[Was turned to this blog by Meraki's post here; still in the process of reading the article. I recommend it.]


The thread I'm pointing to brought up important things that I hand't clearly made distinct in my mind and left "un-handled".

It's main focus is "the numbers game", but it points to a variety of reasons that hold back people; interesting read if nothing else is taken from it.

If you choose to read it, also read the comments at the bottom. That author does a good job dealing with the projection of those who commented.

Why Men Fear The Numbers Game

Holy shit

This article is so good, I can't even describe it dude. The "Being" versus "Feeling" something is nothing new around here, but the way that dude spoke about it spoke to me. :shock:

Thanks for sharing

It is a very good article, definitely true for many of the reasons I avoid approaching, cold or otherwise. When I first read it I thought maybe he was talking about pua style 10 cold approaches a night and wanted to dismiss the article. More so the article is about fear and self handicapping. It made me realize more clearly the big difference between cold approaching from a place of need and because of a gut feeling. Internal evidence is still evidence.

I haven't read the article yet but someone made a comment:

I think Roosh made the analogy to poker, where even the best players lose more than they win, and I’ve read stories of even experienced PUAs going home crying after a bad night. I know from my own that you start to feel like your treatment by women is outright abuse.
just approaching random women is stupid as we said here before:

look for the women who are checking you out
