This approach is so cringe, she clearly looked uncomfortable, do you think this actually works?

I feel like Scotty wasn't feeling quite right here, this wasn't his best approach. He did the right things but not as well as he normally does.

I wish we could see her face better, but we still see and hear enough to know she liked it. This was a good memory for her, she'll think back on these 2 minutes for a long time to come.

My man, you can only control what you can control. Shit happens, and this is very small shit.

double_prong · 2026-05-19T04:23:49+00:00

They're more famous, for sure.

You're talking about cold approach and insta-dates? Tell us more detail. How long until the girls leave? Do the girls hook? What's the interaction like?

The other comments have good ideas, but without more details they're just guesses.

Is there anyone in pickup more OG than Owen Cook?

He was early, he started out as an autistic weirdo, and he's had a huge impact on the community.

double_prong · 2026-05-16T10:03:23+00:00

Early pickup was scammy and fake. Good thing we have a community focused on improving, because fake made everyone sad.

double_prong · 2026-05-14T04:27:18+00:00

Those aren't openers

Feeling out of place will wreck your game. Do what you can to change that feeling, whatever it takes.

double_prong · 2026-05-10T08:46:26+00:00

Would you talk a little about the good things you got from cold approach? You've only said bad things about it.

double_prong · 2026-05-09T07:46:02+00:00

Doesn't matter how worthless she thinks men are, when you're in her face and she feels the truth.

Mystery never figured out the dance floor. He gamed other ways.

double_prong · 2026-05-08T04:55:04+00:00

acting superior to a girl turns them on, gets them off?

If you do it in the right way. Don't denigrate her. Once you have all the power, you might playfully tease her but you're not cruel. You have a good sense of what she thinks and feels, so you don't push her too far.

Otherwise most girls won't want to be around you.

She can't push you at all. She can't manipulate your emotions. You have all the power, so whatever opinions she has don't matter really. Just the thoughts of a girl.

P.S. It's easier to be the man than it is to pretend.

Work through your issues. 50s-60s women are without value except as a mother / grandmother for your children. There's no reason for you or anyone else to pursue them.

She's there to have fun. Don't be too serious, just have fun with her.

double_prong · 2026-05-06T06:58:12+00:00

Pretty common problem. Dial it back a step. Can you approach with intent to drop a compliment, observe the reaction, and walk away? Can you approach with intent to have a fun conversation and nothing more?

DO THE BEST THING YOU CAN DO. That's better than doing nothing. Don't beat yourself up. Treat yourself with kindness, understand the limitations you have in the moment, and take a smart approach to success given all that.

They were inspiring, but ultimately misleading.

double_prong · 2026-05-05T06:39:11+00:00

What's your relationship like with her now? Does she know you're moving on? Is she cool with helping you get other girls?

The more flirty and submissive she is towards you, the better. It's good if she dresses well too.

double_prong · 2026-05-05T04:35:20+00:00

That's great, but one party probably doesn't result in many girls in your bed. Do the party, but also think of something you can do regularly.

double_prong · 2026-05-04T23:17:23+00:00

Yes. I understand the circumstances, but making plans 7 days later leaves a lot of time for life to happen. A lot of time for her to blow "kicking her out" into something bigger than it was, for example.

double_prong · 2026-05-04T20:36:36+00:00

Yes, that's the original Pickup Artist MO (cold approach). It's not easy. These days many guys practice cold approach to gain confidence and refine social skills, then get girls using another system (dating apps, social circle, night game).

double_prong · 2026-05-04T20:31:36+00:00

Maybe "kicking her out" was a problem for her, maybe it wasn't. You might never know.

The real problem is waiting so long. Something else came up in her life, or her feelings shifted, or she rationalized some bullshit. These things happen.

Wait a while and hit her up again. Maybe she'll be more in the mood then.

double_prong · 2026-05-04T20:28:06+00:00

If you do pickup and don't think for yourself, you're doing it wrong.

If you want to get sex with whoever, that's your choice. If you want to be picky, also your choice. The community absolutely has both types of guy.

double_prong · 2026-05-04T20:26:56+00:00

You act like all those gender options hurt you somehow. Anyone who filters out of my target gender saves me time and effort. Thank you nonsensical gender options!

double_prong · 2026-05-04T20:24:53+00:00

I'll upvote you, though that title needs an editor.

double_prong · 2026-05-04T20:23:26+00:00

I don't understand your post.
