PUA Forum :: The infamous 'what do you do'

Quote:

You spend so much time in your own head about what things mean rather than just going with the flow of things that you make things harder on yourself.

While I do agree that this is mostly mental masturbation, it does matter to most women and deserves some thought; From personal experience, I'm pretty sure that, even though I make much more than the average working person, that my job title is a HUGE turn off for women. I am by trade a Registered Nurse. Every single time I've told a woman that I am an RN, it's almost always caused an immediate disinterest (verbal/body language/etc).

On top of that, on a dating app, I recently changed my education level to Master's degree (which I will have soon) and changed my job title to something less known, that doesn't actually make any more money than what I do now. I went from getting 1 match per month if that to getting like 1.5 per week. Most women have asked me what it is that I do. I have also had talks with mature female friends, and they admit that a male being an RN is a huge turn off. Not only that, there are studies that have shown certain titles are more enticing to women. One of them is teacher.

Moreover, because it is such a common topic in conversation as noted, I would be hard pressed to say that a woman that is willing to sleep with you would not be more inclined to do so if she knows you're educated and have a good job. The first thing many married women say about their spouses, when introducing them, is what they do for a living. I hear often "Oh he's a doctor", or "He's an biomedical engineer." Though yes, women screening you for a good job are more than likely thinking what's this guys LTR potential?

OP what do you do for work...?

We all know it as a shit test or an ioi. Something I've noticed... Girls who want to fuck have never asked me this and more SPECIFICALLY, they never press to ask what do you do for 'work' If she asks what you do for 'work' regardless of a CnF response etc., and she has just met you, would it be safe to say that she has already seen you as someone that is other than a quick role in the hay because she is screening you for provider/bf potential, therefore indicating that there is another precondition to her fucking you right away? Also, if you have not revealed this info after hooking up with her several times, does her continuing inquiring mean that she does not see you as a respectable sex-only provider, but is fishing for a reason to peg you as committment worthy? Please share insights. Any time I have been hard pressed to reveal what it is I do for 'work' it has been harder to bed these women.

If pressed I typically say "I help teach lonely men how to seduce women."

Sometimes they're just making conversation, sometimes they're fishing for information with an agenda of pigeon holing you.

You're over thinking this. This is a natural conversation topic among human beings. You can milk this pattern of interaction though to tease and banter with the girl until you have isolated her.

There's something that's not right about you when it comes to being normal and every post where you say that you try to talk to women it's harder for you to have sex with them. It's more likely that you are socially inept and that turns women off. You spend so much time in your own head about what things mean rather than just going with the flow of things that you make things harder on yourself.

I'm a retail store manager, but I always lie and never tell women what I Do For work. If they press for it I can tell that they won't fuck me based on my looks or game for the most part, so I allow them to know anything else they want but never my job title.
