I'm curious what level of intoxication you guys prefer when trying to pick up girls at night time. Lets not make this harder than it has to be by responses like "well it depends on whether I'm with my friends and the phases of the moon, etc..." So, which is it? and why?

I perform my best when I'm pretty drunk because at that point I have absolutely no fear of rejection, approach, and am at my most social. I also am having a lot of fun which is attractive to women. I have my inner game pretty solid so the fact that I can't recite routines or whatnot does not really make too much of a difference.

When I go back home for Christmas and when I am done college, I fully intend to master my ability to enter states and sarge sober. Sarging sober has the most potential I feel, but I don't think I am at that point in my life yet.

I'd have to go with tipsy. When I'm out, I don't feel right if I go to a bar and don't have at least a few drinks - the point is that you're in a drinking establishment, and I personally like booze. To me, going to a bar and not drinking is like going for dinner to a steakhouse and just ordering salad... Still, I recognize that my game turns to absolute shit if I'm loaded. I usually make a conscious decision before going out as to whether it's going to be a piss-up or a pick-up night; if it's the latter, I usually try to pace myself with a mild 4-5 drink buzz. If the sarging doesn't look like it's panning out for whatever reason (struck out, bar's dead, etc.), I usually just go back to my friends and load up on the booze, or if I'm solo, call it a night. Of course, it drives me nuts when I've flipped the switch into full-drink mode only to walk right into the perfect opportunity later in the night...

And as for other drugs, I HATE getting high beforehand. I'm a pretty laid-back guy to begin with, so weed just makes me sluggish and a complete non-factor. The only exception is if the girl is also sparking up too, but otherwise I see it as an end-of-the night thing.

About to click tipsy but I think sober is better. I hate being out of control drunk so sober I can still have fun banter without pause. Tipsy is better for when your shit scared of opening and drunk is better when you really dont give a shit and need to release...

I try and not to drink when i got out because i know that its giving you confidence that's not natural. Its better to develop your confidence when sober rather than rely on alcohol.

Tipsy is the way to go.
