Thanks for sharing this!
It's unfortunate but a lot of coaches in the seduction community are taking a strange machismo stance about this saying things like, "Everyone is a sheep for canceling all these events and such. The virus is not even that dangerous lol."
A lot of guys don't seem to get that it's not all about fear for our own lives as individuals, it's about a social duty to not spread a virus that can harm others.
Good to see something reasonable and well thought out about the virus in this community. I'll be sharing this post with my YouTube subs, email list, etc. And I encourage anyone else who has an audience to do the same.

Ehhh.
I'm a coach and I'm not taking any stances like that, I'm definitely not going to have someone pay me money to go risk their life or endanger themselves and others.
There's plenty of inner game stuff that people can work on, and in my experience and I spent thousands and thousands of hours working on myself, there is a lot of things people can do without going out. A LOT.
Sure that's not going to be much help for the guys that say, "bro, just go out and approach hundreds of women and you'll get laid, bro." But for the rest of us, the people who are realists, and actually want to learn how to improve, doing a lot of inner game work is absolutely super helpful.
There are plenty of books, materials, I mean you could literally spend the next two months or three months in your house, and learn new lines, routines, philosophies, attitudes, self-help tricks and tactics and techniques and ways to improve your mindset, and you don't have to leave your house.
Yes, in the long run that's something that I, as a coach, and a lot of schools of thought will frown upon if you do too much, but if there's no other choice, it's okay, but then when thing's clear up and calm down get back out there and start practicing the things that you've learned.
It does kind of suck maybe for the guys who haven't had a lot of experience and are still feeling that desperation to get out there and get sexually active, but, maybe this is a small silver lining in the clouds, but no one else is going out right now if they're responsible and getting laid either.
Change is the only constant thing in the universe, and the best thing we can do right now to become better people, more seductive and attractive people, is to naturally feel how we can be someone who benefits and gives hope, and support, to our neighbors, friends, family, just random people, as a way to help build a better world. That's attractive!!
In other news a joke I saw on fb that might have an element of truth to it...
Written by a woman, shared by another woman:
"We out here looking at dudes different Now. Like I wonder if he can hunt? Can this guy build a fire🔥 How is he with hand to hand combat? (Ht)QuarrantineMusings"

I guess the trendof being a hipster, beta male, simp loser, and having women being attracted to that, is going to go out the window... Biology wins again. 😂😂😂
Keep moving forward...

Bro, it's all about building acceptance and building momentum. For now the only possibility we got is train our mind and focus on our Inner Game so that we can skyrocket once this is all over. We have to accept that we will start with zero momentum when the lockdown is over but in the course of one or two weeks with consistency and discipline Game Skills will come back

What did you mean by this? What was going on?
Breaking through some personal barrier? Or making a particular personal connection with a particular person?
[–]shred805 8 points9 points10 points 6 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
A personal barrier, approach anxiety. Gonna be a while before I can approach again and I hope I don't fall behind

Maybe read some books :) not just PUA books but other books. Brief history of time is my recommended! Impress the women with how smart you got over the outbreak. Not what netflix shows you watched....

So I shouldn't be seductively washing girls' hands right now?
[–]SerMyronGaines 11 points12 points13 points 6 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link
Also might be a good time to focus on existing girls in your rotation instead of trying to get new ones. How are these girls you're already dating holding up? Are they ok, worried, needing comfort etc?
[–]EternalJourney 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
True brother, IMO there is not much sense in trying to build smth with someone new right now. Game dynamics dont work rn since the physical component is non-existing.
[–]misterjoo 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Do you meet the girls when you know they don't have covid?

No, lockdown rules here means I can't

Finally. It's crazy how this needs to be said, it should be common sense! Good job admin

James Tusk has been quashing COVID discussion in the WhatsApp groups he admin's - and not in a "it's settled science, stop debating it" way.
What's the significance of someone who's not a scientist, acting like an authority on science and apparently acting as if the science isn't settled?

Man, this fucking sucks :( Just when I started to climb out of my depression, and dating, approaching people. I really don't want to go back. Next few months will be lonely hard time.
[–]Moderatorrecyclablebanthas 2 points3 points4 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Stay connected with whoever you can among those you've already made a good connection with. Your normal friends or those you are dating currently could qualify.
It's not going to be easy. But if you've gotten there before, it'll be there when this blows over.

Thank you for this! I'm trying to use it as a chance to improve myself. Trying to fix my diet and do some weight lifting (I own weights). I'm hoping that in 3-6 months the changes I've undertaken will help me succeed more with women and in socializing generally. Low key it's a real silver lining to have so much time to better myself.

