99 Problems

Benjamin Franklin, our ambassador to France in the 1700's, had put on some weight since his last visit.

A woman said to him "Benjamin! What would you say if that belly was on a woman?"

He smiled politely and replied "Madam, twenty minutes ago this belly WAS on a woman."

Are people getting more attractive?

You've heard it a million times before. "I wish girls looked like that when I was that age."

You've heard it from thirty year old guys and seventy year old guys.

Are people in fact getting more attractive?   Let's take a look.

Here's a pic of an average office party with regular people from the twenties.

We've noted most of the dating age people with attraction scores based on the most common 1-10 scale.  Zero is a monster, five an average person, seven attractive with no obvious physical flaws (solid gf/bf material for most people), and ten being a model.

 

Note that the AVERAGE attractiveness in the room is 6.4.  

Now let's take a look at a modern office party:

Now we find that the average is 5.78.

So are people really getting more attractive, or are there simply so many more people in the population that the rare models/tens are a larger group of people, of which there are now plenty to fill up all the advertising and popular programming you watch?  

The numbers are almost identical if you round them out.  If you're at a bar or club, there will always tend to be more attractive people because as a rule the least attractive people don't feel comfortable in a place that is so looks conscious.

So when you're feeling like you're the ugliest person in the world, remember that YOU are the majority. This means that MOST girls are perfectly in your league.  The further you reach up out of your league, the tighter your game has to be.

The Bachelor Life's Guide to Cockblocking Your Buddies

There are some unwritten friend rules that guys have to live by.

One of the lesser known ones is the beer goggle cockblock.

If you see your buddy wrapped up in the tentacles of a monster, PULL HIM AWAY.

He will get upset.  He will want to fight you. He will tell you to fuck off. Pull him away anyway. He will thank you tomorrow.

Now, this sounds like an easy thing to do, but it can be tough. You just push through that mental bullshit that will hit you like "He's a big boy, he can handle it." or "Damn, that is SO FUNNY." It's NOT funny. When your buddies are messing around with monsters, it devalues YOU. Maybe not at this party, but the next one.

People remember that your "group" has that guy in it that nailed that monster. If you think girls don't know who's fucking who, and who is friends them, then you're kidding yourself. Don't lose the friend, save him.

Here are some helpful examples:

Being Goofy

If you boil pickup and seduction down to the absolute root base, it's this:

Become and expert in how to feel good.

Feel good yourself, and people will gravitate to you. Be an expert in making them feel great about themselves and being around you in general, and you will succeed in women, work, life, and everything else.

Being goofy and fun is not lowering your value, it's increasing it because you are increasing the good feelings surrounding you and them.

Here are some pictures to get you in the proper goofy, fun mood.

Ten dollar date flowchart

So you're still paying off Christmas, or you're smart and just bought that car/motorcycle because they are cheapest this time of the year.

OH NO!! A Date!! And she's cute!! What to do???

I suggest you take filife.com's advice and consult the below ten dollar date flow chart. It is TBL approved.

An American tragedy

This picture sums up a lot of what's wrong with America.

If you see this happening, or you see your sister/friendgirl stuck with a bunch of monsters, try to at least invite her out to get her away from them. If someone doesn't, she's going to get sucked into that self reinforcing negative energy circle and turn into a monster with them.  These people love nothing more than taking a halfway normal/cute girl and dragging her down to Hell with them.

Mistakes? What mistakes! ;D

Be not ashamed of mistakes and thus make them crimes.

Confucius

Occasionally, we all make mistakes. You'll say the wrong thing. You'll think of nothing to say, and later l'esprit d'escalier kicks in. I promise you, it doesn't matter.

These "mistakes" form the basis of greatness, invention and mastery. Your aim? Forgive yourself for any past mistakes, and conquer them! Take some classes, read some more posts, get out in the field, and do it again :D

In my early days of Day Game, I sucked! I'd approach, ask for directions, and try and hook from there. I was stuck! For all my confidence, I could not see the mistake I was making. I had to step back, return to my social circle, and observe... The key? Not the opener. Not the speech. The smile.

After a short break, I retried. I approach the same quality of sets, in the same location. I held conversations, kept it light hearted and completed by first Day Game #close.

At the moment, I'm writing a free downloadable guide for you guys on Social Circle game, and I'm working on a project of my own ;)
