Thanks everybody for your comments. To clear up some misconceptions, The snakes I have in mind are absolutely harmless. "exotic" is a highly relative term that really means nothing when you think about it. Pet reptiles, including snakes, are relatively common and a lot is known about their care. Yes, a captive-bred snake will never experience the infinite space his ancestors would have had in nature. Though having lost this freedom he will gain the freedom from hunger, thirst, disease and parasites. And of course, his enclosure must be of sufficient size. Here play in factors such as obviously the size of the animal but also his lifestyle (is it very active or calm) and is it a fast or a slow mover. I have done crazy amounts of research on this topic and just last week I returned from the jungles of Suriname where I learned even more. The only reason I kept off taking one is due to the strong reaction people have to them.

Pfff.... That's why girls are lame. Just kidding, many guys have strong reactions to snakes as well. Girls on this forum please let me know: will you date a guy who owns a pet snake?

Vinegar is highly acidic, it literally dissolves surfaces. It goes without saying that you should never use white/pure vinegar for plugging. Apple cider is a little better but still extremely acidic, it's not "green apple acidic" but on a whole different level. If you want to dissolve your 5meo use 1 or 2 drops of apple cider and the rest water. That should do the job and even if the 5meo powder if it's not completely dissolved, the dose is just as potent. I am saying this because I noticed that after trips I have a peculiar pain when pooping. I did some research on how vinegar can be damaging to the body and came to the conclusion that organ and body tissue has a hard time handling those levels of acidity. I think that it can get particularly dangerous when you plug regularly using nothing but vinegar.

@Leo Gura you keep telling how girls are attracted to assholes because they are emotionally stimulating. That's true to a degree. But at the same time, it is not really that hard to be emotionally stimulating when you are a "strong" man and you click with a girl. If you developed yourself to the point of being pretty decent, meaning you have embodied the basic principles of pick-up and dating, you actually can be very chill, decent and kind to the girl. and you still be emotionally very stimulating. Exactly! I get crazy pick-up results after a 5meo trip

Ukraine is slowly but steadily taking back land. I see this trend continuing. Russia's strategy is to slow this advance by digging into trenches and leveraging their bigger numbers as they can always find enough men to (re)fill up those trenches. Russia is making use of some old but theoretically solid military strategies, combining the defensive advantage of ww1 style trench warfare with brutish capitalizing on its larger numbers against a smaller but way stronger force. The Union army turned around the civil war when they started capitalizing on their larger numbers by accepting they will take the larger losses and incorporate "cannon-fodder" like tactics during battle. The only difference is that back then basically everybody was cannon fodder and generals like Ulysess S Grant were morally tormented and actually cried for their man. I don't think Russian generals and officers share this mentality. But the question for Russia remains: will this strategy hold in 21 century-modern warfare? Also, this winter will be harder on the demoralized Russians rather than the well-equipped Ukrainians. Being a Russian soldier on the Ukrainian front is the last place on earth any human in this world would want to be.

I just felt like sharing this weird thing I noticed in day game where sometimes I will approach a girl that is incredibly hot and from the first second she is super excited and genuinely attracted to me. She makes everything very easy for me and she'll be the one to gladly asking for my number with the specific purpose to hang out later. It's almost like she is meeting Brad Pitt. But when I have her number she either blocks me right away or flakes after 1 or 2 texts. So as fast as she was hooked she also flakes. I think it's because afterwards she realizes "wait a minute, who the fuck was that guy?" and even feels embarrassed for acting so excited and making it so easy. It's important to note that I did not have the opportunity for instant dates to build some familiarity in those cases. But still, they were really hot and we clicked exceptionally well, like the potential for a beautiful synergy was very big and yet they flake so fast. Like, if you're experienced in this field. Do you also experience this phenomenon when it's a curse when girls are overly enthusiastic, totally compliant and lose their feminine coyness?

I will do none of this manipulative PUA bullshit(; The thing you must appreciate about learning pick-up is how it is a subtle art form revolving around embodiment and honest signals. The better you are the fewer out-of-integrity manipulations you have to do, all of those stem from insecurity anyways. Respect the art form, it's like being a whisperer of venomous snakes. Also, appreciate that pick-up is a very spiritual process of personal transformation that when done right should lead to integrity and better character. The subjective judgment of girls is spiritual feedback that sculpts you and makes you better. When you get bit by a venomous snake you learn quickly to adjust yourself.

Had a good date, she was very late which annoyed me. But basically she was just as enthusiastic as when I approached her. She was really into me, I didnt even had shit test from her. She was constantly very enthusiastic and sweet to me. We had some cool romantic moments

The funny thing is I approached that girl when she was waiting on her date. But she told me that she wasn't really feeling attracted to him and wanted to politely and respectfully communicate that to him. I assume it's true but maybe it was a spiel for me. Either way, I feel flattered(: I am seeing her on Friday if she doesn't flake. Another girl I am seeing tomorrow so that put's the pressure a little bit off.

Just ask whether she has time and lead her to a coffeeshop. When starting out you must overwin some of that initial awkwardness within yourself. But insta-dates are powerful as fuck in the sense that they build a little but nonetheless crucial familiarity and connection. With just a number, a very important component of attraction is missing making your chances so much slimmer. Another huge plus of insta-dates is that when texting-after you can basically go straight to planning the next date without that "witty small talk" beforehand. And yeah having sex on an insta-date is something I will never do, that's not my style.

