pre-selection is arguably the most effective pulling tool. Works long and short term.

Dread game, very effective short term, eventually burns a girl out tho, very emotionally taxing on her, wouldn't recommend for the long term. Good post

[–]xaxr 19 points20 points21 points 12 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Yeah, if you run dread too long, the bitch will just go fucking crazy.

Be creative, stay alpha.

What is dread exactly?

[–][deleted] 16 points17 points18 points 12 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

The potential of you leaving to be with another woman has been said to make your girl work harder to keep you.

Kind of like how people will work harder if they are on "probation" after being told they could be fired if things don't change.

[–]Justus222 2 points3 points4 points 12 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Exactly. It's kind of a kick in the ass for the hamster. Sometimes crazy hamster likes to get complacent and entitled. Dread game counteracts that.

Basically, a feeling of "dread" the girl has because she thinks she may be doing something wrong and slip up and lose you as her bf

"I didn't know he had enough game to pull a model."

  • wow

[–][deleted] 62 points63 points64 points 12 years ago* (3 children) | Copy Link

A couple things that can be pulled from that statement:

  • She knows game works.

  • She believes the level of game a man has determines what he can pull.

  • She believes that men with poor game can't get high quality girls.

  • She feels she can adequately tell what level of game a man has, and what "league" he is in.

But if you were to ask her if she believed any of these statements, she'd scream no and say "Game is bullshit and tricks that don't work with adults. Any man can get any woman, it's all about whether they are compatible or not. Being yourself is the best plan."

This woman, and women in general, are quite red-pill. They know how the world works and how the mating game is played, they just don't want to admit it because to publicly state it would run counter to the female imperative (men acting like chumps and "being themselves") lets them better filter out the unwanted from the wanted.

Just a reminder to the blue pill guys reading this that when push comes to shove she'll admit that red pill views are the truth: don't buy into her otherwise calm reassurances that it's all fake. You're getting played. Women do not have your best interests at heart, they have their own.

I don't feel like I could ever measure up to this girl considering the fact they only broke up because of the logistics of the relationship not because of any real fight or fault in the relationship.

This is really interesting. She's saying she might have been able to get over the relationship if it had ended on bad terms. You might think that means she's insecure and thinks that a good term breakup means he might get back together with her, but I think the real reason she is afraid is because it shows this guy is really high value. She thinks he's out of her league.

The good term breakup is a problem because it shows how out of her league this guy is (or so she thinks). If he had got dumped by the model the new gf would be fine - it means he's not that high value. But since that didn't happen - he willingly broke up with a high value girl on his own terms - she's intimidated by how high value he is.

Good insight.

I have two questions about this. 1. Obviously she has a reason to feel insecure. She was already trying to make herself feel better by assuming the Swedish girl is dumber than her which failed, so is there any way to avoid ruining the relationship with her insecurity or should she just accept being some sort of rebound? 2. Why would a very high value male decide to have a long term relationship with a woman if she's not as good as he can get?

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points7 points 12 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

so is there any way to avoid ruining the relationship with her insecurity or should she just accept being some sort of rebound

Add in some beta traits. Assure her he cares about her, talk to her about his feelings for her, buy her flowers once or twice. You can be definitely be too alpha when it comes to long term relationships.

On the other hand 95% of guys here are too beta, or aren't interested in long-term relationships right now, so that's why we say "be more alpha." For the rare guy who is into LTRs and is super high SMV, he needs to beta it up a bit.

[–]Pink_acetaminophen 2 points3 points4 points 12 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

Those are things the boyfriend can do that are nice but I was thinking about the things that the girl should do. For example her trying to compare herself as better than the ex and failing was her attempt to make herself feel better without any real effort. If she were to put effort into making herself feel better then maybe she would work out more or do special things for the boyfriend. I think theres a different type of jealousy if you compare yourself to an ex than being jealous when your partner is acting supicious. I'm not sure if I'm wording everything right but I think that if she has potentially relationship ruining insecurity based on comparing to an ex it's her responsibility to solve the insecurity because she will be the one to ruin the relationship. What is the appropriate way to resolve that issue if it is possible?

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points5 points 12 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

That's on her end. Nothing you can do about that.

[–]realniggasstandup[S] 14 points15 points16 points 12 years ago (8 children) | Copy Link

This is why demonstrating higher value is important for a man; toss away the lesbian/feminazi bullshit of equal partners and understand that if you want a more satisfying relationship, you're going to have to value yourself more than you value her.

Now to be honest, the guy sounds like a chump for trying to comfort her by taking down pictures, letting her see the conversations, etc., but the powerful effects of dread game + pre-selection outweigh his weakness, and I'm not sure if he's inadvertently or intentionally using these techniques. The girl is certainly feeling inadequate now and so she'll definitely work towards pleasing him more.

I don't usually recommend having a facebook/instagram, but they can be a beneficial tool to employ these techniques since one can easily access pictures through them. My recommendation is take several pictures of yourself with several good looking women and keep them within your girls' views. YOu don't even have to know the girls -- I saw my nigga use this technique on a HB7: he took out his iphone, approached a random chick waiting for the bus, and asked to take a selfie. The bitch was flattered (obviously), and it's a good conversation starter in general.

The guy is unintentionally lowering his value.

A mix of beta and alpha is the ideal for a long term relationship. You can blow yourself out if she thinks you are way out of her league and she'll never be able to get you to commit. 95% of guys are too beta so we say "be more alpha, it will improve your life" and that's true, but for too alpha guys they need to beta it down a bit.

There's a line you want to dance on where she knows you could get high quality women at the drop of a hat, but you are choosing not to because you have chosen her. That's dread game: she knows you have options (which keeps her loyal and wanting to please you), but she also knows you are choosing her (which keeps her from going nuts and imploding). That way you can both work to please each other and have a mutually beneficial long term relationship, without her losing attraction for you trying to please her (a beta trait).

To do this of course you have to actually have options and she has to know it. A lot of dweebs here get confused and say to themselves "I have options" and then fail because they don't actually have the options they think they do. You have to prove it. This guy did so by having a previous relationship with a really high value girl and pics of it everywhere.

This was actually a huge problem for me in Ukraine. The women would just project entirely too much awesome sauce onto me and for them choosing wrong has much higher consequences. I'm in California now and thinking about it now I like Polish women more because I bring just the right amount of qualities to the table without overwhelming them.

Him reassuring her has obviously not left her fully content. She is still online worried about what's going on. No harm done. ALPHA ALL THE THINGS is not always the answer.
