| 1 | How to go about asking to hang out via texting?"Let's hang out some time" and "Wanna hang out some time?" accomplish very little. At best you've gauged her feelings as neutral or above vs negative. But you have only turned one question into two, because now you still have to ask: "want to hang out this Friday at __?" Or tell her "Meet me at __ this Friday." So now you're back where your original question began: do you assert, or inquire? Only now you've undermined any credibility on the assertive side. "Wanna hang out some time?" "Yeah, cool… | /r/seduction | 05/10/15 04:05 PM |
| 4 | Got her number.. But what the hell? Doesn't make sense. Females are worse than a rubics cube.Your text game is bad. The first one is okay. A little douchey, but in bounds, and she responded relatively well to it. But your second one? Terrible. Pay attention to this advice around here. Use texting to move things somewhere, not to create idle chit chat. And certainly don't send rather pointless messages that assume a familiarity / friendship when what you want is to seduce her. She doesn't care about your iPad. Save that awkward joke for your buddy from high school. That's just you sharin… | /r/seduction | 25/06/15 06:53 AM |
| 3 | Be honest - is it really possible for south asian bald man to get a woman?It might be harder, but you definitely can. Guys in SF have no balls (to speak in obvious generalities, I know plenty of girls and they tell me this consistently, guys here don't take charge). Be outgoing and fun and seductive, and dress in a way that works too your advantage and you'll do fine. | /r/seduction | 22/06/15 05:59 AM |
| 1 | HELP! When a girl says she wants you to have a girlfriendGood man! I'm proud of you. It takes balls, but in life, balls are what separate winners from whiners. | /r/seduction | 19/05/15 06:35 AM |
| 1 | 33/F. Want to increase my social status with friends and at work.Lead. In informal conversations, be friendly, but don't get drawn into gossip. Maintain an air of slight aloofness when talks turn negative, and keep your mouth shut. In formal settings, listen first, and contribute wisely. Every organization, every department, every meeting you are judged by reputation first, and then by action. Cultivate your reputation as a problem solver and an includer. Look for opportunities to work closely with those above you, even when inconvenient or with minor immedia… | /r/seduction | 18/05/15 10:14 PM |
| 1 | HELP! When a girl says she wants you to have a girlfriendThat sounds a little on the timid side. Caveat: its been a long time since I was your age, and my memory of high school has faded, so maybe that's how you want to play it. But here's my reaction, for whatever its worth. You're at the same table. I don't really know what that means or why it would be weird do you to be there, officially "together" instead of there as acquaintances. But I do know that the latter isn't going to get you any closer to an answer on the important point of is she into y… | /r/seduction | 18/05/15 07:54 PM |
| 1 | HELP! When a girl says she wants you to have a girlfriendAsk her out to something more casual first. Less pressure, will give you both more rapport before the prom. If the first date goes well, you can ask her to be your prom date, which will be an easy sell. If you want to be playful, since she opened you with the "i want to see what you'd be like as a bf" and you kind of missed the immediate response, you can tell her you want to take her out somewhere on friday to see how much fun she would be to take to the prom. Be a little cocky when you say it. | /r/seduction | 18/05/15 04:47 PM |
| 8 | Went to a nightclub last night - not sure if I'm ugly or not now :/You're not close to ugly. And as you said, you're 6'3", so its not looks/physical appearance. I mean, you maybe look a little too "nice" in that pic, and I don't know if the summer scarf throws a gay vibe or not, but that wouldn't be why you'd get shut down in a club. My guess is you're either too animated dancing by yourself at the club appearing to try too hard without friends around to provide social validation (bring some, or find a lower value girl who obviously wants some attention to star… | /r/seduction | 08/05/15 04:25 PM |
| 2 | Stop checking your phoneShoot the hostage. Direct the bus into restricted airspace at LAX. Unload Megan Fox onto a modified skateboard out the back door and slide to safety. K-close 100 yards from the resulting explosion. Kobayashi Maru, bitches. | /r/seduction | 13/03/13 12:22 AM |
| 1 | Stop checking your phoneYeah, that's fair. I guess I did make a bit of a strong claim as to value. I really meant that not reaching for your phone when you feel out of state for a minute should help you stay in the game and project that you're comfortable and confident and approachable, whereas (in your mind at least, but probably true) those other guys are succumbing to that anti-social impulse. Sort of like how guys bury their hands in their pockets because they don't know what else to do with them, and body language… | /r/seduction | 12/03/13 07:01 PM |
| 1 | Stop checking your phoneAlpha as fuck. :) | /r/seduction | 12/03/13 06:51 PM |
