| Scenario
Alright so not long after joining I wandered into Slywalkers "10 things I wish someone would have taught me as a newbie" topic which helped me solidify more of my inner game. Following day I put them into action,after leaving my house to get a cigar I encountered an old female friend I was natural and confident. She even escalated kino before i had the chance to, sealing her number before she had to leave with her friends.
Shortly after I reached my friends house feeling more confident and after parking on the (legal) side of the street some guy on his porch drinking a beer confronts me aggressively about parking in front of his house. So this guy is in the process of threatening to call cops and reciting my plate number. I'm not one to be pushed around but I didn't want a useless escalation.
So I looked him directly in the eyes and asked "So what exactly do you want" puzzling him to stumble over his words and be silent. I defused the situation ending with me being thanked and I felt as if I brought him into MY frame. But I'm also not sure if I was non-dominant because I complied to moving my car.
Later on while hanging out with my friends I used Slywalkers techniques such as actually listening, talking less when listening, relating to what's being said, etc. I put the frame on the other person and conversations went on to my friends confiding a lot more with me and more of deeper connection, as well as AFTER the conversations the SPAM was more healthy and it seemed as by lowering my dominance vibe to connect, I was of higher value in their eyes.
Questions
So my questions involving the scenarios is
1). Can you be Alpha without being dominant[
(like my situation with the parking, I felt as if I was Alpha by seeming in my own reality and controlling the frame or was it Beta because I complied to moving my car?)
2). By passing the frame, seeming less dominant, and being sincere, do you create more likeability? (Like when I listened to my friends, they talked to me about things that really mattered to them,we had full meaningful conversations)
3). Under-Analyzing & Reviewing. By going through the day and interactions with a goal, then reviewing the interaction itself will you be more natural and successful? ( As mentioned I read Slywalkers topic, then put it into action making my interactions smoother (like how I had the confidence to close the number
These are kind the questions that have puzzled me on and off since i first began practicing PUA any insight is more than welcome
Thanks
