I was wondering how many hours do you spend on average per week actually putting your PUA skills to use? Are you going out just to game? Gaming holistically? Are you actually practicing or what's the deal? Where should a beginner start?

No, don't listen to him.

Now that I live in a nightlife district and have set up a training plan, I'm looking at about 15 hours per week practicing.

As a beginning its always good to set up time to practice and learn, because it hasn't become apart of who you are yet. Theres no real set time though, its all about how much you want to grow and how soon. The more you put in the more you get out.

The thing is, once this becomes apart of you, you won't have to set out time to go meet women. You'll have an active life and just approach women wherever you go as you're doing your daily task.

Just because of the fact that you keep track of your hours is weird. It shouldn't be 'well today I am going to put in my 3 hours of sarging today'.

If you're living a cool and active lifestyle talking to girls should be happening spontaneously, not because you set aside a block of time to do it like it's your job.

No, that's just something guys made up because they wanted to sound cool. This is a hobby. It's a series of skills that you practice and develop. If any of us were naturally good and didn't need practice we would never have looked for this forum. If you want to get good at basketball, you set aside time to practice, you don't just dribble balls spontaneously.

Obviously, you don't want to NOT approach a girl because it isn't in a designated sarging hour. But to say you shouldn't actively set aside time to practice the basics is silly. That is the result of some mainstream attention to pickup portraying it as weird, and guys like you trying to make this something deeper than it is so you can turn to them and say "oh, I'm not weird, this is just my life, maaaaaaan."

The fact that you describe this stuff as something you have to think about actively just makes it all sound try-hard and fake. I’m married now, back in the day I joined the PUA community for a while so I could discuss more tricky girl-related situations and offer whatever advice I had based on my successes and failures. That was 8 years ago. You’ll have to define what “naturally good” is, but I certainly wasn’t a kiss-less virgin when I read Neil Strauss’s “The Game.” I “sarged” for 3 months, then stopped thinking about it “actively”, because the systems and material mostly turned out to be unproven, made up bullshit. Every guy trying to sell you advice was saying something different. Just the fact that I was putting myself out there was increasing my success. 6 months later I met the girl I’d marry. No “active gaming” or other weird non-sense involved.
The newbies need to figure out their life and get their shit together. Learn to dress/ groom right, get/stay in shape, then grow a pair and say “hi” to girls that they like in any and all situations where there are girls to say “hi” to. They need to go to places that they enjoy going to, then talk to women there. That means if they hate nightclubs (discotheques) – they should not go there and instead go to places that they like (maybe a cocktail bar or lounge). If they drink coffee, talk to girls at coffee shops. If they take the subway to work, talk to girls on the subway while waiting for a train. Planning days around meeting girls is pathetic.

OP – see my reply to DJ_Z as it is also directed at you.

You got married less than a year after reading any pickup stuff. Your opinion is completely invalid, and I wonder why you are even here aside from promoting bullshit.

Personally im sarging wherever i can but even though my looks attract girls, they seem to run as soon as i open my mouth lol.

First of all, we got married 4 years after we met. Not “within 1 year.” Secondly, you’re going to have to qualify just why my opinion is “completely invalid” – other than your wishful thinking.

Your opinion is invalid because you don't actually do any pickup, nor do you appear to have any desire to do so.

Why is planning days around meeting girls pathetic? Guys go to nightclubs (discotheques) with the purpose of meeting girls and girls go to nightclubs in order to meet guys. That's planning your evening around meeting girls. People go on singles cruises in order to meet people of the opposite sex...that's planning a vacation around meeting girls. Some people actually enjoy going out to meet girls. Why is it that you believe that your opinion on what other people do is so superior?

This whole say "hi" to girls shit isn't an efficient way to romantically attract women and the only thing it's useful for is to lower anxiety of meeting people in general. If you want to be good at attracting women, you have to be ready to follow through from beginning to end. Saying "hi" isn't a victory, it's just being social. Fuck being social...be the sexiest dude in the room. You may come across your physically, ideal woman and if you only are able to say "hi" and nothing else, you've lost.
