Natural game essentially means not using openers and routines as crutches (I.E. practicing more dominant and masculine behaviors). Routines are fine. They can do quite a bit of work, but you'll notice that they fall flat quickly. It's good to have one or two ready when those awkward silences come about, but you should definitely not rely so heavily on them. It'll take some time but read a few books, watch a few movies, listen to a few albums, look at some paintings, etc. so that you'll have something to talk about in conversation.
Building rapport is easy once you wrap your head around it. Its basic goal is to show that you're on the same wavelength as your audience, both on a mental and a physical level. To accomplish the former, you just have to follow a fairly simple verbal tactic:
-Say two things of interest per ever one (involved) question that you ask. For example: "I really like your shoes. My sister had a pair of shoes like them. She lost them though when we went to go see Radiohead. Do you like Radiohead?"
For physical rapport, follow these instructions:
-Mirror their body language (how they stand), tone (serious versus funny, loud versus quiet, etc.), pace of speech (fast or slow), diction (their word choice), and breathing patterns.
Demonstrating higher value (DHV) can be difficult if you don't really understand what they are. A routine is generally meant to demonstrate higher value. But there are a few other things that also DHV:
- pre-selection – proving that other women want you
being a leader
being a protector of your family
Ability and willingness to emote (correct emotional filters are in place, so you respond (automatically, unconsciously) the right way to different emotional circumstances)
Belief in a greater cause – you are willing to devote to a greater cause in life, bigger than yourself.
wealth (perceived)
family background
body build
sense of humor
social intuitiveness and wit
ability to have fun and positive emotions (AKA vibe control)
understanding how to redirect social pressure
sense of style
willingness to walk away
having strong personal values and conviction beyond that of pick up
all of these DHVs relate to: a solid congruency to an cool inner core and unique personality.
Here are some things that a lot of guys also need to work on that you might need to brush up on:
