Stop thinking it's awkward. The only person who makes it awkward is you. It's perfectly normal to talk to a girl anywhere.

Speaking of HB scores, I think HB8 should be the cutoff You should be thinking of your attraction to girls as a binary. You're either attracted to them, or you aren't. Abandon the scores. It'll do you a lot of good.

Who cares how you were brought up, anyone can change their nature. Just practice being more of a touchy person and eventually it will feel comfortable.

No one ever thinks that. If they didn't see it coming they might get startled, otherwise they just turn to find out who tapped them. I just make a joke about them being easily startled. Jokes work very well in those situations.

Having done this many times, I've discovered these truths: You're placing too much importance on the approach. It means next to nothing. There are days where I've literally gone up to 20 different girls and got absolutely nowhere. There are also days where no matter where I went in my day I was flooded with numbers. This is all a numbers game. The individual approaches mean very little as long as you keep accumulating the attempts. There is no moment you can lose. I've hesitated plenty of times,…

For a man, being physically attractive can be achieved by working out, having confident body language, taking care of personal hygiene, and dressing with style. Look at Daniel Craig. His face isn't very balanced, and he has big floppy ears. He's considered a huge sex symbol. Maybe you can't look like Brad Pitt's face, but there's nothing stopping you from maximizing everything else.

You will get rejected, a lot. Even the best pickup artists in the world get rejected. There are many reasons you can get rejected. You might not be their type at all, you might say something wrong, they might be in a bad mood, a guy might have been mean to them in the past, they might be crazy, maybe they don't like your shirt. It really doesn't matter. For every girl that rejects you, and there will be plenty, you learn something. You will find girls that won't reject you. Until then stop worry…

Hey, aren't we in the same club? This isn't rocket surgery here. Just smile, walk over and say something. What you say is vastly less important than how you say it. With a smile, good open body language, good posture, slowly.

The whole point of seduction is that it doesn't rely on appearance, but personality. No, it relies on both. The difference being it doesn't rely on appearance that you have by genetics. Appearance is also influenced by dress, physical fitness, body language, and other factors.

It's not an excuse, it's a pretense. The girl needs this so she can tell herself that the night 'just happened'. She knows the score, but this helps smooth things.

Stop considering it just approaching girls. Talk to everyone, everywhere. Talk to the girl/lady/person on line with you at the grocery or coffee place. Talk to the person near you walking down the street. Talk to the person at the checkout counter. Talk to the people at the bus/subway stop. I don't care where you are, find someone nearby and make an observation, or just say hi. Tell them you like their jeans, shoes, posture, ring, whatever and say why. When you talk to them, always have a smile …

However saying you are hot, wouldn't work that would come across of too sexual I've told girls randomly on the street that they are totally hot, and it worked just fine. It's all in the presentation and body language.

Here is what you need to do to get a higher class of guy: Be in great shape. Learn to work out religiously, get well shaped, excellent legs by working out, toned abs, toned arms, tight butt. Don't be afraid to lift weights, you won't get big. Expect to spend at least an hour a day, for at least 5 days a week in the gym. Everyone can do this. Anyone who says otherwise is full of it. Learn to eat well. It's not easy. Eat a healthy diet. It will affect your appearance in multiple ways. Not just wei…

Go take a look at asian makeup videos on youtube and you'll see it can make a big difference. Most of them wear makeup to change their appearance, and there is nothing wrong with that. It's not false advertising, it's just maximizing what you have. This is the same as wearing sexy clothing or getting in good physical shape. You shouldn't pass up any advantage you can get.

This is total bullshit. If there is something about her appearance you like, you should definitely compliment her, although not immediately when you see her. The main rule with this is it should be something she had to do, like clothes, makeup, shoes, ring, whatever. Don't compliment her on things she got genetically, like eyes, mouth, etc.

Therapy isn't just for crazy people and depressed people. It's for people who have something they are working through mentally, and want a professional to talk to about it who can get to know them long enough to figure it out. However many people who come here are in fact depressed (and occasionally crazy).

To be fair, go do 1000 approaches, and you tend to forget what it was like when one rejection was a big deal. Once you've done it so much, it doesn't really affect you. Thinking back, the first few were pretty crushing. It gets harder to relate at that point.
/r/seduction17/02/13 02:48 PM

Except there are quite a few people who come here and say something along the lines of 'I can't talk to anyone. I'm shut in my basement alone. How do I get a social life?'. These people really need more help than this group can provide, and we should be getting them to see a real therapist.

America is around the same size as all of Europe. You can't generalize. However if you want to compare London and New York, I'd say the following is the difference: They have different accents.

You need to get over this mindset that these girls are innocent and naive. It will serve you poorly in life. You went to a club that caters to foreigners, and japanese girls that like foreigners. They WANT to be hit on by foreign guys, or they would have gone somewhere where it's only locals. Also those girls are more likely to be able to speak English than the average Japanese girl, so you'll have a better shot at communicating there. Besides, you can always use simple words and body language. …

"Are you and your friends going to pay for this shit?" Sounds like you acted like a jerk and she was disappointed. It's not a good idea to be obnoxious to girls, or well anyone for that matter.