| 1 | Stop checking your phoneYeah, I said higher value, but I guess I meant more that you project comfort and confidence (which to me is higher value) versus appearing anxious or timid by turning to your phone for escape. While those guys are reading advice animal memes to avoid feeling ignored, you could be making eye contact with a cute girl or opening her because you've forced yourself to live in the moment and find & create opportunity. | /r/seduction | 12/03/13 06:49 PM |
| 1 | Stop checking your phoneMostly true. But you don't have to be still as a stone. Just need to relaxed and confident in yourself. Its okay to have a little motion in your life, maybe even be grooving along to a beat in your head as long as you're present and putting out a cool vibe. Just try not to fidget because you're uncomfortable, like you said. | /r/seduction | 12/03/13 06:42 PM |
| 1 | Stop checking your phoneBecause real men only lift to one song on repeat: Eye of the Tiger. It activates muscle growth. Next question! :) | /r/seduction | 12/03/13 06:36 PM |
| 2 | Stop checking your phoneMaybe I should clarify, a few of you guys seem to have interpreted my advice to be "never use your phone" which wasn't my intent. Obviously there are legitimate reasons for using a phone. However, pulling it out to check the time is often a (mild) nervous habit that people have when they are momentarily disengaged from their surroundings, or feel stalled. Especially when done repeatedly or more than once every 15 minutes or so. You're not waiting for your meal to cook or timing an experiment, yo… | /r/seduction | 12/03/13 06:32 PM |
| 1 | Stop checking your phoneMany thanks. I'm glad you found it helpful. Tbh, never expected to get so many responses. | /r/seduction | 12/03/13 04:16 PM |
| 2 | Stop checking your phoneAnd maybe she thinks you're ugly/creepy when you're assuming attraction, like you've been advised to do here. These concepts are meant to bolster your confidence and take risks without letting the natural anxiety get the better of you. You lose nothing by approaching with an assumption that your advances will be welcomed. | /r/seduction | 12/03/13 03:31 AM |
| 1 | Stop checking your phoneThen you set the building on fire! What do you want me to say? In that case, I suppose you'll need to employ some of the many other lessons you've learned from this community. My post wasn't meant as a magic bullet. Like they say in The Wire: the game is the game. My advice was just intended to save you from the behavior that I see (and do) so often that takes people out of the game and refocus that impulse toward a positive, social end. | /r/seduction | 12/03/13 03:27 AM |
| 13 | Stop checking your phoneIf you're checking for the time you'll look like you're bored, you don't want to talk to anybody, and you're just waiting to get the hell outta there. Totally. It doesn't say "I'm important", it says "I'm nervous and don't know what to do right now." I think we all recognize the faults. But like you, I didn't realize how much of a difference it can make. Then my phone started acting up and some nights I wasn't left with a choice to look at my phone. Good things would happen. It took me awhile to… | /r/seduction | 11/03/13 11:49 PM |
| 3 | Stop checking your phoneThanks. I agree, not checking your phone is pretty obvious (despite the fact we all do it too much). Thanks for understanding that I was trying to share my approach to curbing the habit. I hope it helps some others turn their social anxiety into an opportunity. | /r/seduction | 11/03/13 11:39 PM |
| 10 | [FR] "If i didn't have a boyfriend i would have sex with you right here on the dancefloor"It was a "White-Tie" event. They are not like a casual dinner party with friends. Think Political Fund-Raiser / Charity Ball. Or James Bond at an evil villain's estate banquet. | /r/seduction | 03/01/13 12:12 AM |
| 3 | [FR] When the crazies hit the clubsI'm only partially busting your balls. I enjoyed the FR. Keep em coming. Obviously knowing the club owner is a huge advantage, major DHV plus logistics (try getting a BJ on the dancefloor). We should all take note and endeavor to establish an "in" like that at places whenever possible. It's a good tip, and it made your night work. Without it, there's a good chance the bouncer would have looked at your 6-guy crew, hopped up on X (or whatever it was) and you'd have spent all night in line. But eit… | /r/seduction | 27/12/12 10:26 PM |
| 4 | [FR] When the crazies hit the clubsTakeaways: Know the club owner. Have no shame. (DGAF) Careful what drugs you mix. On 12/22/2012 the Mayans actually predicted a successful Apocalypse Opener, not actual Apocalypse. | /r/seduction | 27/12/12 09:21 PM |
| 2 | [FR] Hello, I love you. Won't you tell me your name?I think the right tone and smirk makes it usable, but in general you're right. However, I'm going to use it either way just because it makes me laugh. Fuck'm if they can't take a joke. | /r/seduction | 22/12/12 06:13 PM |

| 0 | I'm a bisexual female, and I would like tips on upping my game.Lead the interaction. As that other poster said, take the dominant posture. I might be wrong, but I presume even girls who are into/open to other girls still act like girls and respond best to confidence. Also, project that your advances are perfectly normal. This is important: You have the advantage here, they may be unsure of your intent and slightly off balance while they figure out how to respond, whereas you know and can control where the interaction leads. The "bitch shield" that is usuall… | /r/seduction | 07/11/12 05:27 PM |
