I don't post often but I try to read this forum whenever I can. The 'pick up' lifestyle has always been interesting to me. I first read 'the game' several years ago and while that is obviously an extreme of the lifestyle it fascinated me.

Bond, I appreciate finding someone who understands seduction while still respecting womyn. I find it is a rather rare thing and the fact that it is so rare has kept me out of the 'community' of PAUs. Picking up on womyn isn't just about scoring. A lot of times, especially for me, it is a bridge to hopefully connecting with the opposite sex when it may otherwise not have happen.

I lacked confidence for many years. I would not consider myself a super attractive man. Maybe a 6.5 or 7. Maybe less. I'm only 5'8". Not fat but not in great shape. Some womyn think I am cute and some don't. Who knows, and to be honest, who cares? People call a lot of seduction techniques tricks. However, a true and honest person uses such techniques as an opportunity to show a womyn, who otherwise might not give you the time to do so, what type of person you are. I have had a tremendous amount of luck with meeting womyn since learning techniques and developing confidence as a result of studying the techniques of other people.

Once a man understands that attraction can be created in many ways, they can overcome shyness or a lack of confidence and give themselves a chance to meet people and improve their quality of life. As has been said before, the single most effective technique in meeting womyn is personal development. You don't have to think of crazy opening lines or way to keep the conversation if you are truly an interesting person and if you are genuine in the things you say.

You will have a lot of men in pick up telling you that backhanded compliments and making womyn try to work for your approval is the way to go. I disagree. Respect and consideration is refreshing to most womyn. Just remember that there is a clear difference between that and begging or coming across desperate.

Finally, one of the greatest piece of advice I was every given is that, when you get shot down or a womyn you meet isn't interested, you can't take it personal. If you meet a womyn in a bar and she turns you down, she isn't making a decision about you. She doesn't know you and maybe she isn't willing to get to know you. She is making a decision based on very very limited information. I keep this in mind whenever a conversation doesn't go well with a womyn. She isn't turning me down. She is turning down the 10 minutes worth of information she has on me. No one can know what I am all about in that period of time. All you can do is to put yourself in the best position to allow this person to get to know things about you.

I think a lot of my confidence in approaching womyn is that my goal is to not go home with them or even get a phone number when approaching. My goal is to figure out if this particular person is someone who I would be interested in talking to. If I get a number or something happens. If not, well that's okay too.

Bond, as a fellow 2p2er and a wbAFC, i would like to ask you to post a picture of yourself.

A good picture please?

Grunching quite a bit here, but I have a question.

One thing really stood out for me. You got 100+ numbers, but only had sexual contact with ~18 girls. You seem to actually know what you're talking about, so can you shed some light on what happens with the other ~82? I'm definitely the type of guy who has absolutely 0 game, but bumbles through decent numbers just by looking good and being confident, but I understand I err way too much on the side of setting up dates and hook ups when it's already a certainty. As such, I'd say my number to hook up ratio isn't too much higher than 1.5:1 or so. Based on your experience, I'm a little concerned that there's not tons of productivity in getting those additional numbers, so what gives?

LOL I didnt even realize I coach at the same sight as this dood, time to hire a new coach imo.

Thank you very much for helping us!

Where is it better to look for some dieting programms?
I feel like I need a diet to make my skin better and gym workouts more effective, but have no idea about dieting

Nice post.

Question:
Do you feel that you have surpassed James Bond in the art of seducing women?

fyp

bump

standard procedure ldo

As a female, I would just like to say that in my experiences from when I was single:

It is easy as **** to tell an honest guy from a "pick up artist", and the latter are always lame and a waste of time.

As a male, I would like to say that "pick up artists" have way more sex than the rest of us.

That's not saying much at all... Sorry.

You're funny...

Do you ever go further than blowing the kiss?

LOL


No, I meant do you ever actually interact with the females you are "in" with further than that?

**** kissing, you should have had sex with her.

creepers

There is nothing dishonest about a pickup artist. This is as stupid as saying you wouldnt read a book by an author. Its just someone who has become skilled at the art of social interaction, specifically geared towards the opposite sex.

Bond, what are you thoughts on negging? I know some PUA don't really like doing it. I on the other hand like to try and push as far as possible without offending and getting away wih it.

I met one nice girl who recently had done some nerve damage to her shoulder and couldnt lift her right arm anymore. She was pretty upset about it because she couldn't play national level sport anymore. I asked her to give me a "high five" - managed to hook up with her later that night.

Also met a German when I was traveling, when I found out she was German I did a nazi salute to her, managed to get with her too.

I reckon it shows you have some balls/ confidence and are willing to saying anything you want and not give shi t.

I probably has back fired on me on few occasions though.

wow...some of that stuff isn't negging at all. It's just plain rude, especially the nazi thing.

Mr Folding can be the new Bond18. Oh wait he's in a relationship.

what is this i don't even

I even less

Where is pickup?

Also, props to the guy from 7 years ago asking about negging. Just wow.