Generally Vodka-tonics, vodka-cranberry, vodka-(anything) will be common "girly" drinks. You're kidding right? Vodka drinks aren't girly, unless your idea of a manly drink is battery acid.

In the community there are guys who are in their 50's who routinely pick up super hot girls in their 20's (search for Bullet). There are guys in wheelchairs and with other disabilities who do well (check out Sean Stephenson). Stop looking for bullshit reasons you can't do it.

Most people who aren't married or very successful have roommates in NYC. This is not a big deal. If you bring a girl home and your roommates/uncle are there, say hi to them like it's no big deal, then take the girl to your room where you can have a more private 'conversation'. Unless you're awkward, it's not going to be.

I think the problem for girl is that they know what to do, it's just they don't know how to do it without being seen as slutty. Any guy with sexual maturity doesn't ever see girls as slutty. There are women that are open with their sexuality, and women that aren't. That's it.

I'd say if you adjust your body language, and your presence, it won't matter how you dress. Also don't be shy about making your intentions clear with women, and they definitely won't think your gay.

The thing is I think they would find it awkward or uncomfortable They don't if you don't. If it feels natural to them when you're doing it, as if it's just part of you, then they aren't bothered by it.

Saying romantic things doesn't go against seddit. It just has to come from a place of confidence and not from a place of need, and at the right time in a conversation. Saying something romantic at the right time, especially with a bit of kino thrown in can be awesome. Also everyone has different tactics that can work for them, no one thing is the ultimate answer. I'll leave Commander Riker to get the last word.

"I have a pretty nice car, and one time I accidentally changed the oil. I want to take my car apart and completely rebuild it. How do you do it, do you just start unscrewing". This is the same thing. If you want a skill, you won't find the one set of magic words that works instantly. It takes a ton of practice. Read the sidebar. If you want, pick a dating guru, there are plenty. Read materials. At the same time, practice, practice practice. If you haven't gone up to at least 100 women yet, you h…

The rejection happened long after the tone was set. Bringing her into your frame, and your world is about making her comfortable and a participant in your life. The whole idea is to get to a place where she wants to kiss you, and be close to you.

She may be conservative, but from what I can see you made tons of mistakes. You didn't kino nearly enough. You should be escalating, from light touches, to longer ones, holding hands, putting her hand on your leg, touching the back, moving her around places, etc. Lots of kino. You probably didn't flirt nearly enough, or talk about romantic situations, joke with her, or tease her. It's your reality, not hers. You're letting her set the tone, instead of you, so of course she slowed things down. Be…

I'm 5'10, but I've dated/dating girls much taller than me. Here is the truth, for most girls height doesn't matter. What matters is your confidence, body language, and whether you make it an issue.

It seems like the girls are either taken or flakey. When meeting girls in a public place, some may be taken. The rest say they are taken, or are flakey usually because you did something wrong. Could be appearance, body language, things you said, also could be they are in a bad mood, or just nasty. Your success improves with practice, but it takes hard work, a lot of it. If you haven't approached at least a few hundred women yet, and you're basing your experience on a few approaches, then you nee…

I'd actually say he's confusing introversion and phobia. Introverts prefer not to be around people all the time. They aren't afraid of doing so just by being an introvert. He says: at least not true introverts whose largest fear is talking to people they don't know A person who can't approach people, even to ask for directions has a phobia. True phobias aren't necessarily something most people can just 'man up' and get over. They need real help to get over it. What form this help takes can vary,…

The truth is at some point you have to get over your fear. If you simply can't do it alone, here are some practical ways to do it with help: Join your local seduction community. Go out with them, and ask them to push you into sets. Look ridiculous cause you're so nervous, but get it done and feel better. Take a public speaking class. This will help you with you're ability to talk to others. I recommend Toastmasters. Get one-on-one training with a seduction trainer. Prices vary based on the perso…

Hot girls have insecurities, think some part of themselves is ugly, have abusive parents, crazy uncles, had a time where they made a fool of themselves and feel embarrassed about it, have boring lives, have bad tempers, act like little children, or princesses, stole something, and any of 1000 other normal things people do/are. They are just normal people with one advantage.

I'm not certain of this, but: Me and my roommate just sit in the dorm. Have you considered the possibility that it's you that's the problem. Maybe you're using this as an excuse to not talk to them. Unless this is a very small school, I find it hard to believe every girl is excluding you soley because you're not in a frat. Do you have inner game issues? Maybe your lack of confidence or hesitation is showing through in your conversations. Did you try talking to two or three girls, and used that t…

I feel like crap :( How do I beat that? Don't focus on the fact that you froze. Screwing up happens to everyone, even the best. Focus on the fact that you had your first approach success. Don't worry so much about the next step. Just try to do it again. If you really want to get good at approaching women, you WILL fail a lot. I mean ALOT. There's no magic to this stuff, just a ton of practice. At each step you're going to screw up a bunch, then practice and you'll get better, and then you'll scr…
