 If your father talked to you about women, it was probably to
rehash stories from his glory days, that all began
with, When I was your age

If your pals talked about dating, it was probably locker room

bluster, full of exaggeration and tall tales about
their self-described prowess with women.

If your female friends consoled you about your social life, it was probably
empty platitudes about being yourself and how every woman wants
a nice guy while you watched them run off with the bad boy.

If mens magazines, television shows, and advice columns provided tips,

it was probably ridiculous oversimplifications about how you just
had to be confident.

This book is dedicated to all those people who love you and care about you.
But who nonetheless led you astray for years.

Because everything they told you about dating is wrong.

If you know anything about me, David D., you probably know this
much... Ive spent a lot of time thinking, learning, and teaching what it takes
to become insanely successful with women, dating, and relationships.

When I look back at that trip a journey that involved going from
lonely and dateless, to meeting and dating tons of mind-blowing women, to
the life-changing relationship of my dreams with an amazing Total-10
woman know what I came to value most?

It was the priceless opportunities that presented themselves along the

way to:

1. Learn what I didnt know from smart, tuned-in people who genuinely
shared my same goals and dreams.
2. Teach other men what I learned so that they didnt waste precious time
out of their lives suffering through the same frustrations, setbacks, and
failures that I did for so long.

This in mind today I couldnt be more excited about this opportunity

to introduce Byrons groundbreaking Attract And Seduce book it truly
fits the bill perfectly when it comes to all of the above.

From the moment that I began reading, I immediately recognized Byron

as a kindred spirit and an exceptionally gifted teacher with invaluable ideas -
thats how I know for a fact that this book will help light the path and speed
the journey toward your success with women as well.

From Byrons bedrock-solid observations about how a mans inner

beliefs, attitudes and mindsets make or break him with women to a
different game plan for grabbing any womans attention to laser-focused,
step-by-step techniques for communicating with women in all the right ways
to literally attract and seduce them its all here.

Which brings me to a personal note that you can file under near-and-
dear to my heart:

Id like to make special a shout-out to the concepts and instructions

Byron weaves throughout these pages on becoming the kind of confident,
fascinating, genuine man that high-quality women instantly respond to.
 As I learned how to become successful with women and in life from the
Masters (also known as the guys who get natural, effortless results) it
didnt take long for me to discover that creating this confident mindset is
what its really all about... the absolute Holy Grail when it came to turning
the ship and beginning to succeed with women.

In fact, I pretty much categorize my life into two eras - B.C. (before
confidence) and A.C. (you guessed it.)

In Attract And Seduce, Byron approaches this critical core subject

in innovative, interactive ways that arent just about getting results theyre
about changing your entire life through the tools you need to feel confident
and attractive around women at last.

To me, thats the whole ball-game... and a very big deal... because,
harsh reality is, failing to learn these skills is often the biggest tragedy well
endure in life as men.

If we continue to lack the ability to feel confident within ourselves and

then communicate that confidence to women if we dont learn how to
spark interest and attraction if we have no clue how to make women want
to be with us it seeps into and sabotages almost everything else in our
lives as well.

It casts a long shadow over everything we do. It makes us trudge

through life feeling like theres a weight on our shoulders, or like
somethings missing, or that theres something were hiding.

Our failure with women basically interferes with all of our hopes and
dreams and everything we want for the future.

Not good.

Thats why, today, I couldnt be more glad that youve added Attract
And Seduce to your personal set of tools for getting this part of your life
handled.

Byron hits it out of the park in these pages, and I know for a fact that
youll get a lot out of this.

So what are you waiting for?

 Chapter 2:
Attract & Seduce:
The Most Powerful Method of
Seduction in the World

"The secret of getting ahead is getting started."

- Mark Twain

Welcome to the beginning of the life thats waiting for you.

I have something I want to share with you. It's a powerful way to

improve your relationships, attract more lovers, and improve your overall
communication with everyone you meet. Once you learn it, you'll have
the skills to attract high-caliber women and gain power, love, and
friendship with anyone.

I'll introduce you to guys who've mastered the art of attraction and
seduction, so you can hear and learn from their stories. I can prove to you
that it works whether you're meeting women online, on dating apps, in a
bar or in a coffee shop, from London to Los Angeles to Hong Kong. It
will work everywhere in the world, with any type of woman you could
possibly meet.

The system is ancient; it's been around since the dawn of civilization.
For better or worse, it's changed the course of history.
It works for men and women, gay or straight.
It works in politics, business, and romance.
It has changed the world, and it can change your life.

So, what is it? What is this powerful system that can bring you love,
power, and respect?
 It's the carefully guarded and practically timeless art of attraction and
seduction.

More specifically, it's a system for understanding and mastering how

attraction and seduction works.

You may be thinking that the power to attract and seduce is

something some lucky guys are born with. I thought that too. Luckily, we
were both wrong.

Attraction and seduction is a skill that can absolutely be learned, and

it can absolutely be taught. I know because I've done both. I've had some
great teachers who taught it to me, and I, in turn, have taught it to
countless students.

It's a system used by freshman college students, A-list celebrities,

and everyone in-between. I've taught them all, and seen them use it in
person. And if you pay attention and keep reading, I promise you that
what you will learn can change your life for the better.

So lets talk about you.

If you're reading this, you've probably had at least one lover,

girlfriend, or wife in the past. Or maybe you're a virgin, and you crave
the experiences everyone else seems to have. In any case, you probably
want more out of your romantic life whether its to have some wild
nights, to find someone special, or simply to master the ability to walk up
to and have a great interaction with anyone you want.

Good news! You're about to learn a new model for attraction and
seduction. Something no one has taught you before. In short, it's a four-
step system that focuses on a very linear process of transforming from
stranger to soul mate.
 In this chapter, you're going to learn what those four steps are. As we
proceed, I'll go more in depth on how to recognize where you are in the
system and what to do.

Now, this is more than just a book. Its an interactive experience.

I want to make sure that you understand all the tips, tricks and
concepts perfectly. Which is why I have prepared videos that show you
how you do it, as well as cheat sheets that summarize important
information and the most up-to-date material.

All this complimentary training material comes along with this book.
You'll find the instructions to access it at the end of each chapter. I've
made sure that you have access to all the tools you'll need to learn the
model I'm presenting. The links will connect you with video, audio, and
texts that are bursting with tips and strategies for learning seduction.

This may all sound like too much. But its just enough. I love
teaching attraction and seduction. I love seeing my students faces when
a light bulb goes on in their heads because they just saw something
theyd been doing wrong their whole lives and are now going to fix it
forever. Or they suddenly understand why this is an art, and that they can
finally master it.

I love getting calls and emails from guys telling me that they've had
some crazy adventure with someone they previously felt was out of their
league. I love hearing about how this helped to strengthen a relationship,
or fixed a problem at work. I love it when a student falls in love and the
love is reciprocated. I just plain love this art form. It means the world to
me, and that's why I'm so excited to share it with you.

So, this book is not just another book about dating, flirting and
meeting women.
 It answers the questions that men have had about what women want
since the dawn of civilization. It contains simple and proven techniques
that allow you to hack into a woman's mind and attract her with a power
that you've always had, but never realized.

Whether you are looking for a girlfriend, or want to get out of the
"friend zone"; whether you want to get your ex back, or discover the
secrets behind one-night-stands, this "dating book for smart guys with a
dry spell" is a guide to mastering the art of attraction and seduction.

From the first moment you meet a woman's eyes, to starting a

conversation with her, to getting to know each other, to exciting nights in
the bedroom, to exotic adventures with the woman you love, I'll teach
you all things romantic, and it all works. Remember, when it comes to
attraction and seduction, its the small steps and simple changes that
produce huge results.

You will learn how to gain unstoppable confidence with the "Heroic
Mind Shaping Exercise" that helps overcome any anxiety with women
and also helps in other parts of your life. I'll also teach you how to easily
spot and reverse your anti-seductive and unattractive qualities and turn
them into "attraction magnets".

With this 4-step system, you'll learn how to approach and talk to
women in an authentic way while building attraction through your
seductive identity and without changing who you are as a person. I'll
show you how to use dating apps and websites to contact and attract
women without being ignored or rejected. You'll also learn how to
become the most interesting guy in the room and never run out of things
to say when youre in conversation with even the highest caliber women.

Later, we'll dive deep into my bulletproof technique to get a date

with a woman without worrying about her flaking. You'll learn
everything from the "First Kiss Technique to sweep a woman off her
feet, to making her swoon and wanting to take it to the next intimate
level. Then you'll learn how to navigate the Love Roadmap from
kissing to complete arousal.

Now, let me tell a bit about how I know all this, my own journey and
why you should learn from me.

I'm a natural introvert. In high school, when you think of a guy who's
good with people you wouldn't have thought of me. I was a goth kid. I
had rows to spikes up both arms, red contact lenses, and a wardrobe that
was all black. My social circle consisted of five guys who all played
Dungeons & Dragons together. One of us had a girlfriend, so we thought
of him as "the player".

To make things worse, I was super skinny, and had asthma so bad
that some nights I had to use a machine to pump medicine into my lungs.
Obviously, I was in no shape to be hitting on women or making powerful
connections.

My first year of college I met a guy who showed me what it meant to

be a seducer, and over the next few years, my life changed I got a
girlfriend, I had exciting romantic adventures, I had a social circle that
started growing and growing. I spent a lot of time writing about my
changes.

Eventually, the writing ended up in the hands of New York Times

best-selling author Neil Strauss. He called me up and hired me to teach
men (and women) to master the game at the one and only Stylelife
Academy. I've been working there now for ten years. I've traveled the
world teaching countless students the art of attraction and seduction an
art that I love.
 One of my favorite success stories is from a 45-year-old lawyer
who'd had a crush on a woman for months. He studied the system in this
book and within a few weeks, they were in a relationship. Another comes
from a 22-year-old college student who'd nearly finished college without
a single sexual partner: within a year his life had changed he'd had
several casual sexual partners, and even a threesome. One student used
the "Identity Storytelling" exercise to make his company several million
dollars, by telling just one story.

Think about it: Are you capable of becoming the kind of person
strangers would love to get to know? Are you capable of achieving the
romantic success you've always wished for? Are you capable of
harnessing the power to sway the minds of people you meet? Of course
you are.

All you need to know are the four steps that streamline the seductive
process. But, before we get to the four steps, I want to give you fair
warning...

After years of teaching, I've found that there are three devastating
reasons guys who study this system fail.

The first mistake is something we call "The Give-up Guy". He's the
one who quits before he even begins; the one who decides there's no way
it will work. Here's the deal: give this system and the material a chance. I
promise you'll see results. If it doesn't work fine. Email me at
byron@stylelife.com and I'll give you the full price back for this book.
Just make sure to try it first.

The second mistake is the "Looks, Power, and Fame Assumption".

The idea that you must have looks, money, and/or some sort of fame or
power to be attractive and intriguing to people. It's not true. It helps (I'll
get into how to use these traits if you have them later), but they're not
necessary.
 When I started learning this, I didn't own a car, I didn't have a job,
and I had no social circle or network to speak of. It's all about following
the system a tested, proven, and simple system. It's all about learning
what to do, and more importantly when to do it. The best part about
this whole system is: once you begin to see results, it gets easier and
easier.

The third mistake is "The Self-Defeater". You have to get out of your
own way. If you don't, you'll be stuck where you are forever. You have
to push yourself. Find motivation to move forward, take risks, and make
changes. Self-sabotaging behaviors are commonplace and disastrous.
Your mind wants you to follow the path of least resistance, because
it takes a lot of energy to do something new, and your mind wants to use
as little energy as possible. Self-motivated people are capable of making
it over that mental hump. They've trained themselves to do it.

Here's a technique to prevent you from becoming The Self-Defeater.

Every time you tell yourself, "I don't feel like trying this," get a piece of
paper and write down the reasons why. Then write a list of the things that
won't change if you don't try. Finally, write down a day and time you're
going to give whatever you're going to try a shot. Set an alarm on your
phone for that day. When the alarm goes off, go try out the techniques
we teach you here.

If you can just avoid these three pitfalls, you're going to do great!

 Chapter 3:
The Attract and Seduce 4-Step System

"You have to learn the rules of the game. And then you have to play
better than anyone else. " - Albert Einstein

So, here it is: The Four Step System of Attraction and Seduction.

It doesnt matter what kind of relationship youre looking for this

system will work. Ive had students whove participated in wild sexual
adventures, others whove made millions, and a few whove found the
woman of their dreams and settled down. All using the same set of
principles. Its a system that will take you from starting a conversation to
closing the deal.

The principles that govern this system are universal, which means
you can apply them to all kinds of seductions. Whether youre meeting a
woman in a bar or on an online date, the system will work. You just need
to get a grip on the principles they are universal, and wont change. Its
the techniques that will differ from situation to situation. Anyone
learning this art should experiment with different types of venues and
platforms for dating. The more experimentation you do and the more
feedback you get, the better youll get. That said, lets get started.

Prepare Yourself

Seduction is a journey of self-discovery. To share yourself, you have

to know yourself. Most people underestimate their potential; they decide
not to take risks, or put time into something that could really change their
lives, because they fear the insecurities theyll have to face on the
journey. Some guys are scared of success: what if this all works out and
they end up with someone whos out of their league?

To prepare yourself, sit down and reflect on what youre true

motivations are for reading this book, what you are looking for, and what
exactly you hope to get out of it. The best place to start is by looking at
what youre missing. Simply think about or write the answers to the
following questions down.

Why are you learning the art of attraction and seduction?

Are you looking for love? Sex? Companionship?
How do you think learning this will help you achieve that goal?
When you achieve this particular goal, how will things be
different?
How will people look at you?
How will you view yourself?
Are you prepared to put in the time to practice this art?
Are you prepared to make approaches and face rejection?
How will you deal with rejection when it comes?
What will you do to pull yourself back up when the going gets
tough?
What kind of women are you trying to attract into your life?
What kind of relationships are you looking for?

Start here, and answer any other questions that may come up while
youre sifting through your own mind. Once you have some answers you
can move on and start learning the system.

Do not skip this exercise, because it is crucial that you understand

who you are and what you want before you start. Keep that kind of focus
as you continue to move forward learning the art of seduction.
 If you want to learn to talk to people, then youll have to develop the
best, most seductive identity you can. Were going to go over that in
detail later, in the chapter on generating value with your life story.

Step #1: Open

This is the beginning. The place where you spark a conversation with
a woman or a group. Keep in mind that most women don't wander
around by themselves to be approached by you. So, the majority of your
approaches will be groups. This is also the step where most guys quit.

Im going to teach you the principle behind what to do when you

approach, and then provide a few techniques that you can use to start
conversations. My goal for you is pretty simple:

Learn to start a comfortable conversation with total strangers.

Learn what makes people uncomfortable when theyre approached.
Learn how to alleviate the fear of the approach. (Something we call
"Approach Anxiety".)

If you feel like its too much, dont worry were going to break it
down, and theres plenty of supporting videos you can watch by
following the instruction at the end of this chapter.

After practicing this material, youll have the confidence and the
skills to start conversations with almost anyone most importantly, the
kind of women you've always wanted to talk to. Ive had students
whove never cold approached anyone before. After a few weeks of
practicing the techniques I suggest in this chapter they were able to go to
a bar, point out someone they wanted to talk to and, at least, make a
conversation happen, if not more.

Step #2: Attract

 When youre in conversation, your goal is to build social value.
Social value is relative, and is based on how interesting you are to the
person or people youre talking to. What were going to work on in this
step is how you convey high social value in an authentic way. The goal is
to make yourself interesting to the specific group of people you are
speaking with. Heres the goal for the Attract section:

Learn to use your knowledge and showcase-able skills to build value.

Learn to tell stories that focus on preferences and experiences to
convey your identity.
Learn how to use active disinterest to create emotional spikes in your
seductions.

There are many ways to be interesting and authentic. Just about

anything you do or say can be a tool for building value; its all about
understanding how value is built and conveyed.

This is really the meat of the system: building social value. This is
one of the sections youre going to spend the most time refining. There
are quite a few pieces to it, but once youve practiced it, your social life
will shoot into the stratosphere. Once you learn how to build value,
youll get more dates, have more sex, meet who you want, and more.

Step #3: Connect

To romantically connect with a woman, you must tell her that youre
interested. At its core, this chapter is about timing. In attraction and
seduction there is a specific time when you must tell her that you are
interested. Most guys have terrible timing, and little understanding of
how to compliment someone effectively. In this chapter youll learn:

How to give a great compliment.

How to get the most impact out of a compliment.
The timing for a seductive compliment.
 When not to compliment someone.

Here is the problem with indicating your interest too early: Wanting
to tell a woman that youre interested in her feels very straightforward
and honest. How many guys try to pick up women by simply telling them
they have beautiful eyes? Too many.

Why do they do it? Because, it feels good to compliment her.

Unfortunately, if a person receives the same compliment too much, it
fades into the background, becoming a pattern thats no longer paid
attention to. Most attractive women have heard the same compliments
thousands of times. So if you are the next guy that tells her that she has
beautiful eyes, guess what she thinks? Yeah, another one of those... next.

By understanding the proper timing of a compliment within

seduction, youll learn how to break that pattern, and give compliments
that are truly felt and authentic.

The timing is key here. Pay attention to that. When you compliment
someone its always a good thing, but if you learn to compliment
someone with proper timing you can really make an impression, and
change the dynamics of an interaction.

Step #4: Seduce

This is the chapter where you'll learn about going for the kiss or
further. Where you learn how to set up the meeting or date. Where you
learn how to move a person or group of people from one location to
another. Theres one technique Im going to teach you that will help you
accomplish all of these goals and its called "seeding". In this chapter
youll learn:

How to properly seed a date or meeting.

How to "bounce" someone from one location to another.
 How to set up an intimate moment, and what to do if you misjudge
the moment.

And thats it those four steps will take you from approaching to a
second meet up. Following all this material is everything youre going to
need to know once youve learned these four basic steps. The goal is to
make you the total package a person that other people envy, and want
to get to know.

At the end of the book youll find interviews with guys who Ive
taught personally, and you can read about their experiences:

How they got to where they are. Youll hear from one guy who
maintains a healthy relationship with the girl he loves, while bringing
new women into his sex life in a healthy and honest way.

How they practiced this material. Youll hear from a former student,
whos now a coach. He went out every day, practiced, improved, and
even did stand-up comedy in an effort to learn this skill.

The hurdles they had to jump to achieve success. Learn how one
student went from having crippling approach anxiety to becoming a man
who can approach anyone.

What kind of success theyve all had, and how you can achieve your
goals. Each student Ive interviewed experienced more sex, a better
professional life, and a steady girlfriend. Different goals each one
achieved.

Its time to become the social superhero youve always wanted to be.
Its time for you to have choice when it comes to friends and lovers. Its
time to meet the people youve always wanted to meet. To have someone
youd only met moments ago say, Youre the most interesting person
Ive ever met.
 Welcome to having choice. Welcome to your new and improved
social life.

Welcome to Attract and Seduce!

 Chapter 4:
Seductive Psychology, Mindset, and Inner Game

"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the
strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them
better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose
face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who
errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort
without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the
deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends
himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph
of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while
daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid
souls who neither know victory nor defeat."
- Theodore Roosevelt

Seduction isnt about you. Its about the person youre seducing.
Great seducers can put themselves in the shoes of the people they want to
seduce. They can look at themselves from other peoples perspectives,
and make strategic judgments about what to do next in a social situation.
That's how Cleopatra was able to seduce Julius Caesar and Mark Antony.

One of the most important skills youre going to want to get familiar
with is to understand what other people think of you.

The Persona Exercise

This is all about seeing the way other people view you. To do this
youre going to want to take notes and collect data. You can do this with
anyone you already know. Ask them this one simple question: "If you
had to describe me to someone who had never met me what would you
say about me?" Then ask, "What have I done or said that makes you
describe me this way?"
 Ask as many people as you can these two questions, and try to find
out where the commonalities are. If everyone says youre a nice guy,
then youre probably a nice guy. If everyone says youre selfish, then
youre selfish. That's pretty simple, but necessary for the next step.

Now that you have this information what can you do with it? Well,
the first thing you can do is ask yourself: Is this how I want to come off
when I get to know people?

If youre satisfied with the answer, great! If youre not, then you
have to look deeper, and decide if you want to change these qualities,
and how youre going to change these qualities. Later on when we get
into being interesting and generating value with your life story we can
start to mold your identity into a more seductive version of itself.

Each of us are going to have different traits that we want to change;

its important early on to know what people think of you, so you can
work on developing a more seductive identity over time that is authentic
and powerful.

Introduction to Story and Routine Stacks

I grew up a huge fan of Kung-Fu movies. When I was a kid I used to

watch the characters do their forms and katas on screen and practice in
my living room. I thought martial arts were the clear path to
superpowers. I had no idea what the purpose of those katas or forms
were. I just thought they were awesome looking I still do. Years later,
when I started studying martial arts, in a school rather than my living
room, I found out what their purpose was.

In most traditional martial arts schools, katas or forms are collections

of choreographed techniques or movements. Each form or kata expresses
a number of principles through the techniques inherent in the form. They
may include footwork, specific punches or kicks, break-falls, a few even
include meditative pieces. Generally, the forms arent meant for combat.
Theyre meant to be practiced repeatedly, until you understand the
principles on an internal level. Theyre one piece of the martial arts
puzzle, but by no means everything.

Routine stacks are seductions version of katas or forms, with a few

slight differences.

A routine stack is a collection of material thats meant to help you

understand the principles of seduction. They consist of one or more
techniques for each phase of the seduction. If youre using a routine
stack to practice, then its important that:

You practice saying the material out loud, over and over again before
you use it. You want to make sure you know what youre saying.
This way, if the people youre going to be talking to become
confused, you can reiterate what youre saying more clearly.

You should memorize the material in order. There is a structure to

seduction. Know where your routines fit into the stack and memorize
that order.

You recognize that routine stacks are not your entire seduction,
theyre collections of techniques to practice. They can be used to fall
back on, but routine stacks cant be counted on to solve every
problem.

Theyre great tools for learning seduction, because they can give you
something to fall back on. If you dont know where you are in the
seduction, or you cant think of something to say a routine stack can
be a lifesaver, assuming you memorized the material.

When you know where youre seductions going, it makes the chaos
of your initial interactions more clear, which can come off as confidence,
as long as youre not pushy about the material. Now, let me show you the
structure of a routine stack. In order to build one, the first thing you must
know is the phases of interaction. For us, the phases are: Open, Attract,
Connect, Seduce. You should make sure you have routines for all of the
following:

At least one opener, no more than two.

Demonstrations of Higher Value, Games, Bar bets, etc.
Identity Stories
A technique for showing Active Disinterest.
A technique for showing Active Interest.
Seed for a date
Seed for a bounce

You will learn how to build your very own stack later in this book.
Once you have chosen your stories and routines, they should all be well
memorized and practiced for delivery, body language, tonality, and
volume dynamics.

And remember one of Murphys Laws of combat: no plan survives

first contact with the enemy. Meaning, its a routine stack is a stratagem,
but its not the whole seduction. In the field things will change. Be
prepared maneuver when curveballs are thrown at you.

Conquering Approach Anxiety

Approach anxiety is the negative voice in your head telling you not
to approach it keeps you from walking towards a woman. The result is
excuse after excuse for not trying.

Why is Approaching Women so Hard?

Lets start off with the first part: Why do you have such a hard time
approaching women? As with most topics related to seduction, there are
as many different answers as there are men in the Game. However, some
of the broader reasons that approaching women can be difficult include:

Personal Experience: Weve all had experiences approaching

women where we felt hurt and humiliated. Unfortunately, our brains
are hard wired to remember these more than the times where things
went swimmingly well. These past experiences hold you back from
approaching in the future.

