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.

There’s a lot more to this and I should poast it all. Firstly – I’ve lost the bulk of all my nett assets Nett / Nett. The court case was 5 days in trial with cross examination, and that I went from high to low at points when you think you’re winning to losing. Final day was a 2 hour conference call when the judge hands down “reasons” and by half hour in I know I’m going under the bus. So it’s a 2 hour slow motion train crash. I’m going under the bus, but I don’t know how far… Read more »

Gentlemen, I am new here, so forgive me if I am covering ground already covered elsewhere. Or forward me to the relevant thread. Some background. I am still an AFC. I’m trying to chart a new path. I married at 24 as a sexually deperate young soldier with orders for Iraq and essentially a virgin to a Filipina with family in the USA on a fiancee visa. She was 28 In the “honeymoon” phase, my military optempo was such that over the course of 2002-2005 we actually only shared a bed about 100 times, during which I fathered two children.… Read more »

I just finished reading “the rational male” and am about halfway through “the game”

I am looking for advice on how to divorce my wife in as gentle a way possible. Call it the last vestiges of my white knight syndrome. I don’t hate her. There is no malice in my desire to leave. I just want out.

Once that is done, I’d like to learn how to spin plates.

I tried that thinking it would help maintain my relationship with my son.

It didn’t work.

Basically you can’t do it. The minute you check out she’ll turn on you for the money, and she’ll use everything and everyone at her disposal to extract the maximum possible from you.

Did you say your children are 18 now? What are the laws like where you are?

Can you get a clean break?

What’s your relationship like with them?

Well, ok, move to the other house with your kids and lawyerup and get it done.

Some of these ioi women are in the 18-26 category of peak SMV. But although I can recognize the interest, even if I didn’t think it dangerous for business, my game is weak.

Ok – so you’re in good shape at 45 and you’re getting IOI’s from these women. Well you will. Have you seen the state of younger “men”? Lol….

I don’t doubt you are getting IOI’s but are you recognising these in real time? What IOI’s are you seeing?

I can’t maintain interest past more than 1 hour of interaction most of the time, and my advances usually either come off as creepy or beta friendzone.

You’re probably talking too much and not asking enough open questions.

And an hour of interaction is a long time to fill. You can get a woman to the mattress in that time from a zero start if you know what you’re doing.

Do you have any more detail of any interactions you’ve had?

During conversation a lot of these women can’t stop playing with their hair when we are talking.

I passed a woman on the street the other day, and I turned to look at her ass only to catch her rubber necking at mine.

I was admiring the design work on a woman’s business card and said it looked very elegant and refined and she raised her eyebrows and said “just like me, right” fishing for a compliment.

@JR Terrier Just to add to what Sentient said – ironically, I found everything became easier when I stopped lying to women saying I was single/divorced and just told them I’m married. Although there it exceptions, in most cases it strips out the “resource hunters” looking just for provisioning and if they still want to be with you, they know it’s just sex and nothing more. The younger girls don’t care anyway (if anything they prefer it because it means you don’t catch feelings etc).

I have an added advantage. In my state, there is no “taking your spouse for everything”. It’s a 50/50 split by law regardless of circumstances.

Yeah. So issuing an IOI should not be confused with a compliment. This is dangerous territory especially for the recovering nice guy who has routinely complimented women and it’s got him precisely nowhere.

When women give us an IOI it’s never a direct compliment. As I’ve said I regard compliments from a women as beta bait / thirst tests that men fall flat on their face with.

@JR Terrier Don’t do this. Or do it if you just want to get the experience, because it is unlikely to turn out well. Partly because of the messiness and connections in town but mainly because there’s nothing you’ve described that suggests she has any attraction for you. It sounds to me like she’s just being polite in her interactions (if that – since she didn’t even finish the work you assigned to her). If you really want her, you can make a serious attempt, but not like this – you need to get her attracted to you first. That’s… Read more »

Man that would be a bad mistake.

You haven’t even started to think about what you’re doing / read mystery.

I’ll reply properly at the weekend when I have time.

But don’t do what you propose.

Read Mystery and talk to girls that aren’t into you just for now.

Ok. Thank you for the advice. I won’t respond at all for now. I could go into more detail about our previous interactions. But after reading Strauss and Tomassi, I am looking back and realizing she was throwing lots of IOIs last year and I missed them. Right over my head. I also was less aware of just how toxic my relationship was with my wife at that time. It’s been an enlightening several months. I think the reason she never finished the project is that she only took on the job because it meant meeting with me one on… Read more »

@JR Terrier – it’s certainly possible she’s interested in you – we can’t get a sense of her interest level except based on what you write (one of the things reading up properly will teach you is how to write a Field Report and spot and mention relevant details etc) and it didn’t look to me like she was particularly interested. But it’s certainly possible that it is the way you say. PS – Don’t think in terms of physique or financial status – think in terms of social status and dominance which is what women mainly go for (physique… Read more »

Same as all social mammals. Whether bats in a cave, caribou on the tundra, elephants on the savanna, wolves in the forest, lions, gorillas, baboons, and of course, hominids. There are five basic forms of social status that females of all species of social mammal respond to. Resources (food, shelter, water), leadership (number of other group members following the individual) , flamboyance (charm/peacocking as mystery calls it), aggression, and physique(which includes pheremones). Now, I am strong on physique and Resources, above average on leadership, but weak on flamboyance and pretty much non existent on aggression. I’m working on flamboyance, and… Read more »

Not my God daughter.

My dad’s third wife is her God-mother. That baptism was done years before they got married. So, dad’s third wife is my stepmother, but I was in my late thirties and she was in her teens when they my dad and her godmother got married.

You guys are reading too fast and missing my connotations. I said “step-god-sister” but it’s loose in the sense that we’ve never had a familial relationship. Just a step marriage baptism thing.

@JR Terrier – this is really good. This is exactly the kind of thing you should be doing and that’s a really good Field Report you wrote. The woman is clearly attracted to you, so you need to make the next step happen. Basically you need a longer interaction alone (meaning like 20 min or so) and then get her out alone for a drink with you that’s not at the event. Ideally you’d do it the same night so she gets caught up in the rush of emotions. You can schedule drinks another night too, but it’s a lower… Read more »

Breaking it down. We’ll, I’ve bounced around the Attraction phase a bit. I didn’t do a clean 1 2 3. I’ve nagged her 3 times so far. I’ve drawn away multiple times as well. I think the little boxing bit was a brief foray into c2. That’s about as high as I’ve gotten. I could use pointers about missed opportunities. Or your assessment of my progress.

Just realize the stages aren’t cliffs, stair steps. There is always going to be a lot of chaotic back and forth through them. You may need a little more A here or there a little more C and you head down the general path.

Think of driving down the road, gas (A) brake (C) clutch (rapport, or switching between the two).

Get the basics and understanding right upfront and it’s going to make a world of difference in execution.
