The term "direct game" gets thrown around a lot here. But what exactly does it mean to "just go direct?"

Direct game is a very misunderstood concept here in our little community and its time for that to change. Its unfortunate but people seem to treat direct game (and "going direct") to be some sort of tactic to use on women. This is horribly false.

Another good example of how direct game is misunderstood is how people have canned direct openers. Once upon a time I used to guilty of this as well. I used to approach women and be authentic and tell them exactly what I felt about them in that moment. It was authentic and real, never planned. 100% authentic feelings. Then, in order to streamline the opening process I came up with a canned "direct" opener. When I did that, opening wasn't quite the success it used to be, that is, until I reverted back to being pure authentic. And thats what direct game truly is...

Being Authentic and 100% genuine in your intent, thoughts, and actions.

You can be doing direct game even if you open with a situational opener. Opening asking a chick for an opinion can be direct too so long as you actually want her opinion about something. (example: I was watching a debate on CNN at a coffee shop and I looked over and asked a chick which side of the argument she liked best)

Direct game isn't some tactic you use, direct game is about expressing your true desire and being shameless about it. Its about being authentic and real with both yourself and the woman.

I'll say it again...

Being direct is about expressing your true desires and being shameless about it.

Thats direct game. Its not a line, its not a tactic. Hope that helps to clear up some of the confusion and misconceptions.

Good post man, I advocate being direct as soon as possible in your pick up career. I never have done any canned routines or openers, but I think it's okay to use them as a starting foundation to build confidence with cold approach and such. However I think it's good to go direct and natural as soon as you have built comfort with yourself with approaching..

why? because its a lot more genuine. you arent using someone else's lines off of the internet, instead you allow yourself speak from the real you. no faking allowed.

key component: sexuality

I absolutely love being sexual and direct because it weeds out girls who arent attracted and moves the escalation along MUCH faster. "damn! you sexy" while spinning her around (yes its a "routine") is a simple direct opener

relates to: cavemanning

getting physical with a girl is easy if you allow yourself to and view it as being normal. there is no reason that you can't be touching her thigh and holding hands after five minutes. only you limit yourself.

someone asked for example: this last weekend i was practicing my caveman skills, one girl was really liking it so i escalated. I basically would walk up smile, wrap my arm around her and look onto the crowd WITH her. then i would ask how's she doing to calibrate acoordingly. she might be like ummm wtf, or giggle and say hi. then grab her hair and smell it like i want to F her. then calibrate off of this. escalating is easy if you are present enough to feel her emotions, whether she is down or not.

shows: confidence

how many guys have the confidence to sexually escalate on a girl that they just met at the bar? even if you do get blown out, you still showed that you had balls and that you arent the guy who likes to sit there and chat about school and work for 30 minutes before even remembering that she is a woman with tits and an ass

No, its about being direct.

Indirect = you 'happen' to meet and 'happen' to get with each other almost. Done through social proof, opinion openers, negging, etc.

Direct = you go straight up to her or friends and make it clear that you are their to either enjoy their/her company or get with her (or them ).

All this esoteric stuff sounds silly, overcomplicating it all doesnt help anyone.

Lets look at how I defined direct game...

"Being direct is about expressing your true desires and being shameless about it. "

Seems we both agree on what direct game is.

Not really.

Why is every pua always so extreme minded. you can be honest and shameless about it but you don't have to be.