Lack of Experience: Conversely, theres the lack of experience.

You dont approach women much, so you think its a huge deal and
that it will inevitably end in disaster. Youve built things up in your
head so much that the fantasy of what might go wrong is preventing
you from getting the experience you need to make things go right.

Lack of Story and Routine Stack: You dont feel like you have
anything good to say, because you havent done the homework on
your stack. This is one of the easiest things to fix, as its just about
putting the time in on what youre going to say. Remember that a lot
of Game takes place before you even head out for the night.

Pedestalization: You see a woman who you are overwhelmingly

attracted to and you think you cant approach her because shes "out
of your league". Apparently you havent seen Style standing next to
his wife. A big part of what we teach you in Stylelife Academy boils
down to this: Looks might matter, but not as much as you think they
do, and anyway, you can overcome your "attraction deficit."

When it comes right down to it, theres only one answer to approach
anxiety: Its approaching women over and over again, honing your
approach so that it becomes better over time. This will not only build a
bank of positive experiences, it will also help alleviate approach anxiety.
 Now that we know what underpins your anxiety, lets talk about a
few common problems men encounter when approaching women.

What Youre Doing Wrong When You Approach Women

So what are you doing wrong? Thats what you want to know, right?
What can you be doing better so that you can build the types of positive
experiences that are going to make approaching women that much easier
with every approach?

Youre Too Serious: Coming up to a woman and being very serious

at first is a recipe for disaster. It makes things awkward and tense.
Instead, opt for a lighter approach; one that will have her laughing,
smiling and wondering who you are and what youre about.

You Cant Handle a Challenge: A lot of guys blow it the second

their stack goes off course. She throws a curveball your way and you
lose it; Thats not an attractive reaction. Instead of bailing at the first
sign of trouble, learn how to weather the storm.

Youre Too Needy: On the other hand, you might be trying too hard
to impress her, either by being entertaining or by trying to
demonstrate higher value in incorrect ways or with bad timing. This
comes across as needy, and neediness is kryptonite when it comes to
seduction.

Youre Paying for her Time: Its fine to buy someone a drink or
dinner, just make sure youre not purchasing their time. If that person
is sticking around for free stuff, then youre paying for their time. If
theyre sticking around because theyre enjoying their time with you,
and you want to buy them something for being awesome go for it.
Also, dont be a cheapskate, its just as bad as paying for someones
time.
 Youre Not Going Out Enough: Guess what, guys? Going out once
a month isnt going to cut it. Sure, youve got a life to lead. But try
and head out at least a couple of times a week and practice what
youre learning. Id argue that having more than a week between the
last approach of one night and the first of the next is going to be a
huge setback in terms of your comfort level.

You Make Excuses to Not Approach: Theres always going to be a

reason to not approach. However, the more you do it, the better
youre going to get at it. Any time you hear that little voice inside
your head telling you why you shouldnt approach, tell it to shut up
and approach immediately.

Having approach anxiety isn't the difference between a regular man

and a confident man. The real difference is that confident men
experience this anxiety and push past it.

Here is a thought experiment: Would this fear still exist if you were
100% sure when you approached that the woman would be friendly,
want to talk to you, or even be interested in you? In other words, if there
were no risk, you'd approach her, wouldn't you?

Ask yourself: What's the lasting result of being rejected or

embarrassed?

Mostly, just a bad memory; a reminder that you need more practice.

The biggest mistake is being 'too shy to try'. As Wayne Greztky said,

"You miss 100% of the shots you don't take."

Your potential gain is significant! The best case is she likes you, you
get her number and you go on a date. No matter what, you learn
something from talking to her. You apply that knowledge next time. You
get better. The risk versus reward for approaching a woman is in your
favor. Before you approach, you'll feel your anxiety, but... this time say
to yourself, "It's no big deal. I can handle this."

Feel your fear. Recognize it. Put it to the side in your mind and go!
You've nothing to lose and everything to gain.

One very common question that my students ask me is, "When did
your approach anxiety go away?" The true answer is, it never does. It
often lessens over time, but it will always be there to a degree. Approach
anxiety is totally normal.

The good news is even the shyest guys can alleviate their approach
anxiety when they really try. You can too. Everyone can. So, when
you're out there practicing, here are some techniques you can use to
make sure the anxiety doesn't stop you from opening:

Technique 1: "It's like ripping off a Band-Aid."

If you think about approach anxiety too much and try pulling it off
slowly, youll end up making it worse than it has to be. You just have to
rip it off; meaning you just have to make the approach.

Note that the first set of the day is always the hardest, just try to
power through it. Once youve made the first approach, the rest will be
easier. You're stronger than you think.

Remember, the only reason youre anxious is because you want to

talk to those people and youre worried about what theyll think of you.
Take a risk, and see what happens.

Technique 2: "Micro-stepping"
 If powering through doesn't work, then try slowing down and
breaking the approach into small pieces. The micro-stepping technique is
a little harder, but it never fails if you stay honest, and focus.

When your anxiety gets so high that it's paralyzing you, it means that
you've given your mind and body too difficult a challenge. Try breaking
the task down into smaller pieces.

For example, "I'm going to talk to that really attractive woman," may
be way too much for you. So break the approach down into a few very
small, very not scary steps.

Start like this: "Im going to walk in her direction."

Now that may sound ridiculous, like it barely relates to talking to the
woman, but thats the point. Youre using small steps that dont induce
anxiety to help you build momentum. Once youre moving in her
direction, set another goal for yourself, "Once Im standing near her, Im
going to say, hey, quick question." If you can utter those words, youve
gone past the point of no return. It would be more awkward to leave
without asking the question than it would be to ask it and open the group
up.

By taking it one small step at a time, you end up in conversation. The

anxiety is likely surging through your body at this point, but it didn't stop
you from getting to where you needed to be. Use it. Let it be a little extra
energy to give excitement behind the interaction.

Whats great about this exercise is not only how effective it is, but
that it works whenever you have to do something that induces anxiety.
Try using it when you have to go for a kiss, or ask a girl out on a date.
Small steps will lead you to success.
 The Heroic Mind Shaping Exercise: Confidence Building

Have you ever watched a movie and pictured yourself in the

character's shoes? Imagine if you could take on the frame of one of your
favorite heroes. This exercise will allow you to spot the positive traits in
others, and help you develop them within yourself.

To do this exercise you need the steps listed below, combined with
an exclusive Attract and Seduce audio lesson, which you can get by
following the link at the end of this chapter.

1. Write down a list of characters with qualities you would like to

incorporate into your frame. For you, that might be James Bond,
Alexander the Great, Casanova, or any other person (real or
fictional) whom you admire.

2. Choose the character on this list that you can most easily visualize in
detail.

3. Choose a form of media that you can best experience this character
with. This could be a movie, a history channel presentation, a book, a
series of magazine articles, or anything else you feel would be
beneficial.

4. Feel free to combine a few forms as well. Do whatever it takes for

you to best understand the character to the fullest degree.

5. Pay attention to how this character walks into a room, the micro
expressions on his face, the way he talks and portrays confidence. If
there is a specific scene in a movie or book that you believe best
portrays this character, watch or read it several times.

6. Once you have done all this, sit down in a quiet room and listen to
the Heroic Mind Shaping Exercise audio file, which you can find
by clicking on the link at the end of this chapter.
 Rejection and Transforming Your Critical Seductive Mind

Seduction can be a difficult art to learn, because training requires we

fail in front of the people were interested in getting to know. These
rejections can send us spiraling into self-doubt; causing us to quit
practicing. We keep hearing criticisms of ourselves like "you suck" over
and over. As students we know criticism is important, it helps us get
better, but this inner-wingman telling us that we suck hes of no use to
anyone. Heres one way you can train yourself to transform him from a
bad inner-wingman to a helpful one.

When it comes to practice, dont accept criticism from yourself that

you wouldnt accept from a good wingman. A good wingman would
never tell you that you suck or that youll never be good with women,
and hopefully you wouldnt tolerate that kind of worthless criticism.
If your wingman told you that you should approach from an angle rather
than walking up directly, youd more than likely take that advice,
because its helpful. What theyre telling you will make you a better
seducer, and thats the goal.

When it comes to self-criticism, you need to recognize that same

difference. Telling yourself that you suck wont help you, but giving
yourself specific advice will. My suggestion is to carry a note card, and
every time you tell yourself, "I suck" or "Ill never get the girl" or "Im
unattractive" youre going to take out the note card. On it youre going to
write down a helpful tip for yourself; one or more things you can do to
improve your seduction. You can be harsh, pointing out your own
seductive flaws, but make sure that youre writing down ideas you can
test to fix the problem. The idea here is to train yourself to replace
worthless criticisms with helpful ones and quiet down that terrible
wingman in your head.

 Chapter 5:
Top 12 Reasons Everyone Should Study
Attraction and Seduction

"The most amazing thing for me is that every single person who sees
a movie, not necessarily one of my movies, brings a whole set of unique
experiences. Now, through careful manipulation and good storytelling,
you can get everybody to clap at the same time, to hopefully laugh at the
same time, and to be afraid at the same time."
- Steven Spielberg

"We know what we are, but know not what we may be."
- William Shakespeare

Reason #1
Studying Attraction and Seduction will help you to influence others.

To understand attraction and seduction, you must understand desire.

Desire is the root of seductions power. Learning to seduce someone
means leading their imagination to learn about their own desires. This is
what were going to study: How to fulfill desires with our words, our
looks, and our reputations.

If you understand seduction, you'll have a better grasp on the world

around you. You'll understand why you make the decisions you make
and have better insight as to why others make the decisions they make.
You'll understand how the world, politicians, and advertisements
influence you. Youll learn what makes you attracted to the people you're
attracted to. Seduction is a skill with a world of benefits.

Reason #2
Studying attraction and seduction will open up new opportunities.
 Many of us run into opportunity after opportunity that we miss out
on. Sometimes it's just because we didn't know there was an opportunity
in the first place. I have met so many people who've had crushes on
friends or co-workers who felt like the deck was stacked against, and so
they never made a move. They ended up as "just friends" and find out
later that the other person felt the same way, and had either one of them
made a move, they might be together. A tragedy of epic proportions.

Attraction and seduction can give you the awareness to see these
kinds of opportunities; to understand when the deck is truly stacked
against you and when you're the one in control.

Reason #3
Studying attraction and seduction will help you get to know yourself
better.

A side effect of studying attraction and seduction is self-

understanding. To be a great student of attraction and seduction you must
learn to put yourself in other peoples shoes, to see the world from a
variety of other perspectives. You have to look at yourself through their
eyes and ask if what you're doing is seductive to them.

Reason #4
Studying attraction and seduction will improve your romantic, dating
and sex life, expand your social circles, and grow your network.

While studying attraction and seduction you're going to make

friends. It's going to happen. To practice you need to get out there and
meet people, and as you'll learn when we get deeper into the system the
first step is learning to make people comfortable with you, and the
second is to offer value. Doing this will make you friends.

Put yourself in a woman's shoes: a guy walks up to you, he is very

comfortable to be around, he has great stories, an interesting personality,
and helped make the interaction more enjoyable. Would you want this
guy in your social circle? Of course.

Reason #5
Studying attraction and seduction will bring more adventure into
your life.

People who study attraction and seduction have a great

understanding of the world around them, because the art form requires it.
The more you know about the world around you the more conversations
you'll be part of, and even better, the more conversations you'll be able to
lead. This means getting to know your city, getting to know your
country, getting to know the culture around you, and discovering as
much as you can about the world.

Reason #6
Studying attraction and seduction will give you choice.

Imagine seeing a woman youre interested in talking to at a bar, in

a nightclub, on the street, or anywhere else. Now imagine you could
walk right up to her and start a conversation that leads to a romantic
adventure. With practice, you can have the ability to choose who youd
like to date, rather than hoping for the best.

Reason #7
Studying attraction and seduction will give you a new perspective.

To be a great seducer you have to be able to see yourself from other

peoples perspectives; you need to understand how others view you, so
that you can make strategic decisions about which pieces of identity to
share. By paying attention to how other people think and feel, youll start
to open up your mind to why others do what they do and that can
change your life in more ways than I can possibly contain in this short
section.
 Reason #8
Studying Attraction and Seduction will expand your horizons.

The more you know about the world, the more conversations you can
be part of, and, even better, the more conversations you can lead. All the
guys I know who study seduction are ravenous learners. They consume
information faster than anyone else I know.

If you study attraction and seduction, there will be a point where

youll come to realize that youve become more interested in absorbing
new information. Its a great moment.

Reason #9
Studying attraction and seduction will make you more confident.

Ask most people what it takes to seduce another person and theyll
almost invariably say, "confidence". For the most part, theyre right,
confidence is a big part of it, but you cant just be confident. You have to
cultivate confidence through small successes. By practicing the
techniques, and learning the principles, youll start to see success on a
small level, and over time those successes will stack, giving you the
confidence to be a great seducer.

Reason #10
Studying attraction and seduction will transform you into your best
self.

The combination of self-awareness and social-awareness that comes

from studying attraction and seduction will make communication easier
and more effective for you. The confidence youll get from having put in
the blood, sweat, and tears it takes to learn this skill will give you
confidence in all other areas of your life. Youll pick up new skills, go on
new adventures, and have a legion of new friends, and as many lovers as
you could want. Youll be a new person; the best person you can be.

Reason #11
By studying attraction and seduction, youll make more money.

As weve mentioned before, seduction is not all about romance. Its

part of business too. Becoming a better seducer means becoming better at
communication. The information you gain from studying attraction and
seduction will allow you to think steps ahead of others and be more
strategic. It will also help you navigate the complex social dynamics that
exist in the business world. As you practice, youll find that making
deals, getting meetings, and eventually making more money will come
easier, because youll be more aware of peoples needs and desires.

Reason #12
By studying attraction and seduction, youll have more sex.

Seduction for most people is about sex, romance and relationships.

Its the number one goal for most of my students. If you put in the time
to learn this skill, not only will you end up having more sex, it will also
be with the types of women you desire, in the kinds of relationships that
you want to have.

How to Apply the
Attract and Seduce 4-Step System

"The key to growth is the introduction of higher dimensions of

consciousness into our awareness."
- Lao Tzu

Way before I started teaching seduction, I studied martial arts. My

teacher was awesome a guy who could walk into any school of martial
arts, watch them move, and apply their techniques to himself. He was
never shy about how he did it. The key was in his understanding of two
particular words. Hearing the two words over and over again, and
understanding their meaning, significantly changed my life. Here are the
two words:

Principle
Technique

So, what's the difference? Why are these two words so important?
Well, if you understand their importance and meaning in the context of
learning an art form, they make learning anything much easier.

A principle is universal. That means a principle of attraction and

seduction holds true no matter who's doing the attracting and seducing or
what realm of seduction you're playing in: Business, Politics, or
Romance.

For example, if the principle of starting a conversation is "make the

person or group comfortable" then that holds true whether you're a
woman seducing a man, or a man seducing a woman. It holds true in
romantic seductions, business seductions, and political seductions. The
principle always remains the same; techniques however, differ from
situation to situation.

In martial arts, there's no one punch that wins all fights. In seduction,
there's no one technique for making friends with everyone, or getting the
woman of your dreams into bed. Techniques are expressions of their
respective principles, and are meant to be used for specific times and
places.

The key in martial arts and seduction is the same: You practice
techniques to gain better understanding of the underlying principles. That
means if you want to learn attraction and seduction, practice the
techniques, but always keep the principles in mind. You may
intellectually understand the principle, but thats not the same as
experiencing the principle. Techniques help you learn the principles
through experience. Thats why you practice them.

So, later on when I teach you about starting conversations, I'm going
to teach you the principle and then some techniques. The techniques I
offer in this book and online are foolproof for very particular situations.
Theyve been thoroughly tested and are great for you to practice.

How to Practice Attraction and Seduction Techniques:

Attraction and seduction is a skill set like any other, meaning it

requires practice. This book has all the lessons for you to learn the skill,
but you're going to have to put the time in to practice it. Check out the
instructional videos you'll find a link to at the end of every chapter. I
even have a practice schedule up for you, if you want to see what a good
week of practice is like.
 The World is Your Dojo:

Unlike martial arts, there are no physical schools for learning

attraction and seduction. We don't have dojos or playing fields to practice
on. But we still have a classroom of sorts. Every place you choose to
practice, whether it be a nightclub, a coffee shop, a shopping mall, or the
beach is your classroom. Treat it as such, when you practice:

Don't get drunk.

Have a study plan.
Do your homework.
Treat the place with respect.
Plan regular hours to practice.

For years I've been hearing the same thing about practice. "Doing all
this new stuff makes me feel weird around my friends." Here's a
suggestion: Don't practice around your friends.

Think of it like this: when you go to a sport practice, you don't bring
all your friends who aren't interested in the sport to practice with you. It
would be weird if they were there, and they probably wouldn't have a
good time. You have to think of this art just like practicing any other;
only practice with other people who are interested in learning this art
form. If no one else is interested, practice on your own.

5 Things A New Student Can Do To Prepare for Their Seduction

Education

I imagine that if youre reading this youre ready to put a whole lot
of energy into the art form. Thats great! Here are a few ideas for new
students to help you before you even start:

1. Set time aside: This is going to be the most important step for any
newbie. Set time aside on a calendar that you know will be solely used to
practice whatever material youre learning. I suggest, at minimum, one
day a week, for three hours. For guys practicing in bars and clubs, do it
stone cold sober.

2. Practice material: Find material you like and practice it. This is
vital in the early stages. You need something solid to work on. Dont just
jump into sets with people doing the same old thing youve always done.
I suggest an opinion opener like Cashmere Sweater or Drunk-I-Love-
You to start. Practice something new, something that takes you out of
your comfort zone. As our coach Jonny Cruz says, "Get uncomfortable."

3. If you need a push, buy one: There are two ways you can do this.
The first is to go out with a friend, hand him a $200 bill, and have him
return $20 for every approach you make. The second is to take a
bootcamp. I suggest the Stylelife Bootcamps, because I teach for
Stylelife and because our bootcamps are awesome. Sometimes, you just
need a kick in the ass. Stylelife is here to give you that kick in the ass,
possibly a few.

4. Read and write more: Youre going to want to improve your

verbal capacity; reading and writing are the best way to do that. So, pick
up at least one book a month and read it. Get in a writing habit, because
youre going to have to write field reports: detailed descriptions of what
happens each night you practice. It is truly rare to see a student get good
at this without writing things down.

5. Get a wingman and practice with a friend: Many of my

students like to go out and practice in pairs, as wingmen. It can be fun
and helpful to have a friend around. Heres how you can make the most
of practicing with a friend:

Pick your practice - Decide what youre going out to practice. It

should be something specific, like an opener or a routine. Before you
 go out, make sure you both know what youre going to be working
on and make a plan.

Know your material - Before you go out, make sure you understand
what kinds of routines, openers, and stories you each like to tell. Let
your partner know where youre at in your practice. Are you working
on opening? Are you working on Seeding Dates? Are you working
on building value? You and your friend should be clear on what you
know and what youre practicing.

Reward Motivation - This is a technique to help motivate you when

youre out with a friend. Give your friend $100 and for each
approach you make, he gives you back $20. Lets say you have three
hours to approach five groups of people or individual women or he
keeps the remaining money.

Approach Alone - When making approaches, one guy should walk

up and then the wing should follow once the first person has started
conversation. Two guys walking up to a group together makes it
more obvious that youre there to hit on them, and our goal is to be
subtle. So, walk up alone, then have your friend approach once
youve progressed from the opener to conversation.

Secret Codes - Sometimes youre going to want to communicate

with your wingman without saying something out-loud. By the way,
many women are masters of communicating in code with their
friends on a girl's night out.

I suggest creating a code that you can use to communicate simple

messages. Heres an example of a code I used to use when my friend
approached:
 If I point with one finger when my friend approaches, it means thats
the woman Im interested in. This lets him know to steer clear of her,
while helping to build comfort with her friends.
If I point with two fingers, it means that I cant remember the
persons name. Its his cue to introduce himself to that person, and
ask their name.
If I point with three fingers it means, Id like him to help me politely
eject from this group. There are some conversations you dont want
to be in, and sometimes it can be tough to leave. Having a friend
come over and say, Hey, you need to close out your tab, or
something similar can allow you to leave without being rude.

Debrief Afterwards - This is probably the most important part of

working with a friend. Either when you get home, or the next day, sit
down with your friend and go over what you did wrong and what you did
right. Start to plan out your next practice session based on your debrief
sessions.

Respect Your Wingman Friend - Some guys like to tease each

other relentlessly. This is great for when youre hanging out together,
but not for attraction and seduction. When you and your friend are in a
group together, you should always be propping each other up, never
tearing each other down. In addition, dont let other people tear your
partner down. Stand up for him and make sure he stands up for you.
Youre in it together.

One of the most powerful symbols that you're an interesting person is

that you have interesting people around you. People who are not only fun
to be around, but people who are just as interesting as you are.
Picture this: You're out at a bar or club and you approach a woman.
You're the wing tonight, so you introduce your buddy and let everyone in
the group know that he's an amazing guy. You just made him interesting,
but you didn't do anything for yourself, right?
 Wrong.

In fact, you've just totally set yourself up to be a super cool guy,

because you convey respect for someone you care about. While you're
giving social value to the guy you're winging for, you're also creating
high social value for yourself in this situation. After all, if you're with
this totally awesome dude, how awesome does that make you?

Pretty awesome.

This applies basically everywhere in life. Whether you're out at a bar

or club, or just meeting people at a business conference or even trying to
make new friends when you move to a new city. If you're around people
who are interesting, people are going to assume that you're interesting
yourself. If you introduce others as being fascinating, interesting people,
others are going to want to know what you're hiding under your hat.

So, as a conclusion for this chapter, I want you to go find a wingman,

share and discuss what you want to learn first and then go out.

See you in the field!

 Chapter 7:
Step #1: The Secret of the Opening Line

"Let us always meet each other with smile, for the smile is the
beginning of love." - Mother Teresa

Over the years, Ive heard one consistent complaint that bring
students to me: I dont have the confidence to approach strangers, let
alone beautiful women, because I just dont know what to say.

I understand. It was tough for me to learn how to walk up and talk to

complete strangers; to make the cold approach. However, it needs to be
done, because its what will give you real choice. Its what will give you
the ability to say, I want to talk to that person, and then actually do it.

One of my fellow coaches reminisced with me about one of his first

cold approaches: "I saw this girl on the subway. She was standing right
near me. I looked at her knowing I was going to have to approach her.
This is why I was doing it right? To approach the people I want to be
able to talk to, I looked at her again ready to make my move, but I
couldnt move. My feet felt like they were cemented into the ground.
My heart was beating faster, and I felt like I had tunnel vision. I couldnt
do it."
 Now, after practicing, hes managed to become the kind of guy that
can approach anyone, even high-caliber women, with confidence.

How does he do it?

Well, he uses a conversation starter, commonly referred to as an

opener.

An opener is a scripted line that helps to start a conversation, and

most importantly, makes the person or group comfortable talking with
you.

Think about it this way: If you are approached by a complete

stranger, what would you be thinking? What does he want from me?
Why should I answer? How long do I have to talk to him? These
questions, if they go unanswered would make you uncomfortable, and
youd probably not want them around.

So here is the principle: To start a conversation with strangers you

must make them comfortable talking with you.

Why?

If anything you say or do feels uncomfortable, they'll probably run

for the hills as fast as possible. This is why guys are rejected so often
when they approach, because they make the woman and/or her friends
uncomfortable.

