You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.
I used to freeze the second a beautiful woman looked my way. Frustrated. Awkward. Watching other guys walk away with the girl while I stood there tongue-tied.
Then I discovered 22 simple rules that rewired my entire dating life. The anxiety vanished. Conversations flowed effortlessly. Women started chasing me for a change.
These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.
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.
Agreed. Guys spend entirely too much time theorizing about seduction, especially PUAs. The funny thing is, I've yet to meet a normal guy who claims to be a pick up artist. Show me a guy who is a Mystery Method practitioner, and I'll show you a weird and lonely fella....Buddha_Mind said:If you start seeing the world as alphas vs betas and get wrapped up in that psychology...well...you're going down a dark and twisted road...
If you learn to see yourself as strong and work to actualize your dreams...some of these principles can jive nicely...or, can sure help you see where to waste your time less.
The big message is don't let this board turn you Sinister.
I have found after reading a slough of depressing threads it just breeds cynicism...this is not always helpful nor will help you get to where you ultimately want to go.
Take things with a grain of salt. Make your own truths based on your experiences and your research.
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
That and I reccoment book of look and how to be an alpha male. Two great books that have helped me so much.muscleman said:"Pickup theory" is just focused social skills and fundamentals of power as it relates to seduction.
Now, when you do unplug from the Matrix and see how you've been wrong, how "I can't believe this stupid sh!t works", you will most likely become disenchanted at some point. It's a phase of a larger process of self development, and a passing one at that.
Eventually you will realize how much power you actually have (self-actualization), and that's when life becomes really fun.
Your chances of finding a "quality woman" off the bat are almost nil. They need some semblance of malleability, but they need to be trained. By you.
PS. If you want to take a break from the "tips and techniques" and learn the CORE philosophies, I strongly suggest you read The 48 Laws of Power and The Art of Seduction (both by Robert Greene) and begin applying. It will change all aspects of your life.
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
minus the pink boa that line would probably work wonders.The Gambler said:I first read "The Game" by Neil Strauss a few years ago, and really enjoyed it. I decided to reread it just a couple of weeks ago, and can barely make it halfway through.... I'm not saying he isn't being truthful in the book, but frankly I don't see most of the information there being a fit for me. And yes, I understand that "The Game" is a sensational, impractical, milquetoast essay that was written more for entertainment than as a true guide on how to pick up women.
Frankly, the nuggets of useful information from that book can be found right here in this forum -- the stuff that IS practical and helps to boost your confidence, and to get yourself in good mental and physical shape.
It usually takes a while for an aspiring DJ to sift through all the information and decide what is best for himself or herself personally. Many tips and theories seem to contradict others, but in reality different tips are meant for different types of people (different personality types, different ages, different goals, etc.)
On thing is certain. I will NEVER tell someone to wear a pink feather boa and use the line "I would SO be into you if I weren't gay."

You ask a valid and good question. Probably yes. It's really like how too much theory is detrimental in science and engineering.Bossman90 said:Has anyone found that PU theory to be detrimental to your social skills and game?
Yeah, all this stuff is just life. I think you're better off just engaging girls in a natural way, being yourself. Unless yourself is a total raving pvssy. The point is to be bold, lose your fear, talk to the girls you're attracted to, don't be afraid to touch them, etc. Other than that, I think most of the "tips and tricks" are largely bullsh!t, even if they are based on a solid principle.csycpr said:Yes, when you put in in terms of "PU theory" I tend to think it's been detrimental. It's not to say I disagree with the concepts, but it has made my interactions "less natural,"
