I think you're right that it's worth experimenting. I don't really do a lot of cold approach at the moment but I can see some of those working. When I warm myself up though after a while from not doing it I try to keep it as simple as possible to not overthink it and just get some reps and momentum in so I just use the hey, you're cute line as it works good enough. "Hey I saw you while I was walking and wanted to say hi. What are you up to?" is another classic one that's hard to fuck up and usually works.

Hasn't changed it still works as intended you just got got by anti AI propaganda

How is it poor quality? It still works better than most search engines if not all. I use duckduckgo too and it indexes a lot of stuff poorly. I would go as far as Google is one of the best companies at everything and is more on top of their shit than anyone. They have the best map software and the best cloud infrastructure and the best video hosting platform. Google is goated come on now Natasha take off the boomer hat.

I think communism has some good ideas but ultimately it's flawed and doesn't work. I think a lot of the principles will take form when we have AI UBI and the tech singularity but it still will not eliminate wealth inequality as there are always more finite experience and goods and some people are better at business/finance than others. There will be a day soon though where all food and housing will be taken care of and everyone will get a monthly allowance type of thing based off AI tokens. We are not far from world peace, even the iran conflict showed that war is not really profitable.

I think that's true french people like to debate and talk a lot more. The french language is meant to be a more poetic version than english so they value their literacy. The underlying structures of attraction work the same. The reason I said to start in french for a hook/opener even if your french sucks and you Chatgpd a few sentences is to benefit from the ingroup bias. Then you ask to switch in english and then they will probably oblige to be polite and then start qualifying to you because their english is not that good so now you are both someone they feel familiar with but that they wanna impress subconsciously within 60 seconds of interaction. Play chess not checkers

Hey you're cute, what are you up to I'm not very good at indirect game so I like to convey interest right away so this line is both casual but it screens quite quickly whether they're receptive or not.

Hopefully he feels like a competent man now that has the back of the young boy! I think uniting your childhood dreams with your adult competence is a great way towards self-actualization and reunification of the psyche.

Let's go my man! I didn't read the whole thread but keep it up that's good. You're doing web design free lancing still? That's a classic but tough business model now with AI website makers.

Ive moved to Montreal about a month and a half ago, things are going well but slower than I’d like. Launching a new site for the Calgary Creatives brand this weekend, pre launched with a waitlist and already got 9 signups so that’s really good. This is more of a medium to long term play that I don’t wanna monetize directly but I have a brand ambassador contract with AI brand that’s giving me $25 USD per signup so that’s a can stack up quickly and will be a useful tool for the creatives in my community to use for brand outreach and content ideation The journey continues Here's the trailer reel I made for it https://www.instagram.com/p/DaMEPyIRZ5O/

Yes I'm getting back into nofap now, I like what it does to my productivity. I realized that it was highly linked to anticipation so for example when I worked on business I got excited for the end result and wanted an instant reward and fapped instead of actually practicing delayed gratification and actually making tangible progress on my goals.

I think it's a good idea, I meet really cool people at big conferences. A lot of women give up on dating without exploring all the options available to them.

Definitely try it out! Depends what your goals are but entrepreneur based events are cool cuz people speak the same language or you can go for a photoshoot vibe to target specifically towards women and creatives. Music based events are also a really good option since it combine both vibes and music brings people closer. Feel free to DM me and I can give you more feedback on event curation. Usually I think it gets messy because the group isn't big enough and it turns into a sort of weird friend group incest situation but if there are inflows of people coming in regularly and people are ethical with their behaviours then dating in the social circle shouldn't really be an issue.

Well this is why some guys dislike high body count women because they say that they're comfortable with their sexuality so if there are problems in the relationship they'll go sleep with another guy for that easy dopamine. I think it's good to date with some experience since she'll already know random men can't fix her problems whereas a woman with less experience or even a virgin still idealizes men and if she finds some minor flaws with you it's more likely she'll try her luck elsewhere even if what she wants is unrealistic.

You said that you stopped believing in cold approach and are now focusing more on platonic relationships. Which is it?

Perhaps your current burnout with dating stems from the lack of integration into your overall life goals and social circle. It's all connected my friend. Cold approach has an early ceiling, I'm not surprised you're reaching some diminishing returns in it. The unhealthy pattern in my experience comes from when you invest too much time in your dating life at the expense of other areas in your life. I dated hot girls when I was not doing high level social circle events but the quality and how well they fit into my life has only gone up since I started doing it.
