Pickup is picking up women. No matter how you do it, if being able to attract the women you want...then that's pickup. Easy. I've been in the pickup community before the mid 2000's and there wasn't a more limited definition back then...it's the same as it's always been.
Experience in pickup is being able to actually seduce women and being able to repeat the process.
Actually, my credibility here is verifiable. I have people here that can vouch for my success with women.
My problem with you that you are too critical of other ideas here and all you talk about is your wife and girls noticing you. Instead of telling everyone else why they are wrong and arguing everything you disagree with...give us where you are coming from and how you got to that point. If you only fucked 2 other girls and your wife in your entire lifetime...at least give us some foundation on your mentality and approach instead of shooting everyone else down.
For now I’m taking your supposed success at face value, no issues there.
On the other hand, I think I did provide where “I was coming from” when I mentioned how I preferred to do it (no matter how long ago that was). Maybe I didn’t do it in enough detail? I’ll try to elaborate the next time this topic comes up. Regardless, sometimes I’m going to point out and shoot down suggestions that I think are complete bullshit, with limited or extensive explanation, whether some people here like it or not. I do this for the benefit of people who are in total beginner stages and need a wider range of opinions on a topic.

That's like saying "I got a job so I should know a thing or two about interviewing". Shit, I just made an analogy. God dammit.
Anyway, it's invalid. Simply throwing the fact that you have one out there doesn't give you any credibility. For all everyone's concerned you could be working the night shift at McDonalds and be miserable doing it.
Credibility is earned. You know - just like in any other field, ever.
Just about nothing is verifiable on an internet forum. Seriously. That makes it pretty hard to earn any *real* credibility. I’m still betting that “HT…whatever” is a fake chick, for example. I like to focus more on ideas and interpretations of these ideas more than supposed ‘facts’ or what not about people here. Or help out with situational issues.

For the record, when I say pickup I am referring to cold approach pickup. I am talking about walking up to women you do not know with the intention of having sex with them.
Thanks for clarifying. This is exactly what I’m talking about. Different definitions for different people. I could put you all in a room, give you a piece of paper and pen, and I’d get almost all different responses.
With that being said, I’d never give anyone advice on “going up to women with the intention of having sex with them” because I never thought or operated like that.

Wow...is it really a point of contention that if you're a guy intending on meeting and dating women..you should practice meeting and dating women. I have no idea what this has to do with the definition of pickup. It's like isn't it common sense that doing something repeatedly improves your proficiency in that area?
Guys want to get good with women. But they shouldn't practice?
And auto...ok let's say you have asked women if they would fuck you and they said yes. I have no idea why you'd be married doing this lol. But let's say you have.A woman saying she would fuck you is different than her actually fuckibg you. It's different than actually seducing a woman into bed.it's different from actually being able to seduce her into bed consistently.There's a difference between being able to make a practice free throw and knowing how to make free throws during the actual game. How many threads are out there with guys who have chick's begging to fuck them and sending pics to him. Then when they meet...fumbles and girl disappears. I really can't believe that you think women telling you something malters. Getting glances..getting chick's to say whatever is not close to experience with women.
Good god, man, your attention is still killing you.
It’s not about practice vs. no practice. It’s about **healthy amounts** of practice. No overthinking or overdoing. Healthy. Amounts. Not excessive amounts. Not letting it get to your head and take over your life.
Are you displaying some thinly veiled misogyny? So what women say doesn’t matter now at all? I’m not suggesting I could sleep with ALL of them. I already told you this. Seriously, if you don’t get it, you don’t get it. I used to not get it. Now I do. I asked them because I was curious. You can never be good enough at reading these things. So I asked. That simple. After meeting them, chatting and establishing rapport and having personal conversations (not sexual) – if they were actually interested in something physical. They responded affirmatively with little hesitation. They knew I was married at that point. But they were comfortable enough with me to tell me that. You can discount that all you want. You just don’t get it. Period.

No one gets here without spending years following your "advice" first. I personally went over a decade without a date because I was waiting "to meet a woman while doing things I enjoy doing." That was even in my college days when my life consisted of a few athletic activities and the occasional party.
This is where I tell you that you had other issues to iron out before you could do it “my” way – but you already know that. In my defense, and this is an issues others face too – we simply don’t know about ALL the issues someone has when they ask for advice here.
