I think everyone needs to say this to themselves every once in awhile. I think I had this sticking point in my early days of pickup. Now, i just see if the girl is worth a small investment. Sometimes the girl is boring as fuck so I just don't bother. Other times she's good to go but things come up and I don't take it personally. Just the nature of the beast!


I think most of the post here are geared toward a 100% success rate. Men who don't pull as much finally get their first catch and want it to work out so bad that they don't realize the amount of time and energy they are wasting gaming one girl instead of gaming 10. It really is a numbers game. Once you do get skilled however, and in addition to improving yourself in all aspect of life, your number becomes lower and you will experience a nice success rate. It's like getting a raise for being great your job. It just comes with the territory.

There's a time and place to make it work. For those starting out, going for the 100% isn't necessary.

Great statement.

I come at this whole thing with the DILLIGAF mind set. Because...... I don't.

Well, if you only date few times in an year when you see obvious IOIs and call a 100 %...You aren't a PUA, you're just good looking or interesting enough so some women from time to time give you IOIs..

That being said I personally take PU more like a personal challenge and an opportunity to grow as a person rather than a skillset to bang a different women each time.

I am actually pretty romantic and I tend to go for oneitis, it's wrong from a PUA perspective, but it's what I like to do in my life.

I'm a rather busy and "deep" person that values connection over adventures.

I had more than 40+ women in 29 years and I tend to like women less and less (meaning that when I was 17 anything with 2 boobs would make me crazy, but now at 29 it's hard for me a woman I really like).

That being said, try to be congruent with what you want. If you're seeking a stable connection go for it, but jesus don't get settled at the first shot (unless you really feel something that you know is extremely rare).

And who cares about 100 % hitmark? When I'm in a "quantity streak" period, I very often approach women and try idiotic/strange stuff just to see how they work, I don't care about the outcome but I always come richer from it.

An example?

2 weeks ago I wanted to try weed before a date (first date with a friend of a friend). I knew she was a lot into me (her friend told me, she told me, she initiated, she invited, ecc) but I really wasn't (she was an HB6.5, not really my type). So I just smoked 2 joints before the date to see how would I act and how she would react.

During the date I also drunk 2 beers.

Result? When I tried to escalate she refused me.

Our mutual friend told me the day later she found me in a shitty and unlikeable condition.

What do I care? Nothing, but I learned that smoking or drinking too much is something I should avoid with anyone but my future wife, if I'll have or want one.

Remember, you're richer, as a person, if you open 400 sets and close with 100, than if you open 50 and close 50.

Is English your first language ? Out of curiosity. My post says don't go for the 100% mark.


Edit: I think you meant to add on to the post. My bad if this was the case Aqua.

I think the only people that go for 100% are those for which landing 100% of the girls translates in landing them both. In other words, scarcity.

It's my third, I still use to think in Italian and then write sentences in English.

Btw I agree on 100 % = scarcity + insecure.

It applied to me when I was in "abundance" back in the day. My ego got in the way, and couple that with the marketers that say "send the magic text" I thought I could convince any girl to be with me. Over time, I saw that this wasn't the case. I liked the challenge but it wasn't worth the time and effort in the end. Now, I just keep their numbers in my phone and improve my life and try later in the year. If I want to or even remember them by then.

They will see me doing good through snapchat and Facebook and who knows, it could workout.


In the meantime, date as many women as possible and have your pick of the litter. Nothing wrong with that.
