I'm not a troll from PUAHate or anything. I've personally benefited from knowledge of seduction. But damn, chasing down a woman on the street seems weird as fuck, even when watching the videos of the pros do it.

It seems super uncomfortable for everyone involved, and it often appears that the woman is staying in the interaction more out of a sense of social obligation (kind of like the suckers I see talking to the people holding clipboards asking for donations). I hear the occasional story of success, but the time investment and psychic exertion seems enormous for such little return.

Has anyone felt similarly, but later completely transformed their opinion on this matter? Please don't think I'm close-minded - I WANT to believe, especially because I'm not the biggest fan of bars and clubs (I don't care for loud music or alcohol).

edit: Just so we're clear, doing a casual conversation style of day game isn't necessarily unnatural. I'm talking about stopping women in the streets and stuff.
