"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 am still a rAFC but there are some books even I can say are wrong, the most disagreeable one I’ve read is Wayne Ross’ Complete Guide to Handling Women.

It includes such advice as;

  • Don’t be at all sexual or flirty for at least the first eight dates
  • Be her bestest friend.
  • Continually stare at a pretty girl if you are at social group
  • Always bring a gift and card to the first date, (chocs or flowers)
  • Bombad a girl with gifts before she shows the least bit of interest in you.
  • Give a girl your phone number when she refuses yours.
  • Complement her looks a lot.

And the for the last and most shocking, I’ll quote directly from the book

− "I first saw Tiffany at the bank where I do my business.
She was one of the tellers. She was so beautiful and nice
that I dreamed of her at night. I was determined that I
would take her out. I asked her out but she told me that she
was engaged.
I was still determined to have her.
I found out where she lived and started sitting outside her
house in the evenings
. I knew he went over to her house at
night, so one night I hid in the bushes and waited for him.
When he came up the walk I came up behind him and
acted like I was lost. In my hand was a bunch of roses and
a small toy angel. I kept looking at a piece of paper in my
hand pretending I was looking for an address. I said to him,
'excuse me, I'm delivering for Andersen's florist, could you
tell me where a Miss Tiffany Wilson lives?"

Ouch! It has about two lines of common wisdom such as listening to your date, and going dancing together instead of a dinner and a movie. But on the whole, it is terrible, this surprises me, as his other book has lots of good advice not to do and some semi-decent openers.

What is the worst book you guys have read on our art?
 

"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.

Alright...

Even as someone raised in a very conservative (but not at all strict) family, this makes me puke! Hiding in the BUSHES to try to screw with her man? And a TOY ANGEL? Actually, this might actually work if she has a sense of humor because it's so ffing retarded.

At the very least, if you compliment a girl's looks, you should turn it into an inside joke between you. When I showed my girl a super hot photo of herself that I took at some social event soon after I met her, I smiled slyly at her and told her how annoying she looks in this photo...

It didn't take her long to catch on that when I call her "annoying" or something similar that I'm complimenting her looks. She can sit down next to me in class and I'll turn and say "wow you look terrible today" and she knows exactly what I mean. She loves it. Everybody else is horrified. It works out great.

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

I never liked Double Your Dating by D'Angelo. I just felt like it was David saying "you know what I like to do?" the whole time.

I had a feeling most of this sh*t was to make a quick buck!

What you must know is that you don't know what's in the book until you buy the sh*t.

The problem I have with dating advice books is that the book isn't the best format for getting advice. The best place to get dating advice is online forum like this one and it's all free. I've read DYD and the System by Doc Love and I can tell you I learned more from reading their articles on this site than I did reading their books. Luckily I found and read both books for free by locating them on file sharing websites. Just stick to the net and don't be one of those guys who spends hundreds of dollars on books and still can't pick up women.
 

"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.

that Louis and Copeland book is definate crap. That Lownes book is nonsense too

Thundercat's ebook is a ton of pages devoted to something that only takes about 2 seconds to do and should be effortless

DYD, Ross Jefferies and Swingcat's ebooks take one specific tactic you don't even need (C&F, speed seduction, and prizing respectively) and try to make it look a magic pill. Actually, most of the PUA ebooks do this and that's why they suck

Vin Dicarlo's stuff overcomplicates things, so does Mystery Method IMO. RSD stuff ranges from on point but information overload (TD's stuff) to unintelligible (Alex's rambling)

best ebook out is Entropy's, but nobody knows who he is

I don't think the Lownes book is terrible, for a seduction book targetting both genders it does its job decently.

I liked Thundercat's book, though it has little for an experienced PUA to learn from, it helps rAFC get over the first hurdle of interaction.

You are right, they sell themselves as more then actually are. The most successful product is usually the best marketed not the best made.

bro, mystery method is one of the best....but i won't say if any of the such books are bad...actually the point is take the best from each one of them and then incorporate it into your personality.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

i think DAVID DE ANGELO S original post written under the name of SISONPYH is the foundation of everything !!!!!!!
He got the C/F concept from RICK H
TIME CONSTRAINT STATUS OPINIONOPENERS ( VERGING ON THE CONTROVERSIAL) SCRIPTED CONVOS ( " know what you are going to say" he writes in his book ) it all is in his original work
Everything that has been written since is anything but original

check out SISONPYH on GOOGLE
