I’ve been rejected for being solo, but as long as I’ve at least been with some dudes I’ve never been rejected for not having girls at the door. I’ve heard that’s a very American thing? Or maybe if you go to very high end clubs? I mean I wasn’t going for precise estimates, more your sense of what the ratio was when you were out. I’d say people are fairly intuitively aware of whether there are an abundance of the opposite sex around or not so it doesn’t seem unreasonable for people to have a general sense of it It’s not something I pay a lot of attention to directly but I did definitely notice that the ratio was wayyyy more male heavy than I expected in what’s rated as one of the best nightclubs in the world. That’s what sparked my curiosity more than anything

Idk man, it seems like a pretty reasonable thing for a girl to feel uncomfortable about. As someone said, it’s very similar to your GF having tons of male friends. That’d probably make you feel a bit uncomfortable And you’re also making some very big assumptions about the girl based solely on her feelings about this matter People are complicated. Even really developed people will have insecurities or blind spots. Perhaps there is a hint of insecurity left over in her that’s inspiring the dislike of OP watching porn, or perhaps it’s actually just a deal breaker for her. There are valid reasons to dislike porn as a whole too

If you wanna actually talk in a club go to the smoking area

I don’t really see why people are blaming you. It doesn’t sound like you’d have made a good couple. If a girl is still playing games like this by the 4th date and after sex it’s just a recipe for a toxic relationship After you have sex, girls that’d make for a good relationship will stop a lot of the coyness and game playing Yea you prob could have played it differently if you wanted to keep her longer, but the real question is do you actually think it would’ve been a good relationship or did you just find her hot?
-
It’s always hard to tell with only one side of the story but she sounds pretty toxic, I’d say move on
-
I wouldn't really say redpill is mainstream. It only appears so because it's quite prominent in your demographic, but your demographic is probably not that mainstream. The whole concept of pills is that bluepill is the normie, mainstream approach and redpill is the niche but more truthful approach
-
I don't disagree. But it's a slightly weird thing to spend at least several hours of your day making

The dude running this has a pretty unhealthy obsession. Like you can tell how much time and effort he puts in with all the weird storyboards he makes. Then you read the arguments he makes and they're all pretty weak and exaggerated. For example, see the pic below. The +20 means there are another 20 photoshopped images of a similar style in that post. Like come on man, what the fuck? Oh and he's also probably an incel: From what I can tell a lot of the group members are Christian too, which kinda makes sense. A lot of it reads like Christian moralizing. Anyway stuff like this interests me more than it should and I should probably just ignore it, but it's just so tragic lol.

It's a balancing act. Pushing yourself to do difficult things is not inauthentic. In fact, it's how you learn to be truly authentic. Part of the reason many guys suck with girls is that they're too scared to be authentic. "It's not really who I am" is often your mind's way of convincing you to avoid doing things you fear. The goal of pickup is really just to face your social fears. You can boil it down to: Go out to busy places with lots of girls Talk to lots of the girls there Push yourself to lead and express yourself authentically Either get rejected and move on, or build up some attraction Repeat You don't really need to look up lots of pickup theory or advice. You learn by experience. Although some of the general guidelines pickup theory gives you are pretty good at getting you to avoid making really silly mistakes with girls, like being needy, writing poems for girls you barely know, or hanging around orbiting girls who are clearly not interested in you etc. If you go out to clubs or bars, you'll see this isn't true pretty quickly. I often see fairly average looking guys going home with pretty attractive girls. They don't seem hyper masculine or manipulative. Most of the time they're just magnetically authentic, fun to be around and not creepy.