Here are five golden rules for starting conversations:

1. Say something thats interesting.

 Whatever comes out of your mouth should arouse curiosity. It
doesnt have to blow their minds, but it does have to get the group
talking.

2. Say something that leads to more conversation.

Conversation has to move forward. Generally making a statement
doesnt lead to more conversation, so try using a question. Questions
like, What's the time? or Wheres the bathroom? generally dont
work because the group simply answers them expecting you to move on.
In addition, theyre not interesting.

3. Say something that expresses a little about yourself.

Everything you say and do when youre with someone reveals
something about yourself. Be aware that the way you start a conversation
says something about you. By using an opening line you can actually
start to control the assumptions people make about you when you
approach. Think about what the things youre asking say about you.

4. Make sure they know that you cant stay long.

This may sound counter-intuitive, but when you approach, you
should always say something to the effect of, I cant stay long. The
reason for this is when a stranger approaches a person or group, that
person or group has a moment of anxiety that makes them feel
uncomfortable. Especially if they think that they are going to be stuck
with the new person talking their ear off. To alleviate this anxiety, its
important to let them know, right away, that youre leaving soon.

Now, obviously, we approached because we want to continue

conversation. Dont worry; you dont actually have to leave. You just
have to say that you cant stay long. If youre able to make them
comfortable they wont bring up that you said you had to leave. In fact,
in all the approaches Ive ever done, Ive never had anyone bring it up.

5. Make sure you give them a reason for whatever youre saying.
 You dont want to appear as though youre doing market research or
some sort of survey, so always give a reason for saying whatever you
were going to say. Youll see examples of these reasons in the openers in
this book and on the website.

How to practice starting a conversation

Now that you have the golden rules down its time to learn the
words, but before I get to the openers let me give you some tips for
practicing them:

1. Memorize and rehearse: Make sure you know what youre

saying, if you fumble with the words people will get confused. If they get
confused, they may reject you. Its just that people get uncomfortable
when theyre confused, and they reject people theyre uncomfortable
with. If you learn the opener, have it down, word for word. If you can't
rehearse at home, do it in the car while youre driving. Youll be able to
repeat the portion they didnt hear or were confused about.

2. Go out and practice. These things take time to practice. Youre

not going to get these down perfectly in a night, and its going to take
more than one approach to get them down. That means you need to put
practice time in, dont email me if it doesnt work on the first try. That
would be like taking one martial arts class, learning one punch, that you
practice once, and then blaming the teacher for teaching you something
that didnt work. Its a skill and it takes practice.

3. Add body language: Here's a little secret: Point your feet away
from the person or group you are beginning a conversation with. When
you say, I cant stick around long, Itll be more effective if your body
language is consistent with your words. When people who are really in a
hurry or arent planning on sticking around, they keep their bodies facing
the direction theyre going. Do the same; keep your feet pointed away.

Now, onto two of my favorite openers:

 Opener #1: The Cashmere Sweater Opener

"Hey, quick question, I have to take off in a minute, but I wanted to

get your advice about something. Im supposed to help my friend pick
out a cashmere sweater for his sisters birthday. I had him check her size
and she wears all smalls and mediums. So, my question is: If someone
bought you a gift would you rather it be a little too small or a little too
big?"

Opener #2: The Drunk I-Love-You Opener

"Hey, quick question. Maybe you can help with this one: Do drunk
"I-love-yous count? Like if someones drunk and they say they love
you. Does that count? The reason Im asking is because one of my
buddies is going to be here in a few minutes and he asked me something
I couldnt really give him an answer to Its kind of a relationship
question. This girl, who hes been into since college, finally opened up to
him last night and said she was in love with him. The problem is, she
was drunk and she hasnt mentioned anything since. What should I tell
him to do?"

Learning to start conversations with ease takes time, there are a lot
more tips and tricks you can employ to make it easier or refine your
delivery.

For many more openers, check out the online bonus training section
at the end of this chapter.

Creating your own opener:

Once youve practiced one of the openers, you can start to toy
around with the idea of building your own opener. Because your main
goal when starting a conversation is to make the person feel conformable
talking to you, an opener should contain certain elements to achieve this
goal. First and foremost, you have to answer the questions in their mind
before they even think them.

A fair warning: I dont think that new students should be creating

their own material. It would be like going into a martial arts class and
just deciding to make up your own moves, but I know that many of you
are going to try so here are some guidelines:

1. Why is he talking to me? Make sure your opener has a "root." In

other words, you must have a reason that youre saying whatever youre
saying. It could be that you need help to select a sweater, or to choose a
name, a dish in a restaurant. It could be that you are looking for an
opinion, an answer or advice and she looks like she can help. Either way
there has to be a reason for the approach.

2. When will he leave? Make sure that your openers have a time
constraint. That means letting the person know you cant stay long.
Maybe you have to catch a plane, get back to your friends, go to a
meeting, etc. The main point is to let the person know that you are not
going to latch onto them for an extended period of time.

3. Make sure the topic is interesting; this can serve as a springboard

for discussions and should end with a question that can lead to more
conversation.

4. Is he hitting on me? Dont start with a compliment, make it sexual

or convey that you are interested. First of all, you really don't know her -
so how can you already be interested in anything more than her looks?
Secondly, indicating your interest early on can make women
uncomfortable, and its bad seductive timing.
 5. If youre going to create an own opener, practice it regularly. You
need to work out the kinks, and you cant work them all out in your head,
they need to be field-tested.

 Chapter 8:
The Bridging Technique:
Keep Talking!

"If you always put limit on everything you do, physical or anything
else, it will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits.
There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go
beyond them." - Bruce Lee

You might think that the biggest problem I've run into as a seduction
coach was getting guys to approach intimidating beautiful women, but
youd be wrong. The biggest problem, by far, was getting guys to not run
away after a few minutes talking to a group of strangers.

Most of the time, a student would walk up, open, get the
conversation going, get nervous, and eject from the group. When I'd ask
why the student left, the answer would invariably be, "I couldn't think of
anything else to say."

Here's the thing: you do have something to say. In fact, you have lots
of things to say. You're just freezing up, because you are likely worried
about judgment from the group. Or you are overthinking the group's
opinion of you.

First piece of advice: Don't panic. This happens to most students and
theres a way to fix it. It's called "bridging."

Bridge: The all-purpose conversational linking technique

A bridge can be any question or any observation.

 A bridge is a way to propel a conversation forward and steer it in the
direction you want it to go. The first bridge generally happens right after
the opener; you ask a question or make an observation. The question or
observation should lead to a value building routine or story.

This technique was developed when a fellow coach and I were

discussing the "I have nothing to say" phenomenon, which consistently
plagues our students. At the time, we didnt teach a technique for
strategically evolving a conversation on the spot. We sat down and
thought about what drives interaction forwards. We noticed two things:

1. People would make contextual observations, or

2. People ask questions seemingly out of nowhere.

Here are a few examples:

"So, how's work?"

"How's your wife doing?"
"You remind me of this teacher I had."
"I love the music here."
"How do you all know each other?"
"I love your necklace."

Everyone, in every conversation we observed, used questions and

observations to propel conversation forward. Stack enough of questions
and observations together and you can easily extend the length of a
conversation, ad infinitum. And when we extracted this pattern, we knew
immediately that this was our answer.

However, as seducers we want to be a little more strategic. Can we

use bridging to not only propel conversation forward, but also to steer it
where we wanted it to go? Absolutely.
 Let's say you want to talk about music: You can make an observation
about the music in the room.

Let's say you want to talk about work: You could ask where someone
works.

Let's say you want to talk about travel: You could ask, "Do you do
much traveling?"

To look at it another way: You could ask the question, "How do you
all know each other?"

There are only a few answers to the question:

"We work together."
"We're related."
"We're in a romantic relationship."
"We're roommates."
"We go to school together."
"We're friends."

Knowing this ahead of time - I suggest having a story ready about

work, a sibling (or lack thereof), a romantic relationship, a roommate,
school, and a close friend. This way no matter what answer you get,
you're a step ahead and ready to move things forward.

For right now, it's important to see that a bridge can steer
conversation. Later on we'll discuss how to bridge into an identity story
(chapter 11) or a knowledge based identity story (chapter 10). The better
you get at asking questions and making observations, the easier it will be
to find places for your stories in your seductions. You can find more
information on Bridging, The Ring Finger Routine, The Best Friends
Test, and Identity Storytelling, by following the instructions at the end of
this chapter.
Tips for bridging:

Keep the bridges non-physical when you're first learning this

skill. Observations about body language are great, but one's
about her attractiveness will come off as hitting on her. Don't do
that.
One of the best bridges to use after the opener is: "How do you
all know each other?" It gives you valuable information about
the dynamics of the group you're speaking with.
Bridges are used throughout an interaction, not just after the
opener. Anytime you need to move the conversation forward or
steer it, a bridge can be applied.
Bridges are great for leading to conversations where you can
express who you are to the other person. If you are a musician
and want to talk about music, make an observation about the
music in the venue. If you love your job and want to talk about a
work related story ask, "Do you all work together?" Get their
answers and tell your story.
For guys who feel like they always run out of stuff to say, try
using a bridge when you hit that mental block. Make any
observation or ask any question, then see where the conversation
goes.

 Chapter 9:
Step #2: The Three Keys to Build Attraction and Become
the Most Interesting Guy in the Room

"Try not to become a man of success, but rather try to become a man
of value." - Albert Einstein

I'm going to teach you the three steps to becoming the most attractive
and interesting guy in the room. It is vital that you memorize each of
them. Download the cheat sheet that Ill give you at the end of this
chapter or write steps down and memorize them.

What is social value and what does building it mean?

Social value is a combination of your looks, your reputation,

what you do, and what you say in a given social situation. That means
if youre good-looking, famous, and charming youll have a lot of value
in a room. Right?

Of course it does! However, just because theyre attractive in one

room doesnt mean they are in the next, because social value is
conditional. You dont get any social value for being good looking if the
people youre interacting with think youre ugly. You dont get any value
for being famous if the people youre speaking with dont know youre
famous. Whats charming to one person might be unattractive to the
next.

Your value changes from interaction to interaction, and the value of

each of your qualities is based on the people or person youre talking
with. Its based on their perspective of the identity youre conveying.
Great seducers must learn to see themselves from the eyes of others. This
helps them calculate the most efficient and effective way to build value
with a person or group.

Were going to talk about three active ways to build value: Routines,
Identity Stories, and Active Disinterest. Later in the book well discuss
two passive ways to build value: looks and reputation.

Looks and reputation are passive, meaning that you dont have to do
anything to get them to work; people either think youre good looking or
not. They either know who you are and what youve done or they dont.
For this reason, were going to focus on the active aspects, the stuff that
takes infield practice to master.

For purposes of practice: always assume that the group or person

isnt attracted to you physically, and doesnt know anything about you. If
in conversation, you find out that the girl youre interested in is attracted
to you or has heard about you in a positive way, its a bonus.

How do you build high value in a social setting?

One of the biggest problems I see with most men who study attraction
and seduction is this: they try to get what they want before they've built
enough social value. You must learn to build high social value, and you
must learn to build a lot of it!

Social value is like money. If you want the Aston Martin, you're
going to need the $150,000 it costs to purchase it. If you don't have the
money, you're just window-shopping. Similarly, if you don't have
enough social value, you're not going to get her number, your dates will
flake, and your seduction will fail.

That said, here are the three steps you'll need to use to actively build
social value:

Key #1: Knowledge Based Social Value (Generating Social Value

with What You Know)

In movies the "player is generally portrayed as a guy with a

gimmick. He has some trick or game that he uses to charm and seduce
the women he meets. While tricks and gimmicks wont get you love,
they will help you add value in a seduction. Theyre a piece of the
puzzle. If you want to become the most interesting guy in the room, you
should memorize a few routines magic tricks, bar cons, psychology
games, or cold reads to have on hand to liven up the atmosphere. The
more entertaining routines you know and can perform, the more
interesting and fun you'll be. The knowledge based games and routines
are by no means the only way you build social value, but they can come
in handy with the right timing.

Key #2: Wisdom-based Social Value (Generating Social Value

with Your Life Story)

This is going to be the cornerstone of your social value building.

Wisdom-based value building is all about your perspective of the world.
Wait a minute, you might think. My life has not been that exciting. What
if I dont have any stories that can impress a group of people?

Dont worry; you dont need to be well traveled, have a crazy

adventurous life or a high paying job. Dont get me wrong that
definitely helps, but its not necessary. Generating value with your life
story is about sharing your perspective of reality; not bragging. It's about
lessons youve learned about life. Start by answering the following
questions:

Where have you been?

Example: When I first arrived in Indonesia to study martial arts

What lessons have you learned about life?

Example: My first job at the animal shelter showed me how

important animals can be to a child

What events have shaped your life?

Example: The moment I first heard a Metallica song I knew Id have

to start playing guitar

What hobbies do you have?

Example: I grew up watching anime and have always wanted to be

able to move like a ninja, so a few months ago I started parkour
classes

What are your preferences?

Example: My favorite food is pasta, because my grandmother made

it for us every Sunday

You're going to have to take those answers and use them to construct
"identity stories". Identity Storytelling is a technique for learning basic
storytelling and discovering how to express who you are. Youll be
taking a look at your preferences and experiences, and learning to talk
about them in a seductive way that will make you more attractive to your
audience. These stories are efficient ways to communicate who you are
(your identity) to other people.
 Key #3: Active Disinterest

Have you ever had someone tell you that the best way to pick up a
woman is to be an asshole? Or that women like bad boys? Or that good
guys finish last? Have you ever thought about why being "bad" might be
attractive?

It's a pretty simple psychological trigger. People women and men

want what they can't have. It's the scarcity and it's the challenge. It's the
hope that there is more than meets the eye. Seduction isnt about being a
jerk. Jerks are not attractive; their attitudes create permanent emotional
barriers

On the other hand, the nice guy puts up no barriers. Theres no

challenge and he comes off as needy, and thats equally unattractive.

Youre looking for the middle ground. You cant create a permanent
barrier by being mean and offensive, but there has to be some tension to
create attraction. This middle ground is found by studying active
disinterest.

How does it work? It's about learning how to create temporary

barrier that together you can overcome together.

Everyone wants the things that are just out of reach, and seduction is
based on desires that spring from unfulfilled longings, insecurities and
dreams. In order for you to want something, something else has to be
missing. This is true whether you know about seduction or not. Were all
looking for the missing half of our broken-heart necklace, in one form or
another.

I want the car because it will make me feel powerful.

I want a boyfriend so I won't feel alone.
 I want the supermodel so my friends will be jealous.
I want the job so my parents will be proud of me.

Active disinterest assists in the generation of attraction by making

yourself the thing they're missing the thing that will give the other
person what they need to fulfill their insecurity, longing or dream. This is
the most counterintuitive part of social value building, because it means
that you're demonstrating that you are not interested in an effort to pique
interest. There are a million ways to show active disinterest, but the
overall goal is to create an emotional spike.

Every seduction is a story.

Don't believe me? Ask any person you know to tell you how they
met their husband, boyfriend, or girlfriend and you will inevitably hear a
story. That story will have emotional ups and downs in it.

All good stories have emotional spikes.

In almost every romantic comedy: A guy meets a girl, and theres

some reason they cant be together, and as the movie goes on they learn
to dissolve that barrier and find love. If that barrier werent there, the
story would be boring.

We need emotional ups and downs to help us remember and enjoy a

story. A great seducer can make life a really, really great story. Which
means when you display active disinterest and add those emotional ups
and downs, you make this story fun and exciting for both of you.

Over the next few chapters, I'll delve deeper into these three steps.
You'll learn routines, a method for building identity stories, and ways to
start practicing active disinterest.

Key 1: Never Run Out of Things to Say

"I'm hungry for knowledge. The whole thing is to learn every day, to
get brighter and brighter. That's what this world is about. You look at
someone like Gandhi, and he glowed. Martin Luther King glowed.
Muhammad Ali glows. I think that's from being bright all the time, and
trying to be brighter." - Jay-Z

By now, you've noticed that there are instructions at the end of each
chapter that lead you to videos you can watch and cheat sheets you can
download -- be sure to check that out. Stylelife has a number of videos of
the knowledge-based social value generators that I mention in this
chapter up on their site. Please check them out!

That said, let's get on with it

There are two different types of social value generating stories. The
first type is a knowledge-based story also called a routine.

What are routines?

Routines are little social games, personality exercises, gimmicks,

magic tricks, thought experiments, captivating stories, riddles, or
bets that help you entertain a person or group of people.

Routines are pretty straightforward. You memorize the routine then

share it with the people youre trying to entertain. Any person, who can
deliver a good routine, becomes the center of attention and Demonstrate
High social Value (DHV). The more DHV routines you know, the more
entertaining you can be.

The reason they work so well is that they provide fun and energetic
dynamic to the social situation. A routine has to be something interesting
that raises the energy of the group, and provides an entertaining element
to the interaction.

Entering a group and lowering the energy level isnt generally a good
thing. Youre taking value in the form of energy. We dont want to take
energy; we want to give it or at least keep the energy level the same.

So you get an idea of what Im talking about: Imagine youre in a bar

with friends. Youre joking and laughing having a great time and
someone approaches you and your friends. Hes a little down, and so
suddenly the fun you and your friends were having starts to slip away.
Thats going to make you feel uncomfortable with that guy, right? You
probably wouldnt want him around for long.

Now a different story: You and youre friends are hanging out
having a good time. Someone approaches. He walks up and tells a
fascinating story something that gets everyone excited to hear more.
Chances are youre not uncomfortable around this guy, and would want
him to stick around. Hes adding value to the group.

These routines, when performed correctly, should add value to the

group by raising the energy level and keeping the group intrigued.

Hook Point

The moment the group is comfortable with you enough to carry on a

conversation, youve reached "hook point". All value-generating routines
will start after youve reached this hook point. In other words, routines
are used after youve started a conversation. Theyre not intended to start
conversations themselves, although its not uncommon that someone
who sees or hears you doing a routine will butt in and join the fun.

Selecting a Routine
 There is an endless selection of routines out there to choose
from. Just to name a few: Cold Reads, Psychology Games, Bar-Cons,
Magic Tricks. Having a number of different routines under your belt will
help you out in the long run. The more routines you have, the more
flexible youll be when youre out practicing.

For example, Ive found bar-cons to be great games to play at

parties and lower-energy bars. Ive found cold reads to benefit me
anywhere that someone doesnt have trouble hearing me, while magic
tricks can be great for loud clubs, especially if the illusion is visual.
Psychology games work best for me when Im sitting with new
acquaintances, like at dinner parties and social events where I already
know a good amount of people.

As you practice these routines, youll find that your experience is

a little different than mine. I have friends who can perform illusions
almost anywhere and others who rely solely on cold reading. The point
is, test all of them (even if that means stepping outside your comfort
zone), and then decide which work better for you. Just dont ignore them
completely.

I've included a sample routine at the end of the chapter, but

remember there are training videos in the bonus section.

Polishing a Routine: Turning a Routine into a Story

Once you have a few routines memorized and have

experimented with them a bit, youll find that sometimes they can feel
like theyre a little too non sequitur.

These are interactive stories that you're telling, and while they
may be entertaining, you are not meant to be entertainment. You
dont want to feel like youre standing on a stage performing
 routine after routine. You can prevent this by not doing any more
than two during a single environment on the same night.

Spend some time memorizing how these routines work. The

better you know them, the easier it will be to insert them into
your seduction. Most of these routines are not inherently
romantic, which means you can practice them on friends and
family before you start using them for cold approaches.

Try not to use all the routines you know early on in a seduction.
Save some of them for the date, or later on in the interaction.

Now let's take a look at a fully fleshed out routine.

The Ring Finger Routine:

Deconstructing Knowledge Based Value Generators

One routine that I've been teaching for years, and have seen work
over and over again, is The-Ring-Finger routine.

Take a look at the routine I've laid out here. Pay attention to the
structure. If you like the routine try it out, make it yours. If youre not
interested in it, you can find more routines at the end of the chapter.

Part 1: The Set-up

Start the routine with a story. The story should be a short explanation
that gives context on the routine you're about to present. Start with where
did you learned it and why you're bringing it up. The point of having the
set up sometimes-called a "root" is to make things seem less random
by adding context, and to provide them with some information about
yourself.

Heres an example of a set-up for the "Ring Finger" routine:

 When you notice a ring on someone's finger, point it out and say, "I
have a friend who was into mythology and she taught me that the finger
you wear your ring on says something about your personality. In ancient
times, each finger represented a different Greek god. Praise was given to
a particular god by the finger or fingers one chose to wear rings on."

Part 2: The Routine/Knowledge-based Story

Here you're going to play the game, perform the cold-read, or do the
magic trick. Whatever skill or knowledge you think would be valuable to
present at this time in conversation goes here, always after the set-up.

Continued Example for the "Ring Finger" routine:

THE THUMB: "The thumb represents Poseidon, god of the sea. He

was very independent. He was the only god who didn't live on Mount
Olympus. People who wear thumb rings are independent and don't
follow trends, preferring instead to set their own."

THE INDEX FINGER: "The index finger represents Zeus, king of

all gods, and the God of Thunder and Lightning. It's a very dominant
finger, and having a ring on that finger means you tend to be a dominant
person. It shows power and immense energy."

THE MIDDLE FINGER: "Your middle finger represents

Dionysus, god of wine and partying. He is a very irreverent God. A ring
there means you do whatever you want and care little of what others
think." Give her the bird and say, "It's like a screw you to the world when
you're wearing a ring on that finger." (This joke always gets a laugh.)

THE RING FINGER: If she has a ring on this left hand ring finger
ask, "Is that a wedding ring or do you just wear it to keep the jerks
away?" You'll be shocked how often she isn't married. If she's married,
you can run the routine for practice or to attract her friends "Your ring
finger is Aphrodite, goddess of love. That's why it's the wedding ring
finger. It's the only finger with a vein straight to the heart without
branching off. When someone puts a ring on it, they're making a direct
connection with your heart."

THE PINKY: "The pinky represents Ares, god of war. That's why
mobsters wear pinky rings." Ask her, "Did you buy the ring yourself or
did someone give you it?" If she bought it say, "At times you're at war
with yourself; you have an inner emotional conflict. There's something
you're not comfortable with about yourself." If she received the ring from
someone tell her, "There may be tension below the surface between you
two or some unresolved problems you haven't solved yet."

NO RING: If she's not wearing any rings, instead ask, "Out of

curiosity and I'll explain why I'm asking later when you wear rings,
what fingers are they usually on?" Then you can start the routine as
presented at the top.

Part 3: The Conclusion

After you have performed the routine, you're going to make a point
about its relevance and the reason you have shared it. Or use the
conclusion to springboard into more conversation.

For the Ring-Finger routine, I like to use it to springboard into more

conversation: "I'm not sure if you've ever been around someone so much
that you start picking up some of their quirks, but I always find myself
looking at what rings people wear, because I was around my friend so
much. Have any of you had that experience before?"

Excerpt from Neil Strauss' best-selling book "The Game" (p. 159):

So now that Id opened the set, it was time to demonstrate value and
blow Heidi out. I ran a piece Id invented after meeting the fake sisters in
Miami the best friends test.
I have to ask you guys: How long have you known each other? I
began.
About six years, one of the girls said.
I could totally tell.
How?
Rather than explain, Ill give you two the best friends test.
The girls leaned in toward me, thrilled by the idea of an innocuous
test. Guys in the community have an expression for this phenomenon: I
was giving them chick crack. Most women, they say, respond to
routines involving tests, psychological games, fortune-telling, and cold-
reading like addicts respond to free drugs.
Okay, I said, as if I were about to ask a serious question. The girls
huddled in closer. Do you both use the same shampoo?
They looked at each other to decide on an answer, then turned to me
and opened their mouths to speak.
 The answer doesnt matter, I cut them off. You already passed.
But we dont use the same shampoo, one of the girls said.
But you both looked at each other before you answered. See, if you
didnt know each other well, youd keep eye contact with me. But when
two people have a connection, they look at each other first and
communicate almost telepathically before answering. They dont even
need to speak to each other. The two girls looked at each other again.
See, I exclaimed. Youre doing it right now.
They burst out laughing. Big points for Style.

