			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It bothers me when it feels like I&#8217;ve missed out on an opportunity. A girl gave me this look, I did nothing, and then I start feeling guilty. Should I feel down for not approaching every cute girl that I see?</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s take a look at a couple of hypothetical examples to help us answer this question&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>1.</strong> Say some girl is walking in the opposite direction of you <a href="http://www.pickupartistmindset.com/approaching/how-to-pick-up-girls-on-the-street/">on the sidewalk</a> and locks eye contact, and maybe even smiles. Should you approach her?</p>
<p><strong>2.</strong> How about if you&#8217;re sitting next to a girl <a href="http://www.pickupartistmindset.com/approaching/brutal-subway-rejection/">on the subway</a> and she looks around at other passengers instead of staying focused on her book. How about if she glances at the newspaper you are reading. Should you approach?</p>
<p><img src="http://www.pickupartistmindset.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/missed-opportunity-262x300.jpg" alt="Missed Opportunity" width="262" height="300" class="floatright" /><strong>3.</strong> How about if the girl next to you at the coffee shop sighs deeply several times and stares off in space. Should you approach?</p>
<p>There is no clear line about when you should approach and when you shouldn&#8217;t, but there are opportunities which you should get mad at yourself for not taking action. For example, if a girl looks at you for more than one second, you should approach her no matter where you are, because it&#8217;s never an accident that someone makes eye contact with another person. </p>
<p>You should also approach girls who are looking around or seem bored, even if they don&#8217;t look at you. They want to be distracted with a conversation instead of doing what they&#8217;re supposed to be doing.</p>
<p>Therefore I say YES to the three cases above. You should approach. But how about the girls who don&#8217;t look at you and seem completely focused in their work? </p>
<p>Well, I know what happens when I approach these girls, but do you? While these are not high-success approaches, I think you owe it to yourself to try them out a few times and see what you can learn. The experience I got from approaching so many girls has helped me be able to tell when a girl is open to being talked to or not.</p>
<p>But keep in mind that her approachability is only one factor in deciding if you should approach. If there is a girl that is especially attractive and close to my ideal type, I&#8217;m going to talk to her whether she knows I exist or not.</p>
<p>Still, we&#8217;re not perfect, and there will be times when there is a girl you should have approached but didn&#8217;t. Maybe you were in a bad mood, or maybe you still worry about spectators listening in on your game. The result is that girl is gone, probably forever, and you learned nothing about how to get with her. You may feel guilty in the process. The next best thing you can do is replay the event in your head and imagine what you could have done differently. </p>
<p>How would you have opened her? How would the first minute of the conversation have been like? </p>
<p>Then if you are presented with a similar opportunity again, you simply have to repeat your mental performance for real life. Just do what you&#8217;ve already rehearsed. One reason I&#8217;m good at approaching because my mind has done it thousands of times, even when I wasn&#8217;t actually doing it. </p>
<p>Different <a href="http://www.pickupartistmindset.com/approaching/approaches-that-go-nowhere/">approach situations</a> can be very similar, especially if you have a general routine of places you frequent and hang out at. Mentally rehearsing approaches better prepares you for an episode that will happen again. </p>
<p>Feeling regret or inadequate is good because it will spur you to action. That&#8217;s how I got into the game, when I had a lot of bottled-up shame for not being able to get laid regularly. After starting from zero I became a man obsessed. I read the psychology books, did the approaches, and learned from alpha males in the field who already had a piece of skill that I wanted. I kept going for six years until I could cross out girls from my list of problems in life.</p>
<p>But it won&#8217;t take you six years. </p>
<p>In my book Bang I share with you the best strategies and techniques that took me forever to learn. If you study Bang I&#8217;m confident your learning curve will be a lot shorter than mine. I&#8217;m not saying it won&#8217;t take time and practice, but I am saying you&#8217;ll be surprised how fast your skill increases after applying my system. If you&#8217;re ready to give Bang a try, <a href="/go/order">click here</a> to order today. If you don&#8217;t like it then simply <a href="http://www.pickupartistmindset.com/contact/">email me</a> to get your money back no-questions-asked.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I was in a bar and found myself standing near a cute girl who was dancing with a random guy. I wanted to observe for a few seconds to see if they were experiencing a love connection or not so I wouldn&#8217;t waste my time. I must have taken too long because when I was about to make my move the girl&#8217;s fat friend gets in front of me and says, &#8220;You want her, don&#8217;t you? You so want her. She&#8217;s hot isn&#8217;t she?&#8221; </p>
