Here's a bit of a report from my sarge last night. I've read pua bull shit that says you shouldn't compliment a girl. I'm gonna say right now that is WRONG!! We were at a really upperclass club last night this girl had a really wild hairdo and her hair was pink. Normally I'm not a fan of that, but she pulled it off. Anyway as I'm walking by I stop and say hey I just have to say I like your hairdo I think it looks good on you not many ppl could pull that off, but you do it pretty well. She was like Wow thanks and just lit right up we had a really good convo for about 10min she had friends around not one of them interfered I got her # and texted her a couple hours later saying hey its that ridiculously handsome guy that complimented you on your hair. She replies Well mister there's a lot of guys that fit that description you're gonna have to be a little more specific . We talked a little more and we'll see what comes of it.

As always any feedback is appreciated thanks!!

I'm almost certain that PUA Bullshit you read specifically stated to not throw out generic compliments like "Wow you're the most beautiful girl I've ever seen" or "wow you look like a model". You on the other hand did it right. You didn't compliment her directly, putting her on a pedestal from moment 1. You complemented her style, which is perfectly fine.

Also I like the text you sent her .

I've read about generic compliments and how they don't work and what not I don't think that's bull shit. What I think is bs is the so called gurus that are against complimenting altogether and promote negging. Personally I used to neg the odd time, but I never felt good about it teasing on the other hand is fun both ppl involved. It makes me feel good when I give a girl a genuine compliment and I see her smile and light up. It makes her feel good it makes me feel good and I personally think its far more effective then any sort of backhanded "compliment. Just leads to a more enjoyable experience for both ppl. At the end of the day I want the girl to feel better then she was before she met me and glad that she met me. Doesn't always work out that way, but I try lol.

So which one of these girls did you fuck with your compliments?

And as previously stated they don't tell you not to compliment, they simply say don't be so forward and generic about it. None of that "Hey gurl, you so fine" type bullshit. Complimenting on clothing, hair or earrings is actually advised when approaching. It's out there, not many other people will make such observations and you stand out.

Also, the only ones to promote negging are those who are specifically after 9s and 10s. The rational behind it is that they get checked out and hit on every day and think highly of themselves, so much so they're not willing to give 90% of the guys out there a chance. The point of negging is to be different and lower her value which also peeks her interest in you because you're not like all the other dipshits saying how hot she is and how they would bend her over and fuck her two ways from Sunday. Mystery was one such MPUA and he was completely right.

Yep, neggs are good for self-entitled women. All these 'tools' are useful, but you're better of hitting a nail with a hammer instead of a screwdriver. Different situations require different approaches.

Last night none maybe tonight will be a different story. I'm sure negs have their place and ppl make them work, but its not my style I don't like it it doesn't make me feel good. I'm not desperate to get laid. So if I don't get laid as a result of not negging so be it. However if a girl I'm quick witted so if a girl is giving me shit testing me I'm good at turning it around on her and making her 2nd guess herself and what she's saying.

Yes, genuine compliments are the best. Make sure that they're not something someone feels insecure about though. For instance, if you saw me in sweats and said, "your hair is so pretty," I'd take that as an insult.

The word "pretty," though, is magic if you know how to use it subtly. Especially with an adjective, like "so" or "very." It doesn't even have to be about her: it could be her hair, what she's wearing, or even a (pretty) picture on the wall. I have no idea why it works, but it does.

Are you one of those guys that are so desperate to prove PUA's wrong lol?

What PUA's say is that you shouldn't depend purely on compliments to woo a girl because most of the time IT DOES NOT WORK. Ofc you'll have the exceptions. I read a post on some website of some guy blabbering how "PUA's are IDIOTS" and how he knows a guy who got married by just saying "You're so pretty, you're so pretty" to his wife. Ofc the exceptions exist, but when you're trying to teach the common man how to meet woman, you provide them with tactics that are successful for the most part.

What you did was NOT an exception either, what you did was in fact a very basic but good technique of starting a convo based on what she's wearing or an observation.

I'm not saying pua is wrong I'm saying a lot of it is stupid. There's a lot of really helpful info that has helped me, but imo this sounds pathetic you see a hot girl you go say something to her to lower her value so you stand apart from the other guys and knock her off her high horse.

Imo maybe the guy in question should be on a higher horse himself. I'd personally rather give a compliment and make her feel better about herself and say something to increase her value. Because A) I know how to deliver a proper compliment. B) I'm confident enough in my abilities to pull hot girls even stuck up girls without having to resort to lowering their value. Read Eddie Fews article the power in a proper compliment and PUA vs Player then you'll understand my way of thinking. If you like negs I'm not gonna tell you you're wrong to each their own I'm gonna tell you however its not my style and I'm confident in my abilities to get hot women without using value decreasing techniques.
