Hey guys,
Just a little curious and slightly confused. Imagine your in a social situation and your friend or some randomer is being an asshole. How would you/do you handle him or her? I've heard that by being alpha you would brush it off and not even take notice but I believe that you should stand up for yourself in some way or form.

Appreciate it guys,
AFCCoffee

laugh, and brush it off. take it as if he was just teasing you. subtly saying, i don't give a fuck if you're gonna be an asshole

I always just laugh it off as if he was making a joke and then carry on talking to people like nothing happened.
You get some interesting reactions from that

I am what i want to be.

All I ever say is "Your right." Some times I expand on that. I don't care about anything you say. "Your ugly", "Your right, but I do have pretty eyes". I laugh after that and my laugh is infectious.

Today Some girl said "is there something wrong with you?" Reply "Probably." She(a clerk at a shop) snickered gave me a eyes look up, head down, submissive smile. Three body language signs at once. She later came by to make 3-4 other appearance and did some preening and a boat load of other little signs, she also walked by a few times(sending more signs).

"Your right" is a powerful statement who doesn't like to hear that? When you tell them "Your right" it adds a little more sleekness, you generally look more charismatic.

I just roll with the punches. If you are comfortable enough to validate their insult, you are not only confident(their opinion of you doesn't matter), but you also completely disqualify the value of the insult. I guess what I am trying to say is accept it and thank them with style/humor/confidence.

Please don't say these lines seriously. These are off the top of my head

"Your weird" -You say that like it is a bad thing.
"Your crazy" -What value is there in enjoying reality?
"Your a pervert" -Don't act better than me, you have dirtier thoughts than me.(observe their body language)
"Your different"- Well I am better than you and I do know it.

You can rotate these statements or whatever. The point is to come back with a witty remark where you take the power of the statement away. Generally agreeing with them makes you look like the smoother more charismatic person in the conversation.

Yeah I usually use "your right" myself. I just love not giving them the satisfaction of an aggrevated reaction. My laugh is also like yours, it's so infectious, even more so right now - I have the cold Thank Thor it's monday and not the weekend.

That's really cool, I'm definitely going to work on this . It made me realize this is what I tend to do when I'm around my best friends, it feels natural. Somehow when I'm meeting new people I feel a bit more nervous and I feel off kilter, so I don't react as well. Thanks for pointing this out!

I'd try to make a joke about it and act as nothing happened, this way the guy will be like ''What the f** just happened'' and he will be the one looking like crazy.

Before I got into this pick up shit, I used to say shit to make myself feel like I wasn't whatever they called me. It made me sound like a pussy. Now, for example some girl I hadn't talked to in ages (and always knew I was a pussy before I got into this PUA shit, she's kind of a cunt) would say shit like, "So have you even kissed this girl you're with?" and I respond, "No, I'm scared of her, girls are scary" she goes with it trying to hit a nerve, "Yeah? I like how you said that like you're lieing but chances are it's the truth" then I said, "Yeah you're right, like I said I'm really scared of this girl." She just stopped in her tracks and moved onto something else. This is because I didn't try to get her approval and say some shit like, "WELL I HAVE KISSED HER OK!" Or something stupid.

In other situations, If someone is like, "HAHA, I like how you did that! You're gay bro" I come with, "Yeah, sometimes I feel like sucking cock, I just get that urge." Basically, I just don't give a fuck.

FOR THE MOST PART THOUGH, if it's something I just don't simply care to address in anyway, I ignore it and move the conversation to what I want it. If I'm in a COMICAL MOOD, I say shit like the shit above to stick with the vibe I'm currently in. Really, hold your don't give a fuck frame, others usually get the gist and don't care to say shit either. That's what's worked for me.

This is the way to roll. If you're confident with yourself, you're not going to give a fuck and you'll be one-upping them by not giving a fuck.

Step 1: Find an alpha male
Step 2: Insult him
Step 3: learn from response

if you have a friend that constantley does that he is 1. A leach (he's trying to succed with he target by riding on your game and amog-ing) and 2. AFC... so, since he's an AFC (natural at the best) use body positioning to lock him out of the convo before he ever gets in earshot. you will heavily rely on kino locks for this... be dismissive, when he starts to talk,interupt him and say something like:

"hey buddy, im kinda busy right now, is it k if I get back to you in a few minutes" (smile the whole time, you arent mad at him just busy)

then give him a dismissive pat (upper arm, shulder or chest) then turn back way from him. just let him tand there like a retard for a while if you want lol

key is when you issolate make ur it's just you and her... talk to your buddy beforehand and make sure he knows

Best of luk,

Women want a man who can protect them, but for that he must first be able to stand up for himself. They do not want a man who reacts to little things which do not require his attention while at the same time they want a man who knows when and how to take the appropriate action. Catching the drift? Take it easy and in the spirit of fun as long as the stuff thrown at you is light and not insulting. But once it starts to affect your image and people actually start treating you as an object of fun, that's when you have to stand up and ask the grade A asshole to shut the hell up. If you stay quiet and fake a smile in this situation, you'll be labeled as a coward who anyone can mess with, take it from me. It does not matter if you get shot down, what matters is that you have what it takes to stand up. As much as women might claim they dislike men who fight, they like men who are aggressive enough and can fight for themselves.
