Field Reports

lion-chasing-gazelle

For the past three years of The Rational Male there’s been a consistent presence in the comment threads of guys seeking advice for particular situations with regards to Game. Whether it’s fine tuning certain aspects of Game or a larger consensus of the guys participating in my comment threads it’s become obvious there’s a need for a dedicated page and comment thread to address these Field Reports.

So I’m instituting this page for exactly this. If there is some urgency to have members of The Rational Male community analyze your particular situation feel free to hit anyone up in the comments of my current post, but please refer them to your particular field report with a link to your comment here. I’m hoping this will alleviate the mass of posts for field report analysis and Game specific insights piled into the main blog post for any given week.

There will be some rules for this “forum” as such. I ask that you only keep your comments to addressing the field reports at hand and save your larger theoretical stuff for the main posts, or if relevant, keep the “bigger scope of things” posts to being as succinct as possible. There will be no moderation in this comment thread (spamming excepted), so realize it will be a very hot kitchen before you post. I will impose no restrictions on video links here, nor will I limit links to various, but pertinent articles.

Understand, this is an experiment for now. It’s likely this comment thread will exceed thousands of comments. I’ll be instituting new comment plug-ins for wordpress to deal with this in the future, but I may archive this page the the posts and refresh this page in the future as well. If this gets cumbersome I may simply institute a dedicated forum-style sub-site of The Rational Male to accommodate for Game specific questions.

So have at it, post your field reports and feel free to comment on the ones you have some particular insight for. Be forewarned that it’s likely things may get a bit salty at times and I expect a lot of back & forth with debate and disagreements, but that’s what this thread is for – to hash out Game particulars for your given situations.

That was 2 minutes of my life wasted getting the barman to make one for the sole purpose of getting IAS laid and it’s been for nothing.

Palma If one woman is rolling round laughing then the others wonder why and want a bit. So true. This kind of interest can also be accomplished with just men. You and a wing can be having a good time, laughing, interacting etc. and it will pique interest among girls. Any display of dynamism and passion is good. It builds social proof. Another reason to game repeatedly in the same venues… You come in and the doormen, managers, waitstaff, regulars all approaching you saying hey, you shoot the shit, clap them on the back, receive hugs, high fives etc… The… Read more »

@Palma, Sentient: thanks, I appreciate the effort from you guys.

Tactical question. If any of the girls I meet abroad show interesting in coming to visit, should I offer accommodation at my place? I can see pros and cons, best case scenario is very enticing, but I can also imagine bad cases arising from it.

Your place? The one you share with your wife?

Not a fan. She should be willing to get her own place to stay to come see you, and you can go there. Or bounce her back to your AIRBNB or hotel.

Girls act strange when in another woman’s home.

I did explicitly think of the “Goldmund” scenario (but I actually didn’t remember that I had read it from that Goldmund piece, because I sure would NOT pay for the trip). Re: offering the place to a guy, I actually would and did a few times (but the girls don’t necessarily know that I would).

When I met her and the two days we ended up making out and fooling around, I was the cool guy living life in the moment and having fun.During the second day, when we were making out and having fun in the thermal bath and she was telling me how she is going to be so… Read more »

“when I texted her about the coffee date, she wasn’t really enthused about it”

Can you screenshot the texts and then upload them on imgur so we can see the convo?

Would love to have your thoughts. I might have lost this girl, but I don’t want to make this mistake again.

OK. don’t do that again…

Beyond that, are you a student of game? Have you read Mystery Method? Do you understand the A-C-S model?

@ J I deleted the thread as I did not want it to to be on top of my inbox as I would be tempted to text her or send her a joke or something again and I did not want to end up doing that. My neediness sometimes gets the better of me when I am free and sitting by myself. But here is what she said I will try and write it down as exactly as I remember: Me: “Hey! I get done with my exam tomorrow. Lets grab coffee! How about Friday? I guess you get off… Read more »

Sounds about right… “Natural” game stuff works I til it doesn’t. Mystery Method – which is what Yareally and RSD are steeped in – fills in the gaps and allows for consistency.

