Thanks for your comment! Yeah, it does shed some light on the book and people within the circle.

As you have rightly pointed out, I think there are always 2 sides to the coin. Some people who take things to the extreme, and some who use the skills to enhance their current state, to help them become more successful in the dating game.

Sincerely,

I just wanted to make a quick comment. I am 27, 5 10 and relatively muscular slim build. Most tell me I look exactly like Orlando Bloom. I get one comment a day about it when one of his films is currently playing. I am latin and know who to dance like one too.

I am compassionate, spiritual, honest and fun and most women find it very easy to talk to me.(great this is sounding like an ad for a singles website).
Anywho, up to this point though, I have never had any success with women. None. I once dated a girl for 3 weeks. That is the closest thing I can call a girlfriend and I was 25 at the time. I have had two very close friends who over the period of 2-3 years I gradually fell in love with. They both promptly rejected me several times while I strived to remain friends and then foolishly had feelings arise after many months later at start the whole process over again.

Long story short. I heard about this pickup community. I was at first horrified by it and rejected that any of this stuff could be healthy or good or the like. I decided to read The Game of fun. Well here’s the final verdict. I sincerely tried some of the stuff from this community. It works even when I didn’t want it too. It’s helped boost my confidence to some degree because I figured I must have had some serious character flaw all of these years deep within if no one would even go out on a date with me.

My point: there are a lot of people in that community of men who are well…pigs or supoerficial and have no intergrity…just like there are women who are the same, who use similar superficial tactics to get men. But there are those out there who are good men who for whatever reason never understood how to approach women and properly show and develop proper attraction and interest in them(ever seen that movie “Hitch”?; Will smith put it perfectly “because going up to a woman and saying “I like you” doesn’t work)

Singers may have dishonest lives yet there music can still be terrific. These MPUA’s as they call them might be pigs but if they are helping just one wonderful guy out there learn to show how wonderful he is to another women, then maybe this stuff isn’t all that bad. Let’s face it. Men really do need help in this department. We do not read cosmo, pick up on body language and “signals” or get to talk about this with our “girl friends” about it, or start learning this stuff when we were 12.

Anywho, I hope this helps a bit.

Kind regards,

Dan.

Erm, I am assuming that RSS is a guy… anyway, it’s interesting that everybody who commented to this post is a guy.

Loong – I agree with you… to each her own… they have to take their chances. But I think all ‘nice guys’ can definitely up their market value by not being too ‘compliant’ to the girl’s each and every wishers.

Rudy – haha… I thought the bit you say about Middle East is really funny!

RSS – are you a PUA? You sound like you know what you are talking about! And yes, I have to agree that most of the characters were portrayed somewhat badly… I guess that is the power you have when you are the author.

And true… if it’s not working out, then we have to find out what we are not doing right, instead of keep going down the same route over and over again.

Once again guys, thanks for all your inputs!

I would like to add thought some of the top so called “mPUAs” are from Asia, and yes these methods are universal.

One last thing I would like to add is the reoccurring theme of “I just want to be myself”. If just being one-self (typical nice guy) and hypothetically this person was not getting dates then surely something has to change?

And as for women having this insane attraction to bad boys, blame it on hollywood and those romance novels for glamourising the ‘bad boy’ persona…

As for being a PUA, nah! I’d rather be myself…

That being said, if women want to go out with so called “Bad Guys” then they should. One can only grow through experience.

The same goes for the so called “Nice Guys” … just go give it a shot; after all experience is what you get when you do not get what you want. =)
