Just like most of you I found out about the game, It had the premise that your looks, wealth, social status have nothing to do with scoring chicks. This astonished me, almost my whole life ive lived around women. Parents divorced, lived with my mom and sister.My sister has always been a social person so there has always been a fair share of HBs around the house, but I never really learned how to talk to them. Showing interesting in girls was somewhat shunned in my family for some reason. Thus making me socially inept when it comes to girls. The game shortly became my savior, the promise that through carefully examining the females mind could lead to an infinite supply of pussy just by doing the exact opposite of what modern society has told you to do. Ive slowly started taking on more and more PUA information, once I reach the point where I have absorbed enough information I will go out and use it to my advantage. To be fully honest, i have huge inner game problem. Throughtout my whole childhood I have been shit on by peers and my father, leading me to not be secure with myself. So im slowly conquering my inner game and building myself up to get enough courage to approach girls and run my game.

So how did you discover the PUA lifestyle? Why did you stick with it instead of just saying "this is a pile of bullshit"?

last summer, (i just graduated) my brother comes home from university and for his birthday asks for Neil Strauss's 'the Game' and tells me a bit about it cause a friend told him it was a hilarious book that apparantly worked. he gets it and i take a pick and start reading and it unlocks everything for me from there.

the reason why i stuck with it?
i was the nice guy. big AFC. always 'the friend', and i was convinced that id get my piece one day. but being the last year of highschool right around the corner and not really having that piece like everyone else around me i kinda grew frusturated and realized it wasnt just going to fall into my lap instantly like the movies or some shit. so i made some changes and then everything just kinda pieced together for me.

the only regret i have was falling too hard for a girl when i first found out about the game. i was so convinced that she would be my first accomplished target that had potential (the setting and everything seemed right), and i eventually developed one-itis. things worked great in the beginning but one day it just changed and i lost it all and she left me hanging and i went plummeting down. im still working out the kinks of caring for her but im doing a hell of a lot better now thats for sure and ive been moving on with other girls for a long time since. ive leanred my lesson, but still gotta keep an eye out.

regardless its pretty sick to have stumbled on this all

i ran across a guy talking about being a pickup artist on battle.net and i was having girlfriend problems so i googled it and came across a forum. i read alt.fast.seduction posts and then downloaded e-books.

I couldn't understand why some guys could always get whatever girl they wanted or when an ugly guy was with a hot girl. Im a good looking guy, but I would go out and sometimes get lucky, but would mostly go home alone. Basically I put picking up girls down to looks and looks alone.

Then I was a documentary on channel 4 (uk) about afc adam and some dude call the future, and then just searched the net for more info. I didn't dismiss it because I could see on the documentary that it actually worked

People always told me im good looking, and all the nice things, they always talk about me and compare others to me as to how good/smart/fit etc I am.
My mom always tried to cheer me up by saying " you are a nice guy, one day you will find a good girl"

Last year I was with 2 hot girls over the summer, Im originally from poland and when the came here, I had a car (2003 acura tls, real nice), im good looking, money, fit i work out and train in Taekwondo, the girls were so into me, one of them was a model and a nympho. she kept telling me about sex and would say things like "We can do this anywhere", she told me how many times she had a sex a day etc. We were hanging out in my uncles inground pool, went jet-skiing etc. and i never made a fucking move, fuck!!

But as day went by they became less and less interested in me to the point they completely lost interest and went for some dude that didnt have a car, couldnt speak english, had shitty job and overall couldn't even compare to me.

When one day i went on yahoo there was an article about dating tips, so im like fuck it, let me read it even thou its bs. So i read the article and im like well that makes sense, and when im about to close to window, i look down and c a comment that says. "Some of the shit in this article will not get you lay, you guys should try to search google for PUA."

So im like PUA? wtf is this shit, so i google and click on this website and when i saw this my whole world changed since that day, I look at the world with different eyes. I was saved. thank you jesus.

Really, what game? I used to play D2 and I know that me and my buddy would talk about PUA stuff while we did runs with other people in the game. If it was D2, do you remember who it was? lol :lol:

You guys are nerds lol :lol:

I got into this game by stumbling onto one of David Deangelo's internet ads in 2003. I subscribed to his newsletter because I was completely clueless about women and attraction. I THOUGHT I knew all about dating, but it was just from the knowledge I was spoon-fed through self-destructive social programming. I thought I had to supplicate to women to gain their approval so that I could earn access to their hearts and legs. Because of this mindset I was horribly unsuccessful and I KNEW that I was doing something wrong. In fact, I was so downtrodden that I was willing to learn from ANYONE who claimed to have the answers. I carried and still carry an empty cup when it comes to knowledge about women and dating.

