Does hitting on girl's (target) friend work?

[UpperMaster]

Does this work? How should you do this?

[Leo Gura]

Work for what? Getting the friend?

If you are trying to get the girl, not her friend, then don't hit on her friends. Just be friendly and nice to them.

The best approach for handling friends is to give them a flattering complement, a bit of small talk, then focus back on your girl. Do not get too distracted on her friends. Focus on your goal, which is to run off with the girl you like.

Thanks for reply.

 

@Leo Gura an experienced friend of mine told me that it’s good to make her a bit jealous. Keep her on her toes. 

Fair enough tho. I won’t do that  then. 

ps

im very new to pick up. Idk.

She might actually feel disgusted that she is attracted to someone who was previously hitting on her friend. 

She most probably doesn't want to break the GIRL CODE.

@Buck Edwards nah but I think what he meant is do it in a way where there’s plausible deniability.

Might work on a girl who possibly never had a boyfriend.

Pickup is hard enough as it is without such tactics. Keep it simple and focus on the essentials.

Hitting on her friends actually works sometimes because it makes the others jealous. Pickup is all about activating her primal emotions so sometimes you have to play and use different tactics with different sets. No single approach should look the same.

You first need to create a vibe/action(s) where your target isn't a hundred percent sure whether you like her or just being friendly. I'm not going to tell you how to do this specifically, but there are many ways of establishing such vibe -- I like to call it "uncertainty sexual tension" btw-- then go hit on the girl's friend, and then, you can get really creative from there.

Warning: You might activate her dormant craziness... knives getting thrown at you and shit. If you can handle the resulting craziness, omfg, bro its like a fucken movie. Tarantino, Scorsese, etc.. got nothing on the movie that you'll create if you can play off of her craziness.

Referring to women as a target just makes you sound like a serial killer. And the second quote just sounds extremely manipulative. Pickup is a good thing, but don't let it brainwash you into totally dehumanising women. Yes, if you turn into a sociopath who superficially manipulates women you might get more sex, but this comes at a massive cost to your integrity and you'll probably struggle to maintain any kind of healthy long term relationship with a mindset like that.

Manipulation like this is kind of an unhealthy feminine trait. Focus on developing the basic healthy masculine traits like confidence, leadership, strength, wit etc. and you'll get more sex without sacrificing integrity.

@something_else Good luck with being straightforward with women

I get the hustle but this whole pick-up thing comes off as so manipulative and gamey sometimes. The crazy part is that girls don't even recognize all the tactics on display. All the work that goes into it all. They are so in their own little world.

It's always worked for me. Being as direct and straightforward as you can get away with is your role as the man in the flirting game.

When I used to go out and party a lot, I never thought of what I was doing as 'pickup' and I think that worked to my advantage.

I wasn't thinking 'how do I manipulate this girl into sleeping with me' I was thinking more along the lines of 'how do I have fun and how can I make this girl's night more fun' which always seemed to work a lot better than my friends who were trying gamey shit like this.

@UpperMaster It just as often back-fires. 

• The woman you're interested will assume you're interested in her friend and write you off 
• The friend might like you and block the switch to the friend 
• It can seem like you were struggling with the friend so you switched to the woman you're interested in, which looks desperat 

This is especially the case if the friend is less conventionally attractive than the girl you're interested in.

Do not try to make her jealous by talking to her friends. Just talk to her friends normally and if she likes you she will probably get a bit jealous. If you try to flirt with her friends YOU ARE DONE.

This sounds a bit toxic. My guess was that it was to try to make her jealous , which you in a reply said it was. The kind of high quality girl you would want this probably wouldn’t work on, she would be too mature to fall for this trick. The kind of girl this would work on seems the kind that is into a guy who doesn’t give her interest, and you’d have to maintain this behavior of playing games with her to keep her interest up. If you are phony enough maybe you could pull it off, but other than that no.

You have the right to want to be jealous, just like you have the right to want to be girly in general.

I read the topic, no it wouldn't work it's too much.
