| 1 | What are ways to build confidence and how to show it?Confidence is an expression of strength. Confidence is having only insignificant insecurities. Confidence is not having need for validation. In this condition you naturally let your good personality traits shine forth. Confidence can be built primarily by obtaining validation, first and foremost validation from women. Also validation from friends. Also validation from people you look up to (such as parents or a teacher). Also validation from social success and impressing your surroundings.

| 1 | Women need to give men more chances for a while before ghosting them out forever...A ‘personality’ is not really a thing in this context, I’d say. It’s the ways that you use your personality traits and the way that you can show them and the whole way you wanna aproach a conversation on a date. Most men (as well as women!) are hopelessly cluesless as to what makes a woman interested in a man when he’s on a date with her. I mean, a guy can have so many good traits that women desire and get attracted to, and most men do in fact have them, but if he doesn’t know how to carry himse… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/07/22 08:52 PM |
| 2 | Women need to give men more chances for a while before ghosting them out forever...Dude. Have to tell you, I think it’s got little to nothing to do with your looks and instead to do with your game. Generally, if they’re on a date with you then you’ve already passed the looks-test. It might be easier for you to blame it on looks, but on the other hand you can actually change so much about your game amd get much better. My comment here about looks was applied to OLD apps. Women don’t care that much about looks irl (it’s waaaay more important on the apps), and if she’s taken time… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/07/22 08:37 PM |
| 1 | Hypothesis: If Tinder and the other OLD apps made a 5 match-at-a-time limitation that would greatly enhance OLD for the majority of users. (And greatly diminish the profit from the apps)Exactly. It’s constructed with gamification. I read that Tinder is the highest grossing app in the world that is not a gaming app. And them I thought, well Tinder is also a gaming app lol. Every match feels like a win. There are some one billion swipes per day globally or something, and the swiping is what generates all the ad revenue for the company. Its design is focused entirely on making you wanna swiiiiipe, not on makkng you wanna chat. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 22/07/22 10:18 AM |

(And greatly diminish the profit from the apps)I hope you’re right. And for me this thing also has to do with one of my fav subjects, ‘masculinity’. The ways in which ‘masculinity’ finds expression varies from culture to culture, but I still think masculinity should be treated as an abstract constant itself. It’s just its expressions that change. For example not crying. That has in most cultures been one agreed upon expression of masculinity, but that has changed to a certain degree (there are still only certain things men can cry about and … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/07/22 06:18 PM |

(And greatly diminish the profit from the apps)It is so fascinating times. As it is now for 35+ ppl here in northern europe and especially here in denmark in the big cities you get the new phenomenon that there are more high earning women who can’t find a partner due to the lack of available high earning men. These women apparantly in general don’t want a man who has a lower education and wage than herself. Likewise, the men in general apparantly also prefer that his woman earns less than him.

| 0 | Women need to give men more chances for a while before ghosting them out forever...Lol sounds about right. However, for women ‘looks’ is not quite the same as for men, I’d argue. Meaning that for men it’s more simply the actual shape of her body, signalling how fit it is for baby making and surviving. While for women a man’s looks is also a signal about his personality traits. And therefore a man’s ‘good looks’ are also very dependant upon how he carries himself with body language and the movements of his facial features as his talks. All these things about his ‘looks’ are con… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/07/22 11:57 PM |

Of course average women don’t just prioritize the polished perfect looking guys, but that’s not what I mean by 8-9 guys.

Similar to a bar where men will go below their league or standards just for a ONS. But this effect is rampant in OLD. Women will find themselves surrounded by men out of their league showing apparant interst in them, something that doesn’t happen to these women irl.

Yes, the algorithm matches somehow using likes, in effect creating ‘leagues’ on tinder. But. Women who are 5-7 will be bumped up to a higher league than they are.

All I’m saying is that my hypothetical proposal could change that somewhat. If you don’t want it changed, then fine. But you’re right and wrong when you say that I’m competing with men out of my league. 8-9 will match with women in a lower league whom they are not genuinely interested in, simply bcuz they can.

This obviously gives normal women anfalse illusion of great options that they focus on, amd then they find out that those guys most of the time are not genuinely interested at all and never were.