What I read from David D made complete sense to me. In his newsletters and ebook he explained exactly what I've been doing wrong and WHY it's been wrong. I had epiphany after epiphany so I never thought of PUA material as bullshit. When I started seeing the results I'd been looking for, I had solidified my faith in the art.

I guess my previous lack of success just forced me to have an open mind so that I could look for answers. Combined with my already adventurous personality, I could never dismiss pickup as bullshit at any point.

I told some of my friends about David D and we studied his stuff together. One of my friends looked into other stuff and discovered "The Game" and showed it to me, which opened my eyes to the fact there was an entire community of men who followed the teachings of David D and other "gurus" with so many different methods and theories; it was like stumbling onto a gold mine.

I stumbled across DYD about 4 years ago and checked it out, but didn't really get into it, although it did help my delivery of things, cause I used to shit for being too cocky.

About a year and a half ago my old roommate lent me a copy of The Game and I decided to work on getting the skills. My roommates didn't want to work on it at all and made fun of me, so I didn't work on it so much after.

I ended up going to a music festival that is really easy to get laid at and couldn't hook up with a single girl, even though I had 1 in a tent beside me all weekend and she was interested. I came back, re-read The Game and found this forum, started dedicating myself to improving my skills and working on it in every interaction I was in and soon I realised that it was helping me with work and everything, not just girls. Eventually everything became first nature and I would have to think about stopping, instead of thinking about doing it. Stopping now is like choosing to get rid of one of your senses and I don't think you'd choose to be blind.

For me... I picked up the game and stuff just made sense.

I tried it out and crashed and burned for 2 months before getting it right. After the first close done exclusively done with PUA stuff I was hooked. Now I cant stop!

Once you go PUA you cant go... eehr you get it!

My two best friends are god given naturals. One has AA, but once he gets himself to talk to a girl, he is in the pants faster than anyone I know. The other is just smooth as silk, everything he does makes women wet, I shit you not.

Being around them made me feel immensely inadequate in my own skills. I managed to close a few here and there, but it was through sheer luck and drunkenness on her part. lol

so I started reading, and through my reading i found MM. at first i thought, this is great a guideline for picking up women. and I got to work, and i start closing, getting numbers, getting kisses, getting LAID...and I loved it...after awhile however I didn't feel right, I felt like I wasn't real...i felt like all this was just a big charade.

So i left the community for awhile to pursue other stuff. Starting reading about manhood, started realizing my distaste for a society that holds such emphasis on women, and i realized that I was a man and I shouldn't be ashamed of it. I realized that men and women (while equal under the law) are inherently different. and that a women should be working for your attention and not the other way around. I started not expecting anything from women. I started treating them just like anyone else. Soon that idea that I NEEDED women went away, and the truth came about...I like women around, I love sex, and I love the company, but I would be perfectly ok with myself if I didn't have it...that one idea alone has help me sooo much in my game.

Low and behold the PUA community was going through a similar change; those who felt the same started moving toward Vin Dicarlo's Natural Game, and I was surprised and I was proud...for the first time the PUA community wanted to be better than the sum of all it's parts. Guys cried out to want to be themselves and to learn the game and still keep their personality intact...They wanted to become real men.

So I came back, and here I am now. I believe in Natural Game and I believe it works if you have the right mindset.

Epic story made long, attempted to be made short...here I am.

I discovered PU from an old episode of MADE on MTV, looked it up and thought that it was complete bullshit. A few years pass... When I started my fitness and dropped about 100 lbs, I picked up 'The Game' around that time, I was touring Mississippi State and me and a buddy where looking at books. He picked up 'The Game' and I, a body language book. It just kind of took hold after I read the book and it clicked with all the inner game I had worked up due to my fitness. Double whammy! Knowledge of PU with only a little AA.

I stick with it because I've moved past the notion of doing PU strictly for the sake of women. They have now become somewhat of a byproduct of my daily life. The bad part is that I don't notice just how well I do and I hardly close because of this ignorance. :lol:

Well, tbh i worked a lot out by pure mistake :D However, as like all of you said i could never understand why what i understood of the world and how it worked (god bless "friends" and tv) with men and women dating didnt work in my life; and the bonehead who i confused daily got girls.

I cant say i have stuck with it yet.... i am still a newb. But like i said when i had worked out a lot of it by mistake i found it quick to pick up.... its a bad comparisson but its sorta like i know if i touched something hot it would hurt but i didnt know why until i was 12 :) (DAMN THOSE NERVES IN MY FINGERS AND THOSE OH SO SPARKELY FLAMES) hehe.

Anyways, i first found this forum when last year i saw a documentery on channel 4 (in england) which has been spoken about b4. Well, needless to say i know about things like NLP through my parents and then with the power of google, i end up here :)
