I've done a lot of research and practice with pua. I feel like I really would get better if I had something like a coach to analyze my game specifically, but I have yet to spend money on pua. Is it really worth it to spend $ on a workshop and/or instruction or could I still reach the level I want without spending? (kiss closing, sex, relationships)

What have your experiences been with this sort of thing?

Hey Olliebar3,

The art of a PUA is highly subjective and is open to SEVERAL interpretations. I say this because you're going to have a massive amount of 'experts' tell you a wide array of information on women. At the end, your success will depend on what exactly your goals are, and how much effort you put in to achieving them.

That being said, everything, literally everything, you need to know on seducing, attracting, dating, and getting laid can be found via online or books. If you want a coach to analyze your game, there are millions out there right now--women. If you talk to 10 girls per day, and break it down, you can easily begin to see areas that you need to improve and areas that you are stuck, i.e., opening a conversation with ease, but not creating enough comfort to get a number or vice versa.

If you really want to be critical of your 'game,' purchase Straus's 30-Day Challenge book, and go through it. While I am not a fan of his indirect techniques, the book does force you to thoroughly assess yourself in every possible way from how fast you speak, to how you dress, and ways to create a eventful calendar.
Complete this book (maybe 20$), and if after those 30days you feel you need to a coach, then go for it.

Hopefully this helps,
Samex

The way I see it, like Samex said, all the information you need is online and in books. Likewise, all the experience comes from actually getting out there and talking with women and friends. The road is your own and you must learn it in your own way no matter HOW you learn it. BUT the case of the matter is that people learn differently. For some people, they can absorb, interpret and translate into the field, all the information they need from the internet. Others need hands on advice, information, and examples. Some need a motivational push from a real human being and some yet need them from experts. If you feel like you are bogged down in a whole from which you can not progress technically, emotionally, or mentally, I would advise seeking hands on help. You certainly may find what you need in a symbiotic wingman situation. I would highly advise you to find a few wingmen and see if none of them cannot help your situation. Otherwise, if all else fails, you might have to consider trying to seek professional help from a workshop/bootcamp/infield lesson and see if you improve better in such an environment. Is it worth the money? If it simply is the way it takes for you to improve or at least give you a nice push start so to speak, then I would say of course it is worth it. But I am sorry to say that only you can ultimately decide what is right for you. Peace and good luck.
