@longusername12345 Man I miss being a teenager, the number 1 thing that will kill you in high school is being to needy, you made a few mistakes that honestly couldn't have been avoided. Give her space go talk to other friends and try talking to other girls, just don't initiate contact with her for at least 2 weeks or until she contacts you first. When she does, completely skip over the car incident and if she brings it up just casually brush it off like you guys were talking about the weather. But expect her not to feel the same way about you after you fumbled the bag Since everybody's giving their failed experiences I got one for ya, Back in 11th grade somehow I managed to game one of the finest girls in our grade and convinced her to sneak out of school with me during a pep rally. We sneak out and tell her to drive back to my house laughing how we got away and I bring her straight to my room. We talk for a little bit, sill not believing we snuck out and started making out. We get all the way to third base and I start gushing how I had a longest crush on her and how beautiful she was and how we should be together and she laughed at me, literally stopped kissing me when we were basically naked and laughed at me. Ended up ruining the mood and she wanted to go back home and left me. I proceeded to go full stalker mode trying to get her back to my house for at least 2 weeks straight, enough to the point where she blocked me. After some time at the end of junior year I mustered up the courage to ask her wtf happened why did she ghost me when we were so close to banging, and she said "you just wanted it too bad it was so weird, we probably would've fucked if you weren't so creepy about it" This was probably the sole reason to what drove me to learn pickup now that I think back on it, letting a dime piece like her slip away after being so close still stings

@Kras It sounds like your relatively new to dating if your concerned about getting a kiss lol, sometimes it could be something your doin wrong, other times it may be completely out of your control. If you've only been on a dozen or so dates you have such little reference experiences you won't know which is which. Also not every woman needs to kiss you on the first date, thats what you want, most women dont want to sexuality commit to a man if its the first time their hanging out together unless you screen them out properly. You should work on building a sexual connection with your girl, making it more man to woman, being relaxed, seductive, ect. The very fact she said you she wants to see again even after you kissed her obviously shows she's still interested. Think of a date as "slowly boiling the pot" I dont know if your using Tinder or online dating but if you want more dtf girls you need a more polarizing profile, cast your net to a smaller audience with a bigger payoff. Join a pickup forum or reddit community and post your date reports on there and get feed back from actual people who go on dates, This would be your best bet on moving forward.

Isn't this a good thing because now there will be more regulation of big hedge fund companies? And if millions of people who are are investing their life savings into these bigs companies all of a sudden go bankrupt won't all their money be gone, so technically while reddit is doing something "heroic" there actually fucking up more people in the process. If this is the case I can see why Robinhood and these other corps are restricting trading.

I recently found out Leo doesn't stand in his videos he sits on a stool, that was a real ego-shattering moment had to rethink my life

Best of Wishes!!

Man you guys are blowing this way out of proportion its just an edgy teen action movie, relax

This is a pretty kick ass mentality but college?? Thats not where I would best use this mentality, go create a business, go talk to cute girls, reach your body's genetic potential all of this shit is difficult and its a lot more fun than trying to brute force your way through calculus or engineering.

Interesting thread, got a few questions for @Leo Gura How did you market Actualized.org when you first created it, did you post the self-development videos to build credibility with your audience to sell your LP course? Was the LP course your product and you created Actualized.org to market it? Was Youtube your main platform of marketing or did you use other methods as well? Why you think your channel stood out from other self-help gurus yt channels (before the spirituality) and gained traction. For people planning on using Youtube to market their services what key principles would you tell them to keep in mind?

Do both, work on your limiting beliefs and get good with girls, don't only do one you won't make much progress

@soos_mite_ah Theres actually a whole subreddit dedicated to finding stuff like this out believe it or not, it's called TrueRateMe. In my opinion the place reeks of incel and Redpill culture but their template on rating looks is one perspective to think about if you're interested. The general gist is that in terms of facial aesthetics a 1-3 is on the lower end end of the spectrum 4-6 is where most of society lands is 7 is your local hot chick or dude and 8-10 are model like status. This is the Rank system they use for Men~ https://i.imgur.com/1EpSoNB.jpg This is the Rank system they use for Women~ https://i.imgur.com/YlBqElb.png And this is how they determine those metrics~ https://i.imgur.com/vA5AUfp.jpg My take on it is that there are certain traits that all human beings find attractive and unattractive. One person may see someone as 5 but to you see them as 8 because they have certain preferences you enjoy (hight, build, race ect). This model does have its limitations as beauty is subjective but only up to a certain point. A 1-2 stands out just as much as a 9-10 does

I can actually give a unique perspective on this, my mentor isn't a celebrity but is extremely successful in his own right and the "vibe" you get from these people is on another level. You have no idea how "average" the people around you are (even that is an overstatement) until you consistently hang around people who have achieved massive success. These types of people are some of the most happiest and psychologicaly developed people Ive met and my worldview has expanded so much because of these interactions.