That text was painfully happy puppy wagging tail…

@Student “Me: “Hey! I get done with my exam tomorrow. Lets grab coffee! How about Friday? I guess you get off work early on Friday right?”” Your mistake was sending the offer right off the bat. Which signals neediness. Rookie mistake we’ve all done it. What you want to do instead, is build up to it by first, establishing basic rapport and spiking her emotions. Then at a high point, make the offer. Like in sales. You don’t go right into the sales pitch right away, cause your target, is most likely gonna say no even if they kind of… Read more »

Ahh. I make that mistake all the time, I think I picked it up when I was learning that it is better not to chit chat too much via text or something. But it is beautifully explained here, a little spike is needed before I ask them out. I just wrote that down so that I never make that mistake again.

@Palma – lol. I’ve seen a lot online profiles like that. I used to hang out on swingers websites (and clubs) years ago and those are even worse because the supply/demand curve is even more skewed – all the aggressive, unpleasant (and proud of it) fat 50 year olds specifying “only men with six packs and 10 inch cocks” or whatever. It’s kind of like the loser guy who goes on a sugar daddy site and says “I have a lot of money to spoil the right girl with..but I will only consider under 22 year old Playboy model equivalents”… Read more »

Hahaha at “asset bubble territory”

I did the swinger club scene both as a single guy and with various FWBs. It was hilarious:

Going as a single man = pariah
Going with various average 30+ HB6s = member of the club
Going with my 19 year old redhead FWB (still the best sexual chemistry I’ve had anyone ever, although she didn’t like the swinger scene) = rock star

Dear Everyone who replied – thank you for the comments. I’ve been pondering them for a few days. I think the main takeaway is that I need to be a lot more consistent. The good stuff is good, the bad stuff I’m doing is bad, and most of the time I seem to be able to figure out which is which for myself. So I need to focus more on just doing the good stuff. But there has actually been quite a lot of improvement since I started posting here a couple of years ago, first in patches, and now… Read more »

What’s her game? I’d like to get some opinions on a Black Swan event. I was walking out of Panera’s in the entryway. There was a woman there and she was avoiding eye contact, so I looked past her as if she was invisible. She opens me as I open the door. I look back at her and she is smiling a big, friendly smile as she lays out her spiel (German for “play” or “game”) in a high energy way. The woman is early-30s and quite lovely and olive complected as if Greek or Italian. The woman has locked… Read more »

@Sentient @j @blaximus @culum struan Thanks for all the advice on here. I just watched the Mystery Method video that you sent me. It had amazing insight and I am now rereading the Mystery Method thoroughly. As I mentioned before as I got into Game just a couple of years ago, the routine based Old school pickup was always made fun of by the “Natural” and “Direct” Game guys and I fell into that way of thinking. Without having any solid structure I have been practising Game and it has got me sporadic results, a few lays here and there.… Read more »

Student Look at this chart. Is it daygame or night game? Do not fall into the trap of thinking that “routines” are the game, when the STRUCTURE is the game… Routines are just Demonstrations of High Value that have been used before. Aspie nerds learning PUA fixate on the word routine and miss the lesson… “Naturals” use “routines” all the time… whenever you have a story or joke or something you have told before, that is effectivly a routine… A “Natural” telling a girl about his crazy ex GF is just telling a girl story about his crazy ex GF.… Read more »

@Sentient You are right, it is harder for a brown guy like me, to run Game in CE but at the same time, there are certain section of the girls here, who are fascinated with eastern culture and tradition and stuff like yoga or are bored with dating CU guys want to taste something different. So I don’t want to use my situation as an excuse for anything. But I think a lot of my odds can be improved if I locate areas which women who are looking to meet foreigners frequent.

I see a woman with a nice figure walk by, she seemed clearly older than me, I don’t catch much of her face, but I see she has a fit body and nice legs.

I realize now after watching the Mystery Method video and from the book that I am now rereading. That I did not do much of attraction and it fell very quickly into rapport.

Good. yeah you just freindzoned yourself, maybe signed up for BJJ lessons… lol. and your idea of DHV story is not Mystery’s idea.

See how the little blurb I wrote upthread about the park is different and gives you hooks into making it man to woman?
