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.

True, some chicks just don’t want to talk or engage for whatever reason. No harm, no foul.

But that video guy…. From his example of ” pickup “, we can’t draw a conclusion that the girl wasn’t willing to be more open and engaging and receptive because he couldn’t manage to provide any reason for her to do so

Still expecting some post like RSD bangs the deaf and blind school,big score, panty raid.

“trying to convince her and”

Anything like logic doesn’t work.

“sell yourself”

Presentation,approach, push pull and setting yourself up as a scarce commodity,sell works.

“and get her to make a logical decision to fuck you” doesn’t work”

Even a woman you have fucked a 1000 times isn’t going to make a logical decision to fuck. it is always about emotion and feels.

@HABD – I’ve seen you mention “guard dog situ” many times, so thank you for the explanation. So you’re basically saying when dealing with women (esp those you see regularly, or in an LTR etc) that you shouldn’t get into a situation where you “train” her into believing that escalating her shit tests gets her what she wants – which is the message she will takehome if you get into a cycle where you eventually give in to her every challenge/shit test, but each time you resist more before giving in (because you are trying to hold your frame and… Read more »

Train your women. If they strenuously resist training because strong and independent, cut your losses and jet. ” Training ” might sound demeaning, so refer to the neural pathways thing AR speaks of above. This stuff can be a tall order because our upside down society rewards and overlooks women’s sometimes shitty behavior, so you might just be a lone voice in the wilderness/her life trying to rewire and hack her operating system. Yet with the inate nature of what women actually long for, this can be a great advantage. There was a few times in life where I’ve had… Read more »

I mentioned before that the average lifespan of a pre-Christian Irish King (a meritocratic culture of trial by combat) was three years.

As you rise in power, the world turns more of its attention toward you and becomes more dangerous.

As you gain speed, the race doesn’t get easier, it gets faster.

The tall guy extended his hand outward while both hands on the other guy were full. He’s not thinking clearly. Break-up was recent? She did it? Let’s see her smug mace, check. Yep. She did it. Let him down gently. It can happen since he’s stupid too. Holding his hand out like that established this. Also. The current boyfriend’s not fat and disgusting. It doesn’t count. And the side of beef-queef was the first to say something to HER. So she’s the queen of them BOTH.… Read more »

@yollo “Holding his hand out like that established this.” I didn’t think it was because he was stupid. Big guy didn’t care that little guy had he’s hands full. He just fully expected him to shake his hand anyway cause that’s what’s suppose to happen. Social conditioning says being tall and muscular makes you alpha duh. So when little guy doesn’t submit to social pressure + does something completely unexpected zero fucks given and then has the cojones to look at big guy dead in the eyes with a shit eating grin no fear that he’s gonna do something about… Read more »

Field Report Unexpected girl reaction–why???? I was at a crowded restaurant with a tour group waiting for a table and seated on a bench beside Mrs. Gamer…other side was a machine…doing some eye flirting with a 40ish girl who was with some guy–not in our group…that girl comes over with the guy and she leans against the machine with her ass about three feet from my face…she leaves for her table with her guy…so I was kind of in state…later a 30ish hottie (HB8) walks in and I notice her and look at her a bit and her head snaps… Read more »

@EhIntellect Just watched “The Innocent Man” where an innocent man gets fucked over by the cops, the guards, the inmates…the system. Be glad you weren’t that guy. “Bare is the back which has no brother.” Make friends with guys when you go to a new place. If there’s a confrontation inside, expect one outside and plan accordingly. Inside is safer than outside because friends. Roll with the punches and be the first to call the cops. If you end up in a fight with multiple guys, you can use a weapon in my state…if you are jumped by multiple guys,… Read more »

Lol. There’s a whole other universe out there Wrt to that commercial and how/what social conditioning or whatever, says people react to stuff, or how they are supposed to react. It’s revelatory and explains a lot. @ all I read eh’s story 3 times, and I don’t get why what happened took place, or what led up to it. It sounds 100% crazy to me. So I got nothing except that if people are constantly fucking with you and attacking you and wanting to fight, you need to move or master your environment. At the very least you need to… Read more »

ASD ” everybody’s got a plan until they get punched in the face ” Mike Tyson. Seems you’ve given this a lot of thought. Good for you. Newbs reading along – a plan to survive a random assault can’t include ” I’m gonna call the cops “. Cops can’t transport and materialize instantly to your location to render assistance. Most times, they show up after the fact. Being social includes more that talking to, and picking up women, lol. Just as calibration is required when engaging chicks, it’s also required in your environment in general. Bars and clubs by definition… Read more »

“Cops can’t transport and materialize instantly to your location to render assistance.”

