"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.

He used an example of a caveman chief who was a good hunter and protective of his women and compared this to "Steve"... it was hilarious. She doesn't care if you love her and that she is the only women in your life if all you are providing is 'leaves' for clothes and a squirrel for a meal.
I've seen that video about "Steve" and the alpha male, it made perfect sense. But if you notice, a lot of it focused on beta Steve's inability to provide (all he could give were the leaves and the squirrels). This seems like such a major part of the story of women and evolution. I've never thought that PUAs were being fully upfront about the Provider role. In these tribal examples, the alpha male is always a much better Provider than the beta.

And yet, PUA gurus always dismiss the "Provider" as being a beta, and portray the "Provider" as being unattractive to females (except for gold diggers). But this doesn't make sense according to their own narrative, because the alpha male is always better able to provide, and has access to more resources. I'm a little suspicious of the whole thing, like they promote the "alpha fvcks, beta bvcks" idea because of their own agenda, to appeal to customers.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

This is true. Alpha are definitely the providers when it comes to women. A lot of betas can’t even get a date, and thus aren’t providing for women. The alphas work their a$$ off to provide for their families. I also see a lot of alphas paying child support, but I don’t know if any betas paying it.

True:

If you are in demand, good levels of LMS, and a good provider based on her standards, your chick will not leave you or cheat on you.

If you can't provide ..... chicks will never consider you relationship material. If you are good looking, you'll be able to bang chicks as long as you know how to make that happen. I can never really understand cucks... guys that know their wife is fvcking other dudes and just let that happen, I know a couple of them really well... they just let this happen... One came out and told me that if I wanted to fvck his wife he was fine with it... but I don't need that sh!t in my life. But if you think about it, I suppose it's a choice... and likely one developed during early stages of human development, and lasted into the Middle Ages with the practice of 'droit du seigneur' where merchants had to pay their lord so he would not fvck his bride, which was not revoked until the late 1400s. If you are married to a chick, and she is not happy because you are not making her tingle, you can divorce her... and fight a battle in family court where there is a good chance that you will lose your @ss, unless you have the money to hire a good lawyer, she'll have your kids and ruin them. Or demand she remain loyal, and if she thinks she doesn't have better options, she'll just become a horror show.... or you can just turn a blind eye to her cheating, where she will be happier... actually take care of herself... and leave you alone to do what you want. It wouldn't be MY choice, but I can see where some men might find this a better alternative.

If you are a provider that meets her material needs, but are otherwise weak, she'll stay... and cheat on you with men she finds attractive. Or WORST, morph into a fat nagging monstrosity who will beat you down like a dog and make your life a living hell as you move through life hunched over working like a plow horse.

I’ve got a Tinder date coming up this weekend. In the meantime, I’ve been watching a lot of RSD to keep myself entertained. I feel like I’ve learned a good bit of useful information from their videos. But I also see a lot of hate from them.

I’m gonna continue watching cause I like their information. But since I respect the Don Juan opinion on here, I wanted to know what you all thought about them. Thoughts?
From the few I've seen posted on here, it's a cornballed smoke and mirrors chit show, imo, but if it helps some guys get laid, good deal. The ones I've seen by the red headed dude would likely have you walking around with your front teeth in your back pocket, depending on what type of crowds you end up partying around. A little dated on the terminology, Tariq Nasheeds Art of Mackin and The Elite Way are good, but the principles andhis breakdown of social dynamics and transactional relationships is timeless. Player Supreme has some good stuff. The 48 Laws of Power/Seduction was worth a read, even if it doesn't align with your perspective. The Way of Men, written by a homo, none the less a great read. The Strength by Sonny website has a few good reads. Started that book by Rollo awhile back and what I read I liked, but started reading something else and haven't finished it yet. One of better how to books I've read was actually written by a female, from a females perspective by Marny Kinrys or something. Text appeal is gold too.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

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.

I read somewhere that Tyler has Attention Deficit Disorder. No frigging wonder the guy is so high energy, he probably gets prescribed all the Adderall he wants!

Yeah, it's important for a man to be strong, no matter who he is. I just think it's odd that so many PUA gurus associate the Provider Type with betas, when by their own evolutionary standard they like to use, the alphas were the ones in control of the resources. I guess giving credence to the Provider role doesn't fit their agenda of
1) Pushing a womanizing lifestyle (this is far easier to teach than getting a quality girl to fall for you)
2) Telling/selling guys that they don't need to have LMS to get girls

RSD max has a new program called Get me a girlfriend. His claim is that the PUA community has this false notion that getting a girlfriend is for wimps and unless your banging a different HB 9 every night you’re beta.

I’m getting older and finding that banging random sluts gets dumb and dealing with their flakiness is incredibly disillusioning.

Their website has long had a relationships forum, but I don't think I've ever checked it out. I agree that the PUA community has that notion, and that it is false.
Like you say, dealing with random garbage all the time can get tiresome after awhile. Moving into something with a little more depth seems like a natural evolution to me. To each his own, I guess.
