David Wygant - Don't fail her first test... Doesn't this go against what we know about game?

He's right that if you put the two of you in a stereotypical date situation, she's going to expect you to play the stereotypical role and will make unfavorable assumptions about you if you don't. From what I understand, the pua answer is to simply not get into such situations.

I think he's making too much of a small thing. First off, it's a mistake to take any woman to an expensive place on the first couple of dates until you're sure things are moving in the right direction. Secondly, as long as it's an inexpensive place, who cares if you pay the bill?

At least in my experience, and given the type of women I'm attracted to, I have much more money than them. I own my business. They're no more than a couple of years out of college. I have no problem paying for a date. I usually just pick up the check and if they offer to share I first decline but if they insist I allow them.

This is small stuff. Not making a big deal out of it is the correct response IMHO. If failing that test kills the relationship it wasn't going anywhere in the first place.

Yes. By framing it so that she is "testing you" and you "don't want to fail her test," you are setting yourself up to be manipulated. You know how you "don't fail" shit tests? You act aloof - like it's not a test. The way to pass a shit test is to not give a shit.

He's referring to day 2 stuff. Also remember he's the anti-thesis of the game and doesn't refer to himself as a PUA. AFC Adam (Adam Lyons) which supposedly was the #1 PUA in the UK before he got married. Now you will see an emerging pattern between AFC Adam similar to Wygant as being a dating coach (7:25) instead.

Bah. I think it was Magic Bullets where Savoy says the basic rule of the tab is "don't let it create an awkwardness". I usually just pay when the check comes without saying anything. If they offer to pay (which they almost always do, since I'm good at selecting decent chicks), I decline with "you can pay for drinks/ice cream/whatever the hell else is next on the agenda". If they insist a second time (it happens), then I let them pay. The important thing is that my demeanor the whole time is that it really isn't an issue for me, either way. If you don't make it a big deal, it won't be one for her.