 Chapter 11:
Key 2: Be Fascinating and Stay Authentic: The "Identity
Storytelling" Technique

"Character may almost be called the most effective means of

persuasion. " - Aristotle

Every great seducer is a storyteller in some fashion they use stories

to express identity and take people on emotional journeys.

So, what is identity? Why's that important?

There are countless philosophers who've written about identity and

all the ways to interpret it.

For our purposes, let's think of it like this: Everything you say or do
in tells the person or people youre interacting with something about you
what you wear, how you look, and what you say all of it matters.

It's like handing each person you meet puzzle pieces that they put
together in their heads. The end result is a picture of who they
individually think you are. In other words, they make judgments based
on the pieces you give them and then they categorize you. Each category
comes with its own judgments based on that persons experiences.

Every person takes these shortcuts. The human brain is programmed

to categorize new information; to make judgments so it can understand
the world quickly. Your brain does it too. If it didn't do that, you'd
experience complete and utter chaos, every single day.

Heres something almost every guy does wrong: When an average

man meets a new woman he is just tossing puzzle pieces to her without
really understanding the total puzzle picture she is drawing of him. This
can be disastrous.

As a master of attraction and seduction, you want to get some level

of control over those pieces. You're looking to give women the pieces
that will be most attractive to them, and then share the identity you want
them to see. That's where Identity Storytelling comes in.

"Identity Storytelling" is a technique in which you share your own

authentic insights, experiences, opinions and learning in an emotional
way that makes you interesting, intriguing and entertaining.

You might think, "But I'm not interesting and I don't have many
interesting things to say."

Wrong!

Even someone who has never experienced anything exciting can still
have insights and wisdom about life. Let me explain:

Identity stories can be about anything: Your hobbies, the places

youve visited, events in your life, your job, your friends, your
preferences, your goals anything.

One of my favorite examples about the effect of Identity Storytelling

came from a student I had a few years ago. He was meeting up with me
to get some advice on meeting women. The conversation went on for a
while and I decided to share "Identity Storytelling" with him which, at
the time, I'd never taught before. A year later, I bumped into him again at
one of Neil's events, and asked him how everything was going. He told
me, "That Identity Storytelling thing worked pretty well."

"Oh yeah? Tell me about it," I prompted.

 "Well I ended up using it at work. The company I was working for
was trying to hire this one particular business. I told a story about what
the company I wanted them to work with meant to me. And by the end of
the meeting we'd made a deal to go with them. That decision made the
company about four million dollars. So, thanks for your advice."

The Identity Storytelling Exercise:

Here is a three-step exercise called "Identity Storytelling" that will

help you learn to express your identity, while simultaneously learning
basic story telling structure.

Three Steps to telling an identity story:

1. Start at the beginning: Think about a topic that you'll want to

talk about, what you're going to say, and practice by introducing your
stories with a feeling and an experience or preference. Here are some
examples:

"The most exciting adventure I ever went on was..."

"My favorite band is..."
"The most influential person I ever met was..."
"My favorite bar to visit is...
"The movie I love the most is..."

2. Lead their emotions when telling the story: Here's the only
thing you need to remember about Identity storytelling:

Don't talk about your story technically, talk about it as an experience

and include the emotions it evoked.

Let's assume you like the band Metallica. Dont say to a woman,
"My favorite band is Metallica because I love the lyrics and I think the
guitarist is awesome."
 Why is this bad?

Because, it doesn't explore your identity or create any emotional

response.

In this example, Im selling you the band and not myself. By reading
it you learn very little about me. In seduction, you're selling yourself. In
Identity Storytelling you are expressing your identity with every word
and action.

Instead, say something like this, "My favorite band is Metallica,

because listening to them inspired me to pick up the guitar and start
playing."

In this example, the band inspired you to do something. The woman

learns at least two things about you:

You play guitar

You were inspired by Metallica.

3. End the story: You need to make sure every story you tell has an
end because all good stories do. An end gives the woman you are talking
to the feeling like it's her turn to speak and promotes conversation.
Practice ending your stories similarly to the way you started them.

"...And that was the most exciting adventure I'd ever gone on."
"...And that's why they're my favorite band."
"...And that's what made [person] so influential to me."
"...And that's why [name of venue] is my favorite bar."
"...And that's why I was so moved by the
 That's the basic concept. Also, just to be clear: Identity stories
should never come off as boasting, and should not be fictional. In other
words, dont lie; live life and tell your real stories.

Here's a check-list of storytelling steps:

1. State what you're talking about when you start your story.
2. Tell a story by leading their emotions.
3. End the story definitively.

Lessons in Action: Identity Storytelling

Youre so passionate! She stood between my legs as I sat in one of

the few open bar stools. She subtly rubbed her dancers body against my
inner thighs as she continued, Ive lived out here for two months, and
youre the first person Ive met who actually cares about other people,
who actually wants to have a conversation about something other than
sports

I focused on her dark brown eyes as she spoke. Her face framed by
her ringlets of dark curls. The words continued flowing from her red lips,
but my focus wavered slightly as I realized what I had accomplished:

I had attracted the woman, who from my perspective was the

most beautiful woman in the bar.

You just seem like a really cool person, she said.

Youre different, she said.

What made me so different?

Im not different, I replied. Im the exception.

 ************************************

I showed up to the venue with a few friends. The bar was packed full
of attractive women, and men (who I could only assume) werent very
skilled at seduction. I had the upper hand.

I took my time with approaches and focused on keeping my friends

entertained. I bought the birthday boy a drink and shared stories while I
took note of the interesting people in the bar.

Thats when I saw her.

She was surrounded by five guys. The guys all seemed to be drunk. I
walked over and opened one of the drunk guys by asking if hed seen the
game earlier. He started telling me a story about how he and his four
buddies had not only seen the game theyd been at the game.

Oh thats awesome! I wish I could have been there! Im jealous, I

said. So how do you all know each other?

I find out that the lady Im interested in is on a date with Alex, one of
the buddies. Their body language tells me that its a first date, or at least,
that they arent very comfortable with each other yet physically.

Conversation with her friends continues, and naturally, she joins. She
tells me that she recently moved to the Bay Area from New York.

I start telling an identity story about the Bay Area to the group.
Surprisingly, Im able to hold all of their attention large groups can be
tough. We all talk and joke around for a while and I can sense that the
woman Im interested in is getting drawn into me. There are signs that
she wants to talk to me, but shes shy.
 You guys should come meet some of my friends. I motion towards
my crew. Were out celebrating my roommates birthday.

Maybe well catch up with you later, said Alex. I believe Alex had
begun to feel threatened by me. However, when I left the group, two of
the other guys came with me.

I introduced her group of friends to mine. She came along, and

joined the group. At this point I was sure she wanted me to say
something to her. So, I did.

I love this gold lace in your dress pattern. I touched her dress
material and nodded approvingly. It works well with the gold jewelry.

Thank you! she said. Im trying to step up my wardrobe. She

reaches over to a pin on my lapel. Is that a lion?

Of course, I said, then I went into an Identity Story about

leadership and how I think its important to convey a sense of self with
your style, which she said she found fascinating. It opened up endless
conversational threads.

As we spoke I noticed an open bar stool, so I continued talking to her

while leading her to the stool. I sat down with open body language. As I
talked, she pressed herself between my legs.

At this point, I started seeding like crazy. I told Identity Stories and
seeded until she couldnt take it anymore. She could not withstand the
"Stringer Seeding Frenzy." She pulled out her phone and number closed
me.

Note: More on seeding in the chapter Seeding: The most efficient

way to get a date
 Alex, the guy she was on a date with, entered our intimate set and
tried to pull her away. He was drunk and sadly attempted the old Hail
Mary play to pull her home. He said: Im going to get out of here. Did
you still want to come back and hang out for a while?

To which she replied, No thanks. I think Im going to stay out a

little bit longer. Have a great night and get home safe.

Alex exited, dejected and wondering what the hell happened. She
was going to go home with him until I arrived.

I continued to talk to her about her passions and goals for a long
time. It started getting pretty late, and my friends told me that they were
going to leave.

After she closed out, I lead her out of the venue by the hand. While
walking, I caressed her hand with my thumb and she reciprocated. When
we got to her car, we made out for a while. I cut it off and told her that
shed better go. We agreed to see each other on Tuesday. She drove off.

When I woke up the next morning, I had already received a text from
her saying that she cant wait to hang out soon.

Be the exception.

 Chapter 12:
Key 3: The Power of Active Disinterest,
Otherwise Known as Banter or Flirting

"The trick when you're flirting is figuring how to keep a balance

between being engaging enough to retain a woman's attention and not
seeming overly available. So you tease a person a little. " - Neil Strauss

Active disinterest is, by far, the most counterintuitive piece of the

attraction and seduction puzzle. Let's take a look and analyze why active
disinterest is so important and how theyre used.

Every romantic relationship is a story, and every good story has

emotional ups and emotional downs. As I mentioned before, if you went
to see a movie and nothing bad ever happened, it would be a pretty
boring movie the same would be true for a movie where nothing good
happened. The emotional ride makes the story interesting, memorable
and fun.

These emotional ups and downs happen naturally, whether you

understand the principles of attraction and seduction or not.

A good female friend of mine was on a date with this guy. The guy
was acting smooth like over the top smooth and it turned her off,
because she knew he was trying to be aloof to seduce her. It wasn't until
later in the date, when he accidentally spilled his glass of wine on
himself, and fumbled as he tried to recover, that she started thinking she
was into him. It was the ride of emotional ups and downs that won her
over.

As a future master of attraction and seduction, you must learn how

these emotional ups and downs work. Active disinterest, otherwise
known as banter and flirting, is a technique that is used to create
emotional spikes.

Here is an example of active disinterest:

Smile and say teasingly: "If you were just one inch taller, you'd be
so my type."

This spikes an emotion in a playful way: On one hand, you are

telling her that she is not your type. So she'll wonder, "Is he hitting on me
or not?"

Another example: After she teases you, or says something self

deprecating, you can say: "Note to self: Don't date this girl."
Again, you are actively telling her that you don't want to date her. By
doing so you also admit that it was a possibility until now.

"You are hired!" when she says something you approve of.

"You're so fired." when she challenges you.

Your delivery is deadpan with a smirk

Why It Works: Even though she's not your employee and you're not
her boss, it subtly sets a frame of higher status; you're the boss and you're
leading the interaction and get to make these decisions. Shell know that
you're joking around. You've just fired her. That's a playful rejection.
She's going to want to work toward reversing that rejection, if shes sees
value in you.

If she touches you early in the interaction: "Hey now, hands off the
merchandise.

Say it playfully and with a smile.

 Why It Works: Because most men are excited to be touched and
you're stopping it, so you're the exception to the rule. It also works
because it flips the script, turning her into the one hitting on you and
makes her the one trying to earn your favor.

One more example: When she makes you laugh, you say "Don't get
your hopes up. I'm not easy." This sentence has not only a strong frame
in which she is portrayed as hitting on you, but again telling her that you
are not (yet) interested.

Key rules for Active Disinterest, disqualification and flirting:

1. Theres No One Emotion Involved: Many seduction coaches

claim that active disinterest must be playful. I find this to be
incredibly limiting. Every emotion and perspective a seducer has
should be in his tool belt. Active disinterest could be a bunch of
silly remarks or a serious disqualification. What matter is that the
technique follows the principle, and it serves to create the
intended effect: a temporary barrier that causes an emotional
spike. If you insult them the barrier will likely be permanent. If
the tease is too light it wont have any emotional effect. In either
case it was done wrong. Find the middle ground, explore your
emotions and experiences until you do.
2. It's Interactive: It isn't a monologue, it's a dialogue. You need to
draw her out of her shell and get her involved in the conversation.
The more involved she is in the banter, the more she's going to get
emotionally-invested in you.
3. She Must Care: If you want your active disinterest to have an
emotional effect, then the other person must care about the person
showing the active disinterest. For this reason, you should only
start your active disinterest once youre sure the group is
 comfortable with you in conversation. If theyre not comfortable
with you and you show disinterest, theyll just push you away.
4. It Must Have Context: Active disinterest that comes out of
nowhere generally has it opposite effect than the one you want; it
shows interest rather than showing disinterest. Practicing active
disinterest means paying attention to the conversation thats at
hand and commenting on whats actually happening.
5. It's Part of the Plan: We emphasize active disinterest for a
reason. Its necessary. You must manufacture emotional spikes if
they dont come up naturally, which most often they do not. Dont
forget to use it, or skip it because youre uncomfortable.
6. Eventually Interest Outweighs Disinterest: Once youve
reached the connect phase, active interest must out weigh the
active disinterest. In other words, you dont have to stop flirting,
but at that point she has to know youre more interested than not.
You have to dissolve those temporary barriers and connect at long
last.

These are the principles behind active disinterest, good

disqualification, banter and flirting. For the record: What active
disinterest, banter and flirting is: it's not an argument nor an insult.

You never win an argument, because even if you win, you lose the
future of a possible beautiful relationship. And most of the time
arguments end with both people still on the side they started on. The
barrier that was there when the argument started remains intact. Insults
and making fun of other people immediately destroys trust. For this
reason, arguments and insults are the least seductive form of
communication. Just avoid it.

IMPORTANT: Timing your active disinterest:

 When should you use active disinterest? When the woman is truly
comfortable with you in conversation. If she is uncomfortable with you
and you try to show disinterest, she'll become even more uninterested.
Conversely, if you build a little bit of social value, and she is invested in
the conversation and you show active disinterest, the effect will be
significant. Its also important to note that active disinterest should be
contextual. In other words, it should have something to do with whats
actually happening in the interaction. If you tease her, seemingly, out of
nowhere, it could come off as awkward or as a demonstration of interest.
When using active disinterest make sure theres context for your
comment.

Youre so cool. Im just going to keep saying that until I convince

myself its true.
You're a dork. We should find you a guy with the same uniqueness.
You're too nice for me. Im sure there is a ton of guys dying to meet
you on Tinder.
Youre awesome; youd be great for my friend.
You're cute. You'd make an adorable friend.
Ill tell you when youre older.
Let's take this slow I dont want to get hurt.
Okay, you girls have taken up enough of my time. I have other
friends to entertain.
I should let you get back to your friends; theyll think youre hitting
on me.

So here's the rule: If you're trying to seduce someone, make sure

they're comfortable with you before attempting to use active disinterest.

Lessons in Action: Active Disinterest

"Oh my god, I love your hair so much, can I please touch it," she
asks. Her hands frantically dance about in the air as she awaits my
reply.
 Her friend shares a different point of view, "I think it's ridiculous,
you need a haircut."

"Okay, one quick touch, but I'm headed back to my friends right
now," I tell the girls. I haven't seen them in years."

With my permission, the dancing hands shoot into my hair and with a
giant smile on her face she asks, "What's your name?"

"I'm Jason, you?"

"I'm Lacey."

"I'm Mary, and I just want you to know, you look silly. I really think
we need to shave your head."

Stern voice. Innocent face. Hypnotic cleavage. The low cut shirt she
wore was designed to tempt every male eye that crossed its path. It
begged us to notice her, fight past her tests, and discover the truth of her
nature. Challenge accepted. "Well, this one is trouble. I think I need to
stay away from you two."

"No, no!" Lacey protests, "You should hang out with us."

"Sorry," I reply. "I really do need to go rejoin my friends now. I'll

swing by later and say hello to you guys."

I have a few beers and catch up with some old comedian friends I
used to perform with back in the days I worked the NYC stand up circuit.
An hour passes and Mary walks by and greets me, "Hi, Jason!"

"Oh, hey Mary, this is my friend Adam. He is a pretty amazing guy.

He has to leave in a few minutes because he is meeting Oprah tomorrow
morning." She stares suspiciously so I call her out on it, "Do you think
I'm making that up?"

She responds, "Honestly, I really don't care."

Did you come over here and say hi just so you could be mean
again?"

"No! I was just on my way to the bathroom."

"Ok, well, good seeing you then," I gesture for her to continue on her
way. I say goodbye to Adam, who really did need to get up early to meet
Oprah, and then ask my buddy Ben to wing for me. I bring him over and
introduce him to Lacey. When Mary returns, she begins to barrage me
with a bunch more meaningless insults. I let a wounded expression cross
my face, as if she had finally cut me too deep.

"Wait," she said, looking concerned, "I didn't really mean that."

"Stop being cruel to me then. Come here. Give me a hug."

"I don't do hugs."

"Ok, then give me an embrace."

She extended her arms low, "I'll do this."

I wrapped my arms around her and pulled her close. She began
patting me on the back a slow, falsely sympathetic pat.

"Don't do that," I instructed.

She stopped, and then whispered to me, as if it was a dangerous

secret, "I've interlocked my fingers."
 "Much better."

We sat back down and started talking. She began telling me stories
of being in Italy and learning to sing Opera. I started digging into her
experiences asking about her favorite roles and characters she has
explored.

Lacey spots the two of us getting close and interjects, "Sorry buddy,
but you have no shot with her."

"What are you talking about?"

"You can try all you want, but seriously, you have no shot getting her
in bed with you."

"Are you suggesting I'm trying to have sex with your friend? We
were just talking about how she studied Opera in Italy, and I found it
really fascinating."

"Yea, well, obviously she is very beautiful, but you have no shot."

"Look, I don't know why you are suddenly accusing me of trying to

take her home, but that's not my intention. Sure, I admit she is a very
beautiful woman, but I think it's important to appreciate someone for
more than just their looks alone. But, if youre letting me know you don't
think I'm handsome enough or charming enough to talk to her, then okay,
I guess I could just leave."

"No, sorry, I was just kidding. I wasn't saying you aren't handsome
or charming. I was joking. Relax. That was really amazing what you said
about valuing women for more than just their looks. It's just, not many
guys are like that. You must not have always been that way; what
changed?"
 I began talking about my life, the various changes I'd been through,
and how I now teach men how to best present themselves to romantically
connect with the women they desire. She shared her own romantic ideas
about how a woman should be wooed, "All you need to do is tell the girl
that you like her. That's all we really want."

"I think it's a bit more complicated than that."

"No, it's not. That's all you need to do." Mary was scrolling through
some texts on her phone, and I tap her on the shoulder. She turns and
looks at me. In as a genuine voice as I could muster, I said, "Hey, I just
wanted to let you know, I really do like you."

Her eyes light up and she asks, "Can I buy you a beer?"

I set out to make the point that winning over a woman is more than
just conveying interest; what I forgot was that conveying interest was the
exact right next move to do with Mary. I'd accidentally timed it perfectly.
The results were a free Guinness and a once again furious Lacey.

"You're too smooth! You came over here. You talked to me just long
enough to make me comfortable. Then you start hitting on my friend. Oh
man, aren't you clever!"
"Listen, I don't know why things keep getting weird. Thank you so
much for the drink, Mary," I down a few gulps and continue, "I really
think everyone got the wrong idea about me. You're both really cool, but
just to prove that I don't have any ulterior motives, here's what I'm going
to do: After I finish this beer, I'm going to walk out of here. I'm not going
to ask for either of your numbers. Neither of you will ever see or hear
from me again. Then you will know I was never up to anything
malicious."
 My wing Ben reengages Lacey. He saw things getting crazy and
wanted to help calm it down. Mary positioned herself directly in front of
me, inches away from my face, "If you just left like that, it would really
be a shame."

I didn't say a word. I just looked back into her eyes and let the
tension build. When she could no longer take it, she lunged in for the kiss
and began making out with me.

Step #3: The Most Powerful Way to Connect With a
Woman

"It is wonderful to have someone praise you, to be desired."

- Marilyn Monroe

Have you ever received a compliment that really hit you hard,
something that made you excited, something that you really appreciated
hearing? That's the kind of compliment we want to learn to give a
compliment that is authentic, moving and specific.

This step of giving compliments is just as necessary as the

previous step of using active disinterest. The two, active disinterest and
active interest (compliments), balance each other out, creating negative
and positive emotional spikes. They help move the story that is your
seduction forward. They give it energy.

In any romantic experience, the active disinterest has to outweigh the

active interest, until the woman shows interest in you. Once you're sure
she is interested in you, then it's time to flip the scale: active interest
should then outweigh active disinterest.

The Three Connection Pitfalls

Forgetting to compliment
One pitfall many men run into when they're trying to learn to
master the art of attraction and seduction is forgetting to compliment the
woman. Forgetting to compliment a woman once she is interested in you
can make you seem uninterested, and sometimes a little cold. It can also
make you seem like youre only into her for her looks.

Complimenting too early

As Ive mentioned a number of times in this book: seduction is
about timing, not speed. Guys often rush to compliment a woman when
theyre attempting a seduction. Theyll approach saying something like,
I saw you from across the room and thought you were beautiful, I would
have been kicking myself all day if I didnt come over and say hello.

It sounds smooth, but is it effective?

Not likely. Heres the deal: You have to have interest before you
show interest. Most guys dont have interest when they approach. The
guys that do are either: 1. Very physically attractive to the woman
theyre approaching. 2. Known by the woman for some sort of attractive
reputation.

If you know one of these two things are true, then you have
value and can approach with a compliment. That said, you dont lose
anything by approaching with a neutral opener, and taking the time to
make sure your assumption is correct, and learn something about her
before you compliment her.
 A badly timed compliment can come off as needy, desperate and
untrue. Many women are used to having guys approach them with
compliments, or compliment them before theyre interested. It doesnt
stand out, and it suggests youre attracted to only what you see, because
you havent spent the time to get to know them yet which brings me to
the next pitfall

Meaningless Compliments
Your compliments need to move her. They need to have an
emotional effect. A compliment with no emotional effect is pointless.
Students of seduction should stay away from compliments based on
physical appearance. This is the most common type of compliment
women will get. You might be saying, You have beautiful eyes, and
you might even mean it, the problem is that shes only hearing, I want
to get you into bed. This is because, most guys compliment women on
their looks before knowing anything about them. It makes the
compliments valueless, irritating even. Thats why were going to learn
to talk, listen, and compliment in an authentic way that creates real
connection and has emotional weight.

So, how do you do it the right way?

Here's how: Give the compliments some depth.

Don't compliment her on something without reason. Make sure the

compliment itself has some specific meaning to you. This makes the
compliment more than just surface level; it makes it personal and gives it
more of an emotional impact. So, start with a quality you like about
them, and let them know what it is.

Examples:
I like how adventurous you are...
I like how well read you are...
I like your sense of style...
 I like how well travelled you are...

Think about what that quality means to you, and why you like it.
Here's a simple compliment script you can use to flesh out your
compliments:

"I really enjoy how [trait] you are. It's important to me because
[reason]. Whenever I meet someone who is [trait], it's like a breath of
fresh air. Thanks for being awesome."

In this story traits can be anything from well-traveled, stylish, well-

read, intelligent, quick-witted, badass, it's up to you.

Other Examples:

I like how adventurous you are. I try to live my life like a storybook;
taking risks and exploring the world, and when I meet someone else
who feels the same it's really exciting for me.
I really like your sense of style. To me, fashion is an extension of
your identity, when you meet someone with a unique style it says a
lot about that person. Its almost a sign that the conversation is going
to be just as interesting. So far, it seems to be true.

Compliment more than once.

Don't just give one compliment. In fact, once you know that she is
attracted and interested in you, sprinkle a few compliments into the
conversation. Just remember not to give them all at once.

