Do whatever you enjoy doing.
PUAs who make ridiculous demands like, "Never drink in the field" are usually well-intentioned, but it's counter-productive.
Doowutchalike.
Just keep in mind getting too drunk WILL hurt your game.

Allright, thanks.

I'm in college so I'm basically an alcoholic. I drink often, but I sarge more often than I drink, if that answers your question.
If you can't handle it, I certainly don't recommend it. I've been successful regardless of whether I was sober or utterly incoherent, but the drunker you get, the more likely you are to look like a drunk idiot.
I totally agree that alcohol helps for the most part, because it's one of the main functions of alcohol (lowered inhibitions). But it's definitely not good to use it as a crutch. I drink because it's fun and I have sex because it's fun, so if I can do both, I'm in heaven.

I never do well sober. But a lot of uncalibrated behavior happens when I get too drunk.
Grey area.... Some Mpua's say that one should not drink.

I sarged almost entirely while drunk and out at a bar, but I've recently made it a goal for me to avoid alcohol entirely and have found its much more difficult. I never realized how much I relied on alcohol to overcome my AA.
But I'm dedicated to doing it anyway.
Challenge Accepted.

i drink when i go out, i just like alcohol. but i don't get drunk. Also, i start right away, so its not the alcohol that gives me confidence

I don't go out "sarging", I just go out with my friends and have a good time, which often entails meeting women I'm interested in. I always drink when I go out, although if I am really looking to pick up that night, I take it somewhat easy. I have a large alcohol tolerance, so it's easy to stay relatively sober while keeping pace with women.
I've had plenty of pickups when I was completely smashed, but usually the girl was too which makes it easier obviously.
PSA: don't drink and drive, ever.

Yea, this is also exactly how I operate.
Large alcohol tolerance makes for bad hangovers when your body finally says hey, dicknose, how about some hydration?
But I sometimes do go out specifically to sarge. More-so now that I have an ongoing challenge between my roommate and myself to see who can get the most tail this semester.
She just got out of a longtime relationship so this may be difficult, and knows I usually do pick-up, so this could be disastrous, or just the kick in the ass I've needed since winter started.

I often order a water with my drink and slam the water. Helps immensely to avoid hangovers.

I have a liter bottle full of water that I chug as soon as I get home, follow that up with a large glass of gatorade, then I refill the chug again for throughout the night (wake up to piss, chug some more) and have a second glass of gatorade as soon as I wake up. Able to be up and about and at work in the morning in a pretty decent shape.
I'd slam the water, but I usually have my hands full since I'm the one who always offers to go to the bars to get the drinks (not pay for them myself, just get them) because it gives me an opportunity to pull away to whomever I'm talking to at the moment, and allows to me to pick a new set to open at the bar, while buying multiple drinks helps build social proof. So my hands are usually to fool to buy extra water on top of that

i do, but i dont sit there pounding drinks to loosen up. i generally enjoy drinking and dancing. other drugs and physical activities as well.
sarging hard? know your limits and drink well under them. by the end of the night a buzz will have crept up on you that you weren't expecting. i've had bad nights where i pounded brew as hard as i could and would up sitting on curbs texting myself not to do it again. live and learn/

I never drink. Unless the girl buys me a shot, I don't drink anything except water or tonic and lime, and even that, occaisionally. I usually like keeping hands free for kino.
I do better after a couple drinks, but nothing like the 3 approaches or other ways of getting in state. I also sarge 3 days a week, so to remain productive, I need to stay sober.
[–]jakeinmn 0 points1 point2 points 15 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Three days a week? nice.
[–]afcanonymous 0 points1 point2 points 15 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Nope. I burned out badly for a semester (I'm a grad student), with no results. I was doing all the wrong things (pushing for SNLs, when I should be practicing escalation on dates, other stupid things like not following up on numbers, not working logistics and social circles). Now, I have a better approach to this without burning out: I go out with friends for one night, and sarge the other two.
