Dealing with AMOGS

from my experience, the best way to deal with amog's is to be the peacekeeper. getting confrontational will make you look weak to the girl, not stronger. just smile, either don't acknowledge his insults or insult him back in a fun way, and if shit starts getting serious, just give a chuckle and a playful backhand to his chest or shoulder and say, "yo relax, dude. we're all here to have a good time." the goal with amog's is to either shift the conversation elsewhere or get the girl to bounce somewhere else with you. i know it's rough out there, op. i've had several issues in the past where i'm clearly on a date with a girl and these wannabe pua rookies try to game her right in front of me. shit is infuriatingly rude, but you have to keep frame about the whole thing.

Search on TRP for AMOG and you will find some good posts. For example, after a guy says something trying to insult you then look him in the eye for a couple seconds and say:

"I'm waiting for you to finish your joke or is that it"

Laugh it off and have fun with it.

Here is a good clip to illustrate holding frame while being ridiculed publicly. The head guy is mad at first but he breaks the tension by just laughing it off and playing it like it's a roast. And everyone relaxes.

It's not the greatest example for a date, but considering the big picture, this is how you handle verbal attacks.
