"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

I was thinking of buying this book to improve my game.

Are the techniques in this book outdated? Any newer stuff on the market?
 

"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.

To be honest, there isn't a lot of material in there as much as it is a glorified DJ journal. Not saying its bad. Well worth reading. I just didn't learn much from it. Its more about his experiences in the game than it is about teaching others.

I recommend 9-ball from RSD. That's a journal type as well, but you learn more from it.

It's not meant to help you with your game. It's meant to be his story on becoming a part of the pickup community.

He talks about the techniques he learned, but it's just to give you an idea of what they are. In no way does he teach you how to use them. If you want to learn the actual method Strauss used read "The Mystery Method."

But if you want to read a good entertaining book read The Game.

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

It's not meant to be a source of material for routines. It was written as a warning about how weird and dysfunctional the pickup community really is.

Bingo, but also talks about how Strauss improved the first half of the book is epic the second half is truly depressing

The first time I read it I was so gung ho about game and I improved rapidly the second time I read it I realized how depressing it was cause I finally understood what Strauss was talking about

I've only read a hundred or so pages into it, but it's a good book that takes you into a new world that you may not have been in much before. You should try it out if you'd like a good read. There are many newer things on the market though - I believe the Game is about a decade old, and there are lots and lots of books out there.

People don't get this. Nerds around the world still see this as a manual or how to guide of sorts and it's the farthest thing from it.

Neil has been interviewed recently, and he's still the shy, awkward dork he was decades ago, and he's still getting tooled. He still has not entered mainstream social circles. However, he is a revered nerd at the top of the geek hierarchy.

It's carp, get Foundations by RSD. This is the only pua program you should ever get.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
