I know that when I'm pumped on the PUA life, I just want to talk about it with everybody and anybody. I want to get all of the knowledge out of my head, and into theirs. I want someone else to be "in the know."

Don't do this. The only men you should talk about PUA techniques with are:
1) Other PUAs
2) AFCs who have comunicated that they are dying to learn from you.

That's it.

The first thing I did back when I started was tell everyone. The majority find it creepy, manipulative, or a scam that suckers guys like me into spending money on seminars.

The only people you tell are people who have seen first hand that it works, and believe it works. With anyone else you are wasting your time. You want to teach an AFC friend? Great, go out sarging with him. Don't even MENTION your techniques. Then blow him away with your amazing "luck" with girls. You may only tell him when he practically begs to know.

Any time before that, and they refuse to believe. You then get labeled as a creep/loser/weirdo.

A magician NEVER reveals his tricks to anyone. You are a social magician. Act accordingly.

EDIT: modified my statements. This post now only refers to men. Females are a whole other story.

Interesting perspective. I actually tell almost all of my pick ups what I do. They find it extremely interesting and it ends up amping up their buying temp. Sorry, but I got to tell you, I'm not going to change what works when they are in the bed, on the couch, in the van, w/e, hollaring my name. After they've been told just an hour or two ago that I am into this community.

Agreed, I love to tell girls what I do for a living and they find it incredibly interesting as long as you know how to present it. They start to view you as a very sexual person as well, which amps up the buying temp.

We brought a girl back to my place last night to use her in role playing while doing a post-sarge with our students and even though the same techniques had been used on her only a month or two before (which she made several comments about), she still found it exciting, interesting and by the end of it her buying temp was through the roof.

i find this to be very true

All said above is true. I've modified my statements. This thread now only refers to men. Females are a whole other story.

Then yes. Keep your mouth shut to other men, cause they think you're fucked in the head and will try to challenge you to show off your skills in stupid ways, just to prove that you don't have the abilities you claim.

I talk about psychology and body language quite a bit when talking with women. You'll be surprised how receptive women are to a guy that has the ability to read people in such a fashion. I met a friend's sister (hb9) over the christmas break out a party and talked to her about the psychology behind attraction and talked about body language and even did a few cold readings. My friend came back a few weeks later and told me her sister was completely infatuated with me and thought I was totally amazing. Shame she's goes to school at FSU, but the point still stands.

I told one of my best friends all about the community and why its beneficial to anyone persuing a better lifestyle. He threw it in my face and argued to the bone about why he thinks its a scam or a joke. He has a healthy LTR and cannot relate.

I made him a bet one night that is going to get me $100 richer and at least a girlfriend happier. The bet is this: If I can get a girlfriend using PUA techniques (mystery method to be specific) within one year he owes me $100. He is so sure that he is right that he is willing to make a completely lopsided bet.

Not only does he have more to lose than I, but he fails to realize how broad the mystery method really is, or how long a year really is. People that cannot relate are so FUCKING stubborn in regards to pickup and this community that they wont even consult their own common sense.
