Does this stuff really work?

jackthehat6 · 2026-01-12T15:41:39+00:00

I started to improve my sex life quite a lot since learning all about 'seduction' and 'game' etc, BUT I honestly, truly think that it was more because it got me actually approaching so much! I tihnk the 'techniques' and stuff is mostly pure marketing, bro science nonsense.

But I got laid quite a lot because I really dived in and was inspired by all the material and courses i'd consumed (i've read and watched just about everything in existance, tbh!) and if you approach enough, you stumble across girls who like you

But as I say, i'd personally be very weary of people telling you it's some sort of black magic and that you can essentially force attraction in girls with with stuff. Many coaches who claim god like 'game' get rejected again and again, many times in a row. I promise. I've seen it

So yeah, cold approach is cool. Do it. But you'll need thick skin and volume as, if you didn't hit the genetic lottery, a lot of girls will give you a clear 'no' and no amount of 'game' is gonna turn that ship around 99% of the time

absolutely

Yeah, my dating life did a complete 180 after I read this stuff and actually went out and started cold approaching. Specifically Magic Bullets/Mystery Method and RSD's Blueprint Decoded were the main influences, the first set me on the path of figuring out what women actually respond to and what they don't, the second was like BANG started to see the Matrix and what really matters. The skills carry over to everything else social and a lot of it tbh is a numbers game in the end, but it's a game 99% of guys never play because they don't believe. Once you believe the numbers just happen, in every interaction with a woman it's potentially game on

For me personally no it didn’t. I’ve faced 10+ years of nothing but constant rejection. But I’m also unique in a negative way as well so I don’t know how much my word is worth in regard to your question.

Yes - if you put in the work. It’s not just about cold approaching (which is a small but necesssry component of seduction), it’s about becoming a man who is disciplined, ambitious, and goal oriented - basically a more masculine and grounded man who is working toward his purpose. That has huge returns in all swathes of life beyond just love life. I have a better social life, more professional success, better health, and even better mental health. I’m not even that great at pickup (I can get 6s at a decent rate but 8s are still tough) but my life is much better and more rewarding once I started really investing in game (and therefore myself).

You can start off faking it, but to get real results you end up do actually transforming yourself and your life (making it)

It worked for me.

I not drowning in puhhh. But life has been good.

Yes but take it all with a grain of salt, don't get too invested in the community because there is a lot of blind leading the blind. The general advice that has lasted over time is solid.

I think its best for people who are hard case newbies, like struggle with socializing in general. Once you get to a point that you have confidence and can talk to strangers including women you're attracted to without turning to mush, you're good.

While many men dream of being players, most actually don't really want that lifestyle once it becomes achievable. I think it can be a fun chapter, but it's kind of cringe when it becomes somebodys whole life.

There are more beneficial things to focus on in the long run, casual sex gets old believe it or not.

Yes. The Game and The Mystery Method changed my life. I was a virgin at 22. Managed to have sex only once before reading them. Then, in about 3 years, I managed to get in bed with 8 different women.

I’ve improved for sure, but through learning irl. The knowledge presented here is pretty limited. I use it mostly for motivating myself to get back out there if I’m in a slump

Yes, it works but it is not as it is dramatized.

First the barrier to improve your life is significantly lower than "slaying it". You don't need a new lay every weekend, you need 5-10 quality lays and your whole life will change.

After that you will see, that you will engage with Game out of subjective personal goals: novelty, true interest etc, not out of necessity.

Second, it takes work. A lot of work, depending on where you start at life, the average is about 1-2 years until consistent results. These are 2 hard years of rejection and personal introspection.

Third, most of the value you get is about reducing the power of the society over you. A new girl is good, but the novelty wears off fast. What is more important is that all those status goals society places in the eyes of peolpe: a rolex, a lambo, a high paying job... seem odd and useless to you. That is the true source of freedom, not your 110th lay

No. Give Up now.

You wont get any and be miserable, but at least you Will feel intelligent because you did not dedicate time to something that could have helped but probably wouldnt. You Will have so much time saved, you can use It to play Pacman, Or Pokemon.
