Just an update to this. I've been out today in Chester with a wing friend of mine. We're both working through
The Rules of the Game, and I'm up to Day 10 which required me to open 3 x sets, using openers, time constraints, and then a disqualifier, before ejecting from the set. I did all three pretty well, and even opened a few more besides.
In conversation with women I found myself very natural and easy, and my initial AA with women has disappeared. I am also getting comfortable with a few canned openers, and feel myself becoming more congruent with them as I use them.
For the record, using canned material is a means to an end here. Eventually I aim to do away with the stuff, but in the meantime I am focussing on using it so I don't have to worry about what to say.
They say only 30% of what you communicate is verbal - so I am keeping what I say canned for the time being, and focussing on the other 70%. This means I can concentrate on my energy levels, my body language, and so on.
I am finding it increasingly easy to open sets now. I found myself using the disqualifiers - playful banter, essentially - also with ease. In time, I hope that these day game missions become full approaches, but I am taking baby steps.
I am also reading some David DeAngelo stuff, which is really good.
And I am on number 4/24 of The Blue Print. Tyler makes some really good points in this, and so far I have been really fascinated by what he is saying. His approach chimes in with my thoughts not exclusively on women, but on wider society. Quite apart from his points in the
PUA arena, the stuff he has on social conditioning is really very good to listen too.
Anyway, just thought I'd add that in. I am 100% off netgame now, and completely working on real life approaches. Hoping now that I've moved back to Uni that there might be some more night game on the way soon as well.
Happy daze!
