Role-Playing...

I think you should definately use some canned stuff more often. Since you seem like a natural, the more you use canned material the easier it will be to spot the paterns(yes, all social interactions have patterns) and it will actual help your spontaneous game in the long run.

 

Yeah. I've read a little on patterns.

I want to start with jokes and stuff. But yeah, I need a repertoire.

In the end we all use repertoires to engage strangers. And that's what we're talking about. Not rocket science.

 

Dude, if you need any canned routines I got you man. I have a million of em.

 

Wow, that is pretty lame actually.
I never used any routines and guess what: I still score!

 

I don't know how you guys can try to pick up girls as though it were an equation or sociology experiment. besides, any smart girl would see through it..

 

Limme see... ok I got it

You know what, you're like that chick in the movies. That sexy secretary that turns out to be a super bad ass martial artists. Laser glasses and poison spiked high heels and shit. We should run away together, and go to an island in the Caribbean, and build a mansion there with a huge manmade lagoon. Yeah, and then underneath it we'll build a big ass laser gun, and then we'll point it at any place you hate and we'll tell them we will laser their asses unless they give us ONE BILLION DOLLARS! We'll need an army though. So, I'll have to recruit an army of guys in uniforms, with big futuristic guns, but you know, I also want another army and YOU will be in charge of recruiting them. I want an army of, like, HOT girls in bikinis who are, like, total martial arts experts. And when things are good, they can just lounge around the pool in bikins being hot, but when there's bad shit going down they can take down all the invading special forces guys by leaping on them and snapping their necks with their thighs...YEAH!

 

Let me try...

Hey Jess. Let's get naked and play doctor.

 

what he said

hate to say it, but these techniques are clearly for losers

elevate yourself

 

Well, what I really need is a friend to do it with me. A wing.

But dude would have to be totally in synchronicity with me. He'd have to be someone I admire, otherwise it's just awkward.

 

All the guys who say they don't have routines are not observing their own behavior closely enough.


Bird, you go through routines and patterns in this right here forum...

 

It's actually not as cut and dry as it seems. There is actually an equation to all social interaction and if someone knows it, why not put it into practice? It's not how you think, line after pre-memorized line and the woman swoons. Not at all. Beginners use alot of canned routines to fill in the format, pro's wing it but, follow the format. It's actually way deeper and not a sleazy as you think it is.

 

You can break down everything into routines and patterns. You can also be spontaneous. Although that can be done routineously as well.

I know what you are saying and I hope you know what I mean.

 

I have a routine so far as I have a personality and a way of acting around people, but I don't have a premeditated strategy or rehearse lines. I prefer to be myself. why all this meticulous planning when I just want a girl I like to like me?

 

I know what you mean. If routines are over-used it can reveal a sad individual indeed.

You don't want to be a robot. Some routines fit my personality certains don't. Nor should routines replace spontaneity.

We're at our best when discipline and spontaneity converge, actually. You say that joke you've memorized, but spontaneously...when it befits the ocasion.

The metaphor would be jazz improvisation on a set chord progression.

 

100% true. Originally it was designed for the lovable losers, guys who didn't have a clue how to talk to women. The 40 year old virgins, the introverts, the socially inept. Why not give these men an out? Not all men are as natural as bird, myself or you. I personally use it because I am absolutely facinated by the psychology of it. Facinated by how everything seems to be true when broken down. Yes, it is a losers outlet but, why not give them a fighting chance?

 

ahahaha!
that would totally get you in my pants
ahaha
i love it

ok, are you the patient or am i?
doctor my throat hurts, do you have anything to help me with it

 

Actually, I'm concerned with social interaction in general. Not just girls.

But it's complicated...

When we say "hi" or "hello" we're actually using a pre-meditated strategy. We are recognizing the value in introduction in order to gain someone's sympathy.

Or when we say, "So, what do you do?"

It doesn't mean that I'm going to stand in front of the mirror and rehearse or that I'm going to micro-manage shit.

Like I said before, there is a way in which social routines are still experimental rather than contrived.

 

It means something is taken out of our long-term memory and being used at a certain situation. Yes, that is how the brain works and if you look at it like that, everything is a routine. We store information and use it to our benefit. We either get what we want or we learn.
And if we learn we know it is succesfull and so we try it next time again. Maybe.

But still, I am a bit of a romantic and I prefer to believe in the idea of spontanity, in passion, in romance, in love. In attraction, chemistry. Oh wait, chemistry is science as well.

 

Like a charm.

 

you know what also works on girls, giving them cocaine

then they will sit there and listen to your routine all night
