- it can work to solidify attraction and build minor comfort but the majority of would-be PUA's who use text to game make a hash of it and lose more woman then they gain from it.
It works great, you just need a correct approach. It isn't so good for 8-10's as those are mainly on for attention
- this is mostly true

Any thoughts on these books?
The Manual
Models: How to Attract Women through honesty
The Natural
Introducing NLP

Saw it, it's not that rich-content and he basically just teach how to configure your profile and a few openers.
Also "Online gaming is not a replacement for cold approaching".

I tried it once, get rid of it in a few days, it's just a waste of time and you don't know what kind of persons you are about to know.
If you go to a club you'll get the whole person and you can see if you want her or not. Also you have less changes of get killed or raped in the ass : )

I hate texting, when i approach a girl i can have the awesome interaction live, but i always feel that over text i miss something, and that something are emotions. So yeh, gaming girls over text it's not good, also you can lost a lot of what you earned already with misunderstands.
I remember when i started this whole PUA thing, i was able to create awesome moments with girls, made them laugh, have an awesome time, so i was able to become the best they can get, so i took their numbers, facebook or msn, then i came back to home trying to game them over media supports, so i ended losing rapport with them. One of them stooped to talk to me the day after i meet her (and we were laughing and having so much fun) i tried to approach her and she repulse me.
So yeh, when you are texting you have to become another person that you are not in real life, the conversation needs to be different. It sucks when you need to be 3 persons (your real you, you as a pua, you as a texter).
So in my opinion text should be only used to setup meet ups and after you kiss a girl you can say whatever you want she'll be ok with it, that's when i start to become who i really am.

I'm about to hear the ebook about "Introducing NLP" so you should do the same.
If you read "Mystery Method" + "The game" you get the whole idea how this game should be made, so now it's time to understand human behaviours, so you better take a look on that book now.

But mate, it's time to practice, if you read and don't do it you'll forget about what you studied previously then you need to get back to that study again and then you'll forget what you have studied forwardly then you'll get back to the study again... and so on, so make sure that what you study you put in practice, otherwise you'll be studding and forgetting things more often.
I recommend you to record your interactions (sound at least with your smart phone) if you are able to record video it would be even better!! Then come back home and break it down for you!
Also make notes about improvements about yourself.

Best of luck

Of course, there's nothing that can replace sarging in the real world. However, times have changed, and you can miss out a lot of busy career oriented HB9s and 10s who don't have time to go out.

Personally, the biggest benefit of online dating is that you test out TONS of openers, negs, disqualifiers. For example, I used this line on girls online "that's good, because I was just about to put you into friendzone" that got good reactions, so I'm thinking of using that in the real world as well.
