(I know why people believe this, its just a rhetorical bash-your-face-into-wall question)

I've seen worse guides.
There are useful tips in there.
Ridiculously specific though.
Also TL:DR, I stopped halfway and formed the above half-assed opinion.

Wow... all that when it could just say:

Act like a human being, treat everyone else like a human being.

I mean are there guys really so disconnected that they don't know how to have a conversation or flirt without a frickin chart?!

Somebody send that to Bruce Lee's daughter so she can send them a cease & desist letter.

That's pretty much what I was thinking. The advice isn't bad, either for flirting with the opposite sex or for making friends, PRESUMING IT'S FOR ROBOTS.

I guess the people who are attracted to PUA simply have very poor social skills and low EQ, so concepts like "talk to people. Be interested in what they have to say. If you like them, demonstrate liking" are pretty elusive for them.

Yeah, if these kinds of things were "Advice on how to be more social" that would be great, but couched in "Advice on how to be more social SO YOU CAN GET TEH SEX" just ruins the advice.

Me. But then, I know better than to rely on charts. I just don't talk to people.

It really is as simple as "be yourself".  Especially if you are looking for an actual relationship.  It's best to be legit and real upfront.

For most people, yes. You might want to consider other tactics. :lulz:

"Honest, Babe, I forgot where I live"

That kind of legit and real?

I think she might get rather upset if I started acting like someone else.

She's been to my place, but this thread isn't about me, try and keep it on topic.

I'm glad they added the word (safely) to the 'take her hand and twirl her around like a ballerina. I'll bet that's where a lot of guys mess up.

I think you are probably correct.

Straight forward and honest is usually the most effective for me.

I've been meaning to throw some rage at PUA's in general for a while. The more I consider it the worse it gets. I think the OP's given me the kick I needed.

Fun to taunt because they get SUPER defensive about it.
