The whole “pickup art” IMO is a nonsense. As well is a nonsense (again IMO) any “woman’s advice” in that field. (Anyway  both the “pickup art” and the “woman’s advice” can give you some wise suggestion for the other parts of your life).

Why? Because

1) everybody is different. What attracts me to a woman is exactly what make run away an other man. For a woman is the same. What attracts a particular woman is what make run away an other.

2)If u want to “play a number game”….Then the context make 90% of the score. Speaking of “number game” the most successful men (in that field ) that I know (as well: the most successful women in that field that I know) “works” only in a determinate social environment, where they are successful….again: into find the biggerst number of “…..” and it is not necessary related of their general success in that environment Out of that environment only a really small % of people is still “successful”….in a “number game of bed companions”.  Conclusion: do you want to “play a number game”? Then “find your environment”. There is no land where “the grass is green for all”.

3) To listen “the body language” is a recipe for disaster (especially when the verbal language said the opposite).  People (men and women) rarely know what they really want, but they are not always ready for to discover it. A woman (but ...even a man) may be attracted by you, but until she consciously chooses not only to accept this fact but (and this is most important) also to consciously  act by herself leaded by her feelings toward you ...you, in the best of the hypothesis will gain nothing. And to push someone to recognize her/his unconscious drives is a very dangerous road….and it is a road that does not always lead to the desired destination. What a person consciously do, is often (not always, but often) made by the social, cultural, and historical context, and you cannot change it.

4) Now this is complicated. For to introduce this fourth point I would like to destroy a myth, a really popular myth (and IMO a really dangerous one, particularly for the young men). If you see a beautiful woman, you may think that  a) she have a successful sexual life or b) she doesn’t care to have a “mate”. Well, (sad but true story here) one of my best female friends, is a really beautiful woman who have an active social life, and nonetheless, despite her attempts, she rarely find any “mate”. (and cause of her life, she can explore different “ social environments” -see point 2). She can not, despite her will. (And despite the will of others). Why? The answer is too long, but my point is that even when it seem that all odds are in your favor, you can lose in this game.

Anyway ….I hope to find someone who prove that I’m wrong.

Yeah dude, he said he gave seminars and stuff about it, and even had a book to sell us. He's probably on youtube ads shown to people who have a browsing history of Googleing dating advice. He's probably so pro at dating that he doesnt even do it anymore, maybe you turn gay or something when you reach max level dater
