I have been studying the dating scene for almost 6 years now, and practicing what is called "cold approach" pickup for a year now with really great results. People in the self-help community are generally not really aware of how this whole thing works, and with the media's bad view of pickup (Black magic and so on) it can be a really confusing question.

Feel free to ask any questions to get my personnal perspective. I will always explain the reasoning behind my anwser so that there is ground for debate.

This is meant to be a value offering post and I hope will contribue to the actualized.org community.
