http://www.asktheapproach.com Sat, 05 Apr 2008 15:52:33 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en Well, here we are: the end of my internship with Sebastian Drake and theApproach. It's been a brilliant, bonkers, eye-opening, limitation-shattering, endorphin-pumping few months, but graduation time had to come eventually. So, my final post. Jeez, what to say? I couldn't possibly do justice in one post to ... http://www.asktheapproach.com/archives/92 Hey guys, I'm going to share a "field report" I wrote up this weekend. It's long, and so I used the shorthand of the "pickup" community to get my thoughts down quickly and clearly. I'll go through the report now and put in little translations for those of you ... http://www.asktheapproach.com/archives/90 Ok, this is gonna sound like classic pickup marketing crap – "Hey guys, I only have a minute, there are two Playboy bunnies waiting outside for me in a Bugatti, but I'm gonna let you guys know about our awesome new product..." – but I actually do have to write ... http://www.asktheapproach.com/archives/89 Hey guys, I'm crazy busy right now with my first foray into academic scholarship, writing a paper that should hopefully introduce some cool new ideas about human behavior and generate some discussion among the tweed-and-bifocals crowd. But you know I've always got time for you! Here's what's coming down ... http://www.asktheapproach.com/archives/88 Hey guys, Time to go over my recent lessons with Sebastian. We've been doing a lot of personalized work on sticking points specific to me — one of the perks of the job, lads — so I'm gonna pull out the snippets that are more widely applicable and share those. ... http://www.asktheapproach.com/archives/87 I gave myself a new mission a few days ago. Official missions from Sebastian are still coming down, and I'll talk about some of those next post, but I'm self-assigning one as well. From now on, my default opener, the only one I'm allowed to use unless something ... http://www.asktheapproach.com/archives/86 Hey guys, quick one today. In fact, that's appropriate, since this post is about doing something quickly; namely, getting a girl's number. Give this a try: roll up and open with Genuine Interest ("going direct" for all y'all pickup kids), then after telling her she's cute or stunning or whatever, ... http://www.asktheapproach.com/archives/85 Hey guys, Here's the situation: a woman's leaving your place after the two of you have had sex for the first time… not too long after meeting each other. She's gathered up her clothes and gotten dressed, the cab's waiting outside, and she's halfway out the door. You're ... http://www.asktheapproach.com/archives/84 Ok, one more thing for today. This was told to me by the amazingly cool Scot McKay of X & Y Communications. We were chatting, and I mentioned a girl I'd kinda "blown it" with. I spotted her on Facebook (she was a friend's friend), contacted her, ... http://www.asktheapproach.com/archives/83 Good evening, ballers. I'm writing this from about 20,000 feet up, flying back from a wonderful vacation in Colorado with some old friends. I had a blast – we explored Denver and Boulder during the days, partied at night, and just enjoyed each other's company. I know ... http://www.asktheapproach.com/archives/82
