Compendium of pickup lines and other flirtatious one-liners for use in 2022 and beyond.
I was reminded to write a post on a favored form of teasing by a recent report on our forum.
In it, the thread starter (Fluxcapacitor) relentlessly teases the girl he ultimately beds by implying that either:
He wants to get rid of her, or
He thinks she is a pariah in general
For example:
Girl: (eagerly) I'm going to Pub X!
Flux: Oh cool, I know to avoid there then.
Another:
Girl: Oh well it sucks to be you! (playfully with a giggle)
Flux: It actually does! Then I come out here and bump into you! It just gets worse!
And another:
Girl: I know, I know. But this is where the cool people come.
Flux: I'm surprised they let you in (playful look)
Here's one more:
Girl: It sucks to be you.
Flux: It actually does, and now I've just spent all night with you, how bad is that?!
As a guy who enjoys giving girls a good ribbing, this kind of teasing is one I quite like too.
Today, we're going to take a quick look at how this "get rid of her" / "she's a pariah" teasing works.
One of the more important strategic abilities in seduction is that of logistics screening.
Your average guy has little ability to screen women for logistics. The result is that he wastes a lot of time talking to women who are logistically unavailable. Meanwhile, women who were far more logistically available slip away from him, unnoticed and unapproached.
A man who’s skilled at logistical screening, on the other hand, saves time, saves heartache, and enables himself to scoop up women with a consistency a more “logistically blind” man can only dream of.
How do you develop this ability to sniff out a woman’s logistics, and focus on the women who are more available (instead of the ones who aren’t)?
You learn the signs to look for – and the information to seek out.
You’ve probably had this happen:
You went out somewhere, just in your head, not in much of a social mood.
Some girl then appeared out of nowhere, trying to get your attention, smiling, tapping you, telling you, “Hey!”
And you, stuck in your head, responded with a stiff, stilted, “Oh, hey. What’s going on?”
She said, “Not much! How about you?”
You stumbled through a few more awkward phrases. You could tell she liked you and wanted to see if she could get something going with you, but you were just too out of it.
Then the moment passed. She realized you weren’t going to do much of anything. So she left.
Damn, another layup missed, you think.
There must be a way to snap yourself to attention and shift into gear when unexpected “gimmes” like this fall into your lap – right?
Most of the time you probably think of bragging as being a male behavior.
Most of the time you’d be right.
Sometimes, though, it isn’t. Sometimes girls brag, too.
There are different reasons why women will do it, and while we’ll discuss those, we aren’t overly concerned with them here today.
Instead, what we’re concerned with today is something different:
What to do when a girl brags to you.
Here’s something for our advanced players and up.
Once you are GOOD with girls, you will start finding yourself not uncommonly in situations where women like you too much. If you are an advanced player, you already know why this is bad.
(if you’re not an advanced seducer, you can read this article for educational purposes, though it might sound rather alien to you. Trying the materials from it may lead to calibration errors for you at this point now, too. Circle back around to it once you’ve leveled up; you’ll find it more useful, I promise)
When girls like you TOO much, they start envisioning a future with you, hit the brakes, and get nervous they’re going to screw it up with you if they let you move things too fast. This can completely sink your seductions.
We’ve talked about this a lot on Girls Chase when discussing the boyfriend zone and making it clear to women you’re NOT boyfriend material.
In this article we’ll go one further: not just not being boyfriend material, but actually calibrating your attainability to make sure the women you talk to don’t like you TOO much.
We’ll do that by using a range of tactics that, taken together, we can politely call “jerking.”
Often in seduction you will be presented with (or have the opportunity to present) group affiliation.
At this moment you're faced with three (3) choices:
Depending on the girl and the situation, your choice of what affiliation to show can make or break a seduction.
Group affiliation affects how similar a woman feels to you, a key aspect of the SAC seduction model. Make yourself too unaffiliated with a group she feels closely affiliated with, or too closely affiliated with a group she dislikes, and you may be too dissimilar for her to trust you.
On the other hand, sometimes being an outsider to a group she's a part of can work to your advantage... and sometimes being an insider to a group she isn't can too.
On my article “What an Average Girl's Dating History Looks Like” last year, reader 'Handome & Wealthy' commented:
Here's a quick Q on the part about not talking about yourself to a girl.
I do this a lot. My brand of game is the stong silent guy game. I've been told I'm "calm" "mysterious" "like a spy" and some girl even said I'm "distant" and "hard to get to know".
I'm still working on my calibration so I don't appear too detached.
But there's an issue I keep running into.
I meet girl. Hook. Then begin to deep dive without sharing much about myself. I'm careful not to go in too deep with the dives so the vibe is good. My conversations are interspered w/ a lot of flirting and mild cocky funny quips.
However after we part ways... the vibe changes. Changes bc the girl feels like she overshared and didnt get anything from me.
What goes here Chase? How do I stay detached without creating murky vibes after?
I referred him to my article on anchoring attraction, so that the emotions she feels in conversation with you don't evaporate once conversation ends.
But next I talked to him about something I see a lot of guys get wrong, especially guys who discover deep diving... which is to go straight into deep, contemplative conversation during that first initial interaction.
Early interactions should usually be fun, flirtatious, and light. You do not want them to be too heavy with meaty conversation and weighty emotions.
In today's article, I'll give you some tactics you can use to keep the initial interaction light and moving forward, without having to rely on deep dives (just yet).
As you approach girls, particularly in social venues, you are going to run into girls with guy friends.
Now, you might never approach girls with guys around them, but you should. A lot of girls go out with men they are 'just friends' with.
She might be the guy's wingwoman. She might be his ex-girlfriend (why some men go out with their ex-girlfriends I will never understand). She might be a girl he's crushing on but is deeply friend zoned with and has accepted that she's going to go off with other guys. He might be her dating app date she felt no spark with and now they're both just sort of hanging out to see if either of them can meet someone else.
If you're in a gay-friendly venue you will run into girls who are there with their gay male friend. I have picked up girls that looked like they were with a boyfriend at first, only to find out the guy was gay, and busy looking for his own guy to pick up at the same time the girl was.
Some guys will leave you alone as soon as you are talking to the girl.
But sometimes you will need to interact with them.
What's the right way to talk with a guy who is with a girl you want, who is not interrupting you or cockblocking you, but whose approval you are usually going to need?
