Admit that you know NOTHING

Funny thing is I was reading a book on seduction and realized that I don’t even have the balls to approach a girl am attracted to lol.

imflazh · 2020-07-17T20:36:15+00:00

This. Folks fill their heads with thousands of seduction books and THEORY but when it comes to actually PRACTICE, then it’s though.

DesuApeChan · 2020-07-17T20:45:42+00:00

This is so true for so many things. I really wish people would take time to consider this. Seeing the world and feeling the world are two very different things.

I get your point but I will allways help out the guy who is just starting It is better to go with some knowlegde than to go without any, like for years I have been expierience only, fk books, fk PUAs, and for years I couldn't figure out things like "buyers remorse" and "disqualifying".

Truth of today is that if you just go in any decently-looking woman will chew you up and spit you out.

Just for the sake of your post here is an example:

You talk to a girl you get it going, everything is going great, better than ever, you are thinking I'm killing it. Tomorrow she is ignoring you completely and the guy without knowledge is thinking what the heck? I must have said something wrong, what? Everything was going great, did she just pretend? was I just some entertainment for one night? Someone needs to tell him he gotta be one to slow the things down and stop, that's called buyers remorse.

There is no faking it. You must do the hard work to gain the experience and confidence, before any one will notice. Cheats are obvious.

Let's be real, we all want to know the best pickup line or strategy but in reality it doesn't exist, we overthink it mostly and think its like flying a rocket ship when it's not.

You don't need need another seduction book or too watch more youtube videos on seduction, go say hi and take it from there.

campskills21 · 2020-07-17T23:53:07+00:00

Ask someone on a date, have a simple convo, act normal, ask if you want to go have a smoke/drink at your place after, kiss. I've done it a few hundred times off dating apps, not a big deal, there's really no such thing as seduction, only looks corny when you're trying it, let attraction do the work.

Me starting my white water raft guide training yesterday... You jump into a freezing rapid and all your ~mindfullness exercises~ and ~youtube videos/reading~ go out the f***ing window.

fr0ntsight · 2020-07-18T00:44:32+00:00

This applies to life not just pickups

letsridetoglory · 2020-07-18T06:10:48+00:00

Tue, I use to fall i to this trap, trying to figure out ever scenario in my head and what i would do. Its a waste of time.

buttholeglory · 2020-07-18T01:45:00+00:00

It's true tho.

For example, many pua books I read were about being aloof, now I'm the caring guy that likes to cook and talk about food and hiking with women, I've been getting better results.

It all depends on what y'all are passionate about and finding women with the same interests.

Lord_Augastus · 2020-07-18T01:45:04+00:00

Lol, men WITH expirience still dont know anything about women. Expirience will just give you social skills, the kind you should already be working towards regaedless of intent and gender.

BrexFlexx · 2020-07-18T08:38:58+00:00

This nigga’s spittin’ straight facts

poopooguy613 · 2020-07-17T22:26:57+00:00

Yeah those books mean nothing...

frogpeoplearecoming · 2020-07-18T12:17:55+00:00

It is a pitfall for a lot of guys.

They keep working the problem by reading about it.

This can improve some clueless guys from an incel to a beginner level.

From a beginner to anything else takes experience. You get there sooner if you know more.

Just don't get stuck. Read one good book an go for it. Than a year later read a more advanced book and so on.

slytherclaw87 · 2020-07-18T00:20:32+00:00

You know nothing, Jon Snow.

BukarooJones · 2020-07-18T03:09:21+00:00

That’s why I’m here.

Iam_nameless · 2020-07-18T03:22:41+00:00

Instructions unclear; I approached naked and it did not go well

lowfrec · 2020-07-18T03:47:19+00:00

If I had money I'd give you an award.

rab_al7eetan · 2020-07-18T07:03:05+00:00

I get what you're saying but knowledge and knowing are the same thing.

three29 · 2020-07-18T07:37:51+00:00

This is my experience with starting a business.

BrexFlexx · 2020-07-18T08:48:18+00:00

That’s so true. Seduction is one of those things you have to practice. Theory alone won’t do shit. It just gives you the illusion of knowing how seduction works. The same principle applies to sports. You need do practice and play the game or you will never become good at it. And also, this lack of effective practice is also a reason why our school system sucks.

JimBeamAndCoke2016 · 2020-07-18T09:38:00+00:00

Need to accept that your looks determine a lot of the outcome. Doesn't matter what books you've read, if you don't meet the minimum standards required, it's not going to happen.

Agree with the experience part. Need to get out there to determine the level of girl that you've got a realistic chance of attracting, instead of someone out of your league.

Martinoti · 2020-07-18T11:30:44+00:00

I think this is the paradox many of us live in. We realize we know nothing, so we read on how these things go, and try to create some sort of security for ourselves on what is supposed to happen when we do approach.

Still means that we just need to do though...

I do

Javares · 2020-07-18T13:55:36+00:00

I remember my first approaches. I thought I'd be the greatest since I naturally attract girls. But this would be me on offense this time around, couldn't be that hard. Little did I know that my pride was too much to continue talking to a girl after she showed a hint of disinterest. She would give me the wrong look or her friend would steal her attention, and I would walk away. I had zero patience. I was approaching from a domineering perspective and that fucked me over. I was results oriented whereas a process that generated fun was the better bet. Also learning how to get a whole group comfortable was a tough one. My social skills were good around friends, not strangers. Also, usurping values from other males in the group was the easiest way to gain respect. Without revealing nothing of myself I become head honcho, I thought that was really cool. Anyways the butterflies or balls you need to approach? Just realize no one gives a damn or these people are just like me or these people are beneath me. For one, all of these require confidence, the last requires a little bit of a superiority complex. Just stop thinking after making a decision and your legs should take you close enough to where running away would be ridiculous.
