This post is no way intended to attack people. I think the community is great because without it, I would still be holding down a shitty job with no girlfriend and probably would still be a virgin (ugh, that would suck).

Additionally, when I say mentors, I'm not referring to just PUA instructors and gurus but ALSO your AFC pals, friends, family, etc ....

I recently spoke to a friend who started to advise me on how I was wrong to approach women the way I do. He proceeded to tell me all women in clubs, bars, restaurants that go to find men are whores and you know such especially if they have tattoo's (as tattoo = whore). He has been single for a very long time. He mostly stands in the corner with a drink and never talks to women. Personally, I think he is gay.

I recently spoke with a friend of a friend who did a bootcamp with an (will remain anonymous) instructor in vegas. This gentlemen apparently hired prostitutes for the guys to practice their material on. The fellow students were impressed as all his material worked and had great response from the women saying they were quite arroused by what the students were saying. He was paying the girls, they are going to say and do whatever you want them too (as they are prostitutes being paid $$$). I would have simply walked up pointing to my dick and gestured to suck. I would have coined it "The Sucky Approach". As a side note, you can pay a hooker $350 in vegas for 2 hours for ANYTHING. She would even appear in a porn video for you, upload it to your seduction blog and make people think you are the best PUA in the world. I do not recommend this as shortly there after certain bodily parts will itch and eventually fall off.

So all I am saying here guys is know about your mentors:
- Have they achieved what you want to achieve?
- Are their goals similar to yours?
- If they are a PUA, why did they get into the community?

"If you want to become rich, why would you ask a homeless guy?"

Rather than looking at the above said.

Go to meetings and find out which instructor ACTS like the way he teaches.

Guys that teach stuff but aren't the stuff will be noticed earlier than looking at the marketing page of same said guys.

You can't always tell unless you ask questions! Unless you mean going to meetings and asking questions?
