Game is marketing. Women are the customers. The women decide to buy or not. Success can be improved just by determining the best audience(type) for your product.

Has the false targeting of the Gamma been discussed in a recent post? I'm not familiar with what that exactly means, unless it refers to the general delusions of Gammas where they consider thoughts and intentions equivalent to actions.

Yes and no. I'm male. Currently, 55 yo, 56 soon. Seemingly Sigma no later than my early 20's. When younger, often, I was the pursuer. Occasionally, I was the pursued. Initially, the pursuer chooses. Ultimately, the pursued accepts or rejects the pursuer. All my favorite/best dating/sexual longest lasting relationships were when I was the pursued and I then chose to accept the pursuit/pursuer.

And it's always a good idea to stop listening to other people because they don't have your best interest in mind.

The best advice on the reality of female attraction to men is that they make their decision in about 3 seconds, and nothing you do can/will change her mind on it. Make your move, but be ready to move on just as fast if she's not intersted.

As the Irving Berlin song goes, "A man chases a girl (until she catches him)."

My delta dad always said that "he chased my mom until she caught him". My pretty brunette mother was initially put off by my dad's red hair, but she fell in love with him on their first date. She was 19 and he was 23. Six weeks later they were engaged. A year later they married. They raised 3 kids, and were married 55 years, until Mom died of cancer last year. My mom always adored my dad. Dad did pretty well for a Delta.

If my parents didn't fall for the COVID lies (clot shots and remdesivir), I think Mom would likely still be here. I think those things turbo charged her cancer.

Is it the other way around for high status men?

Years ago, I finally pestered my close Sigma friend into giving me an answer about whether or not he liked me, too, and he sat in complete and utter silence for two. whole. hours before he gave me an answer. I understood that he was deciding then not only if he liked me, but if he was going to choose me forever, and you better believe I kept my mouth good and shut, sat perfectly still, and hardly breathed. I distinctly remember my Delta father, who had given us some work to do (Sigma wasn't really interested, but I had to comply), walking into the room in a huff, looking from him to me, turning around and walking right out. After two hours Sigma said something to the equivalent of "yes, ok", And nothing I've done has been able to change his mind since. That was when he decided to say no to all other options and make staying with me the mission.

"...but also to quickly move on from those women to whom he is attracted but have no interest in him in search of more receptive individuals."

The key for women is signals. By the time an average man reaches his late twenties he's firmly in fail-faster mode. If a woman doesn't send a PERCEPTIBLE signal, poof, he'll disappear like a ghost."

In mating, the relationship between the sexes mostly resembles birds than any other creature I've ever thought of. The male preens, displays his fitness through a complex dance or nest building, and the female chooses between the males vying for her attention.

The only difference is the human female is able to use emotions and fake info to rationalize her choices once made. Which is good or bad, depending. Good in that it helps stabilize relationships when things get rocky. Bad in that she can rationalize poor choices or that, if the man screws up enough in front of his woman even while getting things done, she might rationalize ending the relationship when things are actually going ok.

Definitely a very helpful understanding. Probably one of the main mistakes that can be made when learning anything Game related is coming to a belief that "women have no *choice* but to fall head over heels for me!" "Get any woman you want!", never fully understanding how men can increase their attractiveness in general, but also how there will still be some women who don't want that.

I think Roosh wrote about this pretty well, when he described a situation where Fred Durst at the height of his fame, gets rejected by a woman he approached.

There was definitely a "Yep, this one" moment for me, very early on in talking to my now-husband. I suspected he was feeling the same way, so I stuffed my next email so full of encouraging hints to talk to my dad that even an autistic guy could pick up on it. 😁

There's very little chance of going overkill with encouragement to a Delta.
