Pick-Up Artists vs. Players
People always assume that because I run a site on pick-up that I consider myself a pick-up artist. I don’t. I will never pretend that I have the “perfect” method of opening, attraction building, comfort building, and ultimately scoring a number or bouncing with the girl. I am nowhere near Mystery’s level of running sets in bars and clubs. I don’t get laid every time I go out. I am not obsessed with my performance and don’t break down every part of my delivery. No, I am not a pick up artist.
What I do consider myself is a player. What makes me a player? For one, I’ve slept with far more attractive girls than most people I know. And I’ve done it on my terms. Because of my understanding of “the game” I’ve been able to keep girls interested in sleeping with me long after they’ve realized I will not make a good boyfriend. Although I can not pull a girl every night I go out, there hasn’t been a weekend in 5 years that I haven’t had at least one girl to call for “late night sex.”
So why do I think I’ve been such a successful player:
These are the three traits of a good player. Sure a good player needs to be able to be good at pick-up. But he doesn’t need to be great. I’m sure that there are plenty of great Pick-up Artist who won’t see the amount of ass I’ve had in their entire lifetime.
Do girls leave you confused as to whether or not they like you?
Let's face it. Girl's don't make it easy for you. She will often send mixed signals leaving you unable to tell if she is being friendly or flirty. If you read her signals wrong you risk rejection and embarrassment. Or worse, you blow it with a girl who wanted to kiss you.
Here is a simple and innocent move that will instantly tell you if you're in the friend zone, or if she's waiting for you to kiss her.