<p>What the f*&amp;%?!</p>
<p>And she said it with such disdain. It put me on the spot and I didn&#8217;t have a good comeback. I said, &#8220;No hablo ingles,&#8221; a terribly weak response. I just wasn&#8217;t prepared.</p>
<p>Even thinking about it now, there isn&#8217;t an obvious correct move. If I say yes then I show my cards right away, but if I say no then I set myself up for, &#8220;So why are you looking at her? Why are you talking to her? It&#8217;s obvious you like her.&#8221;</p>
<p><img src="http://www.pickupartistmindset.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/cockblocker-201x300.jpg" alt="Cockblocker" width="201" height="300" class="floatright" />This cockblock was so effective that I had a dream about it. I woke up and decided to harness its power and adapt it for use on other guys. Now if a guy is moving in on a girl I&#8217;m interested in, and I feel that I&#8217;m losing power, I can ask him in front of her, &#8220;Do you like her?&#8221; </p>
<p>If he says yes then I can put him in a bad position by saying, &#8220;Well you should buy her a drink then!&#8221; If he buys her a drink then he&#8217;s just another beta male <a href="http://www.pickupartistmindset.com/bars-clubs/how-to-isolate-girl/">in the bar</a> and if he doesn&#8217;t then it looks awkward because he just verbally admitted his affection for her.</p>
<p>If he says he doesn&#8217;t like her or weasels out of answering I&#8217;ll say, &#8220;Well there are a lot of girls here. I&#8217;m sure you will find someone who you like if you keep trying. Don&#8217;t give up!&#8221; He&#8217;s done. It&#8217;s like I&#8217;m giving him relationship advice in front of the girl.</p>
<p>He is going to scramble and say, &#8220;Oh, um, I&#8217;m not here to pick up girls.&#8221; Now he just put his dick in a box. Without even raising your voice or having to get tough, you can suck the game out of any guy with very simple verbal ninja. Hell, this technique worked on me even though I spend the bulk of my time thinking about these things.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s okay to get bitched in the field. But it&#8217;s not okay to get bitched in the same way twice. A great thing about experience is that you put yourself in a lot of situations that you&#8217;ll see more than once. Use your down time to think about how to better react for the next time. </p>
<p>That&#8217;s all it means to have <a href="http://www.pickupartistmindset.com/general-advice/ten-fresh-sample-pages-from-my-game-book-bang/">&#8220;tight&#8221; game</a>—to be ready for whatever is thrown at you. It&#8217;s about refining and improving what you do until it&#8217;s mastered.</p>
<p>So I thought about what to say the next time a fat girl asks me if I like her friend. I&#8217;ll say, &#8220;Why do you ask, do you want me to like her? Because I like everyone!&#8221; Then I&#8217;ll put my arms around both girls and say how I&#8217;m having a great time. All this is done with a huge smile on my face. I want to squash her negativity with a fun party vibe that makes her look really bad if she continues cockblocking. </p>
<p>I think this is much better than saying &#8220;I don&#8217;t speak English&#8221; in Spanish. </p>
<p>It&#8217;s only by THINKING, with the help of experience, that I figured out this easy method to put the brakes on other guys. It&#8217;s how I came up with <a href="http://www.pickupartistmindset.com/general-advice/7-things-you-can-do-to-improve-your-game-right-now/">a lot of tricks</a> that have made getting laid easy.</p>
<p>Now I&#8217;m sure there&#8217;s a lot of guys who get laid more than me, but the problem is they&#8217;re unable to explain why they&#8217;re successful. These &#8220;naturals&#8221; will say something trivial like &#8220;Just be cool&#8221; or &#8220;Be funny&#8221; when you ask them how they always get girls. The reason is because they simply don&#8217;t know what they do correctly. </p>
<p>Well I&#8217;m not a natural. I&#8217;ve had to learn everything the hard way, and I&#8217;ve examined every little behavior and line and move to see if it works or not. After six years of experiencing and thinking about game, I captured all the techniques that actually work, that are explainable and reproducible for other average guys just like me, into a book called Bang.</p>
<p>If you find yourself in the spot where you&#8217;re not getting the girls you want, then I think the system I teach will make your life a lot less frustrating. With my book you will build the confidence and know-how to bang a girl quickly without having to wine and dine her in the hopes that she may open her legs. If you&#8217;re doubtful about how much my book can help you, then <a href="/go/bang">click here</a> to learn about everything inside Bang.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I want to give two examples of how to drop the same job: a world-class clay potter.</p>
