Thank god for Halloween ... I put FX blood on my real scars and fit in. But, 1 day out of 365 doesn't make for good practice. So, how do I work this angle? I ain't talking about cool looking scars, I'm talking about pimple burn type looking shit. Makes it difficult to open, control the frame, or whatever.

in order to do this you have to be crazy confident bro. I dont know where your inner game is yet but I d start with day game. Start going around openeing all sets and get 100% percent confident in yourself. Then once you inner game is right and you dont worry about it the hbs wont either.

Handicap yourself even further. Do something extreme.

Some things you can do (Go to a city you don't live in to do this):

> Dress up as shitty as possible, don't shave, shower, or brush your teeth, and pretend to be a homeless person. Beg for money for an entire day.

> Wear something ridiculous that you would normally never wear, like a tutu or a dildo strapped to your head and go around talking to people.

> Have a friend write something obscene on your forehead with a permanent marker and don't let him tell you what he wrote. Don't look in the mirror. Go around talking to people you don't know. At the end of the day, find out what's written on your forehead.

> Dress up as Mystery and sarge.

Doing these ridiculous things will make you realize that you don't actually have it that bad, and that the real challenge in pickup lies in your social skills rather than what you look like.

Don't just read this and nod your head; go out there and actually DO one of those things.

The best way to go about it would be to follow these steps.

First and foremost, how did you get those scars? (you got them fighting a shark, saving your ex-girlfriend from a mugger, battling a giant killer ninja)
Come up with a real good story as to where you got them from, don't go way over the top, but because there physically there, you have "proof" that the story your telling happened.

If you set them in a solid light, when her friends ask "what happened to him" on a day two. Your Target can reply " A guy was trying to rob his ex-girlfriend, and he stepped in to save the day" Your targets pier group will actually look up to you.

Finally, and this is a big one. Never blame a bad set on your scars. That is crucial, if you get into a negative state about them, you'll start to obsess, and it'll drag your game, and you, down.

hope that helps.

I never thought how a good story could come into play later for the target. That's some good insight. Thanks!

My story so far has been, I was trying to save people in a car accident, the windows blew and shards of glass flew into my face. I don't know how believable that is though (cause the scars are actually from acne, and they probably look it). Plus, I haven't really used that on adults or women (never really had the opportunity)--mostly children, cause they definitely will ask, in front of others no less.

I hear you. There are some people who are worst off then me and I feel like shit for complaining; not trying harder; bouncing back faster. Then there are those who have it better than me, but maybe one little wrong, and I feel pissed cause I'd rather trade what they have for mine.

Peeps, what about Online? It was suggested to try this since I can build rapport, w/o her having to see me yet. But, I know this can't last, she will have to see me eventually. And in some ways one might use this as an excuse not to go sarging in person.

Thus, one might say just do day game cause even with Online you start over when you first meet anyways, so might as well get the physicality over with.

I'm most relaxed, confident, humorous, witty, less self-conscience about my scars, when the target is not new to me anymore, for example, females at work, friends, co-rec soccer team, etc.
