What I wrote in my edited post:

If I smile at a girl as I walk into a bar and she smiles back thats an IOI. If I walk past a girl in a bar and say 'hey' and she returns 'hey' back thats an IOI. I find it funny for someone who supposedly studies human behaviour to dismiss these small signs.

I can't put it any simpler. Seeing a girl smile back as anything BUT an IOI may need an attitude change from pessimistic to optimistic anyway

It was the fact that you made it seem every time, that was my issue with it, broad spectrum statements when it comes to body language are wrong. There will always be exceptions, anyone who studied behavior would know better than to make such a broad statement no?

Yes it's good to be optimistic but it's bad to make absolute statements when they really are in general. You limited the landscape of your statement, once you gave more detail things changes. It's wrong for you to see me as incorrect when courtship is seen everywhere from the grocery store to class to work to anywhere, not just the bar. If your courtship experiences are limited to the bar I can certainly see your standpoint however behavior should always be looked at in context, leaving it out of context creates mistakes like this.

I didn't make it seem everytime. Would anyone so seriously take a smile from a 60+ year old in a wheel chair as a direct IOI? It's the context in which you take it. This being a PUA forum I thought it was pretty obvious that if you smile at a chick (she's probably ones target) and she's smiles back that's a good thing. We're not talking a little girl with an ice cream getting a smile from an elderly lady cos she's cute. geeeez azzzz. The context is PUA!!!

To ANYONE reading this. If you smile at a chick your interested in and she's smiles back, HIT HER UP! If you think she's not interested in you from the smile she gives back and that stops you from approaching - you will always be beta.

I really think staying positive and having that mentallity is good when your sarging but saying its an IOI is wrong. There would be way more body language that needs to be included with a smile to say that its any kind of IOI. Especially in day game.

Walk up to a random girl and smile at her, then ask her if she smiled back because she is attracted and interested in you or if she was just being polite.

I've been hit on by the 60 year old woman in a wheelchair it is pretty similar to a smile and eye contact but then there is a more added to it, attraction with younger women is no different. They still preen, show submission, and make eye contact.

PUA is not a context, are you serious? Do you understand the definition? How I pick up a woman at a grocery store is different than a restaurant, Las Vegas Strip, or the club all are different context, her body language changes to this particular situation. You also need to take into consideration all of the body language guidelines including consistency, congruency, idiosyncratic behaviors, timing, base lining, your information is far too limited ignorant and uneducated for me to allow you to leave these on the forum and not correct your asinine remarks.

It's good to be positive and tell them hell go approach it's not like a smile is a bad thing but don't lie to them and say smiling and saying hey is a good IOI when in reality it could mean shit but proper public human behavior.

I'm not saying your are wrong every time but if you just learn to read attraction by way of body language you would understand when it is true and when it isn't.

Your statement was exactly this:
LOL that is not in PUA context, that seems to be referred to everyday interaction. Just saying you made a broad statement admit it and move on.

I just want you to realize IOIs are different just between day and night game, which is why I prefer to just learn to read body language, I don't want to say to some kid oh she liked you , she said hi and smiled. That's a bullshit statement, Some women are always smiling.

Oh yeah and you may be saying shit to me but at least I had the respect of the poster to actually read the post, while you just went on rambling your opinion before you even gave him the courtesy of a minute and half more to read his post. You should learn to communicate better it will help with all these communication issues.

We don't know what you are thinking when you say it or where you are coming from, so best to be more detailed especially if you are too rude to actually read the post.

I'm done chatting with you about this, good luck in all your pua endeavors.

Peace

Vic
