Noobs...

[Guest]

Trib,

If you read any significant number of my posts, you'll know and understand that I am a champion of YOU. I believe that we all have the answers to the questions for which we're trying to solve. Everything in life is a personal journey. Pickup is no different.

Scolding isn't the right word and, to be honest, I expected a little more from you on this one. Guys that don't have strong self-esteem and a strong frame will read this and *think* that it is a lecture, will *think* that I'm scolding people. In reality, it's not even close. It's more of a "I KNOW you're better than this, so why don't you act your worth" type of speech (btw, I'm not trying to imply that you have a weak frame or low self-esteem, not that you really care about that disclaimer anyway ;).

Instead, what I'm saying is that I see a lot of whoa is me, I've been hurt before, I have AA, I don't know what to do, I just need to see someone in action, how do I be me, etc, etc, etc bullshit on this site from these guys that are waiting for the 'old timers' to grab them by the hand and teach them the secrets we've learned.

Well, guess what? It doesn't work that way. I can't teach you, or show you how to be the best you possible. All I can do is tell you that in order to find that 'you' YOU have to do the work. I can give guidance, advice, and help along the way...but YOU have all the answers. This means that YOU have to do ALL the work.

For all the noobs out there, you have a wealth of information at your finger tips. Not only that, but you have a very willing and open group of guys from which to draw upon and learn from our experience. But, that only gets you so far. Just because I read 'Roots' does that mean I can tell you what it's like to be a slave? No. YOU have to experience this for yourself, YOU have to do the work, and when YOU do YOU'LL thrive in the light of success.

I will be quick to say I am one of the newer guys here but I am constantly reading up going out and working on my approaches I have got alot of good ideas of here but just because someone doesn't post alot doesn't mean they are not learningfrom you guys been doing this awhile I cant what for the next meet because i will try my hardest to be there I just fear because im short on money right now it may hurt me because i have recently started my own company after reading the book poor dad rich dad after getting advice from another pua's I will let you guys now whats up on that in the next day or two so if any guys looking for LCD plasma ipods laptops cell phones cameras I will have a pua special and im already 30-40 cheaper than retail

You're talking to the guys and scolding them for not posting, not showing up, not going to meetings, not doing pickup and not committing themselves to this practice as much as you have.

Its great that you've chosen to be a pickup artist. Its good that you take control of your own life.

But that's really where it ends.

We have no control over what other people do, say, or feel. This includes women.

I agree with your post about how the guys are whiny and weird. Half the posts on there are "I have approach anxiety" or "Boo Hoo some random girl didn't like me."
And you're absolutely right, its pointless.

But that's their problem.

The one thing I want to convey (if I can) is to put your focus on what matters.

What do you want?
What is your goal?

Is it to rule over a bunch of newbies in a bar? Or is it a successful guy with a great girlfriend or many great girlfriends? See, what we focus on determines where we are in life.

Also I've said it before and I will say it again and again, [b]pickup is a personal journey[/b].

The 80/20 rule tells us that 80% of the problems come from within us. The outer is merely 20%. The solutions to these problems are not "those guys" or "those girls".

I totally agree 100%+ with Tribulus on this one.


Original post says...

"It seems to me there are a couple of things going on:

1) Lots of pussies that don't want to actually learn this stuff
2) Lots of insecure guys that don't want to interact with more experienced guys for fear of being shown up
3) Lurkers that steal our hard earned thoughts and ideas
4) Guys that are dabbling with the idea of the Community but don't ever commit
5) Younger guys that can't get in the 21+ venues (note I edited this after thinking about it a little longer)
6) Or straight up assholes that try to come on here and make a mockery of our pursuit of pussy"


May I say that few people rather do things on their own/ with their social circle instead of meeting up with some random PUA guys they meet over internet?
You must consider the fact that some people don't live near Dallas metro. I feel that you really don't care about other people including newbies as well. Yet, you are trying to sound like you really care about the new guys on here.

Anyhow IF this post is the result of the Bush thread under off topic, You really are a coward. In this case, you had an ulterior motive to insult me while you sound like you are blaming newbies who don't show up in general. Just so everyone knows, I have not been to any Friday meet ups or events this lair hosts. I think I've pissed you off on that subject. You need to chill out dawg, not everyone's going to have similar view as yours. You can't force your beliefs onto somebody else. The world without opposition and difference is merely agreeing with everyone else. That kind of world is too boring for me, bud. Isn't it time for you to grow up? :)

Vin,

You made this into a WHOLE lot more than it truly is.

Off Topic, is Off Topic.

This post was VALID, it was necessary, and it was 2nd'd by others with the same thought process.

You spend your time turning things into personal vendettas, that's fine. Enjoy your time in the world of the paranoid.

Personally, I could give two shits about you...and, hopefully some day, I'll meet you face to face so I can say that to you in person.

You, are NOTHING to me.

Enjoy, BUD.

Now that school has started, I can't go out as much. I want to keep going out, but it seems like some people can't because they are in a relationship or don't want to or too far. I would not rather do this pua stuff with my friends bc they will bring negativity. i want to go out with positive folks.

Also, I have been day gaming at least 3-4 days a week at the mall instead of night with Matrix and El Fenix, and occasionally JJDog. I just like day game more because it seems easier and I can be more direct. I don't have to remember different lines or stories for day game since girls' bitch shield isn't up during the day. I want to take the girls I meet at the mall and use them as social proof at bars/clubs, but I have to number close first.

Last night, I went to Hotel Zaza's lounge with Matrix and El Fenix, and I had a blast. I felt like a baby there (which i was happy about) because I was the youngest and many cougars were there. I was dancing on the floor with some older women not caring what people thought.

Woah I pissed off somebody reallllll goood, didn't I?
Note how I said "IF this post is the result..." People could have their doubts. At least, I came out straight up and addressed you for the "possible issue."
I really don't care what I am to you, bud. I'm actually enjoying your responses.

As good ole mob boss frank says, Loudest one is the weakest one. You sure are pretty loud on this forum.

Haha sweetpure, you gotta love them cougars. I like cougars sometimes.

Why can't we all just get along?
:[
lol
seriously there is so much negativity on this thread
Bull Run was just stating his opinion, and he could have chose some nicer words in there but maybe nice words just don't fit his character
don't bash him because of what he thinks
I understand you are sticking up for the little guy but they might not even read this post
and if they do they don't know Bull Run
so why should it matter to them?

on the other hand tho
Bull Run saying he is nothing to you
that was a little childish
you may be good at PU
and you may even be better than him at it
but that does not make you better than him at life
we are all human
he was just stating his opinion on your subject
there is a reason why these threads are public, so we can have public opinion on our ideas and experiences
if you do not want comments on your thoughts
then do not post a thread

keep in mind
I mean only to pacify by this post

So, just to sum things up.

I think Vin is a douchebag. He thinks I'm a douchebag.

Now that that's settled, let's get back to the business of pickup.
