pickup not in bars or clubs?

[Deseo]

I've never liked going to clubs. I would go with my friends hoping that some miracle would happen and I might get laid. When I would go to these places the only time I could enjoy myself was when I got drunk and started dancing. I would try and talk to girls but my voice could seldom be heard over the deafening 'music'.

Once I discovered PU and the community, I started having more success in bars. I would approach girls and sit with them talking etc. In clubs however I was still ineffective. I decided not to go to clubs anymore, as the only reason I was going was to try and get laid.

I haven’t been to a bar in about a month and I have basically given up alcohol. After hearing the David D interview with 'Ken' I started thinking about building my social circle and meeting girls through that instead of going out of my way to 'sarge'.

I am wondering what you fellow PUAs think about this method.

I remember seeing Doc on the Cliffs List DVDs and he said he didn't need to go to clubs as he got enough dates through social networking. This would fit in more with my personality and the identity which I have created for myself.

I know Mystery has said that he doesnÂ’t really like clubs but it's the best place to practice PU. I agree with that, and perhaps taking the route of social networking will be slower, but I am willing to accept that.

I am also curious to know what you guys think the best method is for this form of PU?

When I first started trying to 'social network' this way I tried using no model but instead just using techniques like cocky funny, qualifying etc. This worked alright but I wasn't getting the results I wanted. Since then I have started using MysteryÂ’s Method on all girls I am attracted to. I will open, neg, receive IOIs etc. It's too early to say how effective this is; at the moment it seems to be working quite well :-)

I personally like the slow pace of day game, and campus game, I've evaded clubs and parties, which might change though when I turn 21

thats the best way to do it. most guys center around clubs or bar game because they think it's easier. sometimes thats the case but not always.

Social circle was some of my favorite methods, but I always enjoyed bar or day game. Campus game is fun but not so much at the same time.

Clubs and bars are noisy, if they cant hear you they cant respond to you. By all means, practice wherever you go, but these are NOT the best choice. Girls EXPECT to be hit on in these places, and they have the BS up to full capacity. You can use that, but its still easier to avoid the whole mess.

With regard to networking, thats easy You just practice your social skills wherever you go, with everyone, and you just go further with the ladies you are interested in. Whether you're on campus, in the grocery store, walking down the street, out bowling with friends, there are always opportunities to expand your circle and meet new prospects. Half the people out there are women, so you should always be ready to meet and seduce the ones you like Even people you are less interested in can lead to other really lucrative meetings. So find out what there is to like about everyone. Give them a chance to get into your circle and help you out.

I am against social circle game, i mean unless ur looking for a girlfriend, a one night stand with a friend of a friend might leave things awkward around all your other friends...

if you are not a fan of clubs or bars try searching for some articles on "day game" metting women at parks, movies, malls, coffee shops, anywhere really.
