Great post! Sorry to nitpick, but I also find this works.
It might seem like low energy, but if you emphasise it correctly, it's high intensity.
"What's your favourite Netflix show," is indeed quite boring.
But "What's the best show you've ever seen, ever? What's moved you?"
Maybe better than just adding a guessing question to every single question. It can get tiresome and tedious (and comes across as a little narcissistic) if you are always trying to guess things or assume things when just taking a genuine interest in someone can be the most flattering thing.
But seriously great stuff, truly. I went through a bad breakup a while back and ended up being properly single for the first time in my adult life. The subsequent time after that I went on lots off dates and became far more competent, basically doing exactly what you are talking about. The validation is good, but it's proof that this stuff works!!

Do you game anywhere but college campuses? Spiking isn't necessary on campuses because the girls there are easy going and easy to start conversations with.
In situations where people are not giving you enough attention or time to talk to them (any girl who is walking/standing in a big city, and also often in night game) - they won't be easy going or just start answering really boring questions with real answers. They will be short, terse, and aloof. You have 2 seconds to make an impression beyond your opener - and the only viable solution to do it through spiking.
It is an absolutely necessary tool and skill to game outside of campuses. Telling people otherwise is massively handicapping them to only doing campus game. Its creepy as shit for guys who don't go to that campus to go there to game - especially if they're older than 25.

Pretty good post. I like this part the best:
"Learning pickup techniques can be helpful, but don’t try to force them into your interactions, trust that you subconsciously think of a good tease when it’s appropriate."
Couple of ways to practice this:
1) Watch infields by good, smooth PUAs and try to absorb the feeling of how much they tease (or don't tease) and the vibe of the tease. Visualize yourself being the PUA and coming up with those teases.
2) Think about a girl you saw or that you know ... IRL or from a picture or video. Visualize youself gaming her. Not word for word but imagine that you approach or say hi, then make an observation about her, tease her a little, you get her interested, switch to easy topics to build comfort, spike the interaction with laser eye contact, talk about a mutual activity you could do, then either lead her onto an instadate or get contact info for the near future. Imagine you're watching a video of yourself doing it, where the dialog is indistinct but you can see her laughing, smiling and throwing out IOIs (to which you are unreactive and un-needy)
3) Practice everything except the instadate/close with anyone and everyone. Just be a sociable guy who is observant, witty, and a good listener. If you can game street sweepers and Uber drivers then gaming hot girls will be easy because it's what you do.

Incredible advice, I needed to hear this!
[–]BetterBeLuckyThanGud 5 points6 points7 points 7 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
The easiest way to create tension Is to look in her left eye and vizualize what you'd liké to do to her. Then look at lips and again in the eye.
I dont liké to do it anymore because it feels like i violate them.

I’ve been playing league so long I’m reading I.E. as infinity edge 😂😂😂 yeah this shit is even more complicated than league. Tip toeing around and then getting personal, dropping hints, push pull, that’s just too much..... I’ll just die a dateless virgin and be on my way.

Greaaat post Man! What works best for me is touching and teasing even though I seem as a distant cold guy most of the time ( or at first ) I've been in a loop of exerting negative vibes even though I got iois from girls..my own mind was sabotaging me and at the end of the countless nights I was facepalming thinking how it could have gone better. When you are out there ,just don't think much .
Try to have fun , see everything kind of funny and create tension as mentioned above.Eye contact is a great tool especially for me, that I don't always engage. One positive thing that happened yesterday and skyrocketed my confidence :
Last night I was walking with a friend doing the usual walk-by at a bar street, just a typical walk for us living in islands. We pass near an open space bar thing ( sry cannot describe it accurately) and lock eyes with 2 gorgeous girls ( 1 from russia and the other from serbia), s oo we just decide to just chill for a beer as it is an open space there with quite the latinn music hits etc etc. Those 2 girls with no company having the time of their life dancing..and we are there just enjoying all this scenery.
Instantly like cockroaches , groups of thristy males go surround them in a circle and try their luck. What happened next really really surprised me .
We never stood up , danced or engaged in any conversation with them But , whenever she was looking our way and locked eyes I just winked at her playfully..just that . In the meantime all the guys at the bar just trying to hit on them like crazy . We finished our beers and decided to leave passing near them and winking at her in a face 2face distance for the last time. 20 seconds later I feel a hand at my shoulder guys...guess whoo was it ! That gorgeous Russian girl I was just winking for the past hour just came after me.. leaving her friend and aall those guys. It felt incredible
P.s sorry for my English it's not my first language P.s2 this happened in Greece also , I don't particularly look Greek ( half African half greek )

Yeah that sounds made up, no one looks cool or sexual winking unless you’re really attractive. In the USA I know that shit wouldn’t work.
[–]tsavalove 0 points1 point2 points 7 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
They werent even sexual winkings for the most part I was just trolling-winking if u know what I mean Having fun with interacting with others I could turn around and give a couple of guys a smile and thumbs up just "asking " them if they are having fun That's was just intuitive reaction to everything cuz I was vibing with the place,music ,people. Juuust chillin It was like fishing but not trying to really just for fun

You need to learn what a paragraph is.
[–]Aghayden 9 points10 points11 points 7 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
I'm always open to critical feedback, but I need you to be more specific.
[–][deleted] 4 points5 points6 points 7 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
no you don't, by the way. You are writing for a posting website, and your decision of having paragraphs based on subject and changing when some aspect of the topic changes (new info, different approaches, etc) works perfectly.
[–]mancozbi -2 points-1 points0 points 7 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
PMing you now.
[–]Wevvie 3 points4 points5 points 7 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
This way works best, since walls of texts are a turn off to read. I don't see how paragraphs would make this reading more comfortable/dynamic. It's good enough as it is.
