Picked up a 2006 book at a used bookstore called “The Mystery Method: How to Get Beautiful Women into Bed“. Read it over the past week and last night tried it out at the NYC bars. Ended up pulling a hot girl back to my place at end of night which has never actually happened to me before. Kind of shocked this book actually works because it felt super 2000s cringe. If anything I think people were more open to it because of lack of competition.

Peacocked with some cool rings/ jewelry. Tempted to get a feather boa to use as a lock in gambit but decided not to, too beginner to handle that variable yet.

Canned openers lifted straight from the book, “Hey excuse me, who lies more, men or women?” And ”Did you know Elvis Presley dyed his hair black” with a smile while turning away / over the shoulder (body language tip from the book). Successfuly stimulated conversation in a smooth manner. Made sure to engage entire sets not just focus on the Target, in fact focusing on the Obstacles instead of target while lobbing negs to generate attraction. DHV stories about my female friends to generate pre selection attraction switches.

I will say many sets were not successful, but the one that mattered at the end of night did. Successfuly navigated the three stages and 9 sub-stages from attraction through seduction. Even used one of the gambits where you ask her to hold out her hand and use as a spin move to steal her chair by the bar and lock-in. Biggest game changer for me was understanding congruence tests, compliance, negs and just the idea that you don’t want to be an overly appeasing nice guy which is my natural inclination, don’t jump through their hoops but give them hoops of your own.

Fan of the method because it’s a system, it’s like third person controlling yourself through stages in a video game. I think it’s great for naturally introverted guys and semi-autists which Mystery is himself based on some of his biography and descriptions in the book.
