Hello, I would like to get some help from PUA's about some topics that I find difficult to understand.
First of all I want to say that I'm pretty smart guy, I have done my Software Engineering education and currently studying in med school. My problem is very simple, I don't find people (in general) interesting and it is pretty hard to make any conversation (at specially in club or similar place) with girl (or any person in that matter).
A little background:
I started studying and learning about PUA stuff like a year ago. Reason for that was plain simple - I wanted to close. So I did some browsing on this forum, picked up the Cube game, some other stuff as well. I went to bar and started gaming some women and one of them really was in to me so I did the Cube thing on her and later on I closed her. The thing is that I acted all the time, I acted as if I'm interested in what she is saying and so on... So basically I was not naturally myself at that time, I was just pretending.
So I'm a little confused here... Do you guys pretend to be interested in what women say to you or are you really interested? Is it normal what I did? Because lately I was in a club and I just found pretty hard for me to adopt to the environment and people around me. Most PUA's say that men put women in way higher value then themselves, in my case it's otherwise. I really am not interested in what she is saying to me and if she is working as some waitress or stripper she has no value to me whatsoever. I don't know why it is that but I would like to fix this.
First thing that pops in mind is ego-protection, sure, if some stripper will blow me away I will probably be pretty mad about it but then again I would not give a damn since she really is nothing compared to me (at least in my head).
So please help me guys, should I just pretend to be this fun guy who is interested in what women say and get laid because of that or somehow fix myself and just be who I am? Because I can pretend and lie to women, but I just want to know if it's normal "practice" or should I work on myself...
Yes, I do my absolute best to be genuinely interested in everyone. I try to maintain a curiosity about everyone, to listen intently to what they say and try to understand what it says about them. It helps me understand people better, gives me things to say to them, and makes my conversation skills stronger.
That said, you haven't been getting women when you're being "you." So do what works, and try to make that new you congruent with your personality.
