Alpha Traits examplified through video

[tryst type]

Found this randomly while looking for a certain clip from one of my favorite shows Californication.

I did not make these clips with annotations but the person who did does a pretty good job of showing what a male/female interaction SHOULD be like. Great examples to watch.

nice

 

[Jariel]

Good example of coolness and indifference, but he's really lacking charisma and failing to build rapport.

The big problem with these videos is that the chicks are already into him in a big way and making all the moves, but it doesn't show how he got them so interested.

It is a good example of how to act around attention wh0res or girls who have rejected you, however.

This is great but...
This was written! I bet the script writer is damn good with women. Now this is how an interaction should go but 90% of the time it won't.
But yea theres definitely some stuff to be learned by Mr. Moody

Those are awful examples because it's all seem very fake. This is the main reason why I don't watch much television anymore because once you develop good social skill, you can tell easily how fake tv are.

I'll give you newbies a little tip. If you want to learn from examples, I suggest you watch some reruns of reality dating shows like The Blind Date or Fifth Wheel because those are REAL LIFE. Not all of them are great and some you can learn what not to do.

There's one episode that shows how to pull off the jerk behavior. It's with this buff guy with tattoos on spring break. His date ditches him in the middle and he goes off and picked up a random blond and takes her back to his hotel room. All in one night. I don't know where on the web it is, but if I find it I'll post it here.

Uh, please don't tell me you are so dumb as to believe that those are real life. Look. Agencies give the casting directors names of actors who are willing to do the shows. You get interviewed. It is a stepping stone to other shows. It is totally fake. Most of the guys are gay to begin with.

Uh, they just go right by the fact that one of the most famous entertainers of the 20th Century wanted to be an entertainer! FAKE! The old Dating Game was a launching pad for many famous entertainers.

So, you know this personally that's it a bunch of actors or are you just making assumptions. What are your sources?

You are doomed in this life.

Just one example. A classic actor. He is even represented. He has been on a number of different shows and commercials.

I am curious. How old are you? Just wondering.

I'll give you that some reality shows do use them. But that doesn't mean they are acting on them. It's still real life interactions that newbies can benefit learning from.

As stated already the views don't give multi-dimensions cuz the main character is already an established badass. So there's no rapport or anything in that vein.

And the Bollywood above me is pretty lame too.....
Don't worry, MG to the rescue!


Here are some pretty thorough videos that you might want to add the the OP, tryst type:
If anyone has seen American History X, you know how badass Edward Norton is in it. This guy Entropy goes over a scene shot-by-shot, so it's nice and in depth.