<p>You’re <a href="http://www.pickupartistmindset.com/bars-clubs/how-to-isolate-girl/">at a ba</a>r talking to some girl. The first question she asks you is “What do you do?” You reply, “I’m a world-class clay potter. I do exhibits here in D.C.” The girl looks at her friend and rolls her eyes. “What a loser, bragging about clay pots,” she thinks. The conversation dies down a couple minutes later.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.pickupartistmindset.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/club-girl-199x300.jpg" alt="Club Girl" width="199" height="300" class="floatright" />You’re at a bar talking to some girl. The first question she asks you is “What do you do?” You reply, “You mean for money?”</p>
<p>“Uh yeah for money.”</p>
<p>“Well it’s complicated.”</p>
<p>“Complicated?”</p>
<p>“Yeah well I work with the Earth. I make things with mud and dirt. Then I sell my mud creations to discerning individuals.”</p>
<p>“Are you serious?” she asks.</p>
<p>“Yeah I love mud. I just have this thing for mud. I mean, who doesn’t?”</p>
<p>“I don’t,” she scoffs.</p>
<p>“Well that’s a shame. Thanks to mud, I’m able to come to bars like this and buy this beer. Cause of MUD.”</p>
<p>“You’re weird.”</p>
<p>Then she gives you a look, wondering if you’re serious or not. Three hours later you’re banging her on your bed. On her way out, she notices a picture of you handing a clay pot to the mayor of some small Eastern European town, a piece you sold him years ago. You call her a few days later and she agrees to go out with you, and you sleep with her again.</p>
<p>Logic dictates that you should directly state an accomplishment to a girl in hopes of bedding her, but as many guys know, this doesn’t work. If logic worked, guys would be wearing t-shirts with their yearly income and/or dick size (the latter for me), yet in reality they would be labeled a douche and laughed out the bar.</p>
<p>Be shady and dance around the answer instead. Purposefully not impressing a girl is the best way to impress her, since it shows you don’t care about her and that your value is higher than hers. </p>
<p>Let her find out things eventually on her own by accident (after <a href="http://www.pickupartistmindset.com/flirting/how-to-flirt-by-email/">some insinuation</a> on your part) where the effect will be much more potent. Let her think: “Why didn’t he brag about this great accomplishment?” Let her come at you with a million personal questions instead of you laying it out there for her.</p>
<p>Before I studied the game no attractive girl would ask me questions about myself because I had no idea know how to convey my interesting qualities in a confident, non-needy manner. So the only girls who would hang out with me in college were ones who wanted to use my brain to help them study for exams. I was always the friend and never the guy that girls were sexually attracted to.</p>
<p>After college I decided to get this part of my life handled. I was lucky to have a couple friends who were club rats and knew how to approach and game women. I started off copying their moves and lines and in the course of six years I developed a system on my own that consistently builds attraction and results in phone numbers, make-outs, and bangs. </p>
<p>I no longer have to be friends with girls in the hopes that maybe one day she will want to have sex with me. I no longer hug my pillow at night wondering why I got shafted yet again. Now I meet a girl, game her, and wait for her to ask me questions that serves as a green light to take the interaction to the next level. </p>
<p>I recorded my system into an book that I call Bang. It has everything that I know about girls divided into five chapters of game: Internal, Early, Middle, Late, and End Game. </p>
<p>I&#8217;m confident it&#8217;s the only book you&#8217;ll ever need to read about banging girls, and I completely back it up with a no-questions-asked money back guarantee. If you&#8217;ve ever spotted a girl you were attracted to and wondered how you could talk to her in a way that ends in sex, then Bang is for you. <a href="/go/pages">Click here</a> to read ten full-length sample pages of Bang today.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here&#8217;s all you gotta do: start a contest with a friend on who can get the most bangs for the year. </p>
<p>The idea for the contest started by accident in 2008, when a friend and I were talking about our conquests during the summer. We informally kept count after that and at the end of the year there was a clear winner. Quality was not accounted for.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.pickupartistmindset.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/beach-girls-300x240.jpg" alt="Beach Girls" width="300" height="240" class="floatright" />For 2009 it became much more official. Every notch was put up on the leaderboard and without divulging too many details let me state that it definitely made the year more exciting. Someone was in the lead by three notches, another caught up, there was a back and forth for several months, many ties, text messages and email subject lines with &#8220;+1&#8243; flying around, and then finally two notches in the final half of December to cement the contestants&#8217; fates, giving birth to the phrase &#8220;clutch notch.&#8221; </p>
