My favorite character in Art of Seduction is Andy Warhol: the “natural-born loser” who ends up making it big by giving in to his natural passivity and ignoring people.

There is a particularly beautiful blonde (at least an HB 9 or 10) whom I run into once every several months. Back in early spring, she hugged me a VERY long time out of the blue just before I took my leave in a tapas lounge. Then about two months ago, she scratched my shoulder as she left the bar with whom appeared to be a date, while I sat next to my married HB 6.5. My point is, I seem to have persistent IOI’s from a girl with whom I have put zero effort into attracting (outside the diligent work I apply to my passive fundamentals: lean-muscular physique, long hair with highlights, well dressed).

Often in general, I will sit deliberately alone in a nice bar, dressed to the nines and totally wrapped in my iPhone (praise be to technology these days!). Sooner or later an HB 7 or so approaches me with a submissive, mischevous look on her face and says something like, “hey guy, you having a good night??” Perhaps genetically good looks, tight fundamentals, and a solid understanding of female psychology can make up for lack of game.

I find that when I start talking, my mouth tends to run amuck… anti-seductive speech comes out (at least in my opinion: I get talky and goofy). When I focus on being more my true introverted self, the air of mystery seems to attract beautiful women’s attention (and affection) quite regularly. Perhaps I could be getting laid more frequently if I went about approaching directly, but I really like knowing a woman is just that into me before I escalate.
