Yo guys,

Could someone give me some advice on text gaming, think this is my biggest sticking point.

I've got no problem in clubs/bars and picking up HBs but my text game sucks

Even a link would be appreciated

Cheers

im new here.. i too got a problem with text game..but i read a few post there are some very interesting qoute, jus search a few post u will find the answer.. but i learn text game can be a slow process and alot of freeze time needed..one interest tip use plenty of neg..keeps the convo running..

Some of my fav qoute to get her attention

for opening..
"hey..i know nobody has sent ur a msg yet..so dun fret here's one..How are u?"

if things get slow this will pick up the pace
"i seen my grandma reply msg before surely u r faster than that"

one guy posted once says be short n direct to the point. it kinda work for me.

Hey how we all doing?

I don't understand please realize that PUA is setting yourself aside from everyone else thus text game is useless as chode will always text rather than call.

You are ALPHA call, if she texts you call later, Once your phone game is good then when she is at work or in class your text game will be easy as you have already beaten the harder challenge.

YOU ARE AN INDIVIDUAL, YOU ARE ALPHA, NOT IN JUST IN MIND BUT IN BODY AND SOUL.

He’s routinely getting newbies and current members out sarging, pushing them into sets, given them suggestions and advice, replying to posts more often then anyone else. (Come out Wednesdays and you’ll see what I mean). Also, I have not once heard him making excuses about not going out and pussying out. If anyone else can show me this, I will automatically promote you to any status that you want on this board. (including admin).

Now .. I (and others) .. have tried a more sugar coated / feel good approach to getting guys to come out. Truth be told, it hasn’t worked anywhere close as well. I'm dissappointed that with all the free resources, and the cool guys that we have offering free advice, so few people actually make use of it, go out consistantly, and get better with women, instead of dabbling and keyboard jockeying."

"How did it start?Well, I dont know.I just feel the craving.I see the flesh and it smells fresh.And it's just there for the taking."

Let's.fuck"

"Scrutinize every word, memorize every line
I spit it once, refuel, reenergize, and rewind
I give sight to the blind, mind sight through the mind"

Well the way I start off is by using any opener that dosn't sound too far off, for example:

Me: Hey who sings that one song ...?
Her: blah blah blah

Then I come up with another topic to get a conversation started

Me: What are you doing this weekend?
Her: Blah blah blah
Me: That's lame, you should come with me to ... we'll have lots more fun.

I usually chat for about 15 mins tops. then say I gtg. To show that I'm a busy guy. Use DHV.

Hopefully this helpls some.

i like saint comments on stuff..he has positive critics. i will be tuning in for more comments.. theres a phrase u never know how good u are until some1 says "u Sux".

I feel texting has it's place, but as a general rule, calling her first demonstrates confidence. I judge each situation on it's merits though.

For example, I met this cute 20 year old girl 2 weeks ago. I established good rapport, k-closed and got her number (although her friend got pissed off me with for no reason. She convinced herself that, from her angle across the room, I was talking about her in a derogatory way. Totally false but I still had to put up with the ensuing bullshit that night).

This was on a Friday. I had a good weekend at this particular time and got a few numbers so I thought I'd experiment with a text message on the Sunday. I figured that calling on a Sunday wouldn't have been convenient (due to hangovers, visiting family, etc) I wrote in my text message the following:

"Hey, hope your friend appreciates that it was just a misunderstanding on Friday. She did her best to shoot me down though - she totally made fun of my cowboy choker! Haha! Gotta go now, I've got band practice tonight...but too tired . Take Care. David"

My attempt here is to DHV as much as possible. I acknowledged that her friend tried to make fun of me and that this didn't faze me. Having band practice as well helped with boosting my value. I also don't ask her questions in a text message this early on. She doesn't know me well at this stage. I don't want to create that impression whereby I want her to text me back and answer my questions. It will make her think I will be sitting by the phone for answer. Best to make fun statements instead.

Anyway she responded positively and I called her the next day. No reply. Not looking good. I wait an hour. No reply. Shit! Okay, how are we going to save this one? I write:

"OMG dude, your like a mouse! Difficult to get hold of! Don't worry, your Welsh accent is cute! I'd never make fun of it! . No worries. Anyway, you have given me an idea for the first line of a new song. It goes: "good moments pass and open the door for others". Works well with my guitar! Take care little mouse!"

She knows by now that I'm a musician in a band, so I wanted to exploit this to the fullest. So I DHV again with the guitar reference and actually show my artistic side by being inspired musically. This helps to infuse another layer of subtext (the first line of the song), make her realise she is missing out and it doesn't make me look needy. Notice the light negs also.

You may think my text message is far-fetched. But this text saved the day and she has agreed to meet up.

Texting can be a great back-up when your calls appear to be flaking.