<p>Previously I had thought of the contest only as a male bonding exercise, but when reflecting on the year I realized something: I banged four girls that I wouldn&#8217;t otherwise&#8212;simply to not lose the contest. These girls were merely alright but they kept me in the game, so to speak.</p>
<p>You&#8217;d think sex and <a href="http://www.pickupartistmindset.com/sex/simple-move-to-defeat-bedroom-resistance/">the pursuit of notches</a> would be enough to push a man like myself to bang all that I could, but truth is after a while in the game you need something more as motivation. A simple contest, with no real stake, is what did it.</p>
<p>If you are not yet sure about how to approach, get numbers, and have girls agree to go on dates with you, then check out my book Bang. I explain all these topics in painful detail so that you can go right out and start applying the techniques without the huge learning curve I had to go through.</p>
<p>How would your sex life change if you could approach more, or get more numbers, or get flaked on less? If it would change for the better, then I think you&#8217;ll like my book. <a href="/go/bang/">Click here</a> to learn more about Bang today.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Sometimes there is the question of when you should approach a girl you&#8217;re attracted to. </p>
<p>How about if you just came into the bar, still have your coat on, and see a girl you like. Should you approach or wait? How about if SHE just came <a href="http://www.pickupartistmindset.com/bars-clubs/how-to-isolate-girl/">in the bar</a> and didn&#8217;t even get her first drink yet. Should you approach or wait? How about if she is on her way to the bathroom, holding hands with her girlfriend. Should you approach or wait?</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t have 100% correct answers to these types of situations, but I do know that there will ALWAYS be a better time to approach a girl. You can always be in a better mood, you can be more &#8220;on,&#8221; the environment could be quieter, or she could be standing alone simply looking around for any guy to talk to her. </p>
<p><img src="http://www.pickupartistmindset.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/approach-300x199.jpg" alt="Approach worthy" width="300" height="199" class="floatright" />The thing that&#8217;s more important than picking the right time to talk to a girl is simple <strong>TALKING TO THE GIRL</strong>. </p>
<p>If you sit there thinking about if you should talk to her, and then end up not even trying, then it didn&#8217;t really matter did it? There is the &#8220;best&#8221; time and then there is &#8220;opportunity.&#8221; If you see an opportunity with a girl who, for example, is going to the bathroom and you&#8217;re standing in her path, then you should open your mouth and say something because I bet you the best time to approach her will not happen before the night is out. </p>
<p>Besides, if there was a bar or club where the best situation always happened and girls were extremely approachable, it&#8217;d be filled with guys pretty quickly.</p>
<p>As long as you open your mouth and say something, you&#8217;re halfway there. Okay maybe not halfway but approaching really is the hardest part of the game, and the more you THINK about approaching, the less you&#8217;ll DO it. </p>
<p>The truth is that most guys have <a href="http://www.pickupartistmindset.com/approaching/brutal-subway-rejection/">never approached a girl in their life</a>. </p>
<p>Imagine that for a second. (If you&#8217;re one of those guys then you don&#8217;t have to imagine.)</p>
<p>They have never walked up to a girl they liked and talked to her. So the only girls they meet are from friends or the mediocre girls that approach them first. </p>
<p>And even when they meet girls, they have no idea how to build attraction and take things to the next level. If the girl does it for them, then great, but if not then back to PornHub (a site I&#8217;m not bashing, but just saying).</p>
<p>That was me, and I got tired of watching a small percentage of guys get most of the women while I begged for scraps. I put myself on a mission to be THAT GUY, the one who you see in a bar and hate because he&#8217;s getting girls even though he has average looks and dresses like a bum with t-shirts his little sister bought for him years ago (true story). </p>
<p>After I became that guy, I wrote how to do it in Bang. But this is no easy fix because I&#8217;m not selling you snake oil or pig pheromones. You will not see a magic transformation in just one weekend. Instead it will take quite a bit of work on your part to get to the point where you can approach girls and take them home on the same night. Still, if you apply my teachings I think in two months time you will see a noticeable improvement.</p>
<p>All I can offer you is the knowledge to make it happen, and it&#8217;ll be up to you to practice it until you become &#8220;that guy&#8221; yourself. <a href="/go/pages">Click here to read full-length sample pages of Bang</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The assumption a lot of guys make about girls is that they all respond the same, that game is game and things should work regardless of where the girl is from. This is what I believed when I exported my &#8220;Western game&#8221; to South America, but after six months my results were meager and much less than I was getting in the States. </p>