When I coach Stylelife bootcamps, I always suggest telling a woman

three non-physical things you like about her.
Why non-physical?
Because you are still strangers, and physical compliments often
come off as sexual. In addition, pointing out physical features to her will
communicate subliminally that you are only looking at her body, which
is what most guys do, and I want you to be the exception.

Heres a game you can play to keep you complimenting successfully:

When you're in a group with a woman you're interested in, try to
count out three non-physical traits they have that are attractive to you.
Then tell her what those qualities are. You only score a point if you can
think of a non-physical trait and you let them know you know that its a
great quality.

The goal is to earn three points. This game will help you pay
attention to details when it comes to their stories and mannerisms, and it
will remind you to let them know you're interested.

Practicing Connection
As I said earlier, if you know shes interested in you before you
approach, you could potentially start with a compliment. However, its
not good to practice this way.

If you approach with a compliment, then youre assuming shes

either physically attracted to you or knows who you are for some sort of
attractive reputation. Dont assume this when youre practicing. Always
practice as though shes not physically attracted to you, and doesnt
know who you are. When youre in conversation, and youll find out for
sure itll be a bonus, and the speed of your seduction will increase.

 Chapter 14:
Step #4: How to Get Her Number, Set Up a Date and
Beyond

"Success depends upon previous preparation, and without such

preparation there is sure to be failure." - Confucius

Over the years I've met a lot of men, but very few of them were able
to walk into a bar and approach the women they were interested in.
These exceptional men were fun to be around and got a lot of numbers
from very attractive women. However, a few days later when they called
or texted those women, they didn't respond or the dates would inevitably
fall through. Which meant almost no man could date the women they
actually wanted to date.

Interestingly, almost all men were able to set up meetings in their

jobs with people in any industry, and those meetings always happened
and the dates never flaked.
 Why? What is the difference between the two meetings? And is there
an effective and proven way to set up a date with a woman that she is
looking forward to and would never flake on?

When I started to learn about attraction and seduction, I was curious

and determined to find a method that works. So, I searched high and low
for strategies for closing meetings, getting phone numbers and setting up
dates. I must have tried a dozen or so, with varying amounts of success.

The answer finally came when I moved out to Los Angeles. I was
living with Neil Strauss for a few months, and while I was there he
taught me a technique called, "Seeding a Date." No joke seeding was
the answer to how to set up a date. I've been using it (and teaching it)
ever since.

Seeding is all about "planting a seed" in a persons mind about a cool

event that is happening, venue to check out, a new restaurant, a new band
or a concert. The key is to bring it up in the conversation without inviting
her at least initially. It's really a simple change up in the pattern of how
we normally try to set up meetings and dates that makes all the
difference.

Now, before I get into the meat of it, I want to explain something:
I'm going to teach you the proper way to seed a date, but it's going to
take some time to work all the kinks out of your ability to perform this
technique. However, if you can just remember this one lesson you're
pretty much doing it right.

There is one big mistake that most men make. The result is that she
either won't give out her number, or if she volunteers her digits she wont
answer the phone or she wont show up to the date.

The Solution: Set up the date and then get the number. Don't try
and get her phone number and then set up the date, like every other guy.
 That's it. Why is this a better strategy? Because if you set up the date
first then she has a reason to give you her number. In addition, setting up
the date before asking for her phone number lets you know if this woman
is interested in meeting up; if she is not interested she'll ignore the
request or simply say she is busy, in which case you have to go back to
building attraction and value.

That all said, here are the finer details:

The Seven Steps to Seeding a Date

1. Field research: Find a few place you'd enjoy taking a date:

This happens before you go out to meet women. After all, if you
want to take a woman on a date, you should know a cool place to check
out with her. The more you know about what's happening in your city
from art festivals, to cooking classes or wine tastings the more social,
hip and worldly you will appear. Do your research, then get out there and
explore.

Exploration can be its own fun adventure. Bring friends; the side
effect is that if you were the kind of person that didnt get out much, your
friends will begin to see you also in a new light. The places can be
anywhere from a cocktail lounge to a park that you think youd enjoy
visiting.

In the end, whats going to matter is that the place has special
meaning to you. In other words, it has to reflect some part of your
identity. After a night of exploration, ask yourself a few questions:

What did I like about the place I visited?

Are there any stories I can tell about the place itself?
Was there anything about the place that triggered a memory or
sparked an idea?
 The answers to these questions will help you when you start
recommending locations and setting up dates.

2. Plant the Seed by Recommending a Location:

Once you've met a woman you're interested in going out with, give
them a recommendation to one of the places you'd like, but here's the
catch: Don't invite her to go there with you. All I want you to do is
recommend the place, and I want you to do it early on in the
conversation. Make sure you really sell it: 1) tell her what's special about
this venue, and 2) what the place means to you, what you love about it,
and why she needs to check it out.

3. Wait to Invite:

After you recommend the place, just keep talking. Tell stories, be
entertaining, flirt, tease just keep the conversation going.

4. Invite Her:

So, you've recommended a great place without inviting her. Then

you kept the conversation going, being as conversationally attractive as
you could. If she's giving you signs of comfort and interest, it's time to
invite her out. The key to setting up the date is to be specific: pick a date
and place. Say something like this, "Hey, this Thursday I'm headed over
to that [fill in the blanks with what you had recommended earlier] I was
telling you about, you should come along. I think you'd really enjoy it."

5. Agree or Disagree:

At this point, she's going to do one of three things:

 a. She can reject your proposal by saying something like, "I'm
busy" or "I'm working that night". If this happens, then she's not into
you, and you're going to have to go back and work on being more
conversationally attractive.

b. Shell accept by saying something like, "Sure" or "Yeah, that

sounds great". If this happens, move on to step 6.

c. She'll reschedule by saying something like, "I'm working that

night, but I'm free Friday." This is a good thing people will go out of
their way to hang out with people they're interested in, and you've just
proven to yourself that you're interesting to her. The only problem that
pops up here is that she might pick a day that you're not free. Don't worry
about it; just work it out to find a day that you're both available.

6. Exchanging Numbers:

Now that she's agreed to go on a date with you, and you have the
date and place picked say, "Great, lets exchange information, and I'll text
you the night before with the details." Give her your number and get
hers.

7. Stick Around:

Once she gives you her number, don't just leave. You don't want it to
feel like the whole reason you were there was to get her phone number.
Hang out, keep the conversation going, leave when it comes to a natural
end, and contact her like you said you would in the previous step.

8. Text her when you said you would

The next step is pretty simple. If you were going to text her the night
before your planned date with the details then, do exactly that.
 The text should be simple, it should have the address and the
information about how youre getting there. For example:

"Tomorrow night, heres the address: [name of place, address].

Ill meet you there around at 8pm."
"Tomorrow afternoon, heres the address: [name of place,
address]. Well meet at my place and carpool over."
"Tomorrow afternoon, heres the address: [name of place,
address]. The closest subway stop is West 4th street."

And that's it!

The goal at first should be to always try and set up the date before
going for the number. Pay attention to how she reacts when you ask her
to join you. If shes not showing much interest, then you most likely
have to work on building attraction.

Learning to seed a date is the most important technique Ive ever

learned for getting a phone number. I promise you that if you start using
it youll start to see changes in your ability to get solid dates with women
youre interested in. In the next chapters we'll dive into what to do when
you are on the date and beyond.

Good luck.

 Chapter 15:
Texting and Phone Calls Before The First Date

"Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication." - Leonardo da Vinci

As you learned in the last chapter, you can reduce women flaking on
you by seeding a date. The better you get at it the less likely it is that a
woman will not respond to you or stand you up. That said, do you text or
call a woman once you have her phone number?

The good news is that if you've seeded a date, you've done almost all
of the heavy lifting already. Here are my simple rules for texting and
calling after you seeded your date:

Rule #1: Use the phone for logistics, not flirting, not joking, not
sending pictures, asking for pictures, or anything else.

You want to build your emotional connections in person, not over

the phone. Text flirting comes later, once you have built a solid
foundation of rapport, trust and inside jokes. So once you've set up the
date or received the phone number, you'll simply send her a text or call
her the day before the meet-up and figure out how you're getting there,
the address of your meeting, and anything else they'd need to know to
make getting there easier.

Rule #2: If you forgot to seed the meet-up, still use texts and calls
for logistics.

Always keep in mind that the best way to establish a true emotional
connection is in person. If there is no connection, trust and rapport yet,
your texts may come off as annoying. Any text you send or phone call
you make should be focused on inviting them to meet-up at the location
you've seeded before.
 Here's an example:

"This Thursday, I'm headed to this great bar with a few friends,
thought you might enjoy the venue. Let me know if you're interested, and
I'll send you the details."

Some more ideas about places to invite them:

Find a place they'll truly enjoy or find interesting.

Find a place that you'll be comfortable enough to carry on a good
conversation.
Try to find a place that's outside the ordinary, a place they haven't
been before.

Now, what happens if you seeded a date and they flake?

Well you have to remember, people have lives, and no matter how
good you get at the art of attraction and seduction, you never know what
can happen in another person's life.

Okay, so let's say you set up a date, and over the week she sends you
a bunch of texts. How do you respond?

First, it depends on what she says, but your goal is to build a

connection in person, which means as little texting as possible.

If it's a flirty text, or someone recalling the events of the night you
met her, I suggest a very short response. Acknowledge them, but don't
have a conversation. Save it for the date.

If it's a no-nonsense text meaning shes contacting you about

logistics, work, or something important reply by text or call her to
discuss it.

 Chapter 16:
How To Tell If A Woman Likes You

When I was younger, one of the hardest things for me to see was
when a woman was attracted to me. Let me tell you a story

It was 4th of July and I was seventeen years old. I was hanging out
with two girls, which was about 50% of the total number of women I
knew back then. In addition, they were openly bisexual. Im not exactly
sure how I got them to visit me, but I did. We went to the beach to watch
the fireworks and laid out the blankets. They laid next to me, each
cuddling an opposite side of my skinny goth-kid body. It made me so
nervous that the second the fireworks went off, I rolled them off stood up
and began the walk home. They teased and touched me the whole way
home.

When we finally arrived at the house, they ran up to my bedroom,

and jumped on my very classy waterbed. They pulled me onto it and shut
off the lights, taking turns wrestling with me. I was so confused that I
stood up and flicked on the lights, and voiced my confusion: "Whyd you
guys shut the lights off?"

And then? This is where the night came to an end. It was only in
retrospect that I realized that Id had an opportunity to lose my virginity
in a threesome and I botched it.

Something like this may have happened to you already, but if not,
then hopefully I can help you prevent it, by helping you understand the
signs that women show when theyre attracted.

Heres the #1 rule of indicators of interest: Dont rely on just one

indicator to let you know if shes interested; look for at minimum three
signs.
 As you get more practice and your awareness grows youll start to
see that the indicators have their own weight; sometimes you really only
need one and sometimes you need quite a few. But for now, always look
for three.

The #2 rule: Dont make indicators up; look for legitimate ones and
be confident that they have meaning. For example: I think she looked at
me from across the room, is not a legit indicator, but if she beckoned
you with her eyes and youre sure of it, that would count. If you only
think she did, then dont count it.

Ive laid out a few signs to look for that can indicate that a woman is
interested in you. Remember, most of the time just one of these doesnt
mean shes attracted to you so look for a combination of the following:

She is hanging out with you

If you went on a date with you, its an indicator of interest. Im not
saying shes going to sleep with you, but be confident that if shes on a
date with you, that was her choice. She could have said, "No," or flaked,
but she didnt. Well done!

She is touching you

This can be confusing for many guys, as it was for me in my
previous story. Some girls touch because theyre kinesthetic people and
some touch when theyre attracted. Just think of it this way, if she
continues to increase the amount of touching she does since she first
became comfortable around you, then its very likely an indicator of
interest.

She compliments you

Compliments come in many forms. Theyre all indicators of interest.
Dont tease them about the compliment and dont self-deprecate. Take
the compliment graciously. A simple, "Thanks, I really appreciate that,"
can go a long way. If you want, use the compliment she gave you to
bridge into an identity story.

Body language
This is probably the hardest to decipher, and there are lessons on top
of lessons about different ways that body language can convey interest.
Right now, Im just going to give you a simple tip. If youre at a bar and
you meet a girl, start telling a story. In the middle, stop and say, "Hey, I
want to grab a drink, come with me for a moment and Ill finish the
story." If she says, "Yes" then shes interested and keeping conversation
going and possibly attracted to you. If she says "no" and decides to stay
with her friends, then you have more work to do.

Now the question is: what do I do once I have three indicators of

interest?

Its pretty simple. You show her that youre interested in her too, and
thats exactly what well get into in the next chapter.

The Friend Zone

Friend zone can feel like a form of rejection, and rejection feels
awful. You want to have a romantic relationship with someone, but that
person isnt interested and wants to be "just friends." Ive been there,
Ive felt it, I understand. Personally, I dont like the term friend zone. It
describes feelings of rejection, neglect and frustration that definitely
exist, and so I covered it in the book, but I would like to take a moment
to explain how the words themselves hurt the connection between one
person and another.

Ive met plenty of sad and frustrated guys whove said, then I
wasted a year in friend zone. Theyll suggest moving on and rejecting
the friendship because the romance didnt happen.
 If someone suggests that time spent in friend zone is wasted, then
theyre suggesting that time spent with the other person doing non-
romantic activities isnt valuable. Theyre suggesting that the point of the
interaction was love or sex and to only be friends is a bad thing.

Yes, the feeling of rejection sucks, but having a new friend should be
a reward in itself. Friends, both male and female, who are awesome, will
make you a more interesting and attractive person. More women will
come into your life because the group of friends you have is large, and
full of life.

I also meet guys who felt angry and entitled, the ones who think that
the woman did something wrong by not reciprocating their feelings.

If your desire to get out of friend zone is based on the feeling of

anger or that you are entitled, and you have hostility towards her for not
returning the feeling, then you need to change your attitude. No one is
obligated to return romantic or sexual interest;

Understanding that youre not entitled to any reciprocation, and

learning to empathize with people and cherish new friendships when
theyre not interested in you romantically will in the end help you to
become a better person and seducer. Youll have more friends, more
understanding, and in the end, youll be a more interesting person.
Rejection sucks, but the friend zone is not, in fact, a bad place.

How to avoid the friend zone from the start

To avoid the friend zone you have to have attraction, and then use
that attraction to take a bold romantic step forward when the opportunity
arises.

The guys who ended up in friend zone generally had bad timing. As
Ive mentioned before, seduction is about timing, not speed. If youre
impatient, shell become uncomfortable and you will fail. If youre too
hesitant shell start to lose the spark of attraction, and begin to see you as
a friend.

What this means is when youre in a position where you feel like
you should take a bold romantic step forward, youre better off taking the
risk and going for it rather than hesitating. At least shell know your
intentions, and let you know how she feels about you, and you wont be
stuck orbiting her in an endless cycle of stress, confusion, and desire,
wondering if shes into you or not.

Once you're in the friend zone, any move or declaration of love

wont likely make a difference. That's mostly how you find out you're in
the friend zone in the first place.

Getting out of the Friend Zone

Getting out of the friend zone requires you to disappear and come
back a new man.

The picture she painted of you and your identity that she decided
would make a better friend than lover is stuck. Fortunately, we arent
stuck with it.
The best way to get out of friend zone, is to disappear from her life
for a while and spend the time working on yourself.
Then come back new look, new style, new attitude, and a lot more
practice. The goal is to be noticeably better than before. Suddenly, you
become a slightly mysterious stranger that she used to know so well.
Why does this work?
Because you need time to change and improve, you need time to let
the guy who became a friend fade in her mind a little, so that eventually
you can return with a stronger version of your authentic identity.
 During this time away you should be working on making positive
changes to yourself have some adventures, get some practice, and
improve yourself, so you can come back a new man. .

If youre planning on going down this road, and the feeling of

rejection is that painful, maybe take some time to meet other people,
while you continue to improve yourself. You may find that there are
other ways to heal your wounded ego other than the pursuit of the
particular person.

To avoid the friend zone practice, practice, practice.

If you really want to avoid the friend zone then be sure to work on
the fundamental principles of seduction in an attempt create an exciting
romantic encounter. Effectively creating a romantic relationship instead
of a platonic one is just a matter of utilizing a lot of the same skills
youve already learned. Open, Attract, Connect, Seduce in that order.

 Chapter 17:
Passive Value Generators That
Amplify Your Attractiveness

"It is your work in life that is the ultimate seduction."

- Pablo Picasso

There are four traits that you can always improve that will continue
to benefit you as a master of attraction and seduction. Two of them are
conversational, and we've already covered the process for improving
them:

Key 1: Knowledge Based Value Generators (Chapter: Never

Run Out Of Things To Say)

Key 2: Wisdom-Based Value Generators (Chapter: Be

Interesting and Stay Authentic: The "Identity Storytelling"
Technique)

The other two traits we'll call "passive value generators". It's passive
because it works like passive income, or passive powers (if you're a
gamer). Passive value generators are traits that you work on over time,
but you don't have to actively use when you're talking to someone. They
just bring you value.

The two passive value generators are:

Appearance: What the people you're talking to think about you as a

result of your physical appearance, grooming, and style.

Reputation: What the people you're talking to think they know

about you. This includes your social circle, your wealth, your authority
and power, and popularity, friends, family, and reputation.
 Even though it seems easy, interestingly, one of the most difficult
changes I've had to ask my students to make were ones that had to do
with appearance. Suggesting they try on a pair of pants, shirt or jacket
was met with hesitation instead of eagerness to improve. Some guys
don't feel confident enough to wear something different than what they
are used to, while others don't want to spend money on clothes.

Appearance is important. Even if you go for a grungy look, it has

to have style. Women pay attention to those things. And your clothes say
a lot about you than you think. Clothes offer you a way to strategically
express yourself.

Work on your hygiene. Even if you are already super shaven and
clean, we can all improve the ways we take care of our bodies. This
means dealing with body hair, skin problems, odor, and general
cleanliness.

Brush and floss your teeth to avoid any bad breath it's a
complete turn-off when kissing. Keep them as white as you can.
See what you can do about fixing any problems with your skin.
Keep your body hair groomed I'm not just talking about beards
and moustaches; I'm talking about eyebrows, chest, back, and
genitals.
Experiment with your hair. (If your job allows for that.)
Wear deodorant, and possibly very little cologne.

Work on your voice. You're going to be using it all the time if

you're learning the art of attraction and seduction. A vocal coach can not
only help you fixing any problems you might have with your voice but
also learn how to project a deep, strong voice in a loud environment.

One of our coaches is a voice speech pathologist and works with our
students on fixing many vocal problems that they didn't even know they
had. If you've been quiet your whole life or have felt insecure about your
voice, it's probably worth a trip to one of these pathologists to see if it's a
medical condition or something that can be worked out through therapy.

Work on developing your own style. When women meet you, they
will automatically make assumptions about you based on your
appearance and your style. They don't have a choice; humans need to
categorize things. If I tell you about a friend of mine who wears all black,
has tattoos, and rides a motorcycle, you create a person in your head,
even though you've never met my friend.

Here are a few general tips for improving your own style:

Wear clothes that fit your body shape perfectly; not over-sized bags
that are comfortable.
Wear clothes that compliment your skin complexion. Different
colors work for different skin types. Find out which colors make you
look best.
Wear accessories and clothes that express something about you. Hat,
belt, shoes, shirts all communicate who you are.
Wear one thing that's interesting a conversation piece.
Don't wear too many accessories. Even though it will spark
conversation, it also will make you look like a Christmas tree. And
which woman wants to date a tree? (This can vary based on what
look you're going for.)
Don't wear sandals anywhere that's not the beach or the bathroom.
Stand out. If you're dressed just like all of your friends, it
communicates that you are just like them. Should she date you or
them? Be the exception.

If you're not happy with your current style, here are a few questions you
can ask yourself to help you improve your style:

What are you wearing when you leave the house?

 What do these clothes say about you?
What do other people (friends and family) think about your style?
How would you like to dress?
What impression would like to make on a woman you just met?
What kind of clothes give off that impression?

Work on your health and your body. The better you can make
yourself look, the more people will trust you. That sounds crazy and
shallow, but it's scientifically accurate. It's important to work on your
physical self. You'll have more energy and become more confident.
Getting physically fit is also a matter of consistency. Can you keep
yourself on a healthy diet? Can you keep yourself on a regular work out
regime? If you can, then you can become more fit.

Masculinity and Attraction

One question that students often have for me is, How do I become
more of an alpha male? Which really means, How do I act more like
what Ive been heard or taught it means to be a man?

Heres the thing: History is full of seducers that fell on the feminine
and masculine end of the spectrum, and everywhere in-between. As
youve read in previous chapters - there is no single identity that is
seductive to everyone.

To master the art of attraction and seduction, you must find the
correct balance of masculinity and femininity that is required to
seduce the person or people you are interacting with.

For example, if youre a naturally big masculine looking guy,

include some identity stories that add some femininity to your identity. If
youre a feminine looking guy, play it up, add some flare to your
wardrobe. This will keep you under the radar. Then through words and
actions show the people a more masculine side. There are an infinite
number of ways to play up masculinity and femininity, experiment and
see what works for your seductions.

Is There One True Key to Becoming the Most Interesting Guy in

the World?

The answer is adaptation. Explore yourself and adapt to your world.

Great seducers never stop learning; they push themselves to explore
more and more of the world. Each adventure they have leads to another.
It leads you to a deeper understanding of their reality. They know that the
more people they meet and the deeper they look within themselves the
greater the seducers they'll become.

Use your adventures to improve yourself. Spend time expanding

your knowledge of all things you come into contact with, and reflecting
upon how those things effect and change you. You'll find the more you
know about yourself, the more you'll know about the world, and vice
versa. If you stick to this idea of pushing yourself to explore, you will
undoubtedly be the most interesting guy in any room.

 Chapter 18:
Dating With Care and Empathy

"I don't conquer, I submit."

- Giacomo Casanova

Personal growth is about becoming the best person you can possibly
be, but change doesnt occur in a vacuum. There are people around you,
people with feelings, opinions, thoughts, and goals of their own.
Achieving your goals does not mean that you can be a self-serving shark,
cold and mindless of no one but yourself. It means you follow your
dreams and improve yourself to become the man you strive to be.

At the same time, while taking other peoples opinions into account,
no one should be ashamed of any efforts to improve, grow, and change
their lives. No one should prevent you from making you dream a reality.

If you want to learn how to attract your preferred romantic or sexual

partners, you must start doing things that are attractive to them. These
include being more interesting, confident, humorous, self-aware,
emphatic, authentic, positive, well-rounded, and spiritual. Ultimately, to
form relationships with others more successfully, you have to become a
better person.

Though the principles of attraction and seduction are inherently non-

sexual, they can be used romantically. After years of teaching this
material Ive found its necessary to share this many people are
unaware of what exactly consent is. For this reason, I want to include this
very important section:
 The 7 Rules of Care and Empathy

Consent is when every person feels safe and comfortable in any

including sexual scenario and wishes to do the same thing and let the
other person or people know.

Rule 1: Only an enthusiastic yes means yes. Everything else is no.

Consent means hearing the word "yes". Silence isnt consent.
"Maybe" isnt consent. "I guess so" isnt consent and if you hear no, you
stop whatever you are doing.

Rule 2: Talk about it.

Dont make assumptions about what someone is comfortable with in
general or sexually. Its up to both of you to learn each other's limits.
Thats why you ask questions like "Do you feel comfortable moving to
the next level?" Trust is key. Never assume you have a yes; its not up to
the other person to say "no"; its up to you to listen for the "yes".

Rule 3: Permission is non-negotiable.

