After a long weekend of going out and pushing myself a little further than before, I am finally starting feel the cracks in my reality like never before. I’ve tried to bring a scientific edge to an art form, but these are some ideas I’ve been playing over in my head.
The seduction community has been around for a long time and, as in everything in life, there are a few extremes. Sides to the pendulum as we could call it. Anyone who has studied self-help knows that the key to everything is keeping it all in balance. You don’t want to be a cocky asshole guy to the extreme, just as much as you don’t want to be a nice guy chode. Each are on the sides of the extreme. Here are some thoughts I want to work into my game and where I think true mastery will be.
Seduction community version one:
For many years it was extremely routine based whether it be Internet game or Myspace game or real infield stuff. Everything was long elaborate Speed Seduction routines and heavily focused on NLP. Routines and routine stacks were king. Now with the greatly popularized community lines you could still do very well with your own personal routine stack. When I talked with Mystery about this a few years ago, before I was really getting into this area of my life, he expressed that the future of pick-up would be an individual routine stack. After going out solidly for 4 months I can see how this could be good and bad. Routines force your interaction into a box which is good when its working, but when it goes wrong what can you do? That’s why this one extreme I personally believe is incomplete.
Seduction community version two:
Lately there has been a huge shift going toward all-natural, state-based game. I think that state is a huge huge huge huge important factor. If you are in-state, you can make anything work, but the downfall to this is that at the point where I am at now I can get into state, but I can not always maintain it. Some nights I am on, some nights I am off. I think deep inner game and state based game is another side of the extreme pendulum. The downfalls that I’ve seen working with “natural” game (as the seduction community portrays it) is that if you’re off, you’re in trouble and if things get out of whack with the vibe you can run into trouble. Also there are clear times when you need something preplanned. Thus in my opinion now state based natural game is in itself a incomplete method.
Seduction community version Three:
Brining it all into balance.
From my experiences, my best nights come from a mix of the two. A third type, which is more a balance. When I have my really on nights and everything is working and clicking, I am using a mix of all natural state based game and routine based game. The vibe is insanely good and everything you say works perfectly, but when I hit a road block the routines come in and pick up the slag. They navigate around whatever problem or obstacle there is in the set and then I continue back into game that is not pre planned in anyway. I believe a big factor in making this third type work is that most people in the community have been studying routine based game for so long that they can bounce into the other extreme of “natural”, but the key for me seems to be in a strong mix of the two. Both are equally important and fill vital roles, but I believe this third type is the future answer and the most powerful.