| 1 | [FR]got the #close, but no reply to text?Your goal right now is getting a response via a single text message. Something playful or provocative or whatever it is that makes you interesting enough to engage with. This can be an idle comment, or an invitation. But it needs to be fun and/or intriguing. If you say "Do you want to get lunch tomorrow" you might as well not bother. Read through some of the threads here, draw inspiration. Then inspire her to want to spend time with you, or at very least to respond to your first message and show… | /r/seduction | 11/10/12 06:40 AM |
| 1 | [FR]got the #close, but no reply to text?Appreciated. Hope it helps. | /r/seduction | 10/10/12 10:56 PM |
| 3 | [FR]got the #close, but no reply to text?Meant to add as a tip: Always assume a level of familiarity just a bit beyond the one you've already reached. Sort of like the old saying "dress for the job you want, not the one you have". If you act like you've advanced to level 2, her reality is going to catch up to yours. Things progress because someone takes initiative. If you maintain your interactions like you guys are on level 1, chances are you'll stay there permanently. They call this the friend-zone. | /r/seduction | 10/10/12 10:53 PM |
| 4 | [FR]got the #close, but no reply to text?I don't think you messed up by texting her the same night. Was this last saturday night, or what? I think your issue is that "it was nice meeting you, drive home safe" doesn't build attraction. It also doesn't elicit a response. It's sort of a "hey, now you have my phone #, too" message, and that's fine, but the ball has not been transferred to her court. The best you would expect is a "thanks, you too", and not getting one just means she isn't so wildly attracted to you that she'll respond to u… | /r/seduction | 10/10/12 10:44 PM |
| 1 | [FR]First Date, Pretty sure I Friendzoned myself.Maybe I just date lightweights. It's the way you said it that made me laugh. You led me to think one thing (that you were about to order her some weak, girly drink) and then went the other direction. Actually, that would have been a funny way to tease her. | /r/seduction | 01/10/12 05:41 AM |
| 3 | [FR]First Date, Pretty sure I Friendzoned myself.she seems reluctant. Telling me she's driving and doesn't want to drink too much. I grab her a martini... Sorry man. It's not clear from your write-up what might have gone wrong. But I got a kick out of this part. I guess she might have been able to pace herself better with a strong drink such as a martini, but it reads like: "She said 'I don't want to go crazy tonight, I have an early morning, let's take it easy.' I ordered us two irish car-bombs and a tequila chaser." | /r/seduction | 01/10/12 05:28 AM |
| 2 | Re-Seducing a girl who knows I'm in a relationshipThis post really seems like it belongs somewhere else, and I found it rather pathetic, to be completely honest. Sorry. I don't have a problem with you being into the other girl, or even with the first drunken mistaken hook-up really (some people would, but I can forgive that sort of impulse). But don't use the girlfriend you no longer want to be with as a pawn in the sleazy game you're plotting. If this other girl made you realize you shouldn't be with her, end it. Deal with that issue independe… | /r/seduction | 06/07/12 06:49 AM |
| 17 | So I am on this cruise right now in Eastern Europe and I'm the only guy under 30...The fact that you're all surrounded by seniors gives you plenty of reason to talk to them. You're all bored because there's no one your age around and no youthful activities: "Hey, I've been trying to get a dance party started all week, but none of the passengers can seem to keep up. What do you say?" No doubt the girls are getting too much attention from some of the old guys, flip it around and empathize playfully: "If one more of these old ladies slips me her cabin key, I'm gonna file for harr… | /r/seduction | 17/06/12 01:02 AM |
| 1 | So, did I just lose? Or still a way to save this?Sorry, it's not happening. By now this girl thinks you're obsessive or creepy. It sounds like you might have been friendzoned early because you weren't clear, and then you shocked her by expressing interest too late. A girl who likes you would definitely respond to "I think you're cute" somehow within a week (be it with a thank you, playful teasing, a return of the compliment)... midterms, vacation, spontaneous war, doesn't matter. A different, less generic expression of your interest in her mig… | /r/seduction | 16/06/12 11:24 PM |
| 9 | Scenario: Now or never in a crowd, hb10 by herself in a line, obvious attraction, no wing.I have no similar experience to offer involving bosses, but after brainstorming the scenario, I have two suggestions: A) Tell your boss you'll be right back (or say you need to check something on your ticket), headed over to the gate attendant by HB10's line. Then ask a question, or wait in the line, whatever, just long enough to ensure your boss is bored and not watching you intently. B) Make eye contact and smile - make sure you get a smile in return or you might be facing an awkward rejection… | /r/seduction | 16/06/12 08:53 PM |