Not bcuz it’s just natural for women to act like this on OLD. But in large part bcuz of the design.

It’s the phenomenon that humans generally prefer options, but when presented with many options it actually produces stress and unhappiness.

But this would also mean that she would be incentivized to regard her matches as more valuable, so that before she deleted one she might as well try and see if he was actually bad enough to delete.

There are countless other traits that can subtract from the effect of those two traits, just as there are traots that can add to them and the overall attractiveness. My point is that these two basic traits are the fundamental defining traits for a human male that human females are wired to attract to. Then there are all kinds of other traits.

Women (all else being equal) want their male partner to be stronger than them, they want that feeling, and that dissapears if she feels he needs to be a pleaser for her. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/07/22 01:59 AM |

When you say that ‘actual strongmen don’t look strong to women’, that’s obviously not the case. An overweight man will of course always look stronger than a thin man. There’s a reason the dad bod became a fun popular notion. Just like the overweight ‘bear type’ of man body can be attractive to women as long as it looks strong.

| 1 | Letting down girls that catch feelings but aren't direct about itDepends very much on what your initial frame was from the very first? Just a casual thing from a night out? A ‘normal’ dating thing from a Tinder match (feeling out for romantic partners)? Or a totally open, random frame? I always make it clear very early on, mostly before first hookup, that I’m not one for a committed relationship. If we then proceed and hook up and then start having a fwb thing i’ll talk more about it at pillow talk. That we need to be open about emotions and what I can offer … | /r/seduction | 13/04/22 07:33 PM |
| 2 | Am I a low status man?Emotional connection is a great thing, but I was talking about something a little different: Acting in certain specific ways when talking to women which will be unconscious indicators to her (to her ‘reptile brain’) that you are a man with certain personality traits, and this will in itself generate emotions in her towards you. Meaning that when you exhibit this underlying behavior there are good chances that she will become attracted to you bcuz women in general get attracted to the personality… | /r/seduction | 24/03/22 06:09 PM |
| 6 | Am I a low status man?For some women social and financial status is explicitly important. This pool of women will not be a match for you as a girlfriend (perhaps casual sex, if you learn game). But for other women it’s not important. Generally, what women seek in a man is someone who can make them feel emotionally in a certain way. And you don’t need money or status to make women feel this way. Women are attracted to your personality. When women are attracted to men with social and financial statuts it’s generally bc… | /r/seduction | 24/03/22 11:46 AM |

| 5 | This girl I’m dating seems a bit selfish am I wrong for thinking this?Hahaha dont listen to this shit. Women can lose respect for men in any number of ways, but going down on her is not one of them. If anyone thinks it’s a “submissive act” they’re just immature idiots. What ypu need to do is communicate and be assertive in a respectful manner. There can be a whole list of reasons as to why she won’t bj you and you don’t know which one it is. Maybe she’s just being selfish, but maybe she’s just insecure. Maybe she’s had some bad experience before, maybe she jut doe… | /r/seduction | 22/03/22 01:55 AM |

| 1 | Does anyone else find that they are attached after finally getting some casual sex?Dude, what you’re describing is not casual sex at all. It’s a fling, like you say. Fling has an emotional dimension and you were not just banging casually but doing couple’s things together. And apparantly she went all in! Humans are different and some women can pour out emotional connection and flirt totally uninhibited in a more ‘casual’ way than most women and then just leave it at that, often leaving a trail broken heart guys in their wake. Maybe this is why ur friend warned u to not get att… | /r/seduction | 05/03/22 02:33 PM |

She has never been with a guy who texted really dirty like I’ve showed her, and she loves it, but any suggestions as to how I get her to send dirty pics without me asking her explicitly?Yes, this is what I’ll do. So far I’ve only hinted at it. | /r/seduction | 02/03/22 06:22 PM |

She has never been with a guy who texted really dirty like I’ve showed her, and she loves it, but any suggestions as to how I get her to send dirty pics without me asking her explicitly?Yes, every person has always discovered everything there is to know about their sexuality and this of course applies to everybody in the world cuz there’s no difference btwn ppl. /s I can see how it comes across as patronizing tho, but then you misunderstand me. I can tell you that she in fact doesn’t know her own mind and what she finds sexy. One of the reasons that she likes to be with me is that I’ve shown her new things she likes. And having a conversation about it is fine, but I wanna be su… | /r/seduction | 02/03/22 03:21 PM |

Two things: You gotta be clear with youself what you want from her and then only send vibes from that angle. I mean whether you feel like she could become your girlfriend or whether you’re thinking about a more casual fwb thing. If you prefer a casual thing to begin with and would like sex from the get go, then tell her you’re ‘not running around atm looking for a girlfriend’.

