Reddit reviews The Game: Penetrating the Secret Society of Pickup Artists

It's not an infallible rule book, but it will give you an idea of how to flirt and such. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B007MAXHUG/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&btkr=1

I'm telling you that you are completely misunderstanding (I think purposely) of what stuff like this is trying to do.

> And since it's aimed at guys that we already know are socially inexperienced, how are they going to know that that's not how it actually works?

That's the point dude. This type of stuff is for people to gain expereience and learn from their mistakes and failures. Otherwise they would never learn how to flirt with girls and would wind up being pissed off pathetic loners their whole life.

I've been there man. I was the "nice guy" before that put women on a pedastal and thought if I was just nice enough, then I would earn the girls love or attraction. And that type of thinking is just toxic for everyone involved.

It took reading books like No More Mr. Nice Guy and The Game to learn how to have healthy relationships with women where I was open about interest in the other girl.

And it obviously worked for me, because I used these techniques when I met my now current wife. She had no idea I was using these techniques until I told her about it down the road, and now we just laugh about it. She never thought I was being creepy and she didn't even realize I was using these techniques.

But, it took a lot of failures with other random girls that were awkward encounters at first until it became natural.

I've been married for about 3 years now and we have an amazing fulfilling and loving relationship.

I think you trying judge me on my short query I have asked this question just to clarify my options. I have been around dating community on the internet for a while. Is this book somehow related to this or this? I will read it if it has something different. At this point of my life I take women easily I have been through several girlfriends without any pains or issue. But right now I am more focused to handle my career.

It's these guys on the internet who give out advice about how to get girls interested in them. It was made famous by this book. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B007MAXHUG/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&btkr=1.

Even if it is a pick up artist gimick that he is doing, I wouldn't necessarily assume that he's fully immersed in it and using some elaborate system (though maybe he is). If you're a guy and you just google around for advice about dating you're bound to stumble across this stuff at some point. Could be some isolated piece of advice he stumbled upon. But in general if a guy is doing something that is both weird and deliberate on a date I would assume it's some weird piece of pick up artist advice.
