I used to be fairly addicted to video games in high school. Like any free time I had to play. First delete any games on your phone. That's pretty big. Second hide your games. If you don't want to play don't make it an option. I made the mistake of finding less and less entertaining games to play to curb myself. Before I knew it I became a minesweeper master mind. Third find a cool hobby.. brewing, woodworking, working on your car, guitar, sports whatever.

Go on /r/seduction, read books recommended by /r/seduction, go to the gym, go to a cafe and day game, go to a bar

Lot of good posts here.

Dancing - Being a good dancer helps. A lot. Like one woman told me, a great dancer is like having an orgasm. In game, it is important to isolate your target. Dancing does that. And I don't mean modern dancing. But dancing that involves touch like Salsa. You see a group of women, you ask the one you like to dance. Then you wow her socks off. So then you take her to the other side of the dance club. Now you are both alone. There is a lot of KINO in dancing ( again not modern dance were you just your own thing ) so you already have that done. Since women associate great dancing with sex, she already has thoughts in her head. So think about it. You have isolated the target. You placed your hands all over her body. And your sex dance moves puts thoughts in her head. Still not convinced? Go to youtube and watch people do the Tango. They look like they are having sex on the dance floor.

Guitar - Yep. Being a musician is good for game. Ask anyone who has ever joined a band. For whatever reason, women throw themselves at musicians. Being a member of a rock band means groupies. Even being a member of a minor not so successful rock band can get you tail.

Intellectual pursuits - If you travel in intellectual circles, then being well read helps. Being able to quote Shakespeare and Camus makes you sound smart. Which will attract pseudo intellectual women.

There are tons of other activities you can do to substitute video games! Just like you, I'm an avid and binge gamer, but I do find lots of down time while gaming to participate in these other activities.

Explore your current interests on the internet. I'm assuming you're a college student so read up on whatever it is that you're majoring in to help your studies and gain a better understanding of your field and career.

Find new workouts and polish your current ones because you can never be done "working out". Sure you might be impressed at your gains, but honestly bro them lats are looking a little small.

Read current events to stay in touch with the world. Having knowledge on what is happening around us is a great way to spark conversations with friends, family, dates, and even complete strangers. You're improving so many social skills by just doing this.

Find an entirely new interest and immerse yourself in it. I was never into the skateboarding scene and totally sucked at it, but I found out about long boards last summer and fell in love with it! Now I'm sitting in my seat, anxiously, waiting for winter to end so I can get back out there!

Once you figure out what your interests are and what you would like to improve, you realize that there is not enough time in the day to fulfill whatever it is that you'd like to learn, read, and do.

I like to meditate or work on my website when i have sparetime- i also game a bit, i don't think gaming is bad for you (Unless its taking over your life, as it used to with my experience)

reading. Novels, learning new shit, the newpaper (this one actually caught me off guard. I started reading the NYTimes everyday and everyone suddenly thinks i'm a genius lol). Reading in general leads to more productivity i.e. school work actually becomes a lot easier when reading is a leisure hobby

Getting into music: my itunes sucks but music reverberates the soul. Its awesome when you find something you really like

cleaning/grooming. When i'm really bored, i'll start cleaning and then taking care of myself.

Writing/drawing. i keep a journal and a notebook for randomly drawing pictures. I get carried away when i'm in the zone.

i should probably get off reddit and do something productive...

Read a book. Learn a new hobby. Explore your town.

the_fuzzyone · 2014-02-04T22:01:14+00:00

BroseidonSirF · 2014-02-05T00:38:09+00:00

Learn an instrument.

Play pickup sports with strangers

Learn to play lacrosse

Take. a. (partner) dance. class.

Game over. (No pun intended.) Many of the skills that good leaders learn to be come good leaders, are so useful in everyday social life, including seduction. Plus, they're usually short of guys in the classes so they'll be extra welcoming. (The corollary to this is that the guy/girl ratio will usually be better than 1 to 1.) Lindy hop, salsa, Argentine tango, West coast swing, etc., are great choices.