Nothing youve already done gives you permission to do the next
thing. Youre kissing like mad; shes totally into it; that must mean its
okay to get your hand under her shirt. Wrong. Youve got your clothes
off and youre all over each other; that must mean its okay to have
intercourse. Wrong.

The truth is that, unless youre involved in a regular relationship and

have already worked out a set of rules, every time you go to a new
"level" youve got to get consent.

Some people might say, "That's not romantic. That totally breaks the
flow."

It depends on how you do it and how you bring it up. By both of you
knowing youre doing and what you want, therell be much more sexual
energy than if one person is getting off and the other is bored,
uncomfortable, or scared.

Rule 4: No one cant give consent if they are drunk or stoned.

If a person is too intoxicated to know what they are doing then they
cant give consent.

Rule 5: "No" means stop.

If a person decides in the middle of an intimate moment that they
dont want to continue all previous yess are null and void. Whatever you
were doing comes to an end, until youre both consenting again.

Rule 6: Date with empathy.

Every approach, every sexual encounter, every romance you are in,
do your best to ensure that the person not only doesnt regret the
experience but that it enriches their lives and is better off for having had
it.

Rule 7: Be safe and compassionate: Safe sex is mandatory.

However, there is no such thing as safe love. It is a risk of the heart. But
it is well worth the reward.

 Chapter 19:
The First Kiss and the "Romantic Window" Technique

In romantic encounters, going for the kiss is a big moment. Most

guys feel like its the riskiest move next to actually making the approach,
because they don't know if she is ready to be kissed. Youre putting
yourself on the line hoping that youve done everything right up to this
moment. How do you make sure your potential partner is going to want
to kiss you back?

The "Go for it" Checklist:

Start with finding a location where you both feel comfortable. This is
tricky, because depending on who youre with it could be anywhere. The
best thing to do is look at whats happened so far, and decide where the
woman youre with might be comfortable. Try not to be in a
bottlenecked portion of a bar, where lots of people are pushing through.
Find somewhere comfortable for the two of you.

Next, if youre going for the kiss, run through this checklist in your
head:
1. Did your potential partner show interest in you?
o If no, then keep working on building value until you receive
indication that theyre interested.
2. Did you remember to compliment her about something once she
showed interest?
o If no, then find something to compliment her on refer to
the chapter on connection.
3. Are you somewhere comfortable?
o If no, then find a place. You may have to change venues
to do this.

If you answered yes to the above questions, then theres a good

chance that going for the kiss will work out for the two of you. Go for it,
but in the right way.
 Heightening the Moment and Dissolving Kiss Anxiety

Every relationship is a story, and every story has its high points and
its low points. The first kiss should be one of the major high points of
your seductive story. When you go for the kiss, try saying or doing
something that will heighten the moment.

At the last attraction and seduction boot camp I taught in DC, we had
a student who approached a girl he was interested in and within a twenty-
minute period, he was making out with her on the dance floor. I asked
him what it was that let him know it was time to go for the kiss, and he
told us that the most important moment was right before the kiss. He said
something to her while they were dancing. He said, "Youre an amazing
person. I have to do this or Ill feel stupid for not trying." Then he went
for the kiss.

What I loved about this was that he could have just gone for it. The
words he said were not what made her want to kiss him. He had made
himself attractive by being a great conversationalist, by providing value,
and helping her to have a great time. The words he said helped make the
moment more memorable something both of them will remember. Its
more than a kiss; its a moment of romance.

In addition, saying those words meant he couldnt turn back. Once he

said them, he had to go for the kiss; they helped him get over a moment
of anxiety that normally would have held him back. Going for the kiss is
a risk, its going to show you exactly how seductive you think you are,
this frightens a lot of guys; frightens them so much, that they never go
for the kiss, and they fail to experience what could have been.

Kiss-Amplification-Technique: The technique is pretty simple but

extremely effective: Before youre going to go for the kiss say
something bold. Make it romantic and exciting, even sexual. It will help
give you the confidence to go for the kiss and will hopefully create a
memorable and romantic moment for the two of you.

The "Romantic Window" Technique

This technique will take your seduction from platonic to romantic. It

will lower your anxiety and it will spice up your seductions with
romance.

I want to teach you today how to create a moment that she can brag
about to her friends something romantic that shows her how awesome
she is and proves to her how awesome you are.

Step 1. Seeding for the Kiss

Seeding is a technique where a specific topic/venue is brought up but

not acted upon until a later part in conversation. The reason we seed is to
introduce an idea before asking them to act on it, so that later when we
ask them to act on it, they have actually thought about it and want to
move forward with it (or not then you have to back off).

For example, you can seed a date by bringing up a venue that you'd
be interested in visiting with your potential date. You tell a story about
the place while you're building attraction, but don't invite her. Then you
continue on with your seduction. When you feel like she's attracted and
you're ready to ask her out, you bring that place up again and ask her if
she'd like to accompany you.

You can seed a personality exercise like "The Cube", which is

generally done in isolation, by using the skydiving or the ring finger
routine early in the interaction and motioning that there's another routine
that's much more in-depth and serious, but you'd need a quieter place to
play. Then once you feel like it's appropriate timing to isolate you say,
"the couch opened up, let's sit down and I'll show you that psychology
exercise I mentioned before."

IMPORTANT: For this technique, the seed will happen after we've
built attraction, when we're showing her interest (the connect phase).

Step 2. How to Qualify Properly

For starters, look for three non-physical traits that you actually like
about the girl you're interested in. After you've built attraction through
Identity Storytelling, Demonstrations of Value, and Disqualification and
have received the appropriate amount of Indicators of Interest it's time
to let her know that you appreciate these three qualities. This requires:

1. That you name the quality. Example: "You know, I really

appreciate how adventurous you are."
2. That you tell them why the quality is important to
you personally. Example: "I try to live life like I'm in a
storybook taking chances and doing the unexpected.
Meeting someone with a similar quality is a breath of fresh
air."
3. You end the qualifier with a specific ending. Example: "I
really appreciate that. Thanks for being awesome."

Tips: These are not done in rapid-fire succession. They are done
throughout the seduction, but more regularly before the first kiss and
always after you've built some attraction. In addition to non-physical
qualities, you can also hint at something they aspire to be, or aspire to
obtain in the future, or in some sort of untapped potential you see in
them. Sometimes you can choose a physical quality, but it has to be
unique and be supported by a very specific identity story.

Step 3. The ABC of the "First Kiss"

 a) A great kiss generally needs a conducive environment. This could
be anywhere, and generally depends on the seduction. Yeah, sure,
sometimes a great kiss can happen in the middle of a mosh pit. But here
are a few common areas for those of you who are still learning the
basics:

On a couch alone with her.

On a couch or chair with other people, if she's showing an
exceptional amount of interest leaning or sitting on you.
At a table together when you're next to each other.
At your place, her place or a private room somewhere.

b) Choose one of the three qualities you liked about her and told her
about using the previous seeding method.

c) Let her quality be the attractor.

Example: "That adventurous nature of yours is way too

attractive. Don't you think that if we don't kiss right now we're going to
be missing out on one of the biggest parts of this story?" Pause, look into
her eyes and wait for her to say 'yes', lean in to kiss you, or just pull you
closer.

Once again, pause, and gauge her response. Your job is to make her
want to kiss you. And if she wants to, she will let you know. The key
mistake guys make is rushing to the finish line. The kind of seduction
that will drive a woman wild with desire is when she wants something
but doesn't have it yet. So be the prize, and play with this physical
tension rather than being in a rush to resolve it.

What happens if I time everything wrong and shes not interested in

kissing me?
 Imagine you've met a woman youre attracted to, and you've
followed the step-by-step seductive method: You start a conversation
with an opinion opener (like the Drunk-I-Love-You Opener), then you
build value with some active disinterest and a few identity stories. She
gives you some indicators that she's interested, so you let her know
you're interested too. Now you need to close. So you decide to go in for a
kiss, but there's a problem. As you lean in for the kiss, she turns her
head and you feel rejected.

What to do now that you've missed the kiss, and ended up with a
mouthful of cheek?

In this case, it's not about what you should do; rather, it's about what
you shouldnt do:

Don't say something cheesy like, "Well, I didn't say you could kiss
me." She just denied you a kiss; don't you think she knows you
wanted to kiss her?

Don't completely change your attitude. Imagine how that looks to

her. What do you think she assumes about someone who starts acting
mopey or awkward because they didn't get to make-out?

Don't give up on her. Just take a step back and realize you probably
misread an indicator of interest, or didn't build enough value. It's an
indicator that not enough attraction or comfort was built. Ask
yourself:

o What steps can you take to build more attraction?

o What can you do to make her more comfortable?

Do not get angry. A failed seduction is not her fault; it's yours.
Getting angry only will make you look desperate, horny or
frustrated. Youre not entitled to any form or romantic or sexual
reciprocation, no one is.
 How to Invite a Woman to Your Home

Bringing a woman back to your place in a way that she feels

comfortable and intrigued is very similar to inviting her on a date you
use the seeding technique described previously. Here's a simple method
for using seeding to make the move back to your place:

1. Seed your home, just like youd seed a date. During conversation,
bring up an activity or an object that you'd need to go home to
participate in or see. Tell her about it, but don't invite her back. Do
this early on in the date.
2. When you're going to leave the final venue say, "I want to show
you that [activity or object]. Let's swing by and check it out."
3. Then add a time constraint, "You can only come over for a few
minutes. I have to be up for work in the morning."
4. Possible outcomes:
If she says, yes. Well done!
If she says, no or ignores the suggestion, then you need to
work on building more value or attraction. Don't beg her to
come back or complain when she doesn't want to it will
make you look impatient and desperate. Try setting up another
date.
If she seems like she wants to come back, but really does have
some obligation in the morning, drop the idea of bringing her
home that night, and set up another date.

And no matter how the rest of your encounter goes remember, it

takes time to learn. You're going to make experience what feels like
failures, so don't be too hard on yourself. Just make sure that you keep
practicing. Eventually, you'll learn to read all the signs and get over these
hurdles. Everyone I know who's put in the time and had the tenacity to
push themselves when things go poorly have found success.

 Chapter 20:
Comfort, Intimacy And The "Love Roadmap"

"The biggest risk is not taking any risk... In a world that's changing
really quickly, the only strategy that is
guaranteed to fail is not taking risks."
- Mark Zuckerberg

Throughout a romance, the woman must feel safe and comfortable

with you, both verbally and physically. Many men get wrapped up in the
physical half. They ask themselves, "How do I make it so that she'll let
me touch her?" or "How can I get her to want to touch me?" but touching
and being touched isnt the whole picture.

As you become intimate with a woman, the level of comfort slowly

escalates. And because it's a delicate, vulnerable new territory, trust and
respect are paramount.

Trust is gained by taking small steps that build on one another. To be

comfortable around someone you need to trust them in some way, and so
your goal is to continuously build trust. As trust builds, so does comfort.

The comfort building process starts at the beginning of the

interaction. She evaluates, "Can I trust this stranger and do I want to
continue talking to him?"

One sign that an interaction is going well is when she begins to take
the next step and push things forward to the next level. Take special note
when she does something verbal or physical that shows you your levels
of intimacy are escalating. Maybe she leans into you while talking,
presses her knee up against yours while you sit together, holds onto your
arm when you're standing together any of these are signs that she's
more trusting and more comfortable with you than earlier in the
interaction. Be confident that things are going well.
 IMPORTANT: If you try to rush things, you'll make her
uncomfortable, and lose her trust. Have patience, because guys who are
impatient look horny and desperate.

That said, even if she isn't making advances, she still might be
interested. Everyone is different, and will show romantic interest in
different ways. As you continue your practice, you will find that some
women will be more aggressive, and others will be passive. It's up to you
to see what's going on by developing a well-calibrated social awareness.

You can check her comfort levels with slowly escalating techniques.
Initially they are minor and insignificant things, each becoming
increasingly substantial and involved as trust and comfort is built. With
any comfort escalation technique, you're looking for one of three
outcomes:

1. Will she do more for me than she would before?

2. Will she want me do more with her than before?

3. Am I making her uncomfortable? If so, stop what you're doing

and take a step back romantically. If you persist in making her
uncomfortable, you'll likely lose her trust and the possibility of a
romantic connection.

Here are some examples of verbal comfort escalation checks:

"Do you like Thai Food? I can't hang out with people who aren't
adventurous with food and don't try new things in life."

Did she change her opinion or makes an excuse to win you over?
If yes, great, you're doing well.
If no, keep working on building attraction.
 "Can you hold my drink for a second? Thanks, you're awesome and
conveniently located."

Did she hold your drink for you?

If yes, great, you're doing well.
If no, you need to build more comfort and attraction.

"This place is supposed to have an amazing rooftop. Come upstairs

with me, you can stretch your legs and keep me safe from drunken
cougars on the prowl."

Did she come up to the rooftop?

If yes, great, you're doing very well.
If no, you need to build more comfort.

Now let's take a look at a few techniques that check her comfort
levels in a physical way:

As you laugh together, you briefly touch her arm and gauge her
response. If she moves away from you, she's not attracted or
comfortable.

When moving to a new area, you reach out to see if she takes
your hand. She's already going with you, which is great, but if
she doesn't take your hand, she's likely uncomfortable with your
touch. Build more attraction.

You give her a warm embrace, noting carefully how she hugs
you back. If she doesnt hug you back, you need to build more
comfort and attraction.

If at any time she seems uncomfortable with one of your advances,

that is a clear sign you need to take a step back. Don't continue to
escalate; instead build more attraction and trust, by using routines, active
disinterest, and identity storytelling until you get more indicators she is
interested. As so often is the case, timing is everything.

Buyer's Remorse

Have you ever regretted a purchase? Have you had fear or a sense of
guilt that you made a poor purchasing decision? If so, then you've
experienced what's called buyer's remorse.

Buyer's remorse is not specific to purchases; it's also something that

can happen in dating and intimacy. Specifically if the woman ends up
with a feeling of unmet expectations that she gave part of herself away
and did not get what she wanted or very little in return.

This almost always happens when she had or has different

expectations than you.

Avoiding Buyer's Remorse

Make sure both of you are on the same page. Also, read the chapter
on Dating with Care and Empathy towards the end of the book.
Understand what it is and how it works, and follow those rules when
you're getting into a relationship or intimate.

Next, if she wants to get intimate with you, make sure to talk with
her about future concerns in a caring way:

"Before we go any further, I just wanted to check in with you that

tomorrow morning, when we wake up together, we both feel really good
with this."

Or you put her in the driver seat by saying:

 "We don't have to have sex. I'm happy just wanting to wake up next
to you tomorrow."

The key is to be caring, empathetic and patient. Even if she verbally

and physically leads you to sleeping with you, it's a good idea to check in
with her. The more connected partners are with each other, the more
aligned their expectations are, the better the sex will be.

Give more than you take, enrich her life with great experiences,
including and specifically during sex. This means spending some time
getting to know her body. Use foreplay to build a roadmap of her
erogenous zones. Below I'm going to share my "Love Roadmap" that you
can use to help you with foreplay, and mutual sexual exploration.

The first thing you should remember about having good sex is that
great sexual partners pay attention to each other's needs and
communicate well. Talking during sex? Yes, my friend. And if you do it
the right way it will be a big turn on.

Communicate and respond with words and body. For instance, if she
suddenly wants to roll you over and kiss you forget about the roadmap
and let her do that. If she wants to go down on you, decide if that's what
you want and go for it or talk with her about what you want. Just pay
attention and communicate. That said, here's something fun to try
enjoy!

The Love Roadmap

Start by kissing for a while.

After a comfortable amount of time, take her hand and say, "I want
to kiss all the parts of your body that others forget to kiss. If you feel
uncomfortable tell me to stop and I will."
Kiss the inside of her wrist.
 Pause and look up, reassuring her that you'll stop if she feels
uncomfortable. Check in with "How does this feel?"
Kiss further down the wrist, and keep kissing until you get to the
shoulder.
When you get to the bra strap (if shes wearing one) pull the strap
down to her shoulder and kiss the place on her body where it was
before you pulled it down. The release of tension from the bra, and
then the following kisses will feel very good. Note: This technique
can also be used for kissing around the panty line. Push the panty
down, place a little kiss along the hip, then return the panties to their
first position.
After kissing, put the bra strap back. Continue kissing her with this
technique for a while. She might smirk, because she is getting more
excited and maybe even wants you to take the bra off. But don't.

At this point you have a few choices:

From here you place little kisses along her back and continue
with the collar bone. You can caress the back of her neck, you
can lightly pull her hair, or you can go back to making out.
Whatever you do, eventually you want to return to the limbs you
havent kissed. Note: Don't touch or reach for her breasts, her
butt, or between her legs. The goal is to kiss all the non-sexual
places.
As you explore her limbs, experiment with light kisses, hard
kisses, little bites, licks, and words. You're trying to get a sense
of what she likes before you start getting more intimate. Let her
show you what she likes and pay attention to what she does.
So, if you give her a light lick and she moans, that's great. If you
bite a little and she says, "Softer," then you'll know to be a little
less rough. Note: Playing this game will get more exciting the
more you undress each other.
 If at any point, there is any interruption or disturbance (phone
rings, running out of time, too public of a place, etc.), either wait
it out and get back to arousing her again, bounce to a more quiet
and romantic place, or just hang out and appreciate your
togetherness. There will be many other exciting moments and
places in the future.
If you've played this exploration game right, then you both
should be mostly undressed and fairly aroused. She might take
over and initiate the next level of intimacy. Make it a game
where you both experiment with fingering, oral sex, and more
touching and kissing.
If everything goes right, she and you are both aroused, confident
and comfortable, then making love will be a natural smooth
transition. Use protection, and have fun both of you!

Good Luck!

 Chapter 21:
Tips For Dating Apps And Dating Websites

Online dating and dating apps are everywhere. They've totally

changed the name of the game when it comes to meeting and attracting
high-quality women. You can do it in your spare time, on the train to
work, or even when you're on a boring date.

Not that I would ever suggest you do such a thing.

Still, just like talking to girls out at bars and clubs, it's important for
you to approach, flirt and make a connection in a skillful manner. Do you
find that you're not making the connections you want? Do you have a
low percentage of women responding to what you have to say on online
dating sites?

There's a good chance youre making one or more of the most

common mistakes in online dating. By eliminating just one of these, you
can see significant increases in your batting average when it comes to
online dating. That said, while there is a bigger pool available, the rules
are not different, the same principles apply and the 4-Step System works
like a charm.

Let's start with the main challenge: Almost no woman will ever meet
a random stranger, yet the profile of apps and websites gives you only a
very limited way to convey your true identity. So your goal is to super-
communicate in a condensed form and share your qualities via pictures
and text and message.

Where are the online routines?

 There are countless online dating and social networking sites. And
new apps become popular overnight, then lose out the next day a new e-
dating trend.
This is why its important to remember that the principles of
attraction and seduction stay the same even though the techniques might
change.
Think about it this way. Each new app or site requires a modification
of your techniques and routines but your identity stays the same. This is
why I will give you some pointers to help you out when making contact.

The principle of starting a conversation is to make the person or

group feel comfortable. If you send them a message that makes them
uncomfortable its likely to fail.
When youre contacting a woman on a dating app or website, youre
already conveying interest by contacting her. Which means that there
is no way that you "just wanted to say hi". In fact, if youre on a
dating site, its assumed that youre looking for a date. So, if you
contact a woman, its reasonable to expect that she thinks youre
looking to date her. So what do you say?
Make an observation about something you find interesting about her
hobbies, her life etc. that is non-sexual.
Point out a common interest and ask her opinion about a question
that is related to that topic.
Regarding flirting: When online, and just like in real life, teasing can
come off as hitting on someone if its done without context. First get
to know her a bit before you start flirting.

And finally: When you meet up explore why you were interested in
meeting up rather than denying any interest in the first place, as a form of
active disinterest.

Bad Profile Pictures

Women aren't quite the visual creatures that men are. That said, you
need to have good pictures on your profile. You don't have to be the best-
looking guy on a website or app to get the best-looking girl to go on a
date with you. In fact, it's not so much what you look like physically in
your photo as much as what kind of guy you look like.

You want to look like a fun-loving, outgoing type of guy she's going
to want to spend time with. Your conversations should also be moving
toward this. But just like your attraction to her starts with a photo, so
does her attraction to you. Be the one that's going to get her interested in
who you are, wanting to know more and wanting to spend time with you.

Not Revealing Enough about Yourself

There are two parallel mistakes you can make when crafting your
online profile. The first is being overly secretive about yourself, or not
elaborating enough about who you are.

Think about it: On the one hand, if you dont reveal anything about
yourself, you can look sketchy or even fake. However, if you reveal a
little bit, but not very much or not any of the more interesting parts of
your life, anyway shes not going to have any reason to respond. No
matter how awesome the pictures of you look, women are going to want
to know what sets you apart from other guys before they respond to your
message.

Revealing Too Much About Yourself

And then theres the parallel mistake the other side of the coin.
Sometimes guys reveal too much about themselves. They overshare. In
particular, they come off as bitter, talk too much about exes or have a
long list of things women must have or must not have.

Its OK to have standards, but it's good to keep things positive on a

dating website. Remember that you want to put your best foot forward on
dating profiles. Don't muddy the waters with negativity or bitterness.
 Building a profile means presenting the best part of yourself that you
can. Here are a few things you can try:

Put up no more than three pictures.

One picture with an animal has been statistically proven to work
well for apps and online dating sites.
Dont put up pictures where youre with exes or other women
you're sleeping with.
Put up one picture that show youre participating in something
like travel, a hobby, or a vacation.
Use proper grammar and punctuation.
Looks are important for online dating choose photos where
you're well-groomed or well-dressed if possible.
If there's a text portion of your profile, write something that will
make it easy and fun for them to contact you.
o "Just looking for a Netflix password."
o "Trying to find someone with a cool dog/cat I can hang out
with."
o "Looking for the missing half of my broken amulet."

Making contact, setting up the date:

You need to write a solid introduction message to grab her attention.
You know that. However, how do you do that? One of the main ways is
to read her profile. Nothing is going to irritate a woman more than
sending her off a message without having read her profile. She put up a
profile with the things she wants you to know about her before you send
off an email. Let her know that you took the time to read her profile and
what about it made you want to contact her.

You have two goals in this order: establish contact and then
transition to a date in the real world.

Don't start with something sexual; start with something non-

sexual from their profile or photos.
 Recognize that people jump onto and off of dating sites fairly
rapidly, so if someone doesn't get back to you, move on the
person you contacted is likely not even on the site.

If you know they're on the site and they don't get back to you,
move on. They're probably not interested, or they simply don't
check the site often.

Set up dates for locations that are safe and comfortable nothing
where she feels like she'll be trapped there with you.

Don't get upset and send negative messages if the girl doesn't
like something you said, or doesn't want to go out with you.
Learn from your mistakes and move on.

Mistake to avoid: Get to know her in person, not online

There's such a thing as spending too much time getting to know
women on a dating website. The point of a dating website isn't getting to
know her through endless e-conversation. After all, they're called "dating
sites" for a reason. What you want to do is get her to go on a date with
you. So rather than spending lots of time chit chatting about what was on
television last night, spend your time trying to move her toward saying
yes to going on a date with you.

Mistake to avoid: Poor Grammar

It might not seem like a big deal, but it is. You should proofread your
profile. Look for simple grammar and spelling mistakes. A lot of women
won't respond to anything you have to say if you say it with poor
grammar. Just spending a few minutes here can make a big difference in
terms of both the number and the quality of women you have responding
and contacting you in the first place.

 Chapter 22:
Advanced Text Game And Avoiding Flaking

It doesn't matter if you met her out at a bar or on a dating website or

dating apps: Texting is going to happen, and youll want to get it right.