Quick update: One of the girls in question just texted me after days of silence "when do you want to meet?". Man... girls are weird(:

Yes, this is exactly what happened. Yes, these are the kind of girls I seem to attract. I am now dating a very intelligent and "wholesome" Iranian girl. She is not a solid 10 like that eastern European girl I lost. She was truly exceptional, in fact, she was such a high achiever and all-around perfect it made her unattractive Though I learned my lesson and will take it slowly and respectfully with the new girl. Also because she has a more traditional background (she shit-tests way more than a western girl) even though she is very modern and "westernized".

I dated and lost a girl who worked full-time at a prestigious financial institution besides her full-time university study. She was an exceptionally pretty and feminine eastern European girl. She was fully aware of her high value. (especially in my country where girls are generally big and more masculine she stood out alright). I had two dates with her months apart because she is so busy. On the second date, I escalated way too quickly and freaked her out. She actually told me about how she was very disappointed in herself for being so wrong about me. (I did not take this personally ofc and I gave her the space to vent her frustration in an honest way.) She also said she was feeling very sensual (before it went wrong), which is good I guess(: looking back and analyzing what went wrong, I think her exceptional feminine energy enhanced my masculine energy such that I basically acted way too rashly. I learned that I have no problem being sexual and making girls feel hypersensitive. Now I have to be more like a gentleman. No PUA douchebag bullshit like "negative peaks". If a girl is in a hypersensitive state these will come effortlessly. I also set a (loose) rule for myself not to escalate at the beginning of the date (first 30 to 45 min). And always begin with just holding hands. In many ways, a dinner date is good because there is no way to physically escalate and it's just about building comfort to make it easier later on to escalate.

@Rasheed You should be strategic about it. Adapting to your particular location, spending 4 hours non-stop in the same small mall is a bad idea as it can make you feel like the local madman. Walking long routes for 4 hours may be better for your mental health but very tiresome and plain boring unless you have a real passion for walking, (I used to have that). You must think about how many hours are sustainable for you. To be honest 4 hours is way too much unless you have a day off on the weekend. I always set my target at 5 approaches, but most of the time I end up doing more because I get in state, and then it's almost easier to approach than not to. When you're really in state and enjoying yourself then you can do 4 hours. But let's face it, it's not that enjoyable most of the time. Most of the time 5-7 approaches are good enough. Just an hour or two. The trick is to do this consistently. But then again not too consistent. It's not about maximization but all about what's least taxing, most practical, and durable for you.

Proof?

Her death is also very historically symbolic and meaningful because a lot of countries are now considering leaving the commonwealth and removing the British monarch as their head of state. This combined with Brexit and the ever more likely possibility of an independent Scotland and a reunified Ireland will mean a new era for Britain/England with a much weaker status and global influence. Britain was the world's prime superpower from roughly 1700 to 1900. It's still a respectable world power to this day but greatness comes and goes. As someone who grew up with some English culture (entertainment/language/history etc.) I am a little biased towards England, so for me, her death is kind of melancholy.

@Leo Gura Tbh I kinda admire good ole British formality

Yes, a fake tan is very unattractive. I also get turned off by women who smoke. A lot of guys don't mind and that's fine, but I have my personal preferences.

Exactly, friends only hold you back in Day game. In the night game, it's very comforting to fall back on a group of friends and helps you with state building and projecting status.

That's terrible advice: 1. At night everybody looks like a ghost to a degree, that's why they have the dim lights with all those effects in the club. And outside they have this crazy light effect called the night sky. 2. It's not about looks! and especially a tan will play an insignificant role for you whether you get laid. (When I see a girl with a fake tan, I'll consider her low-class and fake. It's really unattractive to me). 3. waste of money and needless health hazards.

@Leo Gura Would you say that day game or night is harder on your own? I only daygame on my own and I cannot imagine doing it any other way. I used to do it with buddies but it quickly just becomes a cringy clown show where we subconsciously try to prove ourselves to each other. It's also nice not having to share the hot girls. Night game on the other hand I still find too intimidating to do on my own. I stayed in the club multiple times when friends left but then I was already in state and it was in a specific club where people are more mature and open. I once entered a club alone (before I found my buddies) and stayed there, did some dancing and approaching but felt very weird and intimidated. Going alone to nightclubs is definitely something I want to master and I know It's just a matter of practice. But to be honest day game is lately really bearing its fruit for me so I currently don't feel motivated to master that aspect of pick-up considering the colossal amount of energy night game takes.

hmm... not sure what to say. I used to be kinda toxic, easily butthurt and annoyed. Though this anger vanished completely when I started to live on my own (no more people encroaching on my space). That's also when I started doing psychedelics. Have you tried psychedelics? I believe that's the main thing that will get to the core of the issue. Other than that, find ways to release the anger in healthy ways, like: Gym/exercise fighting sport Masturbation/sex Have cathartic moments when you scream loudly in your head (you don't have to actually make noise) Also, get in touch with your feminine side. For example, you can tend a garden or get a pet, something you will love and care for.

@Leo Gura Yeah location is important, I usually game in and around the largest and busiest rail and bus station in the country. Especially during rush hour, I can't really complain about abundance issues. But it is a relatively small area so when I feel weird for walking there too much I take a stroll in the relatively calm and charming city center and parks and head back into "the Zone" when I feel ready. Also beforehand I like to walk off my anxiety in that manner.

Don't torture your self. You already do that enough with your negative thinking. Instead of no fap do no cumming before a night out. Means you masturbate but just don't cum.

@Leo Gura This question might be a little bit off-topic, but I heard that you really enjoy the days you have for yourself more than going to clubs. Generally, clubs and going out at night are a huge drain on energy and productivity and the girls there are generally of lesser quality. So my question is why not just day game? It's way less energy intensive and once you've passed the brutal learning curve and you're actually good at it, it's really a shockingly reliable way of getting dates, and all it takes is an hour or two of strolling through the busy part of town a couple of times a week.
