| People often have misconceptions of value, demonstrating higher value. Playing hard to get. Never giving up your power. Me me me. Negging the target "I blasted her with a shotgun neg" to lower her value. Some people find the game "Evil" just becuase of these things. Manipulation, insulting girls, AMOGing people, stabbing friends in the back, giving up on your AFC friends. I am sure many of you know what I am talking about.
These things are common among PUAs. It does not make it right though. It is what happens if you apply all of your textbook knowledge without having an understanding for how things really work.
I say that it is possible to avoid all of these things and remain a nice guy. (Or at least go back to being a good person.)
This is where inner game comes in. Does anyone ever feel completely satisfied with who they are? I hope not, we all have things to learn and to improve. Thats why we are here.
The worst "assholes" (excuse me guys) are the PUAs who just recently had their first successes with women. The ones that have discovered their power and start feeling confident and sometimes arrogant... Naaaaah that girl is too easy, and ugly...
I want to stress that I think that it is a good thing to be nice to people.
Let me start from the very first AFC beginning.
AFC: No inner game. This guy is normally either bitter and sits by his computer playing with parts of his body OR a nice polite guy who tries to be pleasant to every single person because he feeds off their leftover charisma or value like some kind of parasite. If these nice people like me maybe I can get accepted and I will do anything to get their approval. It is not strange, the AFC starts at value zero and does not create his own value but gets it from everyone else. (Yes I am aware that I am exaggregating and generalizing but I am trying to make a point.) People like him because he is nice to everyone, not a person to notice but so easy to just ignore, he just follows where you lead.
rAFC: This guy have started to realize that he has value. Still he depends too much on other peoples approval even though he tries to hide it behind routines. Still he is quite pleasant to people because his negs etc are just lines, and it shows. Sometimes he can say bad things but he is still a good person. This guy is not really so different from the AFC, but at least he is doing something about it. He tries to keep up a cool exterior but as soon as he stops thinking about it he is polite and seeks approval anyway.
New PUA: This guy has a high opinion of himself. He compares himself to his AFC friends and feels like a king (king of losers maybe but a king nonetheless). He believes that he has the higher value and he has definately worked to get it. He has spent countless hours building his inner game and improving his value. This man wouldnt dream of giving up his power. He would not dream of buying a rose for anyone ANYONE!!!!! Because that might show him as needy. People are trying to get my value, but its mine mine mine. Im not sharing! I dont have enough to go around, get your own value. Oh you have some value, let me steal it... Oh I cant, let me destroy it with this new cool neg I just read about. Basically, this guy is the opposite of a gentleman. He is selfish, sarcastic, competitive and he is always keeping an eye out for people to AMOG. He is also a parasite. But instead of living off the leftovers he is a predator, he hunts down and takes what people wont give to him. People still like him because he is fun (hopefully). And they gain value by hanging out with him since he acts like the alpha male. The young alpha male who fights his way to the top.
PUA: This guy has value, loads of it, he carries it with him. His inner game is good, not just something he read once, he knows what he is talking about. He can take negs, he can take shit tests, he can take a rejection. However, he does not back away from a fight. He is ready to protect his value in the situations where someone tries to take it from him. "Can I have some value please? No you cant, blam blam blam, he he, I AMOGed you, you suck loser!". This guy is generally nice to people but is ready to protect his value whenever there is a challenge, and there will be, just around the corner. But Im ready!
mPUA: This guy has inner game. (Note that I didnt start talking about value here immediately.) He feels ok about himself, he knows who and what he is, he is a good person. No need to fight with people, whats the point in that? So someone calls me an idiot, ok, whatever. Did I get angry? No why should I? You sir are an asshole. Oh yes, I am a bit brown and circular, good joke man.
What we call value is abundant in this guy. Noone can take it from him, he does not concern himself with "value" like the others do. It is more inner game for this man. He rarely have to fight to protect himself or his value. So someone tries to steal my value, hey no problems, I got enough for everyone, take what you need its on the house. Anyone else, VAAAALUE, 2 for the price of one, come and get it bring one home for your kids.
See the difference. enough inner game and you become untouchable. All attempts to affect your value will be nothing compared to how much you have got already.
The mPUA is a great person, polite, a gentleman, he can afford to lower his value, it does not matter. He can AFFORD to be nice! This is where we all wanna be!
