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.
Lets give it up for the Strawman Argument!
@ sjf ” Funny thing was YaReally used to want to tell Old Married Guys with wives what their narrative was. YO!” This was his tactic. You’d never ” win ” an argument because he’d obfuscate, move the goalpost or have you trying to argue against some crazy absolute while he falsely stated his position as ” everybody knows ” . He was brilliant with pickup, but when he strayed outside of that he became irrational and unreasonable and frankly, full of shit. That’s why walls of text were required. If he replied to something outside the realm of pua,… Read more »

At a library with my son. I grab my book and sit on a sofa in the corner. He runs around collecting a pile of his books and disappears. Later I find him chatting with a cute staff member sitting behind her desk. He’s all passionate and animated about his novels, she enjoys it and asks him questions with a big smile. I walk over and accuse her “are you flirting with my son?!”. There’s a soy boy staff member next to them and they both laugh. She’s quick and comes back with “he’s too young for me you know?”… Read more »

It inspired me to know better. I filled in holes in regards to my ignorance. Because of debate. YaReally wasn’t really up to style in manosphere debates.

Have you thought about giving the internet a break and not ingesting pick-up related material for a couple of days or for a week and letting things settle in? Your FR sounds like you are very much in your head and it’s making you seem awkward because you’re measuring yourself in real time instead of being present and just having a man to woman conversation.

MRP and Relationship Game is satisfied at Greater Beta lesser Alpha. With emphasis on Greater and Alpha. And exhortation to move toward Alpha. It’s a praxeology and it works.

@IRL Sentient’s link to the Heartiste essay is precious. Very Precious. I worked out my son’s kinks at 18 and 21 years old. I supported his masculine side when he got in deep shit trouble and even parried my wife’s fears of toxic masculinity. Man, he got into a shit load of trouble. I supported him implicitly as a boy/man being a masculine male. And did that ever turn out well…. I ended up being a good father on the Red Pill side of things. He’s very attractive as a masculine male now. He turns 23 next week. He’s happy,… Read more »

Looks like you’re at train stations and on a train on a regular basis. Get your routine sorted buddy. I don’t think you talk to people around you. You don’t have to self amuse if that’s not your thing, getting talkative is just as fine. Enjoy interactions with anyone, this is something beyond pickup. Also, screw this EC screening routine you’ve developed, you don’t need a green light to chat to whoever you want. Do your thing.
Just scanning through comments quick – whoever asked if Todd is monogamous now: no he’s not.
He talks in this week’s videos about how he plans to be banging 18 year olds well into his 50s and how he and his girlfriend have threesomes etc (those of you following this saga will recall that the alleged final straw of his spat with RSD Papa was that Papa shared his wife with Todd and then it turned out she preferred having threesomes with Todd and his gf and was doing so behind his back etc)
@Catchers: I have an analytical mind. But I haven’t seen a RSD / PUA video in a while for example. I keep up with the FR section here. The latest “PUA” material I’ve read were J’s FRs here. Sometimes if conversation flows better I’ll be less “in my head”, it is harder when it is going uphill from the start. @IRL: I travel a bit for both commuting, work and personal reasons, so subway, trains and planes are often my daygame opportunities.

@palmasailor – I don’t have much to add to IRL’s comments, but I will just ask emphasize the point he made about the third date: why?
I mean if you *want* to do that and take it slow there’s nothing wrong. It’s your choice. But you know you could be banging her the first date and then enjoying the company right? And that you are on the “LTR” pathway here (again, not a problem if that’s what you want).
@irl yeah, that’s what I mean lol. silly toni robbins. @j @SJF (sigh) this is why I miss yareally… my post to irl was criticizing the pua industry for being laser focused on nothing but “get laid in 5 seconds flat” sensational headline crap…when you can use most of pickup skills to work in other social settings besides girls.

@hank – you’ve read Juggler Method right? It’s core is pretty much what you’re talking about (although it is targeted at getting girls, the building rapport and socializing stuff at the heart of it works just as well on men/ugly girls etc – you just don’t sexualize).
You can probably download the book somewhere. YaReally also summarized the heart of it in a few paragraphs somewhere in his archive.
@culum The only pua I have seen who did anything like that was the jester (or was it joker…) method…which is basically just repackaged Dale Carnegie. okay, so its juggler method…thats what I was referring to. Confusion here though is people are taking my comments as me ASKING for recommendations on resources that give general advice on socializing, when in fact my comments to IRL on the richard laruna video were simply CRITICIZING the pua industry in that they all take the same angle, and don’t branch out into other areas — like general socializing and networking — that if… Read more »

Powerful shit Hank. I wish you were healthy to use that energy to fuck one of these beautiful bitches out tonight!

