I'm fairly new to TRP, I come from the PUA side and have been reading intensively about TRP fundamentals in the past weeks. I've received PUA advice in the past, but don't trust it anymore, that's why I'm turning to you.

​

I started doing daygame last year, so far is been nothing but a collection of rejections. I've done 600+ approaches in the past 3-4 months and 1500+ approaches since last August.

Honestly, I don't mind the rejections, it's just the 0% success rate that makes me lose hope.

Should I just stop doing it? does it even work if you are not handsome?

​

Here is a list of my characteristics (preempting some of what I think would be the usual replies "just go to the gym bro"):

- I lift 5 days a week and eat properly

- My fashion is on point (I always get compliments)

- I have good body language and make strong eye contact

- My career is successful (I'm finishing my PhD this year)

- I have other interests: I dance (latin, jazz, etc) thrice a week, I'm learning to play an instrument, started to learn my 5th language, and read as much as I can

- Demographics: I'm not good looking, 5'9'' tall, brown, living in NYC.