<p>Let me share with you six quick tips that will help you score while on the road&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>1. DO YOUR RESEARCH. </strong>Before you board the plane, ask your wingmen if they&#8217;ve had experiences with girls from that country. When you arrive, make friends with the local guys and ask them for their opinions on the girls. Or go on <a href="http://www.rooshvforum.com">my travel forum</a> and do a search on the country you want to visit. What you want to do is take some notes to study from before you take the &#8220;exam.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>2. ADAPT. </strong>On a two week vacation, you simply don&#8217;t have the time to learn a new game, but you do have time to make easy adjustments that affect how the locals respond to you.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.pickupartistmindset.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/travel-300x200.jpg" alt="travel" title="Travel" width="300" height="200" class="floatright" />For example in Peru, the more you look like a gringo (think Abercrombie &#038; Fitch), the better you&#8217;ll do with the girls in the club, so leave the Ecuadorian soccer jersey at home. In Argentina the kiss is a big deal, so delay your kiss attempt longer than usual so you don&#8217;t get blown out early.</p>
<p><strong>3. APPROACH IN MASSIVE NUMBERS. </strong>The big myth of traveling is that you will get more abroad than you do at home, but with so many obstacles (no cell phone, no pad, no wingmen, language barrier, lack of venue knowledge, and so on), the only way to make up for them is to <a href="http://www.pickupartistmindset.com/approaching/how-to-pick-up-girls-who-speak-a-different-language/">approach a lot more</a> than you normally do. </p>
<p>With a large percentage of girls closed off to having sex with a gringo who is only in town for a weekend, sometimes you need to just keep going until you find a slutty girl who speaks your language. It&#8217;ll probably take a lot more energy than you&#8217;re used to at home.</p>
<p><strong>4. PUT IN THAT QUALITY TIME. </strong>One night stands with American, English, Irish, and Australian girls aren&#8217;t a problem because they are the easiest in the world. There are some exceptions, but keep in mind you may need to put in more face time with a local until you bang. Don&#8217;t get discouraged if she doesn&#8217;t put out on the first date and simply keep going as long as you&#8217;re getting closer to sex on each date.</p>
<p><strong>5. TAKE IT EASY ON THE ALCOHOL. </strong>While at home you&#8217;re mostly on <a href="http://www.pickupartistmindset.com/bars-clubs/how-to-pick-up-girls-at-a-bar/">auto-pilot at bars</a> you know with wingmen you trust, but when you&#8217;re abroad you need that extra energy because of the increased number of approaches you&#8217;ll have to do. Therefore it&#8217;s far better to pound Red Bull than a six-pack of beer.</p>
<p><strong>6. BE THE LIFE OF THE PARTY.</strong> When you can&#8217;t communicate with words, let your fun nature and vibe do all the talking. Dance with her, smile, touch, and genuinely have a good time. Positive energy is an aphrodisiac that girls are drawn into. </p>
<p>Understand: if you can get laid with pretty girls who barely speak your language then there aren&#8217;t many challenges you can&#8217;t face. Banging abroad is one of the most worthiest tests of your game.</p>
<p>The reason I was able to learn how to pick up in a different country is because of my willingness to experiment and try new things just to see what happens. It took me six years of experimenting at home with American girls until the result was an optimized game system that worked more often than not.</p>
<p>Before that I was your typical nice guy who was the &#8220;emotional tampon&#8221; of girls I liked. I&#8217;m not sure why I thought it was a good idea to be friends first with girls but turns out a lot of guys have that &#8220;strategy.&#8221; Unfortunately it simply doesn&#8217;t work. </p>
<p>After college you have a lot of guys working their ass off to get that fancy business card with the important job title. But what a rude surprise when they find out that doesn&#8217;t work either! Girls don&#8217;t care about your job or your bank account if you don&#8217;t have the right game to back it up.</p>
<p>In my book Bang I teach you the correct strategy to go from meet to bedroom in the shortest amount of time with girls that you actually like, instead of the below-average ones who like you. We&#8217;re not going to brag about our job or luxury condo or anything like that. Instead we&#8217;re going to use my conversational strategy and dozens of little tricks that work. It&#8217;s a system I still use today.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m confident that Bang will put your a lot closer to picking up girls you like, both regularly and consistency. <a href="http://www.pickupartistmindset.com/go/pages">Click here to read sample pages.</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The following excerpt from <a href="/go/bang">Bang</a> discusses the middle ground between compliments and insults&#8230;</p>
