I am curious how many others are like me.. I am 37yrs old guy who worked in the computer industry..

At one time, I thought of seduction as something of an art and spend allot of time "perfecting" it. My first interest was the "Art of Seduction" by Greene, but countless books and techniques followed. I used to be broke all of the time, and being a thin frame didn't help, so seduction techniques no doubt helped. However, because of a couple great decisions when I was younger, money is a hell of allot easier now, which makes the "game" allot easier. Truly don't care, invite the girl to simple lunch at St. Thomas courtesy of the private aircraft, and I have found that even married women rarely say no. They typically do not even bring up their marriage and/or long time bf even if you invite them on a weekend gettaway. I would never consider these a "long term" potential, but they were allot of fun for feeding the ego years ago. Im not trying to put this in anyones face as I suspect if you are reading this that you are much more attractive and skilled than I am, but I am just stating the facts as I know them.

Here is the question... Money or No Money... As one gains allot of experience and figures out how the attraction process actually works (short term fantasy / long term comfort), for better or worse I think one looses all respect for sexual relationships and the process of dating in general. Meaning, I have an enormous amount of girl friends whom I can talk endlessly over a couple bottled of wine, but the pursuit of sex and/or a relationship is really not that appealing anymore. Its not a sad result as I really do not "long" for anyone, but I am just wondering if we should form some sort of Post PUA recovery group?? Anyone out there feel similar?

Jeez man, i can't say i really agree. I know my standards have hone as high as possible since I've started PUA. Which as a result, i no longer desire a relation ship with a girl that i don't find perfect. But in no way has it killed my enthusiasm.

I respect your reply, but I wonder if it doesn't prove my point. Define "perfect"? Is it an emotional NLP response to what you perceive she is? (aka short term fantasy trap)...

Relationship wise, I can certainly understand your desire to look for the "perfect" women, but one universal truth I think I am coming the conclusion of is that there is not as much difference among women (or men) as one would think. Even the best of women (and men) have significant secrets. Also, so what is a pretty face and/or a great body worth? After you date a couple, for me personally it is not worth much. A great personality? Friends are much easier to manage in this respect.

Let me put it this way... This New Years I am taking a couple friends of mine, a brother, and my father to europe for a week, and like other trips I expect it to be a great time. For me personally, rarely (if ever) can a relationship / gf compare in terms of enjoyment. I am still exploring this thought, I can't help but think that somewhere somehow something has been lost in the process of trying to learn about how the attraction process works. Something akin to a Pandoras box being opened.... However, I fully accept the idea that maybe I am just an idiot...

Your thoughts on this are very much appreciated, however...

You're being shallow minded if you say you've seen all the personality traits out there, and say none of them catch your attention enough to be excited about a relationship. A perfect relationship would be where both people energize each other and accelerate each others reality beyond what is possible if they were just on their own.

Nothing is perfect in life, but we can get close enough to it to be truly satisfied. Try going out and approaching as many girls as you can, don't stop until you meet one you mind significantly interesting, it's bound to happen that you'll find one.

Im sure you are probably right. I am shallow minded and probably not as bright as most to begin with... I appreciate your reply, however...
