I can totally relate to your post, at first you're excited because you think picking up women brings you joy and then you do it and you feel like it was for nothing.

If you are afraid of covid, your immune system is automatically weaker because mind and body belongs together so you should not be afraid cause the chances that you get covid then are higher because of your psyche, your body is more sensitive and if you get it, you are more likely to have a bad course of covid. So the best thing to do is don't think about covid all the time and focus your mind on thinks you love instead and meditate and whatever is doing good for you so are less likely to get it. But I think the issues are deeper or come from somewhere else, otherwise you couldn't be so afraid of covid. Most people I know are not even afraid a tiny bit of covid eventhough they don't deny it exists.

@Peter Miklis True, I am just lucky to live in the place I do live to have these circumstances and I am thankful for that but if you live in a village (I grew up in a small town), you know everybody so dating advice doesn't really help you there so you don't need this information and if you live in an underdeveloped country, I don't think you need dating advice either. I think you have other issues there

@Shin First: I think you confuse @Regan with me, I made the post and @Regan asks this questions Second, how do you know this, are you Leo? Third, I also wonder if this video was inspired by this post, otherwise it is just a funny, huge coincidence, so @Leo Gura, were you inspired by this post to drop the video 1 day later on actualized.org?

Let me add this: now is pandemic time and people complain about it is difficult to date. For me not at all, I even met the woman I am dating right now in the pandemic time, I just saw her and approached her at daytime in my city - so this is just another excuse. I do understand you need to be careful these days to not catch the virus but for me I take the risk of maybe get the virus but still have a life instead of living in anxiety cause I am young, healthy and feel fit

I agree, I see people here asking so many questions about dating instead of talking to people in real life. I am an open person and talk to many strangers so I don't even ask these dating questions all the people here do, for example at the skate park (skateboarding is my nr. 1 hobby) and gym I get to know many people - men and women cause I am open and because of that I never really struggled with dating

A bit off topic but how long do you need to watch a YT video so that it counts as one view?

@Karmadhi Relax, I thought we are here to discuss and learn

@Leo Gura wtf, 1 day after I made this post I see a video on the actualized.org youtube channel with the exact same title: is gender a social construct?

@Consept That's an eye opening statement, that's why nowadays there is a huge agenda behind LGQTB and they are getting bigger and bigger and pushed by the media

@Peter Miklis yes, your answer makes absolutely sense to me. I just think about the feminists who want to make everything equal so that no gender exist anymore - so they are misleaded ->from the ego persprective

I don't know what all these "redpill" bullshit or whatever is, my girlfriend earns more than me and she is on my side and turns other guys down

The best video or information I ever watched about dating is this one: But now I look into this forum and some men ask for help in their dating life and I see Leo answering with some basic pick up information. Isn't this contradiction? For me the best game is no game

@The0Self English is a foreign language to me and I am not fully fluent;)

That doesn't mean you have to do pick-up so you contradict yourself and what the F does tangential even mean, I think you wanna act super smart with your words but you just talk but nobody knows what actions you take...

ok well so what about the 99.99% of all the men who never heard about pick up in their life? you say they are all on a lower stage then

what?

@wwhy I know

@JJfromSwitzerland I agree with you. Pickup strategies may be useful to get some fiele experience and shed some limiting beliefs. But like any other "system" it can't encompass the complexity of human interaction. I prefer to stay as far away as possible from manipulative strategies and instead learn how to be in my body, express myself freely, etc. yes, so somebody who has they same view as me;)

So you say, I should start pick-up now so that I can overcome it later to transcend?

Ok to be honest I do sometimes put what Leo says on a pedestial cause some videos helped me but maybe I should stop. With women I don't know if I put them on a pedestial, if so, I am not aware that I put them on a pedestial. I just enjoy the company of women I am attracted to.

Why do you think I put Leo on a pedestial only because I appreciate that video of Leo? Why do you think I put women on a pedestial? Where did I say because they go home with me sometimes, I am special? These are assumptions you make about me but you don't even know me, the only thing you know about me is what I posted here. I also don't make assumptions about you.

I am Leo cause it's all one - god. Joke lol, of course I don't know what his "authentic self" is. Ok maybe you have a point, I don't know. For me I just don't like listening to too much pick up advice so that's why I really resonated with the video "how to be a man pt 2" but then I got confused cause Leo still gives these kind of advices and I thought, they are not authentic but since I don't know him that good, I can't tell if they are authentic or not. For me this Pick-up says all women are like that and you have to act like this and then you get her to sleep with you but in my expierience this just doesn't work because every human being is different. Maybe I missunderstood pick up? What works for me is be open, talk to many people, approach many women, be self confident with yourself and your style and you get the women who want you for being you. But I am just a random dude hehe

Ok but the video I posted "how to be a real man pt 2" has nothing to do with we are god or spirituality as I understand. It basically says be your authentic self but then Leo gives the normal pick up advices as well which are not necessarly the same as being your authentic self. This was my question/confusion. My way which works for me in my dating life is I approach women and then I don't listen to pick up or dating advices anymore, I just text or call when I want and I can say it works for me. I am pretty happy with my dates and sex life. Of course not with every woman I can have dates or whatever cause it's a number's game but I try to be authentic, sometimes it works, sometimes not. I think @flowboy answered my question pretty well.

Ok, yes you have some points