Why should you not get married?
1. Risk because of VAWA/frivorce/STDs from slutty wife
2. Risk to kids from bad mother.
3. Most men are Blue Pill and lack sufficient game skills to minimize risk.
I’m a man and I accept risk and the burden of performance. I’m RP and have game skills, including knowing when I’m hit with an emotional/drama ambush and I watch my triggers.
Hank, you’re in defense mode. Stop that shit and think.
The number one reason not to get married or do an ltr is because you don’t want to and have no interest in it.
It is bad luck to be in constant disagreement with the Elders. When things are going rough I take stock of this and fix it.

TIP #51 From The Little Book of Talent by Daniel Coyle: KEEP YOUR BIG GOALS SECRET While it’s natural and oh so tempting to want to announce big goals, it’s smarter to keep them to yourself. In a 2009 experiment at New York University, 163 subjects were given a difficult work project and forty-five minutes to spend on it. Half the subjects were told to announce their goals, while half were told to keep quiet. The subjects who announced their goals quit after only an average of thirty-three minutes, and reported feeling satisfied with their work. Those who kept their… Read more »
@j thanks for the links. Interesting to see things presented from a tech perspective, as opposed to the sales/marketing/branding angle I’m most familiar with. as it is, my concept doesn’t have the same headaches as a software startup or some other company that requires a lot of people and investment — this is something I can do on my own, whenever I want, without costing hardly any money. I can have it as a side gig to do a few hours a week on. Each product only takes a few hours to make, so I can take on as many… Read more »

Can you regulate human nature?
Used to be able to with Religion, and Marriage for the better of the Betas and Societization to control the masses in large groups, rather than small tribes that we evolved from.
Rogue Bitcoin is next on the agenda:

Someone is going to want to regulate that. Cause
humanMother Nature is a bitch.Can’t just have human nature after all….
Burden of performance. It’s what’s for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Yes, we all know it is not easy.
Life is hard, no doubt and if you have a nihilistic viewpoint, you are going to be swamped by doubts, and existential angst, and all that. Life can be meaningful, but it is proportionate to the responsibility you take on and the choices you make. You can watch that when you are engaged in the world.
But disengagement is common. Don’t be common. Life’s to short to be disengaged. How the fuck did 12/10/2017 come up so damn quickly?

The Lean Startup by Eric Ries

In a nutshell: ACT TO LEARN, not learn to act. Apply in business, pickup, relationships and life.

@Culum: good FR. Keep it up on the blitz. @IRL: I got that it was a reference to my married status, that much was obvious. I think I get now that the earlier “scandal” comment was not because she was worried about it (although at the time that was how I interpreted it, which is why the apparent contradiction confused me and I asked about it)… It was to see if/how I reacted. When I let go of her hand not to cause her trouble and she clearly said she wasn’t bothered, I just grabbed the hand again showing I… Read more »
Culum Just reread your FR and do allllllll the stuff you figured out in hindsight. This though: ” they probably wanted some more guys to get attention from before going home with one..” Hit it HABD! Come on man you are better than this. You know what they want. Your made up buffer of 2+ hours is BS. Your goal at the point of hooking is what? Bouncing, moving. First bounce to other part of bar – 15 minutes. Next bounce to another venue nearby – drink or quick bite depending on vibe. 30 minutes. Next bounce to your place… Read more »
@Sentient: some of these women really have an issue with married guys, huh?
Are we just not spiking enough arousal?
@ Sentient
My hero.
Funny, every single chick that’s ever told me ” I’m not going to sleep with you… ” has slept with me, including my wife.
@ IAS I’d love to see sentiment’s reply because I have zero idea how to explain to another guy how to ” do ” what he did. I think success breeds more success. See his reference to hair pulling and putting his hand on her throat? I’m a HUGE fan of this to ” spike ” as the lingo says. My definition of spiking differs from pua definition. The head lock, the kiss on the forehead, the hand over her mouth – he was spinning her up and she was loving the interaction – but I think it takes practice… Read more »
” sentient’s ” not ” sentiment’s “.
I swear auto correct is laughing at me.
@Sentient
Nice one. Fun, sexual, bold.
I’m wondering now… how would you have played this game of chess if the failure to close had not been an option.
Looks like you were sexualizing on-off trying to turn her on and create enough attraction so that she could just let the feeling take over. Not enough Bobby Peru hoss… lol
But… even Khal Drogo had girls wanting him more than he wanted them… something they couldn’t have… I’d add more qualification and made her work harder for the feelz…
All those fraidy cat YSMs shouldn’t do LTR because they don’t want to because they’re afraid.
@ IRL
That chick was ready to GO. Lol.
ASD
Besides learning red pill and pua, and acquiring and internalizing game concepts, I think the average guy shouldn’t even consider and ltr in any capacity until he has a double digit n count at minimum.
It’s simpler to deal with one after you’ve dealt with a dozen.
@Blaximus
She was ready but she didn’t. He didn’t follow her and that’s it? Bobby Peru… Lol
@ IRL
Women are notorious for spinning guys up and giving blue balls. They’ll survive not always getting what they want sometimes, and it’s great to have the ability to teach them that mini lesson.
We are the actual prize.
… That chick thought about sentient all night, and it will continue throughout the day today.
