"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Did anybody happen to see Family Guy last Sunday night?
Quagmire was teaching a class on how to get laid and even took them out on a bootcamp type outing. There were references to peacocking and other PUA tactics. At least Quagmire did point out that these tips were only to get laid, not to be used on girls you care about.

My favorite bit was when Brian tried to "neg" the girl he was after, Denise.
She wants to leave and he says "Why, you getting more moles put on?".

This site below has a link where you can watch the parts of the show related to pickup:

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

quotes from that episode

"First, you ask about her father. If she says anything positive, then move on."

and then later, after Quagmire has gotten with Brian's bimbo ex, she says:

"I like him because he says things that my father would say if he were here!"

that's deep stuff for a cartoon :D
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

What I find interesting is how they take common mistakes and perfectly exemplify them:
  • You can't take a social misfit and turn him into a "stud" just by going to one of these seminars. It's a total mindset and physical change that takes time, even years to learn and develop.
  • They've got the whole retarded "peacocking" thing down to a T. Do have a unique style but don't dress like a fucking retard.
  • Also loved the excessive negging and C&F. Like good condiments, they need to be used sparingly.
  • "These skills aren't for women you care about, you idiot! This course is in getting laid, not finding love!" :D
Also, LOL @ the SNL comparison and the pirate guy with the wooden... everything! :D

Link to episode.

Overall it was meh, I don't like angry Quagmire. Best part was the SF II scene.

As for PU not being meant for women you actually care about. As Brian pointed out. Then what is the point?

What indeed? I guess the point is to get laid. Now that may not sound like much of a big deal, but if you've never been able to have sex, then it's probably important to you. That's just the sort of guy the PUA business preys upon.

A lot of guys come here because they want to know how to get a certain girl, their oneitis. Unfortunately, this pickup stuff can only get you women, not a particular woman.

It's funny in a way. Guys want a certain girl they care about, and are taught to not care about women, and to go have sex with women they don't care about. It doesn't sound like much of an accomplishment if you look at it like that, but sometimes caring about a woman too much just guarantees failure with her.

Oh, by the way, regarding angry Quagmire. It's been established that he hates Brian, that's why he comes off that way in this episode.

Okay guys, Self-Improvement Rule #12: don't watch cartoons. Especially not juvenile cartoons fixated on anal openings, feces, urine, sperm, licking up sweat, smelling farts, sticking fingers in bleeding wounds for sexual arousement, or whatever else the writers can come up with to make boys giggle.

It can only get you women, not a particular woman - true. If she doesn't want you, she doesn't want you. This PUA stuff is a lot like being a salesman, so much that I could write a long thread about the similarities. Spin plates, for example - you have to do your best, do it often, and know when to move on and still keep the edge.

I don't think we are taught not to care about women. At least not by the tips taught in this forum. I have never seen anyone advocate lying to a woman, for example.

But maybe some of the gurus who make a business out of this have a different attitude, I haven't studied what they say. It is not an attitude I want in that case. I have gotten laid more than probably 99 percent of guys who have visited this forum, and never have I been disrespectful to the girls. I also only come on to girls who I like, which means that aside from being attractive they must be intelligent and mature, which I respect. Luckily, living close to a university from my own university days and onward, that is not too hard to find.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Oh no, scribblec got so offended by my comment about his favorite cartoon that he had to give me a neg rep. People who neg opinions they don't agree with, that's lame.... I give neg rep only if someone is clearly insulting to other people in a forum.

Bvllsh1t,you gave me a negative rep cause I once said that sweden is a country ruled from women where the man archetypal is a pvssy and you got pissed off.
It wasnt a personal attack on swedish ppl but on an unnatural system polluted from leftism and feminism.

Anyway your posts are good and make sense most of the times,you probably skipped enough days at schools thankfully.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
