Learn social skills or pay the price

[Willie Naylor]

The truth is as long as its business related there is never a problem feeling comfortable talking to women. The North American society does not lend itself to making it feel normal to talk to women to socialize. Feeling comfortable doing something that is not normal to do would be the issue rather than feeling comfortable. You sort of have to fight against that mental programming. Unless one gets solid IOIs and feel looks validated people on here generally dont cold approach.

Earbuds/headphones are meant to discourage approaches. They do that well. If you want to approach on a general gym floor now, you're likely going to need to approach someone wearing earbuds/headphones. Walking/hiking paths are getting that way too + you're competing with a woman's dog in a lot of cases. Millennials (1982-1996 births) are well known to be the most pet crazed generation ever. Single, unattached women are more likely to be pet owners than single, unattched men. Dogs are possible cocck blocks too as the woman may be less attentive to the approach. I would say that earbuds/headphones are a bigger discourager of approaches than a dog, though the combination of the two factors make outdoor approaching more difficult.

Yes, earbuds/headphones will affect an outcome negatively. When you approach someone with wearing those, they are already annoyed that you disrupted them. It becomes interruptive marketing rather than permissive marketing, unless you happen to get a good IOI from someone wearing earbuds/headphones, which isn't that common.

But I see just as many men with earphones on as women.

This holds very true for men, but not so much for women.

I know a woman who is shy and socially awkward but she is good looking.

She has always had boyfriends despite her not having much of a personality.

bites doesn’t it?
Women can get away with being shy and socially awkward but a man cannot

Looking good gets your foot in the door, but you need good social skills to stay. It doesn't matter if you look like a young leonardo Dicaprio, if you're really socially awkward eventually she will get tired of it.

true, but only a tiny percentage of men have such bad social skills to the point they can't look someone in the eye for a second etc
If she thinks you are attractive/handsome, you just need to not be super super weird and you're good to go.
My wingman has very little game and outslays anyone here and with hotter girls. I'd put money on it (i'd estimate he gets approached about 6 times per night by cute 18 year olds)

Game is good. That's the easy bit we all know. We've all read the material. But it can't make a girl sexually attracted to you. That's just PUA marketing. Watch infields for proof of this lol

Eye-contact exercises probably won't work today since everyone is glued to their phones.

Either way, nobody is making these bootcamp threads anymore. What's your take on why they are absent?

Stopped being trendy. Maybe they need to come back? I'm sure many twitter guys are selling such courses

Maybe they should come back if its because its no longer trendy if it works. If its because technology and dating apps have changed things in such a way that such a bootcamp would be outdated because its too dated then that's another story. I doubt trendiness would be an excuse to stop something that would work today. I mean people complain about negative blackpill mindsets and threads on here. Wouldn't a bootcamp thread be a simple way to disprove all that and add positive energy to the board?

This forum wouldn't be the place for it. It's too addicted to feeling sorry for itself & negative content thrives.
