Older women enjoy the attention and will put more effort into the conversation. Younger good looking women get chatted up all the time and they don't want to necessarily waste their time with you. If you're freezing up and going brain dead then that's your own problem that you have to work through with practice. If you're wondering why it's harder to maintain a conversation with a young woman who you have no initial rapport with, see my first paragraph.

This was the best listed deal breaker in the thread, and OP just talked down to you for it. I know several girls with that exact requirement. The advice you gave is the same advice that would work for most "deal breakers". If the OP is looking for advice with a particular and more serious ailment, such as erectile dysfunction, tiny dick, chronic fatigue, anxiety, depression, obvious physical injury, or physical limitation, then he should directly ask about it, ignoring any potential embarrassmen…

It probably means little to nothing. I used to accidentally bring up my ex in conversations all the time, when a story involved her. New girls never cared, and it's not something to bother thinking about.

When you first meet someone, it's a shit test. When you're in a relationship with someone, it's usually testing boundaries, and let's be honest, if you're secure enough, you do it to them too. If you or her do it too much, it becomes a huge problem.

No need to overreact immediately, but set a precedent and continue doing talking about female friends. Tell her too bad, and that her request is unreasonable. If she doesn't back down, then it's time to move on.

I can't speak for you, as you may naturally be more anxious than me, but, depending on your experience, I would imagine that the anxiety you get from speaking to a beautiful woman is much less than it would have been when you were just starting out. I can't say that you'll have zero anxiety at all times, but it becomes less and less. I wouldn't want people who are just starting this to be intimidated by what you're saying (man up, deal with it, we do the same thing!). It gets a hell of a lot eas…

It's not true that everyone has anxiety and just hides it. Some people are more anxious than others, period. Beyond that, experience builds comfort, and the more sets under your belt, the more you realize that it isn't a big deal. Also, by then you have developed your conversational skill and have answered whatever you consider to be tough questions enough times to not be phased by them anymore. I like your commentary on self-deprecation a lot. I completely agree that it's unwise to use it on a …

In the absence of trying to attract women, the man a lot of people want to be is pretty undesirable (wearing clothes primarily for comfort, spending time alone gaming, instead of socializing, etc.). Realize that you're already trying to change yourself in order to be more attractive to women. It's not a bad idea to actively think about which women a turned on by your current image and which women are turned off. I've written comments on MFA tons of times saying that your look/image is a tool, a …

I love women, but I can easily enjoy ones who aren't traditionally smoking hot. A 6, objectively to other guys can easily be an 8 to me just because of her cute smile, lips, face, or something especially sexy about her personality. You need to experience some women to know what you like. I like a bigger girl if she has an hourglass shape. That is, she still a small waist, big hips, and a nice ass. I didn't originally like this type of woman before hooked up with one. I actually prefer a more cur…

People definitely overuse the lingo here and when you're in person, talking alone. The only benefit of some of the lingo, to me, is that it's a bit of a coded language that disguises what you're talking about slightly, when you're talking in a bar/club between interactions (I could have said sets).

you've completely misunderstood things. Those emotional walls are not good in the first place. Someone without success has a fear of failure and the wall is built to keep his fragile ego from begin hurt. Someone who is practising pickup regularly does not care about the rejection, because he's also having success, and he doesn't take the rejection personally. That is, he doesn't need an emotional wall, because he just doesn't care. As for the one-itis, you were actually, intentionally focusing o…

Piss off. When you put something on the internet, expect for it to be judged. If the hoard disagrees with you, deal with it. Maybe it causes you to rethink how you acted. Maybe you ignore it and keep doing what you're doing.

Everything sounds great up until the couch (actually, screw the cleaning up after dinner part), but at that point it's easier and less rapey to just cuddle with her and go for a kiss. The makeout will lead to sex, if she's into you.

Personally, I'd just tell the friend to relax (politely) and that I'd work things out with Ann, and I'd leave it at that. Who knows what's going on with Ann and this other dude. I've talked masturbation with women tons of times. It's hot. We all do it. She does it. BTW, I have a lot of sex and I still spank the monkey. It's not just something you do in the off season.

I've just come across this guy recently, and I've been really impressed. He has a really chilled, low energy style, where he gets the women doing most of the talking, and he seems to do most of it with staring / facial expressions, along with very direct comments, said in a relaxed low voice. The other thing I noticed was how great this guy's look is. Beyond pickup, I'd love to get fashion advice from him. I'd also like to thank James for the amount of infield footage that he's provided.

His look is incredibly tight. He has amazing fashion sense and his hair is perfect for his face. The one time he dressed up as sasha daygame (including the hairstyle) and tried to pick up girls in Sasha's style, he really didn't look good.

You're severely overthinking this. Just cut HG out of the situation. Tell her that you'll talk to Ann yourself and see what's going on. BTW, the fapping comment likely wasn't a shit test. People here always think everything is a shit test.