There’s some evidence that this virus is causing heart issues in people too, even people with no problems prior to getting it, which is fucking terrifying to me
[–]Moderatorrecyclablebanthas 1 point2 points3 points 6 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
....even people with no problems prior to getting it, which is fucking terrifying to me
I saw one article about former lacrosse player in fit condition dying from this.
But here's the thing: we know one of the risk factors is metabolic syndrome (high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, etc.)
Aside from the case of the one lacrosse player, a lot of the stories or posts I've seen about "healthy" people having severe cases of this or dying from it, have shown pictures or videos of obese or out of shape people.
There's a lot of white noise on this issue. That doesn't mean you shouldn't be careful. But it's perhaps too much, if you're reaching the level of being terrified.
It is a good time to take stock of your lifestyle and habits, imo. Exercise is generally a good thing, and eating refined sugars and the like, that are prevalent in the American diet, is a good thing to avoid, especially now under shelter in orders.
[–]Deez05 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Oh I’m not out of shape at all. But are you not somewhat afraid of potentially ending up on a ventilator and dying lol
[–]Moderatorrecyclablebanthas 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Oh I’m not out of shape at all.
No one said you were.
I said it's a good time for you (or for anyone really) to keep an eye on what they're eating, especially when one is stuck in quarantine living a sedentary lifestyle.
But are you not somewhat afraid of potentially ending up on a ventilator and dying lol
Of course no one wants that.
And who knows what the future holds. Of course it's a risk.
And while I'm certainly taking it seriously and avoiding exposure anyway that I can, the far greater risk I see, is too many people getting sick all at once, taking up hospital beds and ventilators, leaving none for anyone else, regardless of what they need it for. Hospital collapse should concern everyone.
Just give the girl her 2 meter space, show empathy and calibrate accordingly.
In case it wasn't clear, if you look at the verbiage in the post, it doesn't outright say you shouldn't approach, it says it's not time for business as usual, like rapid fire approaching, going for your 100 approaches, or some other thing like that.
There's actually a pretty good video floating around out there of a guy in Canada who decided to go out and meet people while wearing a containment suit.
It was pretty hilarious and he was following more or less what you're talking about.
[–]SnooSketches6124 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Exactly! Only another 6 months to a year to go (hopefully) without Mass approaching and sex is not gonna kill any of you guys unless you are sex maniacs.
Just focus on learning me skills and exercising/eating well/getting buff.
Dating apps are pointless at the moment until this is all over.
[–][deleted] 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Tip n1: Approach with a mask so you can cover your face if you are afraid of showing yourself. Also it makes you mysterious. LMAO

I've always been sort of a recluse in my life. My fundamentals are good though, and people from my social circle know.
Do you think I should still focus on self-improvement, even if it has been a lifelong obsession to me?
Or is it better to spend more time socializing, even if via social network, thus improving my online game?
I mean, self-improvement doesn't stop, right?
Online game is really a bit of a misnomer. Until the day we can have sex online or something, online interactions exist to broker or set up in person meetings.
Those in person meetings are now being cut off due to quarantines and the like.
While it's good to keep in touch with some people you have already established a relationship with, there's a limited utility in trying to "game" people online. It's not really going to be possible to "game" new people on any real scale.
And if you can't meet someone, you're not going to get anywhere.
The fundamentals haven't changed, sadly. You can't make a connection with new people online; there's too much of the in person experience that can't be replaced online.

Corona can be BOTH a virus and the manifestation of an agenda. Is this not a red-pill sub??
Corona can be BOTH a virus and the manifestation of an agenda.
Point of order: Corona is a beer. :P
And in the way that leaders are responding to it, it shows their priorities or agenda. Sure.
Doesn't change the danger of failing hospital systems or the stories that keep coming out about the strain coming out of Europe that appears to be hitting younger people.
Is this not a red-pill sub??
Most definitely, it is NOT. This sub and that one parted ways years ago.
[–]condor69bravo 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
absolutely fucking fantastic! The bars and shopping malls are closed. Stay home and have sex. Take the opportunity to reinvest in your partner. The the local slut exchange centers will be back and going gangbusters before you know it. Then we can go back to playing in the farce "out with the girls" "Just blowing off some steam with the guys... For now take the opportunity to indulge in one another, become professionals at giving each other pleasure. Delve into sexuality that's down and dirty. Give each other kinky extras and surprises that are extra dirty. Either of you will be bored while we wait for reprieve from this virulent killer, if there is to be one.

EDIT: I edited the original post because the sources were not clear about the behavior of this virus.
Here is the update:
So, yeah. It can incubate for a long time and you're likely going to be contagious during that time. Bad combination.

not true. met with 2 fuck buddies the past few days. i met them online before coronavirus i guess so that's probly why. but still, i would still try for some online action, success rates may be lower but oh well
not true. met with 2 fuck buddies the past few days....
You're kind of the exception that proves what I'm talking about. Other people not you are still posting a lot about people flaking due to the virus.
Or at least citing the virus.
