I read "the game" which is the book Neil Strauss wrote about meeting and becoming great friends with mystery and learning his method. In the book he also deal with David D. and Ross Jefferies. And learns how to implement all that they have to say about the game.
All I really got out of it is that everyone has to find out what works for them. I know that I could never personally use the mystery method. I think magic is pretty gay and I'm not going to "peacock" around because it always struck me as the least masculine thing a person could do. Approaching strangers all day seems needy and makes you look insecure. Not the type of thing a man does if you ask me.
But if it works for mystery, more power to him. He's not me. Figuring out where you're game lies is like picking your major for college: they're all fine, you just have to see what suits YOU the best.
Also, getting a normal girl is not rocket science. You find out what it is that will attract a woman to you, then you display that to her in an affective manner. Take her out on a few dates. Whatever. But I'm not talking about trying to band chicks the first night I meet them anyway.
Learning NLP, and hypnosis, and all that other crap seems like overkill to me. Girls aren't THAT complicated. They're just people. Plus, I don't want to TRICK a girl into liking me. All that "I am the prize" is just silly affirmation. If you're the prize you don't have to TELL yourself that the whole time you're talking to a girl.
Plus, certain types of girls will respond to certain tactics. If you wear gaudy crap and peacock all day, you'll get the type of girl that likes that. Other girls will see you dressed like a moron and not dig it.
Remember, "the Game" is obvioulsy fictional to a level. Or at least the most real parts had to necessarily be cut out to make an interesting read. Its also largely promotional material for the seduction community.
c'mon, everybody has secret code names? They can seduce ANY girl they talk to? Most of them mysteriously don't have real jobs. Also, did you notice the amount of these guys who lived with their parents, even though they were in their thirties?
I know that I don't personally want to be that way. The Game consumed their whole lives. And that's a lot more sad than just not being able to get laid.