I agree that an insecure person can fake confidence through arrogance, but that doesn't mean they're the only arrogant people out there. Think of the self centered people that truly don't give a fuck about anyone else or their feelings. We generally call them assholes. They're often successful at many things and have an incredibly high view of themselves. These guys are absolutely not insecure, because they're secure to a fault. They don't question if they're doing things wrong, because they jus…

I came to post this, because as simple as it is, it works for me. They almost always respond. Joke back and forth with a few texts and then it's logistics of when to meet. Only, if you can't meet up for at least 3-4 days will I a start an additional text conversation, a few days later, just to keep her interest. I text her with my name immediately after getting the number, so she knows who I am. The next day, something as simple as "Hey, how was the rest of your night?" works fine. If they're in…

There are a subset of girls that this will work for, and I'm finding that a lot of people's game involves screening for this type of girl. The majority of girls will not be into Sasha's direct orgasm convo style, though. A less socially adventurous girl may not be into a SNL, but with a bit of comfort and a date can still be an excellent investment for something "non-serious" aka FWB (or just a bang after going on a date). Additionally, if she is in a group of friends when you meet her, I can't …

By the end of the night (or if I think there are slim pickings), I'm a bit more committed. Any thoughts on this? 5) I tend to do basic kino within the first 5-10 minutes and escalate as I build rapport. I usually take at least 10 minutes to isolate to a different area of the same bar and then go for a makeout there. I …

This is where we disagree. When you're already banging 2 girls that give you a good boner, there's less appeal in banging someone who only gives you a semi. A cute 6 with a nice smile will get me hard, though. For semi territory, we're talking about 5 and below (a failing grade).

Hey Qlue, I always enjoy reading your stuff. The biggest thing I've learned about confidence is that it comes automatically with experience. A lot of the fake-it-till-you-make-it advice here is to help you push forward and get the experience you need to really feel it and internalize it. However you do it, gaining experience approaching, talking, and escalating with women will build your confidence with even a marginal amount of success. If you begin to have success, your confidence will soar, a…

Maybe you did, maybe you didn't. The only thing I proved in that last post was that it was more difficult than simply having 52 Saturdays in the year. Logistically, it seems like something that few people could do. If you did it, respect. I grew up in Toronto, where the women are generally great. In highschool, though, the girls would definitely slut shame each other and their reputations were rather important to them. Come college age, it was no longer important.

as a 30 year old with your own place, sure. As a 16/17 year old kid, presumably living with his parents, with no access to bars and clubs, in an era before internet dating, it is much more difficult. That's the bread and butter of this argument. You likely don't have a pool of new women at your disposal to meet and hookup with, but you're stuck with the limited number of women most of us knew in highschool. To further this point, I don't know about your highschool, but you'd get a reputation in …

If you're doing pot or getting drunk less than once a week, I think you're doing fine and have nothing to worry about, addiction wise. I think what people miss out on is that they are part of a social experience. Sex on pot is spectacular. If you haven't tried it, you should. Getting drunk with a girl and being silly can be fun. Do you need these things in your life? No. Are they fun at times, you bet. If you have an addictive personality and you think that you can't handle these things in moder…

A college in a big city is awesome. Lots of options for different bars and clubs, and lots of variety of women. You don't need to date on the same campus, if you don't want, though of course you can.

I'll elaborate as well. It sounds like we can agree that a medium amount of tongue is usually a good start. You can play with the amount after that, depending on her reaction. Just realize that "less is better" sounds like "barely use any tongue" not "don't use an insane amount of tongue".

day game in a book store or coffee shop is good if you want to up your odds a bit, compared to night game (but night game is still good). I often try and get into deep conversations within the first hour of meeting someone. Sometimes it's just me doing a monologue (I've never had anyone turned off by this, pick subjects that branch off of the conversation), and if they engage then you've potentially found someone.

3-4 hours, I guess. I'm usually walking around mingling and I'm at venues where there aren't wait staff serving me. I've never been hassled by staff. I have girls aggressively ask me why I'm drinking water, sometimes. They've never had a problem with my answer that I'm sobering up to drive home.

Most guys I head out with (and myself) drink in moderation, when we go out. 1-2 drinks a night shouldn't cause a problem for expense, using alcohol as a crutch, being too trashed to be effective, or risking a drunk driving charge. I like beer, and there's nothing wrong with that. If I have a third or fourth drink, they're water, as I do drive most of the time.

Make your club night all about the boys. It's your time to go out with your friends and have fun. Have a policy that girls can't get in the way of this. On a practical note, Thursday night is an awesome night to go out, and it's easy to work around. If Thursdays and Fridays are you days out, then the whole weekend is free for gf stuff. If Saturday night is boys night, then she can have Saturday during the day. I try to plan dates on monday-wednesday nights too. Seeing 4 girls is doable only if t…

Some people are just bitter with the world and need to carry grudges. They turn you into a villain and justify the failure in the relationship based on that.

your mild depression may have nothing to do with pickup. The social highs and rebounding with the "I am awesome" reaffirmation probably seem familiar to a lot of us. A lot of creative artist types have depression. A lot of people in general have mild or serious depression. Your journey with battling depression may just have to be something you work on alongside any PUA pursuits.

you did nothing wrong, in terms of what was written. You may have fucked something else up, which is the real reason she didn't stick with you. On the other hand, her friends may have been your downfall. They could have started judging her on the fact that she bought you a drink, instead of the reverse, and suddenly started looking down on her for being with you. Who knows, but it doesn't sound like there is anything to be learned from it.
