Re: Some Stuff About PUA (very long)
I don't like the games and tricks that are part of PUA nonsense. But, I have read The Game and it can be very applicable for real life. I am a confident good conversationalist, but at times in my life I have been a doormat. Never been a player, but never had problems with girls either. It is a weird comibination because I am a leader and assertive, but also am way too nice at times. Ultimately PUA stuff can be used to better understand all people and lead to better interactions with them. I can still be a nice guy without being soft about it. Every person has the ability to grow through the self analysis required as part of these ideas.
I feel the whole thing gets a bad name because the people you read about are nerds who can't talk to anybody getting "programmed" to pick up women. Just like anything rooted in psychology, there are simplistic negative ways it can be used, but overall it is a good thing for study.