Heres what you need to know:

Texting is great for logistics, or solving immediate problems.

Texting does not create true attraction or connection. That happens in
person. Which is why most texting is unnecessary flare. In fact, the
more texts you send the more likely it is that youll cause a problem
rather than support your seduction. Recognize that if you follow the
steps leading up to a properly seeded date, all you need to do is send
where and when youll meet, and solve any incidental problems
regarding the date, everything else is extra.
People will go out of their way to be around someone theyre
interested in, that means you should be working on you in-person
skills, and always practicing seeding dates. If they flake without
rescheduling, you need to work on your value building steps.
Most non-logistical/problem solving texts are for validation on the
part of the insecure would-be seducer. Never send a text for the sole
purpose of getting a response. Be confident that if youve seeded a
date that she agreed to, youre doing just fine. Ask yourself, what is
the purpose of this text in my overall seduction? if it doesnt have
one, then dont send it.
Improve your grammar and spelling, and youll have fewer
communication problems.

Texting problems

I have talked to literally tens of thousands of men through the

Stylelife Academy. As such, we hear a number of problems that guys
have when it comes to texting. You might not be experiencing all of
these, but we'd be amazed if you werent dealing with at least some of
them.

You Don't Know when to text

We believe there's a very simple solution to this: It all comes
down to what happens in person, because that where attraction and
romantic connection happens. Imagine, your celebrity crush gave you her
number and started texting you all the time, or she invited you out on a
date but rarely returned your texts. In either case, would you still want to
date them? Im betting its very likely you would.

Same thing goes for women; if the guy is interesting enough theyll go
out of their way to hang out with you. Do you think shed go out of her
way to hang out with her celebrity crush? Do you think that if he texted
too much, or barely texted at all, that shed no longer want to hang out
with him? I doubt it.

Refine your in-person skills and the texting will become less and less
of a problem.

You Don't Know How to Set Up a Date

The point of texting isn't more texting it's getting her off the phone
and into your presence, preferably on a date that she won't soon forget.
Unfortunately, a lot of guys focus too much on their "text game" that
they never make the transition from texting to up close and in person.

Remember to keep your eyes on the prize. The prize is not another
text from her it's a date that's going to bring the two of you closer than
texting ever will. Flirt with her, but avoid chit chatting and always be
thinking about how you're moving toward the date.
 Practice seeding dates, and use texts to move towards those dates.
You shouldnt have to convince someone to hang out with you over the
phone.

Your Text Dates Always Flake

Are you the guy who gets dates but is always having them cancel?
Even worse, do you have dates who don't show up? Sure, you get her to
agree to a date, but the date itself never seems to materialize. What are
you doing wrong?

There are four major possibilities:

1. Youre not building enough value: This means you need to work
on building value through identity stories, routines, and active
disinterest until you receive a few indicators of romantic interest,
before moving on.
2. Youre not showing interest: Remember, you dont show interest
until shes interested in you. If youre sure you have interest,
make sure youre returning the interest, before you set up the
date or get the phone number.
3. You made her uncomfortable, and she gave you the number just
to get you to go away. You will know this is the case if youre
getting numbers very early in the interaction and theyre always
flaking. This means you have to go all the way back to working
on starting conversations, thats where the root of the problem is,
they were made to feel uncomfortable from the start.
4. Shes actually busy. People have lives, sometimes they dont
include you. If youre seeing a pattern, where lots of women are
flaking on you then refer to possibilities one and two.

Your Texting Makes Her Uncomfortable

There are the guys who come on too strong. The guys who have
women responding at first. But then those responses become "K" and
other signs that youre being awkward, creepy or otherwise making her
uncomfortable. That's a bummer, and it can be hard for men to be honest
with themselves that thats what they're doing. But you have to level with
yourself if you're going to make any improvement.

What you need to do is start paying more attention to her; paying

more attention to what she's into and what she's not into. When in doubt,
take it down a peg. Start by stripping your texts of vulgar language, or
anything else that is inappropriate.

What Text Messaging is not

1. Text messaging is not a way to build attraction. There is no
magical text you can send her that will make her fall in love (or
lust) with you. Do not sit there for hours, slaving over just the
perfect sentence. You are not English metaphysical poet Andrew
Marvell penning the classic poem "To His Coy Mistress". Your
text will not live forever in the annals of fine literature. If you
catch yourself wondering, "What will make her like me?" then
just stop. Youre texting for the wrong reasons.
2. Text messaging is also not for building a connection. Don't get
into sweet chit-chat or just kind of checking in because it reduces
her desire to see you in person. "What are you doing?" or "How's
work?" are questions that are like a pressure release valve. She
can answer them and you lose the momentum, as opposed to
having that pressure build during the day where she's just dying
to tell you in person.
3. Text messaging is not for escalation in a relationship. It is only
for maintenance.

What Text Messaging Is

Text messaging is a way to confirm details of a date that you've
already seeded when you saw the woman in person. It's all about
logistics. For example, you could text, "We're going to that permit-only
hiking path this weekend. Why don't you come along?" Or, if you
already have set up the date, the text can confirm and remind her.
 If you're texting about a date, make sure it's something fun,
exciting, and different. A text message with an offer to go on a secret
underground tour of Hollywood studios is going to elicit a very different
response than a text message offering a dinner and a movie.

If you mention a date in a text message and the woman responds,

"I dunno" or "Im busy" or "Maybe my friends and I will be out the same
evening" then you need to generate more interest.

Be Careful of Text Messaging Limitations

Remember, texting does not have emotional components of eye
contact, vocal tonalities, facial expressions, or hand gestures, so it's
harder to seed (or sell) a meet up in text than in person. That's why you
should seed the adventure when you're in her physical presence and then
just use the text to follow up.

Inside jokes and connection enhancer

There is an element to text messaging that sometimes makes it
easier to flirt for shy people. So in some ways, you can be more teasing,
more joking in a text. Personally, I think that this technique should be
used after youve had a good first date, and that person is excited to see
you again.

Text messages are also great ways to follow up on an inside joke

that you might have established when you met the woman. Let's say you
both talked about your addiction to chocolate milkshakes. You could text
her and say, "Need an intervention for those shakes lately?" Use the
inside joke you shared in her presence and you can conjure up those
same emotions from a distance with a well-placed text message, then use
it as a spring-board into another meet-up.

Emoticons and Acronyms: To Use Them or Not

There are mixed prescriptions for using emoticons in social text
messaging. Many seducers abhor emoticons, preferring to position
themselves as more suave and sophisticated. It's hard to imagine James
Bond sending a smiley face and a LOL to a woman. That said, there are
times and places where they come in handy. You have to decide whats
right for that person, in their specific seduction.

Here are some basic guidelines:

1. Use as few acronyms and emoticons as possible.
2. Recognize that your grammar and spelling are more important
than the strategic use of emoticons and acronyms.
3. Reread your texts before you send them; you have all the time in
the world. Ask yourself: do I really need to use an emoticon? If
so, why are you using it and is there a better way to
communicate the same thing?

The Texting Gameplan: The Steps

Let's say you met a woman at a bar on Friday night. You had a
good time and ran The Cube cold reading routine on her. And you seeded
this great sushi restaurant that only you and your friends know about.
Now, it's a day or two later and you want to follow up. Here's the plan:

Step 1: Start with a reminder of the good feelings you had

together. For example, if you ran The Cube and she enjoyed it, you could
text "Hey, hows your big cube doing" Use a nickname or some term
you might have shared.
Step 2: In the same text, refer to the date that youve already
seeded. Your text could be:

"Hey, hows your big cube doing? Heres the info for the place were
going to on [day of the date]. [Logistical Info].

The Texting Gameplan: The Pacing Myth

Many men wonder, "How long should I wait in texting?" That
common query applies to phone calls as well.
 There are a lot of theories about when and how often to text. For
example, texting at her pace or only texting two days after getting her
phone number. From personal experience, and through experiments with
students all over the world, Ive found none of this to be true or
particularly valuable.

Just keep this in mind: people will go out of their way to hang out
with someone theyre interested in. Refine your in-person skills and the
texting will become less and less important. It will become a way to
communicate exactly when and where youre going to meet up, rather
than the confusing purgatorial space between the meet up and the date,
where many guys imagine they are trapped.

Most guys over-text women theyve just texted as a way to get a

momentary feeling of validation. Shes paying attention to me, is the
thought or feeling that they desire. Before you send a text, take a breath
and think about if it really needs to be sent. In my opinion, it most likely
doesnt, unless its a logistical text, or a problem that needs a response to
be resolved.

If youre doing something long distance, or theres a very long space

of time between the initial meet-up and the date. Under these
circumstances, use texts to make plans to talk on the phone or over
Skype. This will give you more of an opportunity to connect with that
person while youre separated.

Last thing on pacing, I recognize that some guys really like texting.
Im not exactly sure what the appeal is, but some guys love it. If youre
one of those guys just recognize its not necessary, its flare. Make the
seduction the kind of seduction that excites you and the person youre
trying to be with. Just be careful not to over-text, be aware that its easy
to misinterpret texts, and that at the end of the day its what you do in
person that will have the largest impact.
 The Bottom Line on Texting
Sending text messages can be fun and flirty. But don't put too
much into it. There is nothing you're going to tap out on your iPhone that
is going to make her fall in love with you. When you put too much
pressure on a text message, that's when it gets frustrating. Instead, just
have fun.

Rules for Texting for Maximum Success

Rule 1: Do Not Text to Avoid a Phone Conversation

Texting isn't meant to be used as a tool to avoid phone conversations.
Speaking to a woman on the phone has more seduction potential than a
text message (just like seeing her in person has more seduction potential
than a phone call).

If you recently opened, attracted and seeded a date with a woman,

your next goal is to meet up with her. The chances of setting this up with
her via text message are slimmer than via phone conversation and setting
it up over the phone are slimmer than seeding a date when you initially
met. Bottom line: Practice seeding!

Rule 2: Bring Value When Texting

Just like you should bring value for your wingman, you should apply
the same philosophy to your text message game. Low-value or no-value
texts are attempts to leech value from the woman, such as: "Whats up?"
or "What are you doing tonight?" or "When can I see you again?" These
types of texts will get you nowhere because they make you seem needy,
invoke no positive emotion in the woman and display nothing high-value
about you.

When I text a woman in the early stages of seduction, its either to

send logistical information about a date or to solve a problem. For
instance, if we had a conversation about a book and at the time I couldnt
remember it, I might send her a text that says, Hey, that book was
called: [book title].

Rule 3: Never Over-Text

She might be the only thing on your mind at the moment, but you
don't want her to know that yet. If you come off as too needy, you'll lose
her. Text once and only once until you get a reply. After a reply you can
text back. If she doesn't respond to your text, then wait at least 24 hours
before re-texting her.

Allow time in between your replies when in a text conversation.

Don't give her the impression that her text message conversation is the
most important thing happening for you. Remember that being non-
needy and scarce is attractive.

Bonus Tip: A Quick Route to Familiarity

After getting her number, immediately send a text while you're still
standing right next to her, it creates a humorous moment between the two
of you and helps make you more familiar to her:

"You have my number now, but you are only allowed to call me once
per day."

"You have to stop staring at me, its making you look desperate.

If, after texting her, shell save your number and your name, take that
as a definite indicator of interest. More importantly, when you call her
later, your phone number will pop up and be familiar to her. This makes
her more likely to answer. That said, you should still be practicing
seeding, and working on refining the steps leading up to getting the
phone number.

 Chapter 23:
Creating a Seductive Atmosphere

"A house is not a home unless it contains food and fire for the mind
as well as the body." - Benjamin Franklin

Eventually, you're going to be bringing women back to your home.

That means you should spend some time thinking about how to set up
your place and make it a seductive and attractive atmosphere. Your
home, like your clothing, is an extension of your identity. That means
your home says something about you to anyone who enters it.

When you are thinking about setting up a seductive atmosphere for

your home start by paying attention to all five senses: What does it look
like? What does it smell like? What kinds of food and drink do you have
to share? How does it feel to be in your home? What kinds of music or
sounds do you share in your home?

Here is a checklist of details for you:

What exactly do you have in your house and what does it say about
you? The key is to have it stuffed with conversation starters.
Pictures, objects or art that makes her curious enough to ask you
about it. That way it will give you an opportunity to shine. Don't put
anything on your walls or on a visible shelf that you cant talk about
with an identity story. Pieces of art, books, posters, photographs and
everything else should have a story that reveals something about you.
Lighting is more important than the size of the room. Light creates
atmosphere. Is your lighting sexy or oppressive? If you have bright
florescent light, it's not sexy. You can install spotlights that highlight
your conversation-starter items, dimmer switches to control
brightness or simply use lamps to give the atmosphere a more
comfortable look.
 Have you done anything interesting with the paint or wallpaper?
Using warm accent colors can give a room a very cozy feeling. If
not, maybe consider it.
Is your place clean? If not, youll need to put some time in cleaning
it or hire someone to come by.
Do you have anything interesting to eat or drink in your house?
Everyone loves good food. A simple thing is to cut up a fruit plate
with honey something delicious and easy to share with a potential
lover. I also suggest rare types of drinks that you can offer like mead,
a special cocktail, a rare wine, or something else you wouldn't find in
the average guy's house.
What does your house smell like? There are a lot of different scents
out there, so which one do you enjoy most? Choose one. I prefer
incense, but you can use a variety of air fresheners to give your place
a great smell.
Does your house look comfortable? This question refers to the
fabrics and textures of the furniture in your home. Look at your place
and ask, "Would I want to lay down and cuddle up on my couch? My
bed? My floor?" If not, then what can I do to make my place feel
more comfortable?
What do you have that will make getting physical easier? Do you
have condoms and lubrication by your bed? Massage oil? These
things can all boost your sexual experience.
What kind of music do you like to put on? I suggest using Spotify to
make a playlist of sexy and exciting songs. You can find my personal
playlist by following the link at the end of this chapter.

A few years ago, Neil Strauss took me to a party at his friend's

apartment. The event was fantastic, and all the women were having a
great time. Mostly of the fun came down to how entertaining it was to be
at his place. His secret was setting up each room in his apartment to have
a completely different feel. One room had co-operative video games
people could play. Another room had a dancer pole with couches on
either side. Another was filled with fantastic art, and each piece of art he
had a crazy story for. The rooms also had different lighting, which
brought a different feel to each of them. His kitchen had all sorts of
unique and exciting types of liquor to drink; stuff most people haven't
even heard of. Guests at the party spent hours just wandering around
checking out his amazing home, begging to come back for another party.
He was the most interesting guy in every room, because every room had
a little bit of his personality in it.

When women first started coming back to my place after a date, I

always had trouble getting close to them unless we'd already been
physical. I came up with this little technique I call "The Smooth Move"
to help me get closer to women without being overly obvious.

Start with some cut up fruits and veggies on a plate. (Have this ready
before you even go on the date.)
When she comes over, let her find a place to sit.
Once she finds a place to sit, youre going to find somewhere else in
the room to relax. Somewhere near her, but preferably not on the
couch with her.
Let her get comfortable on your couch while you talk for a while, or
throw on a movie.
A few minutes into conversation or the movie say, "I'm going to grab
us some snacks."
Grab the prepared plate of food.
When you come in the room with the plate, sit next to her, so you
can share the food but also, so you can sit next to her!

It's a smooth transition that allows you to get physically close to her
without being obvious. Remember, this is only really necessary if you
haven't been physical with her already. That said, if you've made it back
to your place, and you need a way to get close to her, this is a great
move.
 Where to get it

You might want to know where to get some interesting items for
your home. Here are a few suggestions:

Etsy.com: Etsy is a place where artists can sell whatever it is they

make. Almost everything you find on his site will be unique. It's
easily my favorite site for finding things no one else will ever have.

EBay.com: EBay is great for finding collectors' items signed

posters, old record players and records, arcade machines, pretty
much anything from the past that's hard to find, you can get on EBay.

Amazon.com: I use Amazon for anything ordinary that I need. I buy

nice appliances and kitchenware from Amazon.

Overstock.com: You'd be surprised how many single guys go

through life with one dirty set of bed sheets and old towels with
bleach spots. Don't be one of these guys. You can get new towels and
bed sheets at overstock at really affordable prices.

Local Nurseries: I love having plants in my home. Having life

around always feels good. Also, women have commented on my
ability to keep them alive and healthy for years. The best place to get
plants are local nurseries. Pick out some plants that you like and ask
the professionals that work there how to keep them alive and healthy
looking in your home.

Remember, your house says a lot about who you are, so take care of
it, and make it something exciting for people to visit. For more
suggestions on cool and sexy additions you can add to your home, check

 Chapter 24:
Adventure Dating

Life is either a great adventure or nothing.

- Helen Keller

I have five rules for dating. They're easy to remember, and can
radically change your dating life, but before we get to the rules let's take
a look at one thing that most guys don't remember.

If a woman shows up for a date then you've done well! She didnt
have to come. She made a choice to be with you that night. Have
confidence that she likes you, and is at least contemplating something
romantic. All you have to do is keep it from being an average date.

What's an average date? Well, it's something like taking a girl to a

restaurant sitting behind a table and asking her interview questions all
night long. You buy the dinner and the drinks, and maybe walk her back
to her place. You wait until the last moment before making a move and
likely get rejected. Nothing exciting, nothing exceptional.

The seducer goes on adventures. Adventures can be wild, exotic,

intriguing, and thoughtful. I want you to learn how to go on adventures
with women; not dates. You and she are characters in a story and that
story is exciting.

These six rules will help you turn dates into adventures and minimize
possible mistakes:

RULE #1: Present Your Best Authentic Identity

Whatever venue you take your date should be a place that allows you
to express your identity. In other words, the location you pick should
allow you to easily bring up identity stories and share yourself.
 RULE #2: Explore Multiple Venues

The more places you visit with a person the longer they'll feel they
knew you, because you shared more experiences together. If you go
boating and afterwards to a cooking class, she will learn more about you
than if you just go for dinner. Why? Because each environment comes
with different sights and sounds, it generates new types of conversations,
it suggests different things about your individual qualities, and at the end
of the day you'll learn more about a person than you possibly could in
just one place.

RULE #3: Ask Interesting Questions

You need to learn about each other, which means you shouldn't be
the only one talking. Be sure that you're finding out what you can about
the woman you are interested in. The questions should be relevant to the
conversation. If she's talking about her job, then think of questions that
will reveal something about her. You're looking to answer questions like
these:

Why does she do what she does?

How does she feel about different aspects of her life?
What kinds of things does she want to do in her life?
What has she accomplished in her life, and how does she feel
about those accomplishments?
What stories does she have to tell?

RULE #4: Simplify Logistics

Before the date, always make a plan for where you're going and how
you're getting there. Send the name and address of the location the night
before the date via email or text message. If you're planning on going
from venue to venue, then spend some time planning out how you're
going to get to each place. Being stuck at a venue, standing outside
trying to figure out how you're planning to get somewhere can be a real
mood killer. Also, dependent on the place you might want to let her
know what she should wear. She'll appreciate it if she is not going
horseback riding in a cocktail dress.

RULE #5: Always Be Flexible

Sometimes you'll end up somewhere that the woman doesnt enjoy.

That's fine. Just be ready to move on and have a backup plan if this
happens. That is another reason why I suggest going to multiple venues
on your date. If they don't like the place, you can easily move on and
keep the vibe of the date positive.

RULE #6: Don't make your move at the last minute

Most guys hesitate when it comes to going for the kiss. They wait
until the very last minute, creating an awkward moment. Even if they
manage a kiss, the situation is lack-luster. When you're on a date and the
opportunity arises, go for the kiss.

Note: Impatience and hesitation are not the same thing. If you go for
the kiss before she's comfortable, you're impatient. If you see an
opportunity and chicken out then youre hesitating. Look for a
comfortable window of opportunity to go for the kiss, and go for it. Take
a bold romantic step forward.

Examples from students:

One of my students, a painter, would bring women to the arts district

in Los Angeles. The streets there are covered in art painted by a variety
of famous street artists. The arts district is also home to a number of hip
bars and restaurants. They started their night walking the streets as he
told her about the art, and what it meant to him. He talked about how he
was inspired by the individual artists, while they barhopped from venue
to venue.

Another student, in New York, used to take his dates to an improv

show every Friday night. This particular student was a comedian, and
always liked to start his nights with a laugh. From there he'd walk with
them to a local bar and then to a 24-hour diner. If everything went well,
they'd end up back at his place, which was also in the neighborhood.

One of my favorite examples is from a friend who decided to build a

pillow fort in his living room with a girl he'd met. Once the fort was built
he made plans to go out for burgers at a nearby burger joint, with the
promise of playing truth or dare in the fort once they returned. It wasn't
long before the game went from PG to XXX.

Should I buy drinks for a woman I'm interested in?

My advice is, if it feels like you're paying for the woman's time, don't
do it. You'll feel used and she'll feel obligated, which will drive her away
from you. Thats what I tell my students when they ask about buying
drinks when they're out meeting women. Paying for her time means that
she's sticking around just because you're paying for her drinks and for no
other reason.

Don't put yourself in that situation. Go ahead and buy drinks, but
only if it's the kind of situation where you'd buy one for a friend.

Try this: When you're on a date say, "Ill get the first round you get
the next." It's something I've done with friends, and dates it's a great
way to make paying the bill easy and comfortable.

 Chapter 25:
How Attract And Seduce Can Change Your Life

"It is not that I'm so smart.

But I stay with the questions much longer."
Albert Einstein

It can change your life by helping you to become a more attractive

and seductive individual. If you follow the steps in this book and put in
the time and practice we suggest, you can become the best version of
yourself. You can be the man other men want to be and that women want
to love. You can be the most interesting guy in the room.

Get a girlfriend, lover or wife: It can help you achieve romantic

success. No matter your romantic goal, if you study this art form you can
achieve it. I've had students go from zero to hero in less than a year, and
they did it using the four steps provided in this book: Open, Attract,
Connect, and Seduce. Make that your mantra, practice it when you go
out and in no time you'll be dating the women you've always dreamed of.

Avoiding the "Friend zone": Almost all men ended up in the

"Friend Zone" at some point or another. You want to be more than
friends but she thinks of you as just a friend. Using the principles and
techniques described earlier, it will be easier to being a romantic
relationship, with someone youre interested in.

Win friends and get a better job: It can help you dramatically
improve your communication skills. The art of seduction doesn't stop at
just seducing women. Seduction is inherent in all human communication.
That means once you understand the principles you'll be making new
friends, opening windows for new business opportunities, and improving
your relations with preexisting friends and family members.
 Freedom of mind and choice. It can free up your mind of stress.
Not being able to attract women can be mentally overwhelming, because
your mind tends to revolve around what you desire. It takes up time and
energy, and can be the cause of tremendous stress. As you improve your
seduction and attraction skills, you'll start to have more choice in your
life. You will be able to choose your friends and lovers, and that stress
will start to dissolve. You'll free up some mental space and begin to see a
more creative and less stressful future ahead of you.

Confidence. As we've said before: confidence is built through small

successes. You've picked up this book, now its time to get out and
practice. Set small goals and achieve them. Know that with each success
comes confidence and that confidence will support you when you're
attempting to accomplish future goals. Over time, you'll become the
confident guy you've always wanted to be.

What's next?

Now that you have an understanding of the art of attraction and

seduction, and the different ways that you can go about seducing the
women you're attracted to, I would like to invite you to watch some great
videos that can really keep you moving forward towards your goals. The
collection of videos explores the individual steps that you've read about
in this book. They're all there to help you become a more attractive and
seductive person.

