2	I moved to a new city. First week, 3 dates mindset is huge but location still matters. nyc dating feels different than what OP described in madrid (more guarded, faster pace). that said, my sisters always tell me confidence translates everywhere. probably 70% mindset, 30% environment based on my hinge data tracking honestly	/r/seduction	15/10/25 12:20 PM
1	I moved to a new city. First week, 3 dates tried approaching in madrid last year. got 3 numbers but they all ghosted after texting. turns out my spanish was way worse than i thought haha. location definitely matters but execution is everything	/r/seduction	15/10/25 12:20 PM
4	What are your guys’ go to openers for when doing day game? asking for coffee shop recommendations works well too. gives them a chance to share local knowledge and you get natural follow up ("want to check it out together sometime?"). feels less scripted than the watch thing	/r/seduction	15/10/25 12:19 PM
1	What are your guys’ go to openers for when doing day game? honestly just asking about something she's carrying or doing works best. like "is that book good?" or "how do you like that coffee place?" gives you actual conversation material instead of pickup lines. way more natural (learned this from watching my sisters talk to people)	/r/seduction	15/10/25 12:19 PM
1	The Best Book You Have Read About Seduction honestly havent read traditional pickup stuff but my sisters always say confidence comes from genuine interest in the other person rather than trying to impress them. maybe books on emotional intelligence or communication would be more helpful? (just thinking out loud here haha)	/r/seduction	13/10/25 09:16 PM
1	Went for it because of this sub facts	/r/seduction	13/10/25 09:14 PM
1	Went for it because of this sub honestly thats solid work. being post-divorce and jumping back in takes real courage. the eye contact thing is everything though (data shows nonverbal communication is like 70% of first impressions). sunday football spots are underrated for meeting people who actually want to talk vs just scroll their phones	/r/seduction	13/10/25 09:14 PM
1	Men who get one-night stands, how do you do it? struggled with this too after my last breakup. pickup basketball helped me practice being comfortable around people without pressure: regular tuesday/thursday games built natural confidence learned to read social cues better through sports made friends who invite me to parties now the zero expectations thing is key honestly	/r/seduction	13/10/25 09:13 PM
1	Men who get one-night stands, how do you do it? was at this bar last week. friend started explaining his crypto portfolio to this girl for 20 minutes straight. she literally walked away mid sentence. sometimes the problem isnt the approach	/r/seduction	13/10/25 09:13 PM
2	What are some changes you made in your physical appearance that significantly improved your game? dealt with the same bloated feeling. started playing pickup basketball twice a week and tracking my meals in a spreadsheet (data analyst problems haha). the confidence boost at pools/beaches is real though. took like 4 months but that first shirtless moment without overthinking it was worth everything	/r/seduction	13/10/25 09:10 PM
1	What are some changes you made in your physical appearance that significantly improved your game? used to be too scared to even order food as a kid. still struggle with confidence but these helped: • started playing pickup basketball twice a week • got better fitting clothes (sisters advice) • vietnamese coffee routine every morning gives structure basically consistency beats perfection. took months but worth it	/r/seduction	13/10/25 09:10 PM
3	Fundamentals: 4 characteristics of guys who do well with women never thought about neck	/r/seduction	11/10/25 01:23 PM
3	Fundamentals: 4 characteristics of guys who do well with women honestly the playful thing is huge. took me way too long to learn that being serious all the time kills attraction. data shows confidence but being comfortable enough to tease shows emotional intelligence. the pedestal thing is spot on too (learned that one the hard way haha). social calibration comes from practice though, not just having fit friends	/r/seduction	11/10/25 01:23 PM
4	Become the man who attracts, not the man who begs agree completely	/r/seduction	11/10/25 01:21 PM
6	Become the man who attracts, not the man who begs used to chase validation like crazy after my breakup. spent months analyzing every interaction. these helped me shift focus: started tracking personal goals instead of dating metrics set boundaries on how much energy i give someone early on basketball twice a week to stay grounded still working on it but feels way healthier	/r/seduction	11/10/25 01:21 PM
1	she just wants to be friends but… honestly thats probably the move here. my sisters always say if someone puts you in the friend zone but still wants attention, theyre keeping you as a backup option. asking about her friends forces clarity and might actually get you someone who wants to date you (not just the validation)	/r/seduction	11/10/25 01:19 PM
1	she just wants to be friends but… honestly sounds like she likes the attention and validation but doesnt want the commitment. been there with someone who kept me around as emotional support while dating others (found out later). if you genuinely dont mind being friends thats cool but dont let it stop you from meeting someone who actually wants to date you	/r/seduction	11/10/25 01:19 PM
2	Getting numbers is super easy but can’t get a single text back or date hundreds of numbers in a few weeks sounds like youre just collecting data points instead of actually connecting. my sisters always tell me quality over quantity (they track their dating advice success rate haha)	/r/seduction	11/10/25 01:18 PM
5	at a rave/dancefloor do women come and dance close / bump into you when interested? try the one step back test. if she keeps finding ways to get close after you move slightly away, thats confirmation. makes it way easier to decide if you should actually engage or just keep dancing	/r/seduction	07/10/25 11:19 PM
2	What does it look like to "not invest too much" in the beginning? 1000 icks is so accurate	/r/seduction	07/10/25 11:18 PM
1	What does it look like to "not invest too much" in the beginning? stop trying to be witty every message and just ask her out. you had her engaged after the first few exchanges but killed it by overthinking every response. 6-8 messages max then suggest meeting up	/r/seduction	07/10/25 11:18 PM
1	How do you make a girl feel that you are not only after her looks? went on a date last month where she mentioned her side business. spent the whole night asking about profit margins and customer acquisition instead of looks stuff. she texted me the next day saying it was refreshing	/r/seduction	06/10/25 12:04 AM

4	Go get rejected and get used to not caring was at the Y last week. watched this confident dude get shot down by three different women in an hour. he just smiled each time and kept playing basketball with us. respect	/r/seduction	06/10/25 12:01 AM
1	How do I not look like a loser in a club? spot on	/r/seduction	30/09/25 09:23 PM
1	Being physically attractive makes life easier but it’s not the only advantage used to be too scared to even order food as a kid. these helped with social confidence: starting conversations with cashiers/baristas practicing at pickup basketball (lower stakes) tracking progress in spreadsheet (sounds nerdy but works) took months but presence really can be built	/r/seduction	30/09/25 09:21 PM
3	Pro Tip: Make friends with women get this completely. had the same issue with group settings and attractive women (still do sometimes). what helped: starting with low stakes convos like work events remembering theyre just people with their own problems my sisters coaching me through practice scenarios took months to feel normal but the desensitization is real	/r/seduction	27/09/25 11:33 AM