<blockquote><p>The opposite of a compliment is an insult, something you should also avoid. If you had a linear scale with a compliment on one end being a 1 and an insult on the other end being a 10, some of the material you&#8217;ve read so far reach into the 6 range. Their purpose is to let a girl know that you are not impressed with her, even if below the surface you really are. The more you show her you&#8217;re impressed, the more likely she will perceive her value as being too high for you. Sex withholding follows as a result. </p>
<p>While saying &#8220;You&#8217;re too old for me&#8221; may seem like an insult on the surface, it is taken as a joke when you have already established a fun and playful vibe. Context here is important: if you were talking about something boring like politics all night and then all of a sudden you tell her she&#8217;s too old for you, she will get offended. But if you were already joking around with her for a while, she&#8217;ll know that it&#8217;s just a part of your personality. </p>
<p>Regardless, some girls will get insulted by your humor and think, &#8220;Who does this guy think he is?&#8221; While I don&#8217;t apologize to any girl who takes my humor wrong, I definitely don&#8217;t continue to push her buttons once she is already upset. To me her annoyance is either a sign of incompatibility or a bad line on my part. Did I accidentally say the wrong thing or did she get offended at a line that girls normally respond well to? I make a judgment call if this interaction can be saved or if there is another girl around that my time could be better spent with. Because trying to convince her that you were joking is a form of beta male supplication, it&#8217;s best to move on if your material is poorly received. The goal of material in the middle of our compliment-insult scale is to make her aware of her own faults instead of yours. Once the focus is taken off you, she will be much more susceptible to game.</p></blockquote>
<p><img src="http://www.pickupartistmindset.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/insult-225x300.jpg" alt="" width="225" height="300" class="floatright" />The last two sentences are very important. Solid game makes the girl look <strong>inward</strong> to her own faults or lacks. Your backhanded compliments and teasing takes the focus off your uneven chin, odd mannerisms, and balding scalp. If you have a rather large deformity then your game has to be that much more potent to compensate for the flaw. </p>
<p>Unfortunately you can&#8217;t just go around insulting girls, which is what a lot of guys do after they read books like <strong>The Game</strong>, where the &#8220;neg&#8221; was heavily featured. You can study negs all day and night but you&#8217;ll still fuck it up every time with the wrong tone or body language. It&#8217;s better to avoid its use until you get to an <a href="http://www.pickupartistmindset.com/general-advice/7-things-you-can-do-to-improve-your-game-right-now/">advanced Matrix-like level of game</a>, but by then you probably won&#8217;t even need to use them. Focus on material on the &#8220;6 range&#8221; like I explain above. I give tons of examples in my book.</p>
<p>Speaking of my book, here&#8217;s a recent email I received about it&#8230;</p>
<blockquote><p>How&#8217;s it going man? I recently put together enough money to buy Bang and I have to say it was not only worth every penny, but more. I don&#8217;t usually say shit like this (especially about things I have to pay for). I bought David DeAngelo&#8217;s DoubleYourDating eBook a few years back and I have to say that Bang BLEW IT AWAY. You can use this as a testimonial if you want. Oh, I have also read Swingcatt&#8217;s eBook and I not only had more laughs and a better time reading Bang, but I found it more useful and my game is doing so much better. I like your approach to the field, you put things simply in a way that I can understand. However, you use advanced tactics like DeAngelo and Swingcatt, but explain it on a step by step basis with examples to real life events and situations. I can&#8217;t thank you enough.</p></blockquote>
<p>If you haven&#8217;t yet bought Bang, check out <a href="/go/bang/">its homepage</a> and read a couple sample pages.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here&#8217;s an email I received recently&#8230;</p>
<blockquote><p>Roosh</p>
<p>Recently, ive been testing out a new approach and getting sporadic results.  im in israel for the summer and am seriously intent on hooking up with israeli girls. I simply approach a girl and ask her in poor, pathetic hebrew (even though im almost fluent) for her advice.  I tell her im looking for a cute, sweet israeli but have only found skanks. I ask if she can offer any advice. This worked on a waitress and i went out with her a couple times. other girls are simply not feeling it.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.pickupartistmindset.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/bad-strategy-210x300.jpg" alt="Girls" width="210" height="300" class="floatright" />How would u suggest i tighten/tweak this approach? Do u think its better to begin the conversation in english and then transition to hebrew?