You'll find videos with new routines, confidence exercises, approach

improvement techniques, and sexual technique. You can also find a
forum with like-minded attraction and seduction students and coaches
who can help you through sticking points you may run into.

 Chapter 26:
Happily Ever After

Learning attraction and seduction is great and most guys are using it
to find the right girl for a long-term relationship. As any guy whos in
one of those will tell you, long-term relationships are just a different kind
of game. The two of you are hopefully doing what you can to keep
yourselves living exciting, adventures, productive, romantic lives - day in
and day out.

If you can do that, you've got a partner for life. The main thing to
start a strong long-term relationship is finding ways to keep the flame
burning and the ability to resolve conflicts in a healthy way. And there
are a lot more ways to do that than picking her up flowers on your way
home from the office. Here are five tools we recommend to men who are
worried about keeping the special lady in their life interested.

Take Her Away

One of the simplest ways to create excitement in your relationship is
a weekend getaway. You don't have to fly her across the country or take
her to a five-star spa. In fact, spending the night in a hotel room that's not
your home can inject a bit of "one night stand" excitement into your
long-term relationship. Make the night extra special by getting her some
sexy lingerie and the best bottle of wine you can reasonably afford.

Women want to know that they're desired that you're still interested
in them. Taking her somewhere outside of the ordinary, where the two of
you can have one serious one-on-one time away from the distractions of
ordinary life is a simple, but powerful, way to communicate this to her.

Talk Openly About Fantasies

Talking openly about sexual fantasies can be difficult for a lot of
people. The good news is that when a relationship progresses, it becomes
a lot easier for you to speak openly and frankly about it.
 If you have trouble doing this face to face, set up a fantasy exchange.
You each write some down on a piece of paper, seal it in an envelope and
open them at the same time.

Will she want to do everything you want? Maybe. You'll be

surprised. And the list of stuff she's willing to try is almost certainly
going to be longer than the list of things she won't even think about.
What's more, she's going to be more likely to try the things you want if
you're also willing to try some new stuff. So man up and have a talk
about it.

Chores
It sounds boring, but one of the biggest things you can do to keep a
relationship healthy is doing chores. Chores basically break down into
one of two broad categories:

The One She Hates: Maybe it's laundry. Maybe it's dishes. Maybe it's
walking the dog. Whatever it is, theres one chore thats "hers" that
she just can't stand doing. Surprise her by doing it for her one day
without being asked. It's one of the simple, straightforward things
you can do that's going to make a huge difference to her.
Fixing Things: Even if you have the money to have everything fixed
or cleaned for you, take some time to learn how some of the stuff
around your house works. The fact that you can fix little mechanical
things or that you have some tricks for cleaning and doing repairs on
the house is attractive. Youtube can teach you how to install, fix, or
build most simple to moderately complex household things.

Breakfast in Bed
This is sort of like bringing her flowers, but it takes (a lot) more
work. First, you have to get up without disturbing her. Then you have to
make breakfast. Having a good breakfast spread or two in your cooking
repertoire is a serious big boy power move that will put you above all the
other men she's ever dated.

Cereal's not going to cut it here, guys. Learn an egg dish, some kind
of cool way of making toast and some kind of breakfast meat that isnt
just bacon right out of the package. Just a little bit of effort here is going
to go a long, long way, whether it's with Ms. Right or Ms. Last Night.

Last words on relationships. Im not sure theres enough time in one

lifetime to become a master of the long-term game, despite what people
might claim. I try my best to keep the person Im with loved and in love.
If something works, go with it, if it doesnt move on try something new
or try a new person. Dont let things get stagnant, its the one sure thing
Ive seen drown relationships. Keep improving, connecting, and
communicating, and youll likely find yourself in a good place with the
one amazing woman you truly care about.

 Chapter 27:
From Awkward Nerd To Confident Dating Coach:
An Inspirational Interview

Stylelife: So, I'm here with The Sneak who's a coach for Stylelife
and was originally a student at Stylelife. I wanted to start by just asking
you where you come from and what your background is? Tell me a little
bit about yourself.

The Sneak: Well, I was a very nerdy kid growing up. I think I
always had a good heart but I was very misunderstood. I could be quite
stubborn and ultimately repellent towards people that I would have
wanted to attract. That caused a lot of frustration in my childhood. I
really did want to be closer to people, but I just couldn't figure out how to
be closer to people. That continued throughout my high school years and
into college, up until the point that I discovered Stylelife.

Stylelife: What happened when you discovered that it was possible

to learn the art of attraction and seduction?

The Sneak: I was excited. I was really excited just to do something

like try out an opener and talk to people. For me, that was amazing, the
fact that I could go up to a group of people that I didn't know and
suddenly be in a conversation with them. I thought that that was already
life-changing for me personally and I didn't grow tired of doing it. I just
loved to go out all the time and just talk to new people at that point in my
life.

Stylelife: What did you find to be the hardest thing about learning
to talk to women, just to start conversations?

The Sneak: I didn't think it was very hard, actually, I thought that it
was a relatively easy step. You obviously have to defeat your own
anxiety of walking up to a woman or a group of people and I'm not going
to pretend that wasn't something that I struggled with for a little while.
Overall, once you see that it works, you actually give it a shot and you
try it out and you realize that, "Wow, that actually worked, these people
are talking to me." It starts to become easier each time. Your confidence
in yourself and in the material is building so the anxiety lessens. That
was probably the hardest thing that I had to deal with but I got past it
pretty quick. Ultimately, it was actually an easy step for me.

Stylelife: What was the hardest lesson for you to learn?

The Sneak: Active disinterest, also referred to as disqualification, is

still the hardest thing for me to understand. I understand it now
intellectually after having studied this material for as long as I have, but
executing it is something that continues to require practice and every
now and then I get it right. When I do, I'm really excited.

Stylelife: What was difficult about it? What made it so hard to

learn, compared to the other material?

The Sneak: One of the first things that makes it harder to learn, is
that there's a certain timing that's crucial in practicing it. That timing is
not necessarily "right away". For example, learning an opener, you do
that first. So I can always go out and practice an opener. But, as you get
into things that happen later on, like active disinterest, generally you
want the people to be already talking to you, and in a good conversation,
before you start doing something like that. Even just getting to it can be
tough. Then once you're getting into it, it requires you to take risks a
little bit more, and try on a new behavior a little bit more than some of
the other steps. Being comfortable in accessing a different part of
yourself and expressing a different part of yourself that you're not used to
expressing that's very different from what you've done in the past, makes
it a challenging step to learn.
 Stylelife: As a coach what are three revelations you want to share
with a student who wants to learn the art or attraction and seduction?

The Sneak: The first lesson that I would want them to think about is
the principle, Be the Exception. You want to stand out in a positive
way. Everything can be traced back to that. Whenever you think about a
specific technique that you're learning, it should always be able to point
back to that particular principle and it always does. Having done it long
enough, things really do come back to that. So, I want them to consider
what that means to them, to be the exception, and to really put that in
their brain as something that they should always be able to come back to,
and make sure that they're doing the right things.

The second point would be that it's going to be a journey; not

something that happens overnight. They should have consistency in their
practice throughout their journey. They shouldn't think of it as a sprint,
but more of a marathon or a life-long running across the globe at a pace
that you can keep up with. I don't think that they should view it as
something that they're going to go out and practice 50 times and then
never practice again, or something like that. I'd rather they say I'm going
to practice twice a week for 25 weeks and then continue practicing twice
a week for 25 more weeks. That would be a better way to go about it.

The third tip would be to not just intellectually understand the

idea of pushing themselves and trying on new behaviors and ideas and
ways of being that they're not used to, but going beyond an intellectual
understanding of that and actually exploring what that means. You can
talk to a student for a long time about change, and he can nod his head
and smile and completely believe that he's along for the journey. But
then suggest that he tries to wear a different shirt and he might freak out
and say, "No, I won't try that new shirt on." That's where the truth comes
out. If you're a new student coming into this, don't trick yourself and be
nodding your head yes, unless you're actually also doing it and saying,
"Yes, I'm going to go out and try this thing on," whether it be a shirt, or
an opener or a disqualifier, whatever it is, actually give it a shot and see
how it feels. If it makes you uncomfortable, you still have to keep
exploring it until you understand what's happening.

Stylelife: What pitfalls do you think a student will run into? Like
common pitfalls.

The Sneak: The most common pitfall that stops guys is usually
laziness, which goes back to having to practice on a consistent basis. You
have to find a way to make it part of your life and something you enjoy
doing consistently. Stubbornness and not willing to try out new things is
another one. The idea that you already know lots of stuff can get in your
way.

The Pseudo Experts, some guys, they already feel like they have all
the answers, because they have studied all the material. But then they are
asking questions anyway. That inhibits their growth. If you're here asking
questions, somewhere deep down, you must know you don't have all the
answers. So don't fall into the trap of suddenly feeling like you already
know it all. Accept the basic idea that it's going to be a journey and
you're going to be making all kinds of discoveries forever.

I'm still learning all the time within this art form. I've been doing it
for a long time, but I can honestly say I'm still growing and I should still
be growing. I think that that's correct. I don't think that that's me like,
"Why is it taking him so long to have learned everything?" There's
always more you can learn. When you start to feel like you know it all,
you're probably in trouble.

Stylelife: What was your study like when you were beginning to
study the art of attraction and seduction? What would you suggest for
new students coming into it for practice?
 The Sneak: My study was going out at least 4 times a week, for at
least 3 hours a night, for my first month. I read this in some old
community book, it was called The Newbie Drill. The truth is, I really
enjoyed it. As I said, when I was running the openers, the fact that I was
meeting new groups of people and they were just having a conversation
blew my mind. It was really exciting for me, considering I came from a
place where I struggled to connect with people. It was miraculous. I
loved it. I would go out sometimes five nights a week, six nights a week,
seven nights a week. It got to a point where it probably wasn't healthy. I
was doing a worse job at my work as a stand-up comedian. The other
things that I was exploring at the time were suffering because my life
became out of balance because I was so excited. I don't think that
someone has to do that in their practice to succeed. As a matter of fact, I
pulled back from that. When I pulled back, I actually got better at
communicating with people. I still enjoyed those times when I was going
out all the time, but when I went back to doing it, say 4 times a week and
no more, my skills actually grew.

So I do think that there's a sweet spot somewhere around 4 times

per week, however that's a lot for a lot of people and I don't think that it's
completely necessary. If you can dedicate yourself to say, going out 2
times a week for 3 hours a night and practicing consistently for a couple
of months like that, I think that's fantastic. The bare minimum that I
would recommend would be going out one night a week. That's just if
your life is really crazy busy right now but you're interested in this and
you're planning on practicing even more at some point. But right now,
you're just trying to groove into it, my minimum for you would be once a
week, 3 hours a night, and make sure you approach at least 4 groups of
people while you're out there, to consider it a true night of practice.
Unless, of course, you meet somebody in the first, second, or third
approach that's so incredible that you end up spending the rest of the
night with them. In which case, fantastic night of practice and fantastic
night of your life.
 Stylelife: Has the art of seduction benefited other areas of your life
besides romantic interests?

The Sneak: I've used it to make great groups of friends and an

extensive social circle. Eventually, I've become a member of a band
through my social connections with people. So it affects my creative life
tremendously. Within the context of being in a band, if there's a joke that
I think is funny that I want the other two guys to think it's funny, I've
used techniques that I've learned socially to get them excited about the
joke that I want to get on stage. Honestly, the education runs through all
my interactions.

I think that it's inseparable from me at this point. On some level, I'm
probably thinking about the way that I'm communicating with someone.
On some level, I'm probably always trying to be a bit more seductive
than the average human being, just because I spent so long thinking
about it. I get to manifest things into the universe that I want to manifest.
So it affects all areas of my life and even probably all interactions of my
life.

Stylelife: Great. Thanks for hanging out.

Stylelife: How long did it take you to set up a date with a woman?

The Sneak: For a couple of months, I just practiced starting

comfortable conversations with people. A few more months went by as I
worked on generating attraction, conveying interest, and closing.

The first real dates started rolling in around the half-year mark. That
was a very big deal for me. Previously, my dating like was pretty much
non-existent. Now, I was having all kinds of crazy adventures.

Stylelife: Can you tell me about one of those crazy adventures?

 The Sneak: I'd been practicing in Manhattan. The bars had all
closed, so I was riding the L train back to my place in Brooklyn. Sitting
at the end of the train was a girl who looked like she had jumped off the
pages of a magazine. Nobody looks that cool in real life. She was with
one other girl, so I thought...
What I didn't know was that the eight, very tough looking guys
sitting nearby were also their friends. To everyone else, I looked far
braver than I actually was. What I did know was time was very limited.

Having practiced on the subway before, I had a little routine to find

out what stop they were and then I had to use every one of those
moments as efficiently as possible. We hit it off really well and ended up
having a whirlwind romance of sorts.

She was truly one of the great loves of my life. Never in a million
years did I dream that I'd meet a girl like that while riding on the NYC
Subway, It's pretty cool when life exceeds your dreams.

 Chapter 28:
How I Got My Girlfriend:
A Powerful Success Story

Stylelife: All right. We love to celebrate successes. Stringer has

come a long way in a relatively short period of time, and has had some
major breakthroughs in the past year. Can you tell us a little bit about
who you are and where you came from, and set us up with a little bit of
your back story?

Stringer: I never really had trouble getting into relationships. I

was always in the wrong relationships. What I found myself doing time
and time again, was committing a lot of time to relationships that just
weren't good for me, and ultimately were just a complete waste of time
and could have even damaged my life in a lot of ways. What learning the
art of attraction and seduction at Stylelife allowed me to do, was develop
skill sets. Having the ability to select the type of woman that I wanted to
be with romantically and also who I wanted to be with as far as friends
go. It taught me skills to completely rebuild my social circle. At this
time, I have a very rich life, full of friends and a great girlfriend, who I've
been with for a year. We've recently moved in together, and we're very
much in love.

Stylelife: That's great, fantastic. We love to see our students

experiencing such amazing things such as that. Can you tell me a little
about any specific attraction and seduction techniques or advice that
helped you build that success?

Stringer: I would have to say that as far as techniques go, there

was a technique that Byron taught me called Identity Storytelling. What
this did, was it allowed me to begin to start telling stories about my own
life in a very passionate way. It allowed me to convey my identity
quickly and allowed me to connect with people, on a social, emotional,
or personal connection very quickly. That was something I hadn't been
doing. I also hadn't really been telling stories at all. One of the great
things about learning how to do Identity Storytelling, was that it actually
taught me how to tell a good story. Now I find myself telling stories a lot
more and entertaining people. Whereas, I never would have done that
before.

Stylelife: When you say entertaining people, what do you mean by

that?

Stringer: I mean being able to hold the attention of an entire group

of people, say at a dinner party for an extended period of time, with just a
story. I may have been at a social venue before, or maybe out to dinner
with friends, but I never would have been the star of any conversation for
more than just a comment. I might say a sentence here and there. I
would never contribute more than a sentence at a time.

Stylelife: What does it feel like you, to be able to contribute

confidently? What's the biggest difference in how you feel, knowing that
you can have confident contributions?

Stringer: I feel like people are actually having an opportunity to

get to know me, whereas before I was limiting myself by not
contributing confidently, and basically hiding all the things that are great
about me.

Stylelife: Do you think that once you've been able to share those
things, the rewards have been really tangible for you? Can you name
specific ways that your life has changed?

Stringer: Definitely. Ever since I started doing the Identity Story

telling routine and began developing my ability as a storyteller, Ive had
greater friendships, greater relationships, and I've also noticed that it's
improved my management ability and my compliance at work.
 Stylelife: Do you think that there were any other big Ah-Ha
moments or epiphanies for you, other than Identity Storytelling? Things
that you learned that really shifted the way you were thinking?

Stringer: One of the things that I learned was the idea of being
indirect with the approach, and the extent to which you can take that.
One of the first things that I've learned from The Sneak, is that you can
open a set by not even actually opening that set. You can wear something
interesting, or you can be loud enough when you're talking about
something interesting that other people who are around you can either
hear you or see you, and be interested in what you're saying or wearing
and wanting to just talk to you as a result of that. Which is pretty much
the most indirect you can be in opening a set.

Stylelife: Right, absolutely. Did you experience success of getting

to meet some interesting people, that you don't think that you would have
been able to meet if you didn't know how to open indirectly?

Stringer: Yeah. There have been numerous times when girls,

guys, people, anyone really at the bar, who have heard me talking to a
bartender about a specific drink, got intrigued by what I was talking
about and joined the conversation. They would ask what I ordered and
often didn't expect me to have such an extensive knowledge of different
drinks of the alcoholic persuasion. I was able to start a conversation
about that. Then, I'm getting some more interesting identity story telling.

Stylelife: It sounds like you feel that Identity Storytelling was a

major shift in your life and really allowed you to express things and be a
little bit more interesting. When you have people seeing that they're
interested in you, do you find that to be something that you were able to
spot previously in your life, where people were giving you signs that
they were interested or is that something that you've gotten better at
spotting since you've been practicing?
 Stringer: I think, it's something that I've gotten better at spotting
since I've been practicing. I also feel like I've been getting a lot more
interest. I've been receiving a lot more interest since I started telling
identity stories. I think that identity stories, also like I said, taught me
how to just tell any story. The structure of identity stories, especially the
Identity Storytelling exercise that Byron created and teaches at the boot
camp, really teaches somebody how to tell a story, because there's a
beginning, a middle, and a definite end to each story.

Stylelife: If there was a time where you were not sure what to do
while talking to a woman or a group of people, how do you proceed from
there, if you just feel like you've lost track of things?

Stringer: If I wanted to gauge the interest in a set?

Stylelife: Sure.

Stringer: If I really wanted to see how interested people were in

me, I would disappear for a little bit. I might walk away. I might excuse
myself and go to the bathroom and come back later and see if I was
missed or not, see how things have changed when I've returned. If people
don't really seem like they care too much, that means I need to be more
interesting. If people are really excited that I'm back, it would probably
seem like I'd be in pretty good shape.

Stylelife: I like that. Do you think that the average person would
be able to use this stuff?

Stringer: I think that the average person could use this stuff and
achieve success.

Stylelife: Where would you recommend somebody to start, if they

were just starting out?
 Stringer: I would recommend that they start by reading something
that either Byron or the other Stylelife coaches have written. I would
recommend getting on the Stylelife Academy and checking out the
forums, to learn from that. I also would recommend that people take the
Ultimate Training Program in order to get a really strong foundation.
Theyll get the introduction from Neil Strauss, because Neil's the guy
who wrote The Game. A lot of people know that. If you don't know that
then I would say start there; read The Game. Most people know that
now, so I would say go ahead. If you haven't read The Game, read it.
Secondly, take the Ultimate Training Program, where you're going to get
all sorts of great advice from the Stylelife Coaches and Neil Strauss.

Stylelife: Great. For the last question, I want to know if you can
share a story with us, about a time you used these techniques and you
saw something actually shift from your usage of one of these techniques,
like a tale from the field.

Stringer: Sure. Gosh. Let me nail them down, my friend. Let me

tell you the story about how I met my current girlfriend. There was a
moment when I first met her, when I realized that the man that I was
before had no chance at all at attracting her, because she was full of shit
tests. She was very flirty when I met her. Which to me before, I would
have misinterpreted her flirting as being offended, not interested in me.
She was just giving me a hard time, like girls will do when they're
flirting.

Stylelife, in general, equipped me with the idea that I could just

walk by, I could banter back and forth, and reply with interesting
comments maybe about something that I was wearing. For instance,
when I first met my girlfriend, she commented that the lion lapel on my
jacket was interesting, and said that it reminded her of the Wizard of Oz.
Some guys might be offended by that or might react negatively to that
comment, but it actually lead right into an identity story for me that was
really powerful, and really changed her mind. For her, just saying
something off-handed in a joking way, I was really able to connect with
her. I think that that moment right there, where I was able to respond to
her lead banter with something that actually touched her, and allowed her
to emotionally connect with me. That was a moment when I really saw
the game changing of who I was and my idea of what was really possible
in the world.

Stylelife: Awesome. Thank you so much for sharing that with us. I
do think that having met your girlfriend, I can say she's an incredible
human being. Having met you, I can say youre an incredible human
being. I am excited that you were able to meet her and connect in the
way that you have, because you two deserve each other. I just want to
give you an amazing congratulations on all your success. Very nice stuff
man.

Stringer: Thanks Jay. Thank you sir.

Stylelife: You rock.

 Chapter 29:
Underlying Principles: A Conversation About How to
Never Use Another Line Again and Still Succeed

Stylelife: What was the #1 most impactful lesson you learned

while studying the art of attraction and seduction?

Nic: I have to pick two. Learning by principles and identity.

The lesson of learning by principles is to look beyond the tactics and

techniques and find out the underlying principle that makes them work.
What is so valuable about that lesson, is that once you learn the principle,
you can develop an infinite number of techniques that are more
congruent with your personality and your style. By learning principles,
youll truly be learning seduction and start becoming a seductive person
instead of learning lines and becoming a social robot.

The other lesson is in regards to identity. I asked Byron what the

biggest challenge was that he would see in students trying to learn
seduction. His answer was something along these lines: The students that
have the toughest time are the ones that hold more tightly to the identity
they think they have. They are afraid to do things differently because
they think that they will lose who they are. They dont understand that it
is not about being someone else but about accessing aspects of who they
already are at the right time. For example, we all have moments when
we are serious, moments when we are funny, moments when we are
sexual, etc. But not every state is appropriate all the time. Being flexible
in your identity is about knowing and being comfortable with all the
shades of your own personality so you can access them when you need
to.

The lesson here then, is that If you dont get past the idea that
your identity is flexible instead of rigid and you dont commit to
developing that flexibility, you will have a very limited range of women
that you will attract.

Stylelife: How do you use seduction to enhance your life?

Nic: Any skill that involves communicating with other human beings
can be enhanced with the principles of seduction, so beyond using them
to bring more women into my life, I also use them in business,
marketing, making new friends, influencing people, and negotiation.

I also feel that the study of seduction has motivated me to pay

attention to several aspects of my life that I didnt work on as much as I
should have, like my health, fitness and overall wellbeing.

Stylelife: How has your life changed since studying seduction?

Nic: Realizing that seduction was an art that could be learned and
not something that you had to be born with allowed me to go after what I
wanted instead of feeling like a victim of random circumstances. That, to
me, is the most important change and it translates to many other areas of
my life. But there are also the obvious benefits of feeling more
comfortable with who I am, meeting more people, living more
adventures, and having more sex.

Stylelife: What was the most difficult concept for you to grasp in
your study and how did you overcome the challenge?

Nic: Flexibility of identity.

It is not a difficult concept to understand but a very difficult skill

to master. I will also say that its the one that will create the most
significant change and improvement.
 Accessing specific aspects of your personality on
command is challenging. I feel like I have gotten better at it and have
grown to feel more comfortable summoning different shades of my own
personality depending on what the situation requires. The way I get
better is by pushing to do things that feel out of character for me in the
moment. I might make mistakes, feel uncomfortable, and even lose the
girl, but the extra flexibility I gain in my identity is well worth the price.

Stylelife: Was there any particular technique that you found

especially helpful?

Nic: One of my favorite techniques is Identity Storytelling. When

this becomes second nature, you have unlimited material and you get to
display your identity in the most fluent, authentic and efficient way
possible.
Stylelife: Can you share a specific story from your life, where you
used the lessons to accomplish something great?
Nic: To me a good seduction happens when I can bring new girls
into my life without interfering with the long term relationship I have
with the girl I love. To do that, I have to make sure that I plan a good
seduction, manage expectations properly, and be very strategic about
how I deal with the new women that come into my life. Without the
lessons I learned, I wouldnt be able to have the best of both worlds.
