com sounds like it's very negative, and it can be, but mostly it tries to be a watchdog against a lot of pick-up material that can do more harm than good.

A fat guy with a neck beard and a slayer t-shirt is, for many women, a "no-go" situation. On the other hand, a fat guy who's clean shaven with a good haircut and a good suit is, for many women, a "maybe."
/r/seduction09/10/10 02:18 AM

I'd say, travel to the nearest gay neighborhood and, as you ratchet up your style, use their attention as a barometer. For instance, separating your uni-brow might get you better reactions from the ladies, while getting perfectly waxed eyebrows and a haircut that looks like it was done with a laser micrometer would get you more looks in Boystown or the Castro or the East Village or West Hollywood.

The way he explains it (and you'll have to read Paul Janka's book "Attraction Formula" and judge for yourself whether or not he's full of shit): He meets up with girls on the streets of Manhattan during the day and chats with them for about a minute before getting a phone number.

Read some stuff by Paul Janka. The guy is over 6 foot tall, good looking, well dressed, and walks around getting phone numbers in Manhattan like a machine (like 45 per week), and he still only closes about 11% of the phone numbers he gets. Now, I'm just starting out, so take my advice with a grain of salt, but keep at it and you'll get dates. Don't expect a lot of girls to respond.

Another suggestion: Lance Mason of Pickup 101. He used to be one of those guys that followed Mystery around doing canned material and wearing crazy outfits at nightclubs, but now he focuses more on daytime approaches and building deep rapport.

Just sign up with an MSN account and, if you meet a girl on the subway or wherever, you could ask for her MSN username if she's not comfortable about giving away her cell phone number.

I've never been sarging in Taiwan, but I went there once on a week-long business trip. I work for a family-owned distribution company in the USA, and I went to visit the company that makes our plastic rulers. The boss' daughter fell in love with me, but I think that was partially because I was white, American, and came from a place of power (artificial, in my opinion).

I think you need to see a therapist. Before you can go trying to meet women, you need to get your self-loathing down to a more manageable level. I also think that you assume people immediately see the worst in you, but in fact, most people are indifferent about you until you interact with them.

I think she asked you out because she probably doesn't have anyone better to go with her to see Twilight.

Okay, I see the error of my logic. First I said "don't attach too much meaning to [her making out with you]" then I said that making out led to her "[seeing] him as a potential sex partner." Either way, he doesn't have control of the situation and should eject.

It's hard to fault you for this situation when she keeps calling you repeatedly.

I agree with you that she does use him for validation, but the difference between "dick in a jar" and "orbiter" seems subtle.

You might be getting too overwhelmed by viewing what you need as a huge change. I forget whether I heard this from RSD or Pickup101, but the difference between a champ and a chump is really subtle behaviors. Work on one sticking point at a time - break it down into small pieces.

One-itis. Hot girls tend to keep a group of AFC guys near them just to do little favors. The phrase "dick in a jar" could refer to any one of them, where the guy could get sex if she decides to "break the glass in case of an emergency." You really ought to spend more time playing the field and FTOW. I mean, you're 18 days into this "relationship" with her, and you haven't presented the strongest role to her yet.

I'm a fan of RSD and Pickup 101 (which I think might now be called the Art of Attraction). I've been disenchanted with Mystery's stuff - it's too structured and gimmick-y in my opinion. Lance Mason's Pickup 101 seminars really seemed informative and simple to follow, and they have the added bonus of having women's opinion to corroborate Lance's theories.
