“She still wants you, but she wants to be sure she doesn't make an idiot of herself by chasing a man she has no chance with.”

After getting some experience and re-reading some sidebar material, what I used to think was a shit test was a comfort test.

Two particular cases I can recall happened last year with 2 plates girl A& girl B. Both said something along the lines “I’m not some girl you just fuck” my response was to just ignore it and smirk. On top of that I was also hit with more comfort text via text after being too aloof, not reciprocating and generally not investing at all. They read something like “ hey I don’t know what you think of me yada yada if you don’t want to take it further I understand but I’d love to maybe get coffee or something yada yada”.

I was so disgusted by beta behavior and how woman respond to it that my only concerned was to be as alpha as possible. I didn’t even recognize these comfort test and the plates broke as a result.

Now that I’m beginning to internalize some game theory and my frame/confidence is stronger then it ever was, I’ve recognized my pitfalls.

However, I still don’t know how to maintain the higher quality plates without coming off like a bitch. The girls that usually stick around have boyfriends already or know that they have no chance at being my girlfriend bc of the SMV difference and they’re just happy to be my fuck toy.

I’ve observed my friend, who’s been spinning the same plates for years on and off, give off the illusion of a potential LTR. It works for him. I don’t know how he does it without giving up frame. On second thought it’s not even an illusion he generally is a girlfriend guy.

How do I maintain the illusion that I’m open to an LTR (maybe one day) even though I’m not currently interested in that. I know all plates are meant to be broken but mine break too quickly and I genuinely believe it’s my aloofness disinterest, lack of investment/comfort and insecurity of coming off beta that’s causing them to break prematurely. How do I make her feel comfortable enough to continue the chase, even if it’s only a little while longer without giving up frame and looking beta?

Thanks fellas!