@Leo Gura Interesting thread, since your on vacation you should reminisce about your pua journey and put it on your blog, I feel it would help put some pieces together for younger guys who were once in your situation or the men who have this victim mindset on the forum. What was your "Wow this pua stuff actually works" moment? Every person I've met who went through their pua stage have all this moment, just curious

Man history class is gonna be entertaining af for the next generation of kids

Ive never really understood why people do this, he gives good relationship advice and seems like a generally good person, so what if he likes Trump that doesn't mean he's a bad person. Everybody has some believes or options other people might not like. Also I'm starting to find out most people on this forum don't really understand spiral dynamics and just lump people into a certain category based on some common stereotypes. S.D is not a good measure when looking at individuals

Jesus $6000 I love the dedication, but from my personal experience the biggest bang for my buck came from doing bootcamps a good bootcamp from a good teacher costs around $2000 but man does it skyrocket your results. Having people who studied game for years break down what you're doing wrong when talking to women, correcting your vibe, reading social cues, frame gives you a much deeper understanding on attraction. Going out with experienced people to clubs, bars, ect is one way to speed up your results, if money is an issue try looking at pick up groups near you and try to link up and go out with them but if it isn't pay the money and go out with a "professional"

At least have a few sexual encounters with women before making this decision. You've never been with anybody so how do you know you dont need anyone? Your creating a limiting belief which can easily turn into redpill or incel ideology, (not saying it will but its easily to fall into one of these paths if based on your story) I don't want to pressure you you or anything, but I would encourage you to start taking dating serious, (at least 5-7 partners over the next 2 years which should be easy enough) and then make your decision. 14-24 is where most of your socialization skills develop. Its hard for the average person to honestly get better past this age at dating as your faced with more responsibilities in life and can't delegate as much time and energy into dating. Wait until this whole Covid situation is done and then start hitting the streets! In the mean time write down any limiting beliefs that you believe is preventing you from attracting women to you and genuinely contemplate on them.

Ive never really understood the no fap craze. Most people Ive talked to who have a fapping issue stems from porn addiction, like if you take away the porn most guys literally can't get off. if you can't go 2 weeks minimum without jerking off you have an addiction. You're not supposed to feel drained after you bust you gotta give your Johnson a break.

@GroovyGuru Can layout what your typically do in day? (time block) How much of your time is spent doing focused work? Just curious.

Hahah, this is the RSD I remember that took my game to another level, if the product is anything like this and touches over main attraction sticking points like vibe, frame, congruence, paradigm, overcoming limiting beliefs ect. This will be the only course you need when it comes to building attraction, buy it

Don't do this if you have no game and fear talking to women the last thing you would want to do is get hookers. Not only will create new limiting beliefs about women that will only hurt you but you'll be even worse of than you started. If you suck with women this bad, you just gotta tough tf up and go approach or at least socialize with women. There are certain lessons you can't skip when it comes to attraction if one doesn't want to learn them well...tough titty

This is a nice take, when you start getting good at attracting girls you realize they they have their own life, beliefs ect and their not obligated to agree on your advances, if there not on your vibe just wish them best of luck and go about your day, don't create a story in your head about what happened just keep moving, it's really that simple

@knakoo Great advice, I remember reading that reddit post a while back, its funny to know the the person who created it is on this forum The goal every guy should have in dating is to just "be" and let attraction come naturally without the need of mind games, negging, pedasltes, worrying about being high value ect, you can just let things happen naturally. But this is only after you learn how to attract women (I suggest pick up), integrate it into your own personality and then transcend it altogether. If you go about dating the right way you should come full circle, I started off as a "nice guy" and worked hard to break that pattern, got deep into pick up and learning all these "tactics" Leo often talks about, (they do work btw) and got great results and then started doing intense emotional healing and spirituality work. Honestly I even feel more of a "nice guy" then when I started because I know its authentic and not some cover to gain approval. Theres is no "talk to her like you're a king" or "look for something to neg on" but just being natural which makes dating feel sooo much better. Don't aim to just get chicks, but also aim to clean up and make the process of getting chicks more conscious and non-manipulative, make it enjoyable for everyone

Or you you can just type your question

@Yonkon Great post!

My mother is in her 50's and has had metal fillings for about 15 years, should I convince her to get them removed? She's has no side effects and seems full of energy, should I be worried? I didn't even know this was even a thing to be concerned of, this whole process seems daunting, especially considering one wrong step and you can fuck everything up
