Kyle, a PUA rookie, just finished reading The Game and all about the Mystery Method. After carefully reviewing his notes in the club bathroom, he exits to make his planned approach to a group of girls who's celebrating their best friend's 21st birthday. "Hey ladies, can I get a quick female opinion about something?" Half interested, they lean in for the question. "Who lies more, men or women?" Occupied by the overflow of alcohol from their hot waiter and excitement from all the celebrations, Kyle is given a one word answer and brushed off by the entire group: "men." As he walks away, he smirks a smile. Kyle has actually gained from the interaction, +1xp. woOt! :D
Not every approach will be successful. Not every shot will make it through the hoop. But any step is a step worth making. In this game - Even when you lose, you gain. Treat it like XP points in an RPG. After losing all your lives in a video game, you are faced with the words: "GAME OVER. Continue?" Do you go cry to your friends? Or complain about how badly you lost until the night is over? No. You have the option to continue, so take it. Each approach is like shooting hoops. Michael Jordan doesn't go cry to his team if he misses a shot. Keep at it, and you'll keep growing. Don't get so affected by a sour approach. Calibration is key. So make sure you're paying attention to the environment, mood, and energy of those around you.