</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>My Answer:</strong></p>
<p>Your opener sucks. Why would you be trashing &#8220;skanks&#8221; to girls you want to have fast sex with? It decreases attraction instead of building it. Tease and use humor and instead.</p>
<p>&#8220;Hi how are you. Do you know a good place where I can get _______?&#8221; Ask for some food, good hummus, whatever.</p>
<p>She&#8217;ll answer. Then you say&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8220;Also by the way i&#8217;m here for a short time. I&#8217;m looking for a nice wife&#8230;. can you maybe lead me to the right coffee shop where I can find one?&#8221; Then you <strong>smile</strong> so she knows you are joking.</p>
<p>She&#8217;ll laugh and you say, &#8220;No i&#8217;m just kidding but i don&#8217;t know many people here. This city is interesting though&#8230;&#8221;</p>
<p>Then ramble from there. Try a <a href="http://www.pickupartistmindset.com/approaching/how-to-pick-up-girls-on-the-street/">couple approaches</a> in bad Hebrew and a couple in English to see which works better. Work off that and don&#8217;t email me back until you get some action.</p>
<p>Approaching is the hardest part of the game. There is nothing natural or easy about walking up to a girl you don't know and talking to her in a way that makes her laugh, builds attraction, and ends with her giving you her phone number.
<br><br>
After approaching hundreds of different girls with all types of openers, I finally settled on two that are my "defaults," meaning they are powerful enough that I can use them regardless of the girl or the environment. I share them in my book Bang, along with others you can use for bars, clubs, daytime spots, and even the gym. It has 64 pages on Early Game that focus exclusively on the approach and what to say immediately after. I share dozens of conversation tips with tons of word-for-word examples, and I also teach you the concept of threads to keep the interaction going without having awkward silences. 
<br><br>
You can take the time to make up openers on your own, experimenting over the next several months, or you can learn mine and get started using something that works off the bat.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here&#8217;s a simple move I came up with in Colombia, a place where the girls put up a lot of boner-busting resistance before the bang. </p>
<p>If you&#8217;re in bed with a girl for a while and keep hitting a wall, say the following:</p>
<p>&#8220;How about we take a quick nap?&#8221;</p>
<p>What girl refuses a nap? After messing around for a while you both will be in half-sleep mode anyway. </p>
<p><img src="http://www.pickupartistmindset.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/resistant-225x300.jpg" alt="Ask her to take a nap" width="225" height="300" class="floatright" />Then after a couple minutes say, &#8220;I don&#8217;t sleep in my jeans though.&#8221;</p>
<p>Take off your jeans without waiting for her to respond. Then say, &#8220;You sleep in your jeans? They&#8217;re uncomfortable, no?&#8221;</p>
<p>Most girls will then reluctantly take off their jeans, maybe adding a &#8220;But we&#8217;re not doing anything&#8221; comment. Agree with her. If she is hesitant to take them off, say, &#8220;You can take off your jeans but I don&#8217;t want you to get too excited because I just want to sleep a little.&#8221; </p>
<p>The whole point of this is getting those jeans off because subsequent dry humping with only boxers and panties will <a href="http://www.pickupartistmindset.com/sex/when-youre-trying-to-date-a-girl-who-is-about-to-travel/">turn her on</a> more than jean-on-jean dry humping. The odds of sex happening when she gets down to her panties is extremely high (I estimate 80%). Try it.</p>
<p>While it&#8217;s essential you know how to talk to a girl and make her feel attracted to you, it&#8217;s even more important to know the little tricks and moves that get her clothes off as efficiently as possible. This is what I call being &#8220;sleazy.&#8221; It pays to be a sleazy because the girl is not going to do it for you unless she&#8217;s exceptionally drunk or slutty.</p>
<p>In my book <strong>Bang</strong> I teach you all my escalation moves that increase the chances of you getting the bang. I even give you an exact line to use when you want to get the condom without making the moment awkward. <a href="/go/bang/">Click here to read my condom line on the Bang homepage</a>.</p>

<p>Alcohol is a magical drug that makes getting laid significantly easier, and I&#8217;m not talking about getting girls drunk. Just one drink increases the chance you will get laid about 20%. Three drinks in her system is all you need.</p>
<p><font size=4><strong>6. You don&#8217;t work out.</strong></font> </p>
<p>You&#8217;re a fright to look at naked. You don&#8217;t have to be a meathead, but if you feel good about your body then you&#8217;ll feel good about yourself, and this comes across in a positive attitude with girls you talk to.</p>
<p><font size=4><strong>7. You&#8217;re a pussy.</strong></font> </p>
<p>You don&#8217;t want to get rejected. You don&#8217;t understand that guys who get the most women also get rejected the most.  </p>
