After several years of shyness and failure, I read the an awesome book, the game. It turned my life around and helped me a lot. I was wondering if any of you...

OK firstly I find it inauthentic. It just feels like I am following a rigid structure instead of having a natural conversation. I am on about the structure itself, not routines. Some routines and patterns, I do enjoy using. Just for the sake of using. For example "Strawberry Fields", I find that a fun game to play. But the rigidness of Misery Method, just feels forced to me and I feel like a robot following a script.

That said..... If you are a complete noob to this. For a while, I would say it is good for getting over Approach Anxiety.

Viewing women as targets..... just nope, I am not pedestalizing women or making them some sort of trophy that I have to "Game" to win over with my higher value. Nope, women are just people like us, some short, some tall, some attractive, some not so, some slim, some large. That's it, if you view women as just women, instead of targets, its so much easier.

Having to "build attraction". Like what the fuck. Work on your inner game bro, If you do not actually believe you are attractive and worthy of connection with women, you are never going to get anywhere. This is one of my major gripes with MM. This is an inner game issue, advocating a method that implies that you are a worthless piece of shit until you have "built attraction" is not a good belief to have in the long run. Yeah sure, if you like the Misery Method and find it works, cool, but seriously work on your inner game and just go through the method with your DHV stories, but accept you are attractive and don't need to "build attraction".

DHV stories..... On a personal note and again this is one my gripes (for me specifically), I prefer to just let my interest and curiosity in women do the work. Like, I want to find out about them. Any feedback they give, is information I can use. So telling stories about me, to "Raise my value" and making sure I don't "Lower my value", is not authentic to me at all. To me that sounds too in my head. I would rather ask them about them, be totally present in the moment and comment if they show a strong reaction. Like does she respond to my questions by blushing, does she wriggle her nose, does she look embarrassed, I will point this shit out (which shows I am paying attention to her) and tease her over it. So yeah, just talking about me me me me, does not work for me.

Again the structure.... if a woman wants to fuck you, its just a matter of logistics. No point following this Misery Method structure which will become stuck in your head.

Openers.... Yeah I have used opinion openers I will openly admit. However, I found once I got used to approaching women, they became a hindrance. Again, it just seems inauthentic, to always need an opinion on something. What if I don't want a god damn opinion. But again... if your a noob, this is a good way of getting over AA. But the opener isn't really that important. Its the delivery that matters. "You have the sexiest............. elbows I have ever seen", can be more effective than "Quick question guys, before I find my mates. We were discussing some shit. And I want your opinion on some shit". However.... I do believe in body rocking and false take aways. Like there is some merit to Mysterys teachings, don't get me wrong.

Attraction, comfort, lust, etc....... These are all emotions. If a woman has experienced them before (I acknowledge some women are emotionally dead inside), they can experience them again. Again, this is by asking interesting questions and having a genuine curiosity, rather than telling stories about my supreme higher value. Or I will just use embedded stories and ask her how that makes her feel.

Pre Sarge..... Zero, fuck all mention of pre-sarge rituals/Drills. What if I was to say Game starts before you even leave your door.

Post Sarge.... Zero, fuck all mention of how to actually learn from your experiences in field. How to not ruminate on rejections. How to focus on what you did well as opposed to beating yourself up over what you could of done differently.

Anyway.... there is stuff I do agree with by Mystery.

Group theory...... I fully agree with that the friends have to like you as well. And its about being interested in the group, not focusing your attention on one woman and ignoring the rest. (No, I am not going to use the word "Target").

Hoop theory...... I only encountered women throwing hoops at me when I was just using stories and talking only about myself. Once I started showing a genuine interest and curiosity in women, this BS stopped. However it can happen.

Body Language.... A lot of Mysterys videos do cover body language, which I do agree with.

The Ghost and The Flame...... This inner game nugget found in "Revalation". I love it.

My final point is, whatever my views on the Misery Method, I do have to give Mystery some respect. He went out and figured out all this shit on his own. So respect to him for that.

Anyway, most of my "Game" is influenced by Ross Jeffries and Hypnotica ("Rasputin" in "The Game") if this is not obvious from what I have written.
