From the Date Design Chapter

There are 6 Basic Options when it comes to the logistics of the date.
  1. You pick her up
  2. You meet someplace centrally located
  3. Meet closer to you
  4. Meet closer to her
  5. She picks you up
  6. She drives over, and you drive her to the location
An intermediate player immediately sees which options are better than others.  A veteran player sees all the positives in all of the options.
Let’s go through them.
1. You pick her up
This is the traditional option.  And if you’re new to the game – this is not a bad option.
This gives you basic control over her movements the entire time of the date  But it’s one of those things to be noticed, and not abused.  A guy with zero empathy and entirely narcissistic will drive a chick out to Timbuktu
And the girl is just trapped with some lame.
As we talked about earlier – the main event of the date – movies/dinner/art gallery/pit bull fight – that should take between 90-120 minutes.  If the distance between her place and the main event is more than say 30 minutes – you’re going to have to keep a good conversation going.
A guy with empathy, with a smidge of understanding of the human condition will keep the chick within city limits.
So a typical pick her up looks like
  • You drive over.
  • You send her a text/give her a call
  • You walk up to her place
  • Knock on the door.
  • Maybe step into the foyer.
  • Leave without going deeper into her home.
  • Walk her to the car.
  • Open her door.
  • See if she even feigns an attempt to open your door – though hardly an issue in the days of keyless entry

And then you’re off to the races.
On Stepping Into Her Place
Getting into her place is a big deal, both practically and symbolically.  Even if she only lets you in part way – you can get a good gander of what the chicks is really like
It better be clean.
It better smell nice.
If she’s Asian, check to see where shoes are. (If they’re not right there at the doorway, make a mental note)
Undisclosed pets (if the dog doesn’t like you, that could be a problem)

The woman goes, “Well, we don’t know if Einstein will like you.”

“Well, can I meet with Einstein?”

“Yes, we’ll bring him to your house, but if he doesn’t like you, he can’t stay. We have to have good homes for these dogs.” She sounded very serious.

Okay. I have this really long driveway, and I open the gate for them, and I start to panic that Einstein is not going to like me. So I run into the kitchen, where I have these turkey meatballs, and I rub them all over my shoes.

High level game – where you don’t fall into the flow, where you don’t wish for the zone – where you actually use your brain – often requires a lot of problem solving.
The Social Default
The social default is that the man has his own place, and that he doesn’t enter hers just willy nilly.
With the pick up, and you have your own place – this isn’t something you HAVE to do.  But symbolically, entering her home is useful even still.
Getting In
Very formal chick – not possible to get into her house without a good reason.
Some chicks run late – and will let you pick them up, chill out for a hot second and then go.  This is nice. She is inviting you in.  Makes it easier to get back.
The threshold to her place is a big deal at the end of the night.
Overall, this is a pretty solid beginner plan.
2. Meet Someplace Central
For you city dwellers – the advantage to this is you can pick a place to meet that’s favorable, and the nearby places are favorable.
When I’m in NYC – I like to meet up at any given bar in East Village/West Village.  So a drink here, a drink there, and what do ya know, where back in Washington Heights in some 90% Dominican Tenement.
Malecon – Beginner’s level Dominican Food. Get the Mofongo de Camarones en Salsa Verde
So if you have to do a movie or a dinner, you know ahead of time
What is around you
Where to transition to from dinner
If the date is good, you don’t want it to end anywhere other than at your place, sharing a box of brownies.

Modern Game Tenets

https://youtu.be/Z1Foz-DgJMA
There is Game, a science practiced by the pimps, the macks, and the hustler.   I touch on that, but I’m no expert.  Better check for Rosebudd or Pimpin Ken if you want Game with a capital letter G.
Then there was the pick up era of the late 90’s to early/mid 00’s.   For the most part it was geeks that used the scientific method and freaks that would obsess about practical applications of applied psychology.
The “golden age” of the “community” was about thinking of new techniques, going out and testing them, and then reporting back results.  Things that people remember from that era were “peer reviewed”.  Negs and peacocking come to mind, but to me the most important thing was that the masterminds were 1) A standup comedian and 2) A magician.    Having a pile of jokes or a stack of tricks – things that you memorized the words and the delivery – that ALWAYS got emotional reactions from people.    The one currently disputed thing that those guys tested was that looks don’t matter, behavior does.
After getting exposed, the community went through a few iterations
– No more canned routines, everything was improvised
– A focus on charging up a girl’s emotional state, by you being charged up (the law of emotional transference)
– The Red Pill 2.0 – Looks matter, money matters, “Do you even lift Bro?”,  and feminism is evil. (and once you indict feminism, well everything else around it becomes fair game)
So what does Contemporary Game look like?
What can we learn from the various eras?
Modern game
– Lift and eat right. In the West where fat people vastly outnumber people with a healthy BMI – you’re killing the competition.
– Run a big score business (sales, crypto, investing – where you put in a decent amount of work and get paid in bundles, not by the hour) or a passive income business (physical products, e-products, services – laptop stuff).  This makes you time rich, future proof, and resilient to online witch hunts.
– Develop your personal look/brand style.  Maybe you want to look like a 1% motorcycle club member, or uptown baller, or a musician – go all the way.
– Always adapt to modern technology
– Social media game – carefully curated online existence that is for pleasure and for work.  You want to draw people in that know you in real life, that barely know you, and that don’t know you at all.
– Day game is a part of your daily life.  Socializing is a part of your daily life.  Where guys would focus on night game, the move is to now actually go out and trawl for women during the day.
– Dating site game – dating sites are manageable, provided you use the right ones, the right way.  And this means photo composition, photo quality, correct sequences of in-app messages, get her phone #, and more messages to finally get her out.
– Night game – in your hometown is not pure cold approach anymore but cold approach where you get the bang and the follower, or just the follower.   Waste nothing.
– One on one game, or group game, you have both an endless bag of ice breakers and party tricks, but you also are deeply centered.  Not detached, but experienced, and seeing through the games that people play.  Experience in field, but also from family, friends, relationships, meditation, religion, hobbies that improve you.
– Notch counts, special missions, are fun, but they will bore you.  A real and rich social life, where sex is one of many pleasures available.
I still think it goes back to night game and pulling chicks in real life, and that face to face skills are the key – but they’re no longer the only key.
