pickup artist books, guides...

TrueLove · Nov-13-2009, 06:06 PM

i dont know how many people here has read any pickup artist books, guides, or has seen dvd's of it, but my question is

do these methods work only for adults? or does it work for teenagers too? like seducing girls and all those things...

Be yourself. Go out and meet knew people, hold conversation and you will find someone. There is not trick or secret into finding a partner. You can't just magically 'seduce' a girl, doesn't work that way, sorry.

You can't just expect sex and love to come to you.
You must work hard for it.

Probably works on older teenagers like 18+
read "The game" by Neil Strauss. It's a pretty interesting read. Havent quite finished it yet though..

All that is misogynistic. Just be normal and date women, instead trying to pick them up for casual sex.

Its true, the only times i have ever had casual sex is when the woman has been looking for it, what im trying to say is that both parties have to be interested and looking for the same thing theres no trick to seducing a possible partner into it.

They are scams and 99 times out of 100 they won't work. Like others said just be yourself, get in a relationship, That's your best bet

I'm pretty sure those are scams like others have said. And I highly doubt one can achieve that by just reading a book or watching some sort of tutorial.

I'm just going to put this out there.

The Game, by Neil Strauss is one hell of a read, not an instruction manual. However, yes, a few things he listed in there truly do work. What he wrote about: "negs" and "takeaways" works always, assuming you don't over do it.

Not to mention what he wrote about "IOI's", explaining when you can tell they like you, etc. The best advice he gave in that book was to always do the opposite of other guys, ALWAYS, simply because you will stand out as being different.

As for them being scams, no. They do give you valuable advice about confidence, etc. To be honest though, there are better "gurus" then Strauss. Theres a guy who uses the handle name "juggler", he is by far the best as his whole "method" revolves entirely around spontaneity and developing yourself into the most interesting person out there, personally I find that far more interesting.

Yeah, I recommended that book because of the experience he goes through.
It's not a PUA manual though initially it seems that way. Give it a go
