I know a lot of people aren't going to like this, hell some of you are either making or spending money teaching or learning how you should text and if that's for you I in no way feel any objections towards what your doing, you saw the reality and you adapted.

In my frame there's no reason for me to text, by entering MY reality you adapt to my reality. I don't speak to a woman over a text based form of communication, there's few benefits to texting with a big downside as far as I see it, but this is coming from a guy who's grown through a texting adolescence of upwards 3000 texts a month. In other words I live by the notion that I'm too cool to text now, I've grown past it and I'll let everybody else fight it out trying to win approval for a woman who feels the empowerment of all that stuff. It's not what you say but it's how you say it. I don't text anymore and it works for me, I don't even like the image in a girls head of me sitting down at home or out in the street dropping what I'm doing or staring into my screen texting while trying to avoid bumping into people. I made the switch and went retro and I call her ass when I have something to say and that's what's works for me. For me, I graduated and past that at the top of the class, she's gotta understand my value and nothing conveys the message more than refusing to adapt to her reality

Seems like a very immature attitude. Everyone should change for me. That isn't how the world works, people don't bend to your rules, while I am not a big fan of texting it is very necessary to do well in game. Sure if you are going to throw out the girls that don't care for texting then you are good but you better keep in mind that probably AT LEAST 60% of girls these days prefer text. So you are going to throw 3 out of 5 girls out the window because they won't pick up the phone.

Your attitude is that people need to adapt to me, that is something I suggest you change immediately. While it's cool to let girls know you aren't at their beck and call to sit there and just throw out that you refuse to text and they follow your rules, etc. that is just unrealistic and I'd say very very bad advice. Your a human adapt to your environment or to each person so that you can have higher batting average rather then just moving on from the girls who text.

Emailing, texting, instant messages, facebook messages, etc. are the weakest form of communication IMHO, weak because it doesn't allow you to transmit your message via voice, eye contact, gestures, etc. and that simply doesn't give you the chance to play your game, to be any different from any other guy, to reasonably separate yourself from any AFC.

But sometimes, especially in the beginning they're inevitable, so my principle is that I always try to use the most advanced form of communication with a HB that I have.
If I just have her on facebook I'll drop her a message there, if I have her phone number and time I'll call her, cause that gives you much more opportunities to play your game, and if I already dated her a few times and just want to talk to her I'll meet her again.....

What Rethnu said. Texting is probably the weakest form of communication. And while, when done creatively, it can work text-game-how-often-to-text-vt76859.html?highlight=, I suggest staying away from it.

If you #C her during day game, maybe a few initial texts will help her be less nervous. But if you have any more interaction with her, you should pick up the phone. I've actually started leaving short, cryptic voicemails, whenever girls don't answer. Eventually, they'll get curious enough to call back.

Another instance where I still use texts is if I have her wrapped up and just wanna set up another meet. Here's an example:

Keks: "sup sexy?"
HB: "not much beautiful, what are you up to?"
Keks: "wreaking havoc. bring yourself."
HB: "blah blah blah"
Keks: "party's on with or without you"
HB: comes out or suggests another time

Texting leaves you subject to interpretation, girls feel a full range of emotions throughout a day if your texting a girl while she's pissed off do you think she's reading that message in the funny and playful tone you intended?

That is the same with everything, pretty general statement. A person may think someone else is mad at a glance when in fact they are sad, because they are mad they assume someone else is mad as well. A person will often misinterpret the message based on their own emotions. A great example: Your friends say that girl is all about you, but you are scared you think she may have a crush on you but you are not convinced. The only difference? Perspective they see it emotion free.

I have joked with people at work, they were in a bad mood so they were offended. This is a part of life, if you are going to let miss communication stop you then that is your problem, but don't give bad advice. Missed communication is a part of life, with proper diplomacy miss communication can always be repaired but eliminating half of your potential dates because they won't accept a call is just ridiculous. Some of these guys are very new and don't get numbers often, you are going to get them to burn half these numbers, kind of shitty to do to a newbie.

I shy away from texting with some girls, and don't with other girls. Everything should be situational. This is one of the biggest problems with Pick Up we try and make these rules that are true of every person but that is so ridiculous, every person is different, make a judgment call per person. There should be guidelines but not rules.

That is the same as saying every girl who preens is attracted to the guy she is looking at, that is just terrible. There are several situations where the preen is simply a sign of the woman's insecurities, a part of her regular body language. Just like texting may be a part of her regular behavior, while phone calls may not be, you may be putting her outside of her comfort zone(and if it is too early you just burned a number). Everything is situational, each person is different and each deserves to be treated differently. Please please start doing this and your success rate will increase substantially.

Side Note: I do consider texting a cop out, I think you should most times try calling first, but once again I do not think that you should say always call, or always text. I think it is best to figure out what they prefer or how strong the attraction is so that you know which would be the preferred route.

this may be a generational thing, as in the young guys are used to doing everything electronically. I do text/internet but I must say that voice phone calls and face to face are the only things that have given me significant results so far.

I was in a very swank nightclub last night, and there were about 20 people standing by themselves on the edges of the club staring at their phones, it was weird. If those people had just talked to each other it would have been better in my view.

I can understand the perspective of not wanting to chat/email/text because none of that is ever going to be the same as a phone call. A phone call is not the same as face to face.

Actually, there's only one reality and we're all living in it. That reality is that phone calls are disruptive by their very nature. For that reason, most people including myself don't answer phone calls if we're in the middle of doing something. Most girls do the same - they let the call go to voicemail and follow up later. So you're not demonstrating anything besides a very random principle you've invented for yourself. At best, she'll think it's old-fashioned like her grandpa. At worst, she'll think you're a self-important prick. Either way, you don't gain anything.

Besides, extending your logic, phone calls are limited as well, since she can't see your face or smell your pheromones or observe your body language. So you should only ever talk to girls in person or not at all. If you want to arrange dates or hang-out sesions, send a note via carrier pigeon.

There's no harm in being flexible in this instance. If you expect people to bend to "your reality" on social conventions, expect to spend many lonely nights in front of your computer...
