Saturday night I ruined a Pickup Artist's "set"

OP is lame as hell for that



and this shit is lame as hell. OP could've said anything derogatory about the guy and that would've turned them off. True or not.

I dunno what's with the trend on gaf of acting like all women need to be "rescued". That shit is transparent as hell implies that women are incapable of making their own decisions.

I agree, women can make their own decisions which are 100% influenced by random drunk strangers in the bar. If it wasn't for OP that guy would still be having a threeway to this day.

Being an introvert, I wouldn't be at a bar at all. If I was it's because I was there from peer pressure from friends. The whole time I'd be too busy with wishing I was home or just hanging out with fewer people. Not thinking about picking up hawt slutz.

I'm not saying this to contribute to the PUA debate going on here, but it's worth mentioning that being an introvert doesn't mean being incapable of enjoying going to a bar (or wherever else) with friends. You certainly can't generalize introverts, either.

Meh.

OP's actions kind of suggest that view. Critiquing OPs actions does not suggest that you think the PUA was going to get more than a larger tab.

The amount of people implying that op is 'white-knighting' to get laid is strange considering that he's already said he has a partner and thus wasn't looking for sex. It's almost as though here's some projection going on there!

Pretending to have a girlfriend when staging a set on targets is a pretty standard method for bypassing subconscious defenses. It is basically a neurological hack to activate a woman's biological need for male attention and sperm.

I wish I was a hot PUA like you and not an ugly AFC :( Save me freenude-senpai!
 
OP's continued attempts to play this off as just having a laugh and not understanding why anyone is taking it seriously are great. I want to see more of those posts.

One doesn't need sexual motives to be a white knight...he could just be a hater.

I actually dislike the term "white knight", but this is like, a textbook example. He went out of his way to ruin the vibe of complete strangers because he thought the guy was too cheesy and rehearsed. It's like if I was telling a joke to someone and a passerby just runs up and blurts out the ending.

If you walk up to a guy/girl at a bar and say "Hey, I don't wanna be in your business, but I saw that guy/girl you're talking to go home with a random stranger twice in the last month," you'd be slut-shaming and cock-blocking, and I wouldn't approve of that either. And yet, all you did was "innocently" pass on some information.

I had to do a double take on this.
then I realized who the poster was >_>
 
I think women are capable of making their own decisions, both good and bad. Unless you see a dude roofie some girls drink, there is no point in stepping in. Guy was having fun, and if they decided to get with him...so what?
 
I think it's extra funny how some posts are pretty much saying his behaviour would have been okay if he hooked up with the girls himself. I mean really, it's like "wtf op now we have two chicks who didn't get banged at all! Damn it!"
 
Lamest shit ever.

I'm not going to read a 4 page thread to see if you have a feeble excuse for why you know all that pick up artist jargon and acronyms, so I'm just gong to go ahead and assume you washed out of PUA school and we're just plain jealous seeing a more social guy trying his luck.

Whoah, careful with that edge, you might poke your eyes out
 
It's not something I'd ever do but I'm having trouble caring or thinking the OP is so terrible.

Maybe people are being hyperbolic.. This just seems "kinda lame" not worthy of the amount of scorn thrown around.
 
Wait so OP went and cockblocked a stranger because he just wanted too?

Dick move

Also in my head im.imagining Penelope Cruz and Salma Hayek at the other table.
 
He forgot to neg the girls and DHV, dude sounds like a total AFC. He'll never become AMOG with those kind of routines.
my older bro was really into this shit for a while, don't judge me.

I think that it's more insulting that he self-imposed himself to them as some sort of super-hero, there to inform them, to warn them off the potential "danger" of a man talking to them, as if those two women were too innocent, naive, foolish to figure out that they were being hit on for the past hour by the guy and that only he, the op, could save them from the horrors of social interaction with this guy.

I am sure they were very much aware of it, thank you Mr Bar Avenger. They didn't need to have a random drunk stranger to sit uninvited at their table to tell them what to do and how to handle the situation.

Straight talk - they would had ditched the guy real fast a long time ago if he had turned out to be abrasive or annoying to them. They probably left because they were worried that it would degenerate into a fight between you and him if they stuck around with the guy; they didnt want the drunk bar avenger to show up again to "save" them.

Yup.

OP is still too prideful to just say "Yeah Ok that was dumb. I was dumb."

Dudes must have a personal connection to this kind of thing. lol. it doesn't matter whether PUA dude was successful or not. It's not your business. It's not the OP's or anyone else's place to interfere with someone's conversation for the sake of sabotaging their character.

That's fuckery of the highest degree.
 
Some guy tried to pick up my girl at Starbucks the other night. I was over getting sugar for my coffee while my girl is waiting for her order. When I come back I see he's struck a conversation with her.

The guy asks if she's a model, blah blah, where she worked. She told the guy she was a resident. Then the guy says "is that a nurse?" My gf says "No a resident". The guy says "so a Nurse then." At this point I'm chuckling and I interrupt their conversation and say "Bro a resident is not a nurse nice try though." He gets flustered and starts apologizing and then leaves to pretend to stand in the line for the bathroom. I'm still chuckling to myself and he's standing in line, so I turn to my fiance and say "I can't believe he thinks a nurse is a resident" and I'm laughing. The guy turns to me and says, "Yea man you find that funny, huh?" I turn to him and say "Don't worry bro, I'm still laughing" He gets out of the line and walks outside with his buddy. Real alpha.

I'm fine with PUA techniques or whatever, but if you have no confidence when trying to pull it off that shit's lame and more often than not you're falling flat on your face. Relax and be funny when you're talking to girls, I mean, how hard could it be?

I agree with you.

The canned routines are so wacky, but apparently there like training wheels for those who don't have much experience with bantering.

Similar to sales rookies, you usually work from a script.

I just shared the story here and got a nice long thread going.

the man was clearly negging and you interrupted his set. at least let him attempt phase one kino before throwing up an amog breaker.

Well, maybe, but I don't cheat on my GF.

Imagine this thread if I was all "Oh yeah and then I totally picked up those two and we banged all night. Hope my GF doesn't find out!" Just terrible.

The guy could have been ill-confident and tried to muster up anything to strike a conversation with her. It would have been more interesting to let your girlfriend respond and handle the situation. And "real alpha," seriously?
 
OP, I give respect for giving the ladies a heads-up. Whether or not they were still interested after your heads up has nothing to do with you. ::tips glass and nods head::

The issue I find with most PUA tactics is that they are meant for use by people with at least some solid social skills.

Too many people, including some acquaintances of mine, try the PUA shit to get laid, but then they wouldn't even be able to make small talk with a cashier at a grocery store.

Lately?

Threads that past a couple of pages normally devolve into good guy/bad guy discussion, then someone goes out of line, then bans are handed out, then the conversation dies down.

Rinse and repeat.
