Yeah, you dont want to do that, you will alienate yourself, join a club or have friends introduce you. Closed emviornments like school, social circle is only way bro.

How do you effectively cultivate a good social circle? How do you go from meh to popular?
[–]Amplifyre1996 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Join A LOT of clubs and have friends introduce you to guys and girls and become a cool guy that a lot of ppl know.

High school game is all about social status. But work on yourself now until you graduate and build the foundation to a super charged version of yourself

[–]Gab_the_Great 1 point2 points3 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Be a super social guy, invite people to everything, give value, be funny, bring alcohol/drugs/music, have a bold, assertive personality.
Be the AMOG in every group your a part of.

ya that's my problem I learned that late and now I'm branded as weird or whatever. Am i fucked until college? or is there any way around this.

Highschool cold approach is what you make it. I would suggest you grab a wing who has similar interests as you progresssing into the game and burn the boats together. Fuck the reputation and status, people are always going to hate when you stray away from groupthink and normal behavior. Game is about your personal journey into becoming more attractive . You're going to have to mess up and learn from your mistakes. Do take note though to calibrate yourself based on your sticking points. Feel free to pm any questions i did cold approach senior year in HS was a blast of fun.
Dude dont mislead him, we as PUA dont care what ppl think BUT we should care how we are making them FEEL.
How do I cultivate social popularity? Thats a sticking point of mine.

Wait until college, thats what i did, now i have MANY social circles with some sexy babes!! Lol
how did you do that?
[–]Amplifyre1996 -1 points0 points1 point 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I just approached guys instead of girls, the guys WILL introduce you to girls bro
[–]GLOOTS_OF_PEACE 1 point2 points3 points 10 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
lol that's not called cold approach if you know them already
I dont know them well. Regardless how am I supposed to talk to them?
[–]GLOOTS_OF_PEACE 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
just like a normal person. Just say 'hi how's it going?' or ask about their class something. There isn't much you can do, it's not like you can escalate and make out at school can you? That stuff is exciting but can bring tough situations especially if you're not prepared for it. Leave that for outside of school, you have enough to concern yourself with at school

Warning- this is the same as normal pickup. A few think youre retarded but most find you a little charming
Forget this 'value' bullshit. If you know who you are and you've got shit going in your life you're probably the most interesting kid around, everyone is attracted to that. Guitar, sport, acting, writing, whatevs you're passionate about, be your own dude FIRST and know who you are. Combine that with not judging chicks sexualuality, leading and all the other stuff here and boom
Forget having to be 'top of the social ladder', literally walk up to anyone and say anything like "i thought you looked cool" sit down and talk. If you truly know you're cool, and you actually are cool you'll clean up. Kids are bored, you're definitely the most interesting thing that happened all month. I've tried, tested it btw, it works. Combine that with your intention and all that.
Don't stop there, enjoy being social and make small talk in corridors, with teachers, literally everyone.
Awesome thread, takes me back to my days in high school. I acted as a foreigner, animals weird stuff just to fuck with them. Some thought i was retarded, most found it charming. Definately helped when in needed to make friends at a new school too
aw fuck dude. This is fantastic advice. I wish someone said this to me earlier. I've tried all the bs PUA shit, routines, etc. Built a rep for being a wierdo. Kinda hard to shake but Fuck aha. I'm gonna do this. Thanks dude

Channel your weirdness into charming awesomeness

Ok so to put things in perspective I am now 2 years out of high school and the majority of my relationships with girls at that time was based off of social circumstance i.e. i was an older/self proclaimed attractive guy on the track team and the cute younger girls would look at me and then from there it was all about having the balls to talk to them. This isn't really satisfying though when you look at the all the 10s that are your age and you are dating a 7 that is younger. Anyway, It wasn't until the summer after my senior year that i got into pickup and i've come a long way. but my friend in high school was a "natural" SO good. He had 0 approach anxiety and didn't give a shit about what people thought. Remember that pickup is all about self amusement. My friend did burn a lot of bridges with the male population but it was only because he got hella bitches. And he wasn't traditionally good looking either, he had big ears that stuck out the side of his head like dumbo, bushy eyebrows that always were on the brink of being one, and he kept shaving his hair really short which emphasized these features. but he pulled anyway. Looking back and analyzing my friend it is easy to see that getting girls in high school is literally all about status. Make a list of all of the reasons you add value to any prospective group i.e. you are funny, goal oriented, athletic, musical, artistic, e.t.c. and figure out how you can use your value to add to a 10s reputation as a high school student. Find your weak points, like style/haircut/hygiene, typical shit that is easily taken care of but rarely put into action. I used to wear stripes with plaid and shit until a girl made me feel really stupid by calling me out in front of the whole class and then i started reading fashion blogs and shit. With highschool you will never have anonymity but you can climb the social ladder by effectively evaluating what you bring to the table and by capitalizing on your strengths and making your weak points stronger. Try to go to social gatherings in your school too such as parties, football games, dances and mingling there. An easy line could be "hey aren't you in my math class" or "You know, I'm such an asshole. i've been going to school with you for a long time and i still don't know your name. haha" or "Don't take this the wrong way but I noticed you wearing band t shirt tv show shirt any generic graphic t shirt and i fucking love that shit" some bullshit like that. ALSO if you have connections to kids at other school that gives you perceived higher value. If you say something like "oh yeah I was at a other local high school party and the kids over there are something else" it will make you look as though you have a lot of friends and whether you actually do or not as far as being in high school goes it is all about faking it until you make it...into her pants. ALSO a good way to start to climb the social ladder is by slowly making your way into higher value friend groups. You probably know at least one kid on the verge of being popular, stick with him and then slowly integrate yourself into that group. I'm not saying abandon your friends or change who you are but it doesn't hurt to be cool with the cool kids. but also be cool with other groups too, make as many friends as possible, smile, wave and say what's up to people as you walk down the hall. I remember there was this one really popular football player that used to say hi to be and smile this big ass smile whenever he saw me and it made me feel good, be that guy to other people, make other people want to be around you. and read "How to Win Friends and Influence People" by Dale Carnegie
How do I make friends with the guys if they think I'm a "loser"?

you have to find a way to earn their respect. high school guys are more or less focused on masculine values as far as respect goes. so if you can charm them by learning topics they're interested in and talking about it with them you'll be straight. For instance "did you see the game last night?" then talk about the game. Or say "holy shit have you seen this video?" and show them a viral twitter video. again it's all about how you can add value to their group. You have to make yourself a person not only they want to hang with but everybody does. If you wanted to earn my respect you have to be funny and interesting. I like when people can make me laugh but can also be real when need be. People that try to hard to make people laugh or like them are usually casted out. Try to casually drop hints that you are cool. but don't oversell it, remember that as long as you believe you are an asset, you are man. you have to game the guys essentially.
