Yeah, but that's really easy to take too far. I've definitely done that. Ruined any shot I had with a few girls...

lol. Well, TBH, when people usually pose these sorts of questions the only thing anyone can ever offer is a bandaid solution. Why? Well.... Breaking the ice really is probably the last thing most guys should be concerned about. What about their lifestyle? Do they have a solid grasp of their own identity? Do they have a clear vision of what kind of man they want to be? Do they have sound beliefs and convictions? Do they assert them? Do they have hobbies? A social circle? Are you physically fit? Are you passionate about something? Fixing your lifestyle will make a far far far greater impact on your sex life than any opener, or PUA system.

It's like someone in the strategy forum asking, "What can I do to improve? I'm at hive tech and I'm even casting some pretty good swarms and plagues... I even get him sometimes with STOP lurkers, and my muta micro early on delays him pretty well but I keep on losing no matter what I try." And then you look at his replay and you see that he's been on 3 hatches the entire time and his mineral count is at 3000. Macro guys! Macro!

bump, Hey I got a question involving buses and bus stop game.
If you have ever ridden the bus its the kind of place where people are very introverted and disregard everyone while they read, do homework, listen to music, text people.

So basically this super fine girl i see about 50 feet away is walking towards the bus stop where me and like 10 other people are waiting. The moment she walks up and we see each other I can feel a vibe. Then in like 10 minutes we all get on the bus and she sits across from me. I can feel her eyes dart over me and you know when you get that vibe like you both are interested in each other from across the room or whatever. It was totally one of those, but we never really made eye contact. Damn she was hot she was even standing cute waiting for the bus.

She's obviously one of the college students that go to CSULB and ride this same bus. She is about 5'5" or taller, caucasian/italian or some dark breed, semi-long dark brown hair; fairly smooth/straight looking, pretty tight figure; small waist, nice sized butt (she was wearing those black strechy pants that form fit girls so well), perky tits (probably B cup), beautiful big brown? eyes, slightly larger nose but in a cute way etc, small lips and jaw, etc. This girl was fine.

fufufufufuuuuuuu
How do I game this girl on the bus in the event that I see her again? (btw I might not see her again because I was late for work and took a bus I normally wouldn't)


...simply because I fucked up in this simple scenario bazillion times before I got into some pickup stuff: Whenever you get an "approach invitation" by a women like "the" eye contact you mentioned or you realize she's hovering around you all the time and looking at you sometimes (if it was a man and you'd be a women you'd call him creepy =P)...

It does not matter at all what you're saying. Not at all. You can approach her group talking about the weather and she'll know you're there for her. And she'll like it. Or you can approach her with simply being completely HONEST and telling her that you feel like you'd pass a chance and would be angry for the rest of the day if you wouldn't have talked to her right now. "Do you know what I'm talking about? When did that last happen to you?" ---> ohmygawd, natural conversation.

Hell, when you get invited 20 times like you described above even a huge not-taking-seriously-what-your're-saying-grin and a "Hey, nice weather, right?" while taking the seat next to her is gold.


"Just do it." You can't lose but there's a lot to gain.



Oh and: Don't break that fucking eye contact first.

Awesome "guide" to eye contact, might help you a lot: http://www.jeansjoe.net/blog/?p=14

of course this is true, and it's obvious that a stable, fit life is the greatest way to improve your sex life.

I assume people here are smart enough to know these things, and also smart enough to figure out that if they like goth girls they don't go to the rich kids club in some downtown strip.

sometimes people just have problems solving a situation for one reason or another, and that's why they ask and i simply offered an alternative answer i thought would be a good solution to the problem posed. of course i could ask how physically fit he is, how knowledgeable he is on the subject, what his beliefs are, ( in the case they contradict the typical gym going woman's) etc etc etc i assume he would think about these things himself.

just like in SC i would assume he was macroing decently, and if not he knew that it was a problem but still wanted to know if there was some easier way of solving the situation.

I honestly think confidence in your self, and knowing that who you are is nothing to be ashamed about is the important thing in dealing with the opposite sex, specially if you are interested in a possible relationship, be it purely platonic or something more.

From personal experience I'd say that stuff like pickup is the tip of the iceberg, but a pretty important one.

For me there was a point where I was like "Hm. Well, you're not really satisfied with the quality/quantity of women around you. Also you screwed up some potential relationships.". That thought lead me to reading kennigets posts seriously (yarly), reading "the game" and I went from there.

After a few weeks you start realizing one of two things:

a) Those techniques and patterns are awesome and you can get laid a lot with it. And you'll love it.
b) You're into this stuff to "cover up" things which are just a result of "inner game problems". aka you start exploring problems and possibilities which you haven't even thought of before.


The move from "frustration" -> "pickup" -> "character developement" is, in my opinion, just a logical result of realizing what's really going on.

Realizing and admitting that you start getting into pickup because you are not satisfied with the "current you" (or maybe, that was my main problem, you just don't act like yourself if you're around someone you find attractive) is probably the most important step in getting good with girls.

I just happened to write "PUMA" wrong and PUA istead:D. I usualy don't post at all on this forum but i have been in this PUA community for about 5 years and all ive read in this post is pure SHIT!:D

I saw someone write Mystery??!!?! comon man, he's nothing as a pua. just very good on promoting himself.

The best tip i can give is go onto http://www.pick-up-artist-forum.com/. its a good foum, not as good as i used to be but still good. And buy 60 years of challenge (or download if ur a ******).

Thats all for me feel free to pm if u have any questions related to this subject.

Eyy banana. What you doing?

lol dude this was like a post long time ago in which we though PUA's were the shit. Mod's can actually close this necro'ed thread
I don't think I've ever wished my opponent good luck prior to a game. When I play, I play to win. I hope every opponent I ever have is cursed with fucking terrible luck. I hope they're stuck playing underneath a stepladder with a black cat in attendance a
