I was browsing the seemingly endless amount of books and dvd's available online.

Went to amazon to read reviews and I saw a repeated pattern. People commenting on say "the rules of the game" will say something like "not as good as the first one but it's a good checklist"

Or The Mystery Method was better, but this was a close second, or David Dengelos book was the best I EVER read.

see the pattern? No, not yet?

What dawned on me is that people read the books, like any other book. The value of the books is the content wouldn't you say? So why are people roaming from book to book, if the first book was so good, why did you read 10 of them?

Is it that, the material is not really practical in real life, but the books in general serve as a source of inspiration? I know it. Ive read some books and it gave a sense of comfort, like soon things will be different.

now im not saying there aint guys out there doing some of this stuff every night, but I'd be willing to bet that for many more(if they even bought the book) that it peps them up, and then goes to the shelf to collect dust, until the next piece of motivation comes around.

Why all the books, why all the methods, why does each author have 5 different series, ( I know why im being rhetorical)

I like simple practical advice, that doesn't require me turning my back on the people I already know and love, where they will wonder what the fuck happened to me, and acting like a total a hole, where I cant hold my head up in my own neighorbood.

so it seems to me that these books are a bit more on the fiction side. They take u away somewhere and make u think of the possibillties?

Huh?

Just because you learn different methods and see different
aspects from others does not make you a traitor. That's
like buying a pair of PUMA shoes and getting a Nike
sports top. You're getting 2 different things but
are generally intended for the same purpose.

In THE GAME, Style took lessons from Resputin and Hypnotica
because Ross Jefferies recommended them to him in order
to improve his inner self. RJ teaches NLP and the other
2 teach hypnotism etc...Do you think RJ was angry
in the end? NO. All that mattered was that Style
got the information and guidance in order
to improve and better himself.

Also, this comment is bullshit, pardon my french:
The books recommended by the community do serve a huge purpose
in helping others helping themselves. I've read other PU books
besides The Game...I've read Mystery Method (great), Ross
Jefferies (interesting!), MeHOW (Crazy but intriguing),
Gambler (smooth brother), SOUL (debonaire), Adam
Lyons (HELL YES! JACKPOT!)...all these books
have given me pieces of inspiration but they
have all given served in me helping myself
by me getting off my ass and approaching
or atleast trying to better myself.

I've also recently started doing The Stylelife Challenge
and after 3 days I approached 20 women, there is a
big justification in that to say that that book
does serve a practical use.



It all depends on how much you're willing to go and how
much you want to change in order to succeed. You can
read all the shit you want and watch all the videos
but if you don't go out and test out what you've
learned you'll never get improvement. No one
can do it for you, only you can do it for you.

And thats the bottomline CAUSE STONECOLD SAID SO.

Yes singers inspire other singers, actors inspire other actors...

that explains the authors motives, but it doest really explain why people are reading so many different methods, I mean the bottom line is to get women period. if mystery Method worked, and u got women, why are u reading the game, ross jeffries, David Wyngage etc.

Obviously they didnt get the results they wanted.

once u get them u got them, u dont need to invent thousands of ways to meet them. unless u are trying to patent a system of your own to make money with

How many different ways do u need to turn on a TV? two tops?

Well my question is, why not? Why not read more pickup
methods and techniques? Why not find new ways to
expand yourself and your mind instead of just
sticking to one thing? Surely you want a
change, a refreshment from the same
cycle.

The more you know, the better you become.

lol, well assuming your goal is to be sarging every night of the week, then yes u would need a change.

I think alot of part time PUA's would be content with one high quality, fuckin hot girlfriend.

Alot of guys are not interested in Hundreds or thousands. they want ANY woman.

For me, I want a quality woman where i can take with me anywhere, and have the option of keeping or sweeping

Good for you then.

When you find a song that makes you feel really good, do you stop listening to any other songs?

Most people are just waiting for some magic pill that is going to make things a lot easier.. Which is one of the major issues in our country today, no one whats to work for anything, We want it fast and easy, the same way we get our food.( Which brings up: When you find a Dish that makes you feel good and supplies your buddy with a great amount of energy do stop reading recipes and stop trying new food all together?)

Thats pretty good right there.

U do realize though that people on PUA forums makes up less than 1% of people who hook up though?

U make it seem as though the venusian arts are the only thing people care about.

I mean even Mystery and Neil Straus have other interests,,, THEIR MONEY!

Why not learn how to pick up women, and then go on with your life?

Im curious as to where you get your statistics...

And I find that the people that actually do learn how to pick up women consistently do go on with their lives or they write a book lol.. I'm sure you've noticed the forums are filled with guys wondering if they should send a text message or not.

Im interested in getting a 25-30 year old hot woman who will eventually marry me.

Im not really wanting to hook up with every flea bag at the club.

But I know the road to my ideal woman wont be paved with gold

Human nature really. Look back on when you wanted to learn something and went on a "quest" to find more info about it or learn more about it. That is what is going on here. People read up on one method, hear about another and go read up on that one and so on. But they also go and read up on stuff, like body language and what have you along the way.
Some of the material is practical in real life, tho most of the stuff there is theory and nothing more. This is not to say it can't be a source of inspiration, tho more hopefully to create your own method when it comes to gaming girls.
In my opinion you be far better off reading this forum than buying one of those books. I am not saying those books can't be useful as they do contain some good stuff. But as you notice they also designed so that the author behind them makes money and such they are ever so changing their "methods" to sell books and here on the forums you are dealing with people that actually go out and game girls and what have you. Yes there is theory talk here, but for the most part it's people talking about what to do in situation X.
In my opinion I would raise your age range to at least 35, more because you are going to have a better chance of finding a hot girl that will marry you in her 30's that late 20's as her clock is ticking. But on what you said on guys that are into PUA and what have you, I think your right that most do want to find a girl and get into a relationship with her I know I do. This is not to say there are not guys that want to sleep around and want to find better ways to do this. In my opinion the whole think behind PUA is to pick up girls what your end goal is, is up to you.

I think Virgin was pulling a number out of his ass. But he was more saying that a small percentage of guys actually get into PUA more than anything.

first, dont call me virgin, U woulda loved my exes, in fact, i wish u met them before I did

second, I wasn't pulling any number out of my ass, as u deduced, it was a generalization, are people really 99.99 % sure when they say that?

I meant a small percentage. Go to any bar around town, u wont see somebody wearing a huge dr seuss hat... or doing surveys

I used virgin as well thats the forum nick you used.

Couldn't have said it better...

I'm gonna have to agree with Fuze with the statistics bit too.
Virgin, where ARE you getting these stats from? No doubt
your blowing it out your ass and sucking the percentage
out your thumb so here's a solution to your problem...
