Small things you do to build your Social momentum and Vibe

[Travel memoir21]

Okay here are some things and ideas you can do to build your social momentum and vibe according to Chat GPT if you're a really anti social dude and needs to fix his calibration and have a social momentum going for you. These are a couple of ideas I got off of Chat GPT.


' Okay I get most of my social needs from Social chanting and meditation, the type of chanting where I think and visualize and hanging around devotees of God, Krishna or Jesus and also thinking about helping other people as well. Then I log into support groups like Sosuave.net, Disgruntled Vets underground and reading Men's blogs and also texting friends and love ones. I'd like to practice my real world social muscles sometimes, I think it's by doing small acts like giving someone a treat outside, saying hi to a neighbor, going to buy a milk tea and conversing with the baristas, going to church to light a candle - it's only a short walk from my house. Can you give me 20 examples like this and how I can improve each time. What else can I do besides those?'

Track Small Wins: Keep a mini journal or notepad with positive moments and gratitude.

Breathe and Center: Before each act, breathe deeply and mentally say, “I’m doing this for God.”

I wonder what @SW15 says.

I wonder what @SW15 says.

In terms of attracting women, most of this means very little.

There are those 20 items in a typical American city.

With Item 14, women are usually not very sociable after any fitness type class. Interactions like what's mentioned in #14 are likely to create mild, pleasant interactions that don't go anywhere.

Item #4 - Farmer's markets and grocery stores are possible approach venues. They are low probability places, but it's possible to arrange first dates at these venues with good strategy and use of strong tactics. Using something like Krauser's "Daygame Mastery" would help with that. The approach that GPT suggests here wouldn't amount to anything. At best, it might give social practice in making meaningless small talk, but it's unlikely to result in a man getting laid.

Item #1 - If someone takes a morning walk on a walking path, that's an opportunity to meet women and arrange dates. However, using the opener GPT suggests will lead to a lot of meaningless interactions. In a morning walk scenario, opening with "Good Morning" is ok, but it'd be better to open with "Good Morning, X observation, and possibly Y question". Additionally, most mornings are not a good time to meet women on a walking path. Monday-Friday mornings are usually not going to have enough eligible women. On Monday-Friday, most younger single women are preparing to go to work. Additionally, the younger single women with remote work options are likely pressed for time and thinking about their forthcoming work tasks. They aren't going to be very open to having a conversation with a man that could lead to a date. Most younger women on a walking path will also be wearing headphones/earbuds and won't want to interact with any stranger. This is true regardless of whether the woman is unattached/seeking new penis or in an existing relationship/not seeking new penis.

Evenings and weekends are better times to meet women at parks and on paths. Even then, it's a challenge due to earbuds/headphones. Women aren't very sociable here.

A GPT has never touched grass and tried to talk to real women.

The common denominator is initiative. There will be times you will need to get the ball rolling and you may have to step out of your comfort zone. Sounds scary, maybe have not done much before....the thing to do is start small as described in the suggestions. The truth is unless you are dealing with a nasty person it is unlikely you will get a bad reaction for startin a small conversation. As mentioned by SW15 above, consider the surroundings/circumstances, sometimes people minding their own business & not in mood to talk - example person in a rush to work.

How works in practice - I went to a ballot drawing yesterday a friend of mine is municipal candidate. I got to city hall before him and I was waiting for him. It's downtown so there were a bunch of people coming and going at 10 AM. I said hi to a couple of people who walked by. I know you guys are interested in the women specifically, I said hi to 5 of them, only one of which was snob and completely ignored me. Most smiled, said hi back & kept walking, this is to be expected. The best interaction I had was with this one woman, she was about mid to late 30's, well dressed and everything looed like mid manager boss babe type.

She was okay looking, my target isn't really women older than me but i'm sure she had some grovelers in her day. Anyway as she was walking I kinda felt like she got closer to pass and felt like she had eyes on me (gut feeling) so I said hi just as she was about to pass. She stopped, half turned and said hello. I then said hope you have a good day, that's all. Admittedly my tone was kind of humorous/flirtatious. She straight up blushed and said thank you no one has told me that lately. At this point she had completely faced me so I knew I had her attention. We had a brief conversation - I just told her about the ballot & that I was there to support my friend. She asked questions about it and after a while I told her I was going to go look for him & cut things short.

If I was interested in taking it further I would've asked where she's going/is she on her way to work and then I would've asked her a bit about what she does. At some point would've asked how she likes working downtown and if she ever goes out to grab lunch/what her favorite spots are etc. If it's some place I know I would talk it up but even if I didn't it's just the same, i'd say something like got to go now but maybe we can go there sometime. This is when you ask for phone number, social media whatever you are comfortable with. I've field tested it, has worked out several times, when it hasn't it's unlikely any other way would've worked. A lot comes down to how you say things rather tha n what you say, just make sure there is a good flow going on.

Just had some Milk Tea coffee at the Park Courtyard this early evening. I was people observing and saw a few dudes who are in great shape and jogging around a few blocks. Makes me a little motivated to get out there and bust my butt myself.

Agitated, Hasty, Forgetful, Overbearing, Insecure, Narcissistic, Restless, Noisy, Grumpy, Achiever, Selfish, I knew a man like that.
In school, he was the troublemaker, hated by teachers, but who had followers.
In his workplace and networking days, he was the manager of a company and a basketball team.

No matter how badly he treated people, he took the position and claimed those titles. And people wondered, "Oh, the manager," as if he were a God to be worshiped. Women did the same, because the word "manager" was tempting.

He had no problem-solving skills whatsoever, other than the social skills of bringing people together and having them solve problems for him.

All the people around him were "fake nice guys and girls" and his relationships were all toxic.

This is the man I saw had the most "drive".
That was fake drive, but gave me the impression of no matter what you do or how you behave, you have to have something in life you pursue which is above the lives of all around you. And people will notice that and help you.
If you put yourself at the center of the pyramid, in your circle, there always besomeone on top of you, which you will serve.

In this case, I ended up thinking "manipulation and power" was his meta to cover his strong "shame" about himself

People can't help being drawn to strong, self assured personalities that can offer hope. This is straight across the board, male or female.

Try to embody more of that, it is worth more than "technical ability". People pay top dollar for the ability to motivate and inspire, this is something generally can't be taught.

FOrget all the cut-throat stuff you mentioned, that is unfortunately a consequence of an unchecked ego after people realize they have this ability. You can have an audience without being a dirtbag (and actually be well liked and not feared - there is a difference).

Have you evr been to something like a networking event or even let's just say a class @ school. What typically happens, most people get in there and try to keep to themselves, in some cases wait around awkwardly in hopes someone talks to them. I've been to some network events like this usually try to break the ice first. It hasn't happened a great deal but a handful of times some people I met at these things later told me they appreciated that I walked up to them first and said hello, it eased their anxiety/awkwardness. Always left me confused an I just said I was simply being friendly.

Most people are like that. The great majority of people are plagued by the same fears, insecurities etc. If you can encourage them to be hopeful, provide "good vibes", that's what they are after.

Okay, that makes sense.
But the people I described in the post aren't reassuring personalities... Far from it.
They're "strong" but selfish, and their anxieties fuel them.