<p><font size=4><strong>8. You don&#8217;t know how to make a girl laugh.</strong></font> </p>
<p>Two types of humor work well on girls: sarcasm (not the biting kind) and fake answers. An example of the latter: &#8220;You want to know what I do? Well I&#8217;m living off the land right now. Yeah I have a farm. I grow tomatoes. Do you like tomatoes?&#8221;</p>
<p><font size=4><strong>9. You have an extreme deformity that hopefully can be fixed with either hard work (obesity) or surgery (gigantic nose).</strong></font> </p>
<p>Modern science has come a long way.</p>
<p><font size=4><strong>10. You don&#8217;t have confidence.</strong></font> </p>
<p>You don&#8217;t look in the mirror and like what you see. You don&#8217;t believe that you were meant to sleep with lots of girls. You&#8217;ve given up and sloth around playing video games or poker, praying and hoping that maybe one day you&#8217;ll get lucky instead of doing the work necessary to be an interesting, confident man that girls like.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.pickupartistmindset.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/girl-next-door-225x300.jpg" alt="Girl next door" width="225" height="300" class="floatright" /><font size=4><strong>11. You limit your prospect pool by only going after girls at work or in your meager social circle.</strong></font> </p>
<p>You think the only way to get a girl is to have some sort of prior introduction. You&#8217;ve never tried walking up to her cold in a bar, coffee shop, or bookstore.</p>
<p><font size=4><strong>12. You believe you need to be friends with a girl first.</strong></font> </p>
<p>You think that a girl has to see you as a buddy before she can see you as a lover. Unfortunately there is no animal lust in friendship. By being friends first, you almost guarantee that that&#8217;s all you&#8217;ll ever be. </p>
<p><font size=4><strong>13. You do dinner dates.</strong></font> </p>
<p>They greatly decrease your chances of getting action. Not only does all that food impede the absorption of the wine (see number five), but you&#8217;re sitting far away from her, unable to touch. Do drink dates instead where you can sit right next to her as that alcohol takes hold.</p>
<p><font size=4><strong>14. You&#8217;re not persistent.</strong></font></p>
<p>You give up way too easily. You don&#8217;t understand that you may need to get rejected a few dozen times before you come across a girl that likes you. Maybe more. Second to not even trying, giving up too early is the most common mistake guys make.</p>
<p><font size=4><strong>15. Your breath reeks.</strong></font> </p>
<p>It doesn&#8217;t matter how fun or good-looking you are, but if your breath smells then you&#8217;re not getting anything. </p>
<p><font size=4><strong>16. You have limited life experiences.</strong></font> </p>
<p>It&#8217;s hard to hold a conversation with a women if all you know about is sports. You can fake it a bit if you&#8217;re a voracious reader, but the best way to talk about interesting things is to do interesting things. Chances are that doesn&#8217;t involve a computer or television.</p>
<p><font size=4><strong>17. You&#8217;re cheap.</strong></font> </p>
<p>You need to pay to play. This means keeping up a presentable appearance and going to places where the women are. Even the cheapest drinks at happy hour bars are going to cost you money, and many of those dates will not result in sex. Unless you&#8217;re in Thailand paying $10 a bang you&#8217;re going to have to get used to the idea that it costs money to get laid. Just don&#8217;t confuse this with showing off your money to women. If you&#8217;re interesting and make a girl laugh, she won&#8217;t care you&#8217;re poor in order to have sex with you, though she may not see you as long-term potential. </p>
<p><font size=4><strong>18. You&#8217;re not cool.</strong></font> </p>
<p>Do other people not want to hang out with you? Do they dislike your company? Do people make fun of you behind your back? Do you have trouble maintaining friendships? Do you look or dress like an idiot? While the definition of being cool depends on where you live, it does involve a degree of fitting into society, as the girls you will be trying to bang live in said society as well. If you&#8217;re going to be uncool, then you will have to hang in places where uncool girls are and try to get with them (e.g. goth bar).</p>
<p>To improve your game sometimes it&#8217;s more important to stop doing bad things than to learn a new routine or opener. It&#8217;s better to be just a normal guy who can have a conversation than a socially awkward reject who turns women off. I learned this during my seven year quest to learn game, where I methodically broke down all my behaviors and noted what worked and what didn&#8217;t. I compiled all that into my inexpensive book <a href="/go/bang"><strong>Bang</strong></a>, which teaches you everything I&#8217;ve learned from meeting girls to how to approach them to dating strategy to sealing the deal and a lot more. Within only two months I think you will see a huge difference in how women respond to you. <a href="/go/bang">Check out sample pages of Bang today</a> before you buy.</p>