Posting a stream of half naked pics, a pic with a gun, and some random high selfies at home over the course of a couple hours (without any context) looks more like insanity than sanity Especially given Leo's generally pretty grounded personality. Add to this the fact that Leo takes a fuck ton of psychedelics, and that people in the spirituality/self-help community have a tendency to go off the rails or even commit suicide, and it doesn't paint a great picture If it was one of your friends who did not normally behave like this then you would definitely be very concerned. I'm not even trying to suggest people should have been concerned for him as much as I'm suggesting people were justified to feel weirded out by it Anyway, it's clearly not insanity. I think it was more a case of being out of touch with how instagram is typically used more than anything
-
If you are going to use a certain social media platform, you are kind of expected to conform to its social matrix. For example is it authenticity if you walk around naked in the street? I mean, technically yes, but it is not in the least bit grounded or sane and people would be correct to question your sanity for doing that A lot of what Leo posted on Instagram was similar in that it did not conform to how people normally use the site, which is probably why it came across so bizarre and concerning to a lot of people Authenticity is good, but you still gotta follow the limits of whatever medium you are using or you appear really ungrounded and out of touch I assume it got taken down, don't know by who or why
-
It's more that sporadic changes in behaviour without context can be concerning. Especially in a field known for people going insane, losing all groundedness, and committing suicide
-
If I'm honest this reads like someone who's addicted to a substance trying to justify their addiction. However I don't know that much about Kratom so I can't really talk about it much. I've just heard some not so great stories is all
-
It's been removed. Probably for the best, lol.
-
Fundamentally you've got to do a lot of things that scare you. Or things that are difficult. Pushing yourself is how you develop a strong personality. In normie terms, any time anyone has ever told you that something would 'build character' what they mean is it will make your personality stronger
-
What? Read this again, it just sounds silly. Of course talking sexually with a girl will make her think you want to fuck her Of course, but usually you’ve still gotta flirt skilfully to make that happen rather than just ramming explicit sex topics into a conversation. You’ve had this explained at least 5 different ways to you in this thread already but you keep generating excuses It’s not a logical issue. It’s an emotional one. You can’t solve this with logic and thinking, really. It is the way it is, you just have to accept it and work with it If you wanna talk about sexual stuff with girls early on you have to do it playfully in order to not create way too much tension and awkwardness

What dude? It feels like you're being overly pedantic here, you know what I meant Forum users likely make up a significant portion of his customers who pay for his course and book list, so from a business perspective it makes sense to engage with people on the forum a lot To satisfy your pedantry maybe I should have worded it as "It's literally part of his job" or "It's fundamental to his business"
-
I'm pretty sure Kratom is super addictive. I haven't heard great things about it
-
I mean it's literally his job. Forum users are most likely to buy his products so it makes sense for him to engage with them pretty heavily.

I don't really give that much credibility to MBTI, but the ENFP personality type seems to pretty accurately describe my ideal personality in a girl. Bubbly, confident, slightly clumsy and messy but in a cute way, creative, open minded. In terms of appearance I like really short girls with a nice figure. I care more about body than facial aesthetics. Not too fussed about hair colour. Ginger girls definitely have a unique appeal though. I also really like girls who have eyes with a strong positive canthal tilt. Eyes that look really mysterious and intriguing.

For some people. I get that. People have different needs. I want a girl who is attracted to me and knows it, and in my experience that can definitely happen through a single date. A lot of girls have this idea that they need to make guys wait to like, test their worthiness, or something. I'm curious, where does this idea come from? Why do you think it's necessary? IMO it's silly but it seems very common Sounds more like the dude was just inexperienced more than it being your fault, but either way it's an anomaly. Don't be afraid of making the first move every now and then. The vast majority of guys will respond well to it

Trust me, most of us do appreciate it when girls are sexual with us first. Though girls seem to be naturally good at bringing up sex in a way that's smooth and sexy when they do want to bring it up, unlike many of us guys who often try to ram it into the conversation I would probably be weirded out if a girl was asking me lots of sex questions in a very sterile manner on a first date, but almost no girl would ever do that And guys don't really give a fuck about being sexually objectified, it isn't even something that crosses our mind. Hell, we probably enjoy it most of the time if it happens Not if you do it right, man or woman. If you do it right it can be hot as fuck Each to their own, but honestly I can't ever imagine waiting a week before making a move I'd rather know after one date whether a girl is sexually attracted to me or not. If she hasn't decided by then, I'm moving on Why in the fuck do you care what kind of porn she watches, or what her favourite sex position is? The answer is because you want to sleep with her and she knows this immediately, because otherwise you wouldn't give a fuck about any of these questions. So it comes across as desperate. In her mind she's thinking "oh here's another random dude who just wants to fuck me, boring, eww, please get away from me" It's about the framing. You could definitely talk about these things really quickly with a girl, but you gotta do it in a way that's playful, flirty, entertaining and shows off some personality
-
I don’t think anyone disagrees. However you can’t change much about your looks, so you may as well focus on the most cost effective way to make yourself more attractive to women which is lots of exposure and developing an attractive personality Weirdly it actually serves you better to believe that women don’t give a fuck about looks even if that isn’t true. Delusional levels of self confidence help you a lot with girls

@Phil777 I agree with you, anyone can do more or less whatever they want online. However given that this particular space of content creators and forum users has an above average tendency to randomly go off the rails, and in some cases commit suicide, spontaneous changes in behaviour can be worrying It’s better to err on the side of caution and check in with people who suddenly change their behaviour in general, but in particular in this space on the internet I certainly don’t think it was unwarranted to at least be slightly confused or concerned that something had happened -
Pretty sure he said he has used a DMT vape when he's out before.
