I do this all the time and it works. When I have a conversation going and then I have nothing to say I just say her name in kind of a playful and mischievous way and then smile and look at her. Then when she asks, "What." I reply, "Nothing" in a joking way, and they always seems to IOI by asking something about me. And she starts responding better to our conversation.

Its weird since it doesn't really fit in any routine category I know.

That's an interesting approach and one I might have to try in order to understand why it might work.

You have a nice piece here and don`t worry if it doesn`t fit in any routine. What is important is that works! I guess you are naturally good with girls and just continue with your stuff!

I also lot of times use some things which are not written in any PU books but it works for me. Even some stuff that are written to be wrong, work very well. Maybe they don`t work when AFC`s try to use it as a canned stuff but when you naturally do them, they work fine!

Good stuff bro!

Just because something isn't written in a PUA book doesn't mean it isn't a valid technique. Honestly I use very few thing published in PUA books, because I don't like canned stuff and I prefer natural game. That doesn't mean that the psychology behind the techniques isn't valid, or that there isn't psychology at work behind your techniques, because that's all any of it is, psychology and social interactions.

I agree completly with your post. I would just add that people who just entered this scene often think that gyus/gurus that write PU books are greatist PUA`s alive and if they didn`t wrote about certain things then it for sure can`t work. That is a myth, cause, all of those guys had to read and practise all that stuff just because they were ungifted with natural game. I appreciate very much most of them, but being natural and doing things like one which Leogunz just mentioned is perfetcly fine.

Of course. Running natural game is great, but it IS only gonna work if it is psychologically sound.

Like you say, those gurus had to read stuff to become gurus (aside from the ones that are naturals), that's why I love reading what they read and seeing what conclusions they drew by reading what they wrote and then coming to my own conclusions.

Thank you for the feedbacks. I do think I have some natural game going on. I naturally like making fun of women. Saying how dorky their laugh sounds, like and all that, but one thing I have found useful in the Pick Up Arts is they helped me find certain limits. I used to sometimes overly make fun of girls until I looked like a total jerk. Now I just do it in moderation, and learned the push pull method which made it way more effective.
This smile thing however, is interestingly effective. I want to know if you guys have anything like this that you can just blurt out randomly when in a conversation because I'm a very random guy. One time I greeted a girl on our first date by saying "peanut butter," and she kept laughing her ass of whenever she's reminded of it.

Great stuff Leon. Sounds like you have the natural game going on.

You can almost anything to a woman within reason, and have it received well if it's delivered with eye contact, and a smile.

I'm reminded of the saying 'it's not what you say, it's how you say it that counts.' And of course all women love attention.

One thing I like to tell guys is to not be so serious around women. And especially not take yourself so seriously (something I had a problem with years ago). After all, girls just want to have fun. And if you can have fun, they'll gladly join you.

Thanks starbuck. We seem to have the same priorities. Having fun is really important for me when talking to a girl, otherwise I just don't the vibe of energy between us and I get bored, soon she gets bored, unless she's really into me or something.
