Women FAQ

 

Q: Where can I meet women?
A: Just about anywhere. Location is really not too
important. The obviously blatant pick up places like clubs
and bars will have more potentially available women but
that scene is also difficult to succeed in if you have no pick
up skills. When starting out, you can use those places as
practice. Think of it as a game where winning or losing
doesn't matter - it's the fun of seeing what responses you
get that's important. Anywhere you find a woman that
attracts you is a great opportunity to say something new,
different. Study the responses, adjust your responses from
past results and eventually you'll see that women can be
met anywhere - the trick is attracting them once you find
them.


Q: How do I approach women?
A: Quickly and without hesitation. The more you think
about what you want to say and how you want to say it, the
more likely it is that you'll discourage yourself from the
actual approach. You must act so quickly that you don't
have time to think. Say the first thing that comes to mind. If
nothing comes to mind say "Hi, I noticed something about
you..." Then pause and wait for her to say "What? What did
you notice?" (women are intensely curious when such a
comment is made to them). The few seconds it takes her to
get impatient and ask you what you noticed is probably
enough time for you to take a closer look at her and
actually find something to say. "I noticed you're halfway
through the book you're reading - what's it about?" or "I
noticed the deep tan you have - did you just come back
from a tropical vacation?" Whatever - anything that could
possibly lead to a continued conversation. The more
answers you're able to get out of her, the more questions
you end up being able to ask until eventually a full blown
conversation takes place and you get a better opportunity to
create rapport with her - a connection.


Q: How can I hide my nervousness around a woman? How can I fix my
shyness?
A: What makes you nervous is taking yourself too
seriously and thinking too much about what she thinks (or
will think) of you. Shyness can't be fixed or hidden - you
simply have to disregard the negative thoughts your mind is
telling you. Approaching women quickly, more often, and
without thinking about what you're going to say first will
strengthen your resolve over time and deminish those types
of thoughts running through your mind. Never approach a
woman thinking "I must absolutely make a good first
impression or she'll never..." Instead think, "I wonder what
she'll do when I tell her X, Y , or Z" and don't worry so
much that she might not respond the way you want - most
women won't. At least not until you've gained rapport and a
chance to lead the onversation (and her) in the direction
you want to go.


Q: How does height (or generally the way one looks, or how old one is)
influence success with women?
A: It doesn't influence success all that much. Frankly, the
only time it matters is if there are other guys attracting her
attention in the immediate vicinity who are
taller/younger/richer/etc. AND have a personality edge
over you. If you find yourself in those types of situations
too often, you need to improve your personality and
charisma or change your environment when finding women
to pick up.


Q: How can I build and improve my self-confidence and charm?
A: Start simple. Don't try everything you've learned all at
once. Approach many women. Say whatever comes to
mind. Study the responses. Carry it as far as you can go and
if it doesn't work out, find another woman and try again.
Over time, not only will you learn how to quickly gain
rapport with almost any woman, you'll aslo gradually gain
confidence, quick-thinking for immediate conversation
starters, and the ability to stretch "fluff talk" long enough to
elicit her values (her value words) which can then help you
lead the conversation. For example, if she says "I like
bright colors..." or "It's a really bright day out..." then you
can ask "What is it about bright, colorful things that you
like so much? She might respond "They remind me of my
youth - carefree times". Then you can lead the conversation
into things that associate you with memories of her youth,

and reinforce the idea that you are a carefree person.
Practice methods like this over and over with different
woment until it becomes part of your nature. You will then
have self-confidence and charm without ever thinking
about it.


Q: Do commercially sold pheromones work to help attract women?
A: Although pheromones have been scientifically proven to
affect mating actions in various creatures, there's been no
conclusive study done on humans. So, until that happens,
the answer is NO. The most potent attraction tool you can
ever use is your brain.


