I'm serious. It's not only good, it's also far more realistic than any other. A lot of times, when (usually) a woman on this forum gives this advice, she's met with rolling eyes and a few of the usual rebuttals like:

"Touching grass leads to Red Pill"

Nonsense. It leads to Red Pill only if you assume you know everything about people around you. Furthermore, things that will help you while using RP aren't unique to it so you can pretty much abandon it

"Dating apps give me experience xyz"

Dating apps are notorious for how rubbish they are for men. I made a post about simulation of the dating apps, to not get too deep into I'll just say this: You'll have infinitely easier time doing cold approaches than OLD unless you're 10/10 real life Zeus.

I'm sure there are other rebuttals but they are equally as bad.

So yeah, CMV
