Because while most advice comes from a place of success, it's usually personal. The best advice sadly, is usually general advice. Anything too specific(from what I've read on here) seems to be personally applied to that person's strengths or epiphanies.
I'm about to unsubscribe from /r/seduction because most of the advice is hurting, and many of the posts about people's progress is hurting. It's all too superficial and doesn't translate well to real world results for most.
The best absolute general advice is try, fail, learn, adapt, repeat... Like anything.

Your expectations for advice are too high. I can advise you what college courses to take, won't make you a doctor.....won't even help you get out of the first semester. It could be great advice though.

Haha Did you read the post? What I mean is most of the advice doesn´t go on the right direction
[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
I did, a lot of it was bullshit.
Even advice in the "right direction" has no bearing on actual outcome in the way that most people want it to.
Dating has too many intangibles for generic advice to be all that successful.

I mean, I can go to the gym and do what my coach says but not outcome as I want in my fitness. That doesn´t mean I am in the right direction, it´s always a process. Dating has too many intangibles as you say but many of them are trying to compensate that feeling of disminuation with the opposite sex.
Another importan thing is the values which you pursue other people will determinate the type of relationships you end up with. If you play games and hides your intentions to attract other people you will finish with people who play games and hide their intentions. This was a concept I learn with Mark Manson.

Damn this is probably one of if not the most interesting article I've read on this sub.
Thanks for sharing, this goes much deeper than any concept of modern dating and seduction.
I've always believed in the importance of going back to understand the bigger picture. How everything was conceptualized and evolved to where it is today.
Wish there was a section for sources and suggested further reading that's not focused too much around picking up chicks.
Have you read the book?
[–]gmuhlenberg 1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
Thanks, I appreciate! I don´t know which books are you talking about but you can found some of my free ebooks on amazon. People like: "10 attractive habits: Or at least I gurantee that you will not get worse"
[–]ReighIB 0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Oh, you're the author! My apologies.
I did a quick scan of your table of content, prologue, intro and whatever else amazon let me preview and I really like how you put most of the focus on improving yourself through intraspection means. I think that is very cool and the application extends beyond just seduction.
Ill buy it in my kindle after I finished reading the books that Im reading because I have a bad habit of downloading too many books without finishing the ones I have first lol
Couple questions
1) I see that you did your studies in Argentina. During your research, did you consider the difference in perception of romance, seduction and love in various cultures or did you mostly focus on one or few cultures? For example Eastern Asia has a very different view on the concept on romance, seduction and love than latin america, southern europe, western europe, middle east, south asia, etc.
I haven't read the whole book but did you find your results to have some kind of global consistencies? Or do the method and approach differ depending on your location and your culture?
2) Do you plan on writing a book that extends from the article you've posted? Your 95% dating advise fails reminded me of how Bruce Lee said 95% of martial arts taught are complete BS, the 4% barely knows and the remaining 1% is not known to the public or are not accessible by ordinary people. The reason being was that the main reason why Martial Arts was created has become somewhat obsolete, like the practice of marriage, and it's being romanticized to target people who is fascinated by Martial Arts to make some money.
Bruce made an important remark to always question what you're being taught because everything you're being taught should have a reason and that reason can be traced back to it's origins, but most have forgotten that origin.
I would love it if you wrote a book going back to the root of seduction and how everything came to be and why certain things are taught the way they are.
3) What are your thoughts on Cleopatra and seduction?
4) Kind of unrelated but are you an avid philosophical reader? I've been trying to read Beyond Good and Evil by Friedrich Nietzsche but I don't know which edition has the most accurate translation. I've read it like two times and I like to think I understand his main points but I have a feeling some things are lost in translation. I would like to hear your thoughts on this, if you have one that is.
Sorry for the long list of questions :P but I find your work VERY fascinating. I am planning to buy your book and read it front to back. Do you take questions from readers? I would love to hear more about your findings, where do you plan to advance from where you are at right now and do you plan on staying in the middle of theory and practicality? Or do you plan on extending your research in more of a theoretical approach through scientific methods or practice practical methods through real world trial and error?
tl;dr: I find your unique approach very interesting and I would love for you to publish more books, on seduction or not, and read them because I just your work to be fascinating.

Haha Yeah I write the book, the main one is "Seduction Simplified", was even recomended by Tai Lopez but feel free to buy it or not.
About your questions I will try to summarize them. I am from Argentina but I been traveling around, also in US. I was living in Baltimore actually. Basically what I talk about on my book is how to build an attractive personality through personal development so doesn´t matter in which country you are. Is true that some countrys are easiers to pick up than others: Like east of europe where in some cities are more women than men for example or Colombia and Venezuela where the women see the man in a high position but the principle is the same, is the behavior what make us more or less atractive.
I don´t really know to much about anthropology, I just cover a little bit on the book but is not the main point of the book. I am working on a book about happiness right now, there is also a free short version call: "Happiness Simplified" if you feel interesting
;)
