Cool, so why are you making a post? Personal development is a life long journey. Good for you that you don't care? lol

what do you do with girls who just wanna hook up... is there no way to convince that you might want something more? The only thing left is to get a second project girl?


And when you want to ask a girl out to something over text and IM, do you make some small talk first or get straight to it?

Women typically don't want to just hook up, and men who only want to hook up are typically emotionally broken

I see PUA as power, and like any kind of power it has the capacity to be used for good or bad. I'm not gonna be afraid to study it just because some douchebags use it irresponsibly and fuck up people's emotions. It's not game that's wrong; it's the player.

Edit: As for the drinking discussion earlier, I very rarely drink enough to get drunk and I have a higher success rate (and hotter girls) than my friends who always get hammered... one of my buddies pointed that out and now he doesn't drink either when he's trying to game. In general drinking helps with approach anxiety but it makes you sloppy and less perceptive.
There are two kinds of people in this world: people who say there are two kinds of people in the world and people who know the first group of people are full of shit.

So this little promise I made to myself last week I fucking kept tonight. Did my best to just be social as fuck, didn't really care. Although it wasn't that hard, I knew a majority of the people at the party. Real shit is tomorrow.

But I also didn't really approach. I didn't have the urge to until the end, where I was talking to some chick I went on a double date with back in the day (and her friend). Basically, I just wanted to force myself to make conversation. And really, it went a lot smoother than I thought. A few awkward pauses here and there, but who gives a flying fuck.

My "problem" is now I feel pressured to talk to everybody. And make them have a good time. Shit is retarded. I dunno why, but that is the mentality I am getting and I don't like it. I shouldn't have to feel like I need to approach EVERYONE. Just who I fucking want to. But it is a fine line between that and being a bitch who is scared to make moves, and I rather do the former than the latter.

Also, didn't drink. NBD, I didn't want to. and I still had a good time. I wasn't saying it is impossible in my earlier post or something, and I probably won't be drinking too hard tomorrow either.

The cognitive dissonance, it burns. Don't try to bullshit yourself. The only reason you're trying to convince yourself that you're happy with your situation is because you're lazy and scared of reaching greater heights.

Agreed - we all have the freedom to develop and use (or exploit lol) it in the ways we see fit in our own beliefs.

With no power comes no responsibility?

There are many heights in life, some are great, some are smaller. Aspiring to be able to socialize with anyone is great, but it's rather a small peak in many possible achievements of life.

No.

Women want to hook up. If you havent experienced it, don't assume it doesn't exist.

No, I can pretty much socialize with anyone. Esp. if I put forth the effort. I've gotten compliments on how well I can keep a conversation, and the girls I was on dates with (Well at least one ) had a fun time due to only our conversation.

My problem is just feeling like I have to socialize with every single person in the vicinity. Which is just... dumb lol

If you don't like something about yourself, fix it so you like it. If you like something about yourself but the world says it's a flaw, stay the course.

Don't live to make a show for others, rather, live for yourself.

Welp, good time tonight. Went to a frat party (one of my chick friends has a boyfriend that goes there. Love them sorrostitutes lol)

Anyways, I met up with some chicks that dance (ballerinas) there and start dancing with one of em that I was talking to last year. then she left since school ended. We danced and talked for awhile. I was trying to get a little mouth action besides words, but she either didn't get it, or I wasn't assertive enough. But I wasn't about to try and force shit on a drunk chick when I was dead sober. Or I'm just bein' a bitch.

On another note, dancing is somewhat dumb. I rather of chilled and talked. But I am happy with how my conversations go when I'm one on one. Some awkward pauses every now and then, but few and far between. I can really keep a conversation flowin'. And keep 'em somewhat sexual. Probably need to up it a little bit more, just depends on my mood. Not something I'm concerned with at all right now.

Keep a decent amount of kino. I'm pretty decent at it. Had my hand on her lower back a lot.

On a side note, the things I would do to her roommate. Gat dayum. Caught her staring once. But I'll take it one dancer at a time.

This interested me. I don't know if this has been discussed before in this thread, but what is the protocol when she's been drinking and you haven't?

I never drink, period, but feel kind of dirty approaching a girl who's been drinking and it is clearly affecting her somewhat. Also scared I'll get accused of taking advantage of her or something.

What do others in this thread think? Would you happily try to bag a drunk girl, if not, how sober do they have to be? Do you need to be drinking too?

Apparently touching your partner's back while dancing is called kino these days and it takes certain skill to try.

Can't get enough of this moral dilemma - we are here to trick bitches into having sex with us by mindfucking them into a state of confusion, meanwhile we are feeling unsure about proceeding while some of them get tipsy! How the fuck all those PUAs find sober chicks at night clubs without ruining their image by taking the "easy" way?

Oh wait, didn't you mention trying to make out with that drunk chick and getting rejected?

Eh, if she gets drunk and gives in to your advances that's her own fault.
Well, now I tell you, I never seen good come o' goodness yet. Him as strikes first is my fancy; dead men don't bite; them's my views--amen, so be it.

We were outside talking when all this went down. Why the hell would I have my hand on her back when we're dancing? Lol. We were inside dancing, then went outside. And I only meant I didn't find it awkward to initiate any kino like some guys do when we were chilling and talking. I don't need excuses to find ways to initiate it, I just do it.

Also, I didn't get rejected. I didn't go in for a kiss because, like I said, she was drunk and I wasn't. And I don't "trick bitches" into sex by "mindfucking them into a state of confusion" as you so eloquently put it. I'm not even sure what led you to say that to be honest man.

It's amazing how far the basic concepts can go here - A little social proof, a little qualification, a little teasing, a little escalation... and I have no idea the term for it, but keeping game going across multiple "encounters" - seeing her one night, having a good time, seeing her the next weekend, having a hell of a lot BETTER time, etc. Let a girl know (without saying it) that you realize just how much power you hold on to in any interaction, and she melts on you.

Carried around a box of Franzia with my halloween costume last night; strapped it over my shoulder with my guitar strap and a wire coathanger, it was magic. Instantly made me the most popular guy at each of the three parties I was at - and I was laughing and having fun the whole time, letting whoever drink. I had the personality to back up what was going on around me, so I basically WAS the party last night. I was invited back to two different girls rooms, and I've been reminded by people I don't even know, about plans that I made with them for the coming week. Made quite the impression on friends and strangers alike... and the two girls I'm interested in right now enjoyed the night to. I didn't get to spend much time talking to either of them because I was busy "going where the night took me" but I can't say that that was a mistake anyway.

I'd say that if you get her drunk for the purposes of sleeping with her then yeah it's wrong. But if she's already drunk it's probably okay. That being said, I just avoid the whole dilemma by not going after drunk chicks; I'm not really into sloppy, puking, blackout drunk girls no matter how hot they are. Classy's the way to go.
There are two kinds of people in this world: people who say there are two kinds of people in the world and people who know the first group of people are full of shit.

You feel kind of dirty at the idea because you have a conscience, so +1 for that. You can approach a drunk and get some kind of conversation, but the conversation will probably be stupid.

I wouldn't hook up with a drunk because I want someone to actually hook up with me because they think I'm awesome - not because they're super drunk and would hump any guy in sight. I think it's different when both parties are drunk, but if a hookup occurs when one person is sober and the other is drunk there's definitely some shady grey area "taking advantage of" crap going on that's just not worth it.