And in any case aren’t your personal army. They aren’t a crime prevention squad, they are a crime clean up squad.

So even if they show up they may just stand around until it’s all over, i.e. when crimes have actually been committed, and then arrest everyone who survives on some charge or other (You may think you were defending yourself. They may think you were participating in a criminal altercation).

Thank you for writing. Within the bar…after I dance with the other woman…Mrs. tells me a guy asked her if she feels safe with me. She said yes, we’re fine. She tells me this immediately after I was away, then the screaming woman, me thinking a bit about it, then we left. There were wobbly moments I admit. Moments of intense pressire…new job, away from home, then this. I kept in mind that my reaction was yet in my control and focused there. I never lost faith in RP, it guided me. Read Greene”s Power again. That helped, was clatifying.… Read more »

AR – she had already been divorced for several years before we got hooked up; she and I were an item for 3-4 yrs before we married; at the time, I *was* consciously vetting; because she already had a kid, I got to see her mothering skills and she did very well with that…. she is smart, good looking, educated and socially savvy… someone to proudly be at my side; we got along great and we have much in common I was wanting to get it all lined up before committing to a woman for marriage and children…. I wanted… Read more »

@CatchersIndifference props on putting in the work!… couple quick points… I mostly settle for the number due to my logistics being sub optimal at the moment. settle… I live 30+ minutes away from where I meet women but have had 100% conversion rate by Day 3. I think SNL is my new plateau for personal growth just like kissing girls pre 3rd date used to be. Even thought I’ve read tons of LR’s where guys are bagging girls the same night there’s part of me that won’t believe it until I do it myself. even then, you still might need… Read more »

@scars – interesting that it sounds like you had a good shot with the last girl before you got thrown out and possibly amog’d as that was the one who you opened DIRECT and showed intent and interest before she did which is technically wrong. I saw a guy open a girl in classic civilian way last night (I was standing next to the girl at the time, taking stock of my approaches that night so heard most of it) and he opened like ”Hey, how’s your night going?” she said fine. He asked her all of the classic normal… Read more »

@ SJF “I went red pill and now I’m where I am at right here and now.” I was and am in a good place, though now a different place. I thought, read a lot about the Anna Karenina principle, Red Queen, antifragilty. I stressed losing faith and focused on keeping as much yardage I’d gained, kept the relationship MRP. The isolation was painful at times but know Mrs. was grateful for my leadership, even up to taking the plea, though she would’ve liked to see the cops explain many witness inconsistencies, sloppy police work. Fine, classes, insurance hike, OL.… Read more »

“Ultimately this is a speedbump in a hopefully long life. I know this. If anything, I’m much better a husband, friend, father and peer for this experience. I can speak with authority about it.

SJF, I might call or write. Thank you.”

Amen brother, I like, admire and respect your style.

It would be fun to talk over fight club with you. I just created a new burner Gmail acct. email me. user name: inscrutablemastermind.

Finally some time to post a FR. I follow a routine that @palmasailor recommended: change venues 2-3 times and escalate kino at each bounce, solid. I abandoned the wallet gambit altogether, felt like a weasel move. I want them to follow me because they can’t resist. It was time to up my game… I meet this girl near a train station, plenty of people there in the evening. I tease her and joke, she giggles and plays along. I throw in a few role playing hoops, all fun and giggles, she jumps through. She shares my sense of humor and… Read more »

There’s an escalation ladder?

Really?

Will wonders never cease.

Is there a calibration step stool that one uses before scaling the escalation ladder?
