I've been studying in the Netherlands as an international, and I've been seriously studying pickup for a year and a half. I've had quite a bit of interaction with Dutch girls, and not only with internationals, as seems to be common around here (for expats to stay in bubbles).

I've opened hundreds of girls so far, mostly night game. But I just can't help but to compare the "dating culture" and the natural friendliness of girls around here to the US, especially California. I mean, I see unedited footage of daygame in California from various people with some having worse game than me, but the threshold for girls to be interested and 'play along' with flirting and having a good time seems to be very different.

One of my friends currently studies in California, and even though he's a shy guy who would never open by himself, (in the first couple of months of the academic year) he's had multiple opportunities where girls blatantly flirted with him and were open to dating.

I have growing evidence from my approaches that the majority of college girls around here love to be in long term relationships(yes I know it's much more beneficial for a 20s something girl to choose to be in a long term mono). It may sound like girls are bullshitting you when they say they have a boyfriend, but when they put on a sad face, give you their facebook and hesitantly say they have a boyfriend, and you can go online and see they've been dating for 2 years, the only logical explanation is that (frustratingly)many of them are in loving relationships and you're at the right place at the wrong time.

Nowadays rather than applying american natural game, I'm trying to understand what's going around here. Girls commonly say they've had between 24 hours to a couple of weeks of being single before going into another relationship.

Nobody in my university department knows game, many of the native Dutch guys that I meet say they've either had a couple of girlfriends or were virgins.

The online presence of Dutch seduction is very limited, I'm not even talking about the ones in English language.

Even searching subreddits specifically for the Netherlands, you only get a few topics, mostly people asking if anyone is out there, or failed attempts.

Does anyone have firsthand experience in this topic or anything to add in value?