She has never been with a guy who texted really dirty like I’ve showed her, and she loves it, but any suggestions as to how I get her to send dirty pics without me asking her explicitly?Thx, yeah I know what you mean how men and women are different in that department, but that doesn’t mean at all that women generally don’t like to send sexy pics. Lots of women love to send sexy pics to their guy, it gives them a great feeling, and I feel pretty convinced that she also thinks that, but that she’s just not used to it. If I sense that she has anything against it, then that’s that. It’s only sexy for me, if she also thinks it’s sexy. | /r/seduction | 02/03/22 12:55 PM |

She has never been with a guy who texted really dirty like I’ve showed her, and she loves it, but any suggestions as to how I get her to send dirty pics without me asking her explicitly?Yeah, ur right, it’s more of a guy thing. But alot of women also get something out of it, i.e. the feeling that they can make the guy horny with their sexiness. This is in general a huuuge turn on for my new fwb here, so I know that this most likely also extends to pics on the phone. She has send some already, also without me asking, but I think she’s actually afraid to not make them ‘good enough’, that she thinks it needs to be these perfect erotic pics or it wont do the trick, when a simple pi… | /r/seduction | 02/03/22 12:20 PM |

| 4 | When she asks "what are you looking for"This second part is so true. I’ve hooked up with several women who even stated on their profiles that they only look for serious relationships. I write them early on something like “I have to admit, I normally wouldnt swipe on you, cuz I’m only here for fun and dont wanna waste ur time, but there’s just something really fucking sexy about you. Even tho you have two cats!” Very very often they get turned on by the honesty and the crystal clear frame, and it gets them thinking that even tho they’r… | /r/seduction | 02/03/22 11:04 AM |
| 5 | Please provide tips to date older woman. (M25) (F35)Women in their 30’s are generally suckers for complements and they typically crave feeling sexually attractive. So if you can give her the impression that she turns you on, she will likely want to pursue that feeling endlessly. Especially if she has just brokwn up with a bf and could use some validation and some sex, I think. You could have hit the jackpot here. | /r/seduction | 02/03/22 10:53 AM |
| 2 | How to transition from texting about school work to sex?First, turn the convo to be about her, show her you’re curious about her person. If she’s into you she will love talking to you about herself. Ask her a personal question like where she grew up. Then start to tease her a little about something, like stereotyping her, with a wink. Then when you tease her and she likes it and laughs and ‘defends’ herself, throw in affirming comments like “You’re funny:)” or “haha you’re cute!” With this kind of conversation she will know that you’re interested in … | /r/seduction | 18/02/22 06:22 PM |
| 1 | Should you juggle multiple girls?Rotate. But don’t do relationship things with your fwb’s, just make it clear that you only offer casual and that you can also see others. If you have a great casual thing and start to have feelings for a girl just start to treat her like a girlfriend instead of fwb, like taking her out for drinks or dinner, make her feel special and in this way signal that she’s winning you over and that you’re only interested in her. Then she’ll most likely be extremely flattered and perhaps really fall for you… | /r/seduction | 18/02/22 05:52 PM |
| 2 | [deleted by user]You feel disrespected? You are disrespected lol. Her actions that you describe here show clearly and unmistakenly that she doesn’t have feelings for you and she doesn’t respect you. Are you gonna let her use you like this? You need to have self respect and swallow the hard pill now and say goodbye to her and find yourself a new girl. It hurts, but be a man about it, and simping for her now will only make you hurt way more and lose all of your self respect, man. She’s gone. | /r/seduction | 18/02/22 05:07 PM |