Q: What is wrong with me?
A: Nothing. Any doubt you have in yourself is insecurity
you are emanating to others. If you don't like yourself, how
do you expect others to like you? If you ever find yourself
thinking "What is wrong with me?", change the thought to
"I can't wait for her to find out what a great guy I am. It
will be a shame for her if she doesn't get the chance"


Q: When is the best time to hug, kiss, or shake hands after meeting a
woman?
A: It depends on the situation, but don't think of it as
"hugging, kissing, or shaking hands." Think of it as
basically physical touching, and do it whenever it could
come off as the most natural thing to do. For example,
when talking to a woman at a bar (which might be crowded
and noisy), lean in and talk very close into her ear while
touching the side of her arm or elbow. This type of
touching is also known as a "kinesthetic approach", kino
for short. You want to a women, soon after meeting her, to
feel comfortable (and possibly aroused) with this type of
touching from you. It displays to her that you are a sexual
being and are not afraid to move in close or make contact.
Don't treat touching like a business affair, treat it like subtle
animalistic human contact. Your hand stroking her hair,
touching her hand, arm around her shoulder, whispering in
her hear and making sure your lips brush against her lobes.
That sort of thing. Obviously not done when first running
into a woman on the street but over time with practice
you'll learn when the right time is.


Q: What does it mean when a woman says "I want a man who knows what
he wants and knows how to get it."?
A: ...when women say "I want a man who knows what he
wants and knows how to get it." she is actually saying: "I
want to be chased. When a man chases me, I feel better
about myself." It also means she's in control to a certain
degree, and although I would say that she THINKS she
wants to be in control, she really doesn't because if the man
knows what he wants, then she's abdicating responsibility
to a degree and subsuming her desires for his.


Q: Why don't women like "nice guys"? Why do they like "bad boys"?
A: Contrary to popular opinion, women do like nice guys.
What they don't like is guys who let women walk all over
them. They don't want a doormat and they don't want a
supplicating fool. Women walk all over nice guys because
nice guys let them do it. Women *want* to be treated like
ladies, with respect and adoration, but they don't know
what to do when they are treated that way. They are simply
not wired to expect this sort of treatment from a man who
could be a potential mate. It's not the type of behaviour that
arouses them. In fact, it has the opposite affect. But that
doesn't mean you need to be a "bad boy" or jerk to get what
you want, it just means that you have to show women that
you cannot be walked all over. It means you DON'T
supplicate yourself with a woman. Think of it like a reward
system. In order for you to do something nice for her, she
MUST first do something nice for you. Not the other way
around. For example, past posts from Nathan on ASF
outlined the following example to explain the reward
system:
You're at a club/bar/whatever and see an attractive woman
sitting/standing alone waiting to pick up her drink or
basically not doing anything. Move in and say "If you buy
me a drink, I'll let you kiss me." Sure, it doesn't work in all
scenarios, and doesn't work with all guys/women or
personality types but if you dissect the problem, you'll
notice a few key things you've portrayed to her in a rather
short comment:
- You're a man who " knows what he wants and knows how
to get it."
- You don't supplicate by asking to buy her a drink. Instead,
you suggest she buys YOU a drink.
- You're telling her that you'll "reward" her, but only if she

provides you with something you want.
- The "reward" is actually something *you* want but it
doesn't come off that way.
- You're fun and daring.
Once in a while, some woman will actually take you up on
the offer and not only do you turn the game around, but
other women at the club/bar/whetever will notice this
(without knowing what you said to her) and their own
interest will be enhanched, opening up more opportunities.
An average chump, on the other hand, will usually
awkwardly hang around the bar wand wait to find women
who they can offer to buy drinks FOR. Losers. AFCs.
Supplicators. "Nice guys." They're the first to get stepped
on, used, then ignored, and the last to get laid. These guys
will call getting laid "getting lucky" because that's what it
takes for them to sucessfully seduce a woman - luck.


Q: If I'm not supposed to be a "nice guy", do I have to be a jerk?
A: Not in the least. The nice guy / jerk spectrum is too wide
to describe the actual personality you should be displaying
to women. People only think "jerks" because jerks never
supplicate. But you don't have to be a jerk to avoid
supplication and you don't have to be obnoxious to get
what you want.


Q: How can I change my "nice guy" image?
A: What you want to do is learn the types of actions that
might label you an Average Frustrated Chump (AFC).
Then avoid doing those things. An example, don't bring a
woman flowers if you're just asking her to coffee. Don't ask
for her number before conveying personality and gaining
rapport - in fact, don't ask for her number at all directly. Let
her figure that out when you end a conversation and
indicate you have somewhere else to be ("I enjoyed our
conversation. I have to go now - what do you think we need
to do in order to continue this at another time?"). If you've
successfully attracted her, she'll whip out a paper/pen
because she'll WANT to give you her number. Don't
compliment her excessively when first meeting her. Don't
put her on a pedestal. Don't spend money or a lot of time on
a particular woman unless she's already reciprocated your
attempts at attention.
