meh, it's human nature to want to share our accomplishments with friends/colleagues

I don't tell my friends about every single girl but I enjoy telling them about what I did and how I did it.

I think the author doesn't get enough girls.

Some here might disagree and some might agree.

Girls brag about guys..why cant I?

I see. Most guys get into pick up, because they want the validation that they get from being a guy who can pick up chicks. But the real result of the seduction community is to become a confident, attractive person. One who doesn't need other's people validation.

Great article Rob, thanks for posting. Tho I somewhay disagree - I love women, but I've learned to enjoy the process as well, and don't think is anything wrong with that. People can take it too far, but I think enjoying the whole process (including post-game analysis) can be a healthy thing.

It wasn't really explicitly mentioned, but I think there's an important message hidden in these paragraphs screaming to be heard. One of the things you need if you want to take your game to the next level is a genuine love for women, and I'm talking about women in general, not like that time you had oneitis in high school. This doesn't have to be as sexual objects or emotional vessels, and everyone has their own reasons for loving women, but once you have a true love for women, you don't need any other motivation.

Hello, Rob. I've read a lot of your stuff. At first I though it was great - here's this fresh voice in the PUA community with a different perspective on everything. But as I read more, your writings left a sour taste in my mouth.

This article is allright, but it confused me at first. I got into PUA because I was no good with women and wanted to be good with women. That's pretty much all it's ever been and hopefully ever will be. I'm not quite at the point where I'm getting multiple same night lays, so maybe the whole "PUA for the sake of PUA" hasn't hit me yet. I don't know.

What I can say is my ultimate goal is to be a strong, confident, attractive person, with a bit of bragging on the side. It would be awesome if I didn't feel the need for validation from my peers, but I am only human, and we are only social animals. And I see absolutely nothing wrong with that.

I find there is so many bullshit explanations about why guys are into pickup as if it's a bad thing to do things step by step that you just didn't learn the steps to when you were a teenager.

I got into pickup because my heart got broken really badly when my gf ditched my ass after three years of LTR. It had nothing to do with bragging to anyone, nothing to do with competition, I just wanted answers as to why I got discarded and if there was a way to get her back.

Well in the end, I did get her back. In the sack, at least. It was fucking excellent. But by then, she had created a monster and I was not happy with granting her sovereignty over me with one-itis.

Now I get to have my cake and eat it [out?]. A good relationship with her but otherwise a free agent to fornicate with many more of natures wild young things.
