The Pick-Up Artist Episode #2

Last night, I watch the second episode of The Pick-Up Artist. Wow. You have to watch this episode. Whether you believe in this community or not, but what Spoon went through is real. Approach anxiety, approaching women, or however you want to term it, is not something not to take likely. It force this guy to quit the show. It is messed up.

As Mystery and wings tried to tell Spoon by doing this one thing, by quitting it will have repercussions in other areas in his life. Not many people see this or get this, but a simple at of giving up in an area of your life where you know you are doing poorly on set the ground for you to give up in other areas of your life. Staying a miserable relationship, staying in a dead-end job, etc...

And what is with all these miserable men and women taking shots at the show? Seriuosly, 60% of all marriages fail in this country. You see this crap everyday, women who hate their husbands, husbands that hate their wives, and no one willing to do anything about it except for cheat, drink, and do drugs. Are you kidding me? Yes, there is some cheese in the show, but taking shots at the Mystery and the participants is unwarranted. At least, they are trying to determine their fate unlike the millions of men and women in this country that wander around aimlessly letting life just happen to them.

Mystery's VH1 Show

If you have not heard Mystery has a VH1 Show called The Pick-Up Artist. There has been a lot of buzz in the seduction. Some think it is bad, some think it's good, some are worried.

What I did not expect was this from Gawker: Former Dungeon Master Reflects on How to Pick-Up Women. They beat up Mystery a little bit, today's : Mystery Loves Company Making Dorks into Dicks actually says some nice things about the show.

Also, I was listening to the radio, I forget what station where they ripped Mystery apart without even yet viewing the show.

I do not think you can beat this kind of publicity, it actually pushing people to watch it.

I did catch the show. I thought it was great. There is some parts I don't like but for the most part it was very good. I was surprised. From a viewer standpoint, I think it was a good reality show, from guy who is just trying to figure this out, I think it great to see the contestants and the teachers in the field. It really opened my eyes to some of my behaviors.

Hmmm...Maybe it's the heat

On my way to work today, there was a gorgeous (in the face, but big in thighs) woman standing outside the building, I walked up to her, said good morning, introduce myself; she reciporcated with a greeting and her name then ask where Starbucks was. I responded, "Right around, the corner, if you give me a minute to put my bags away, I'll walk you over there". Then I opened the building door for her, she entered I said hello to the security woman, walked to the elevator, let my mystery woman enter, then I enter. All the while, she is talking about how nervous she is about her interview later this morning, we enter my office, I put my stuff away and we head to Starbucks, I grab a coffee we chit chat a bit, she gives me her number and I head back to the office. <--- ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME? It can't be that simple and easy.

So of course, I tested it again. I was heading to lunch with co-workers as we approach the door to the restaurant, a cute Ethiopian was looking at me while talking to her friend (male); I walked up to her look at her friend and said 'excuse me' to him, introduce myself to her, she introduce herself and her friend, I said 'Look, it was great to meet ya, but I gotta back to my co-workers, what's the best way to contact you?' She rips out a business card and says 'give me a call maybe we can do lunch'. I said 'I have to check my schedule and get back to you' and said my goodbyes to both of them. COMMON ON NOW !!!

I was standing in line at Rite-Aid and the girl behind me was some small hottie from King Cove (Do you know where King Cove is? The outskrits of Alaska - almost Russia). Once again, I introduce myself and she introduce herself. We begin talking about how hot it which lead to let's get some ice cream which lead to me knowing where King Cove is and her phone number.

Three unintended sucesses today. Now, I did approach eleven other women with just an introduction, they led to brief conversations and died or we just said our goodbyes or have a nice day. Also, I felt like my heart was going to pop out of my chest during each of these approaches and a freaking rush after each one. But what has not gotten out of my mind is, it can't be this freaking easy to talk to good-looking women. It could be the sunlight and heat. But anyway, it gives me hope, because I have to work and can't play most week nights so playing in the day might be an option for me. Who knows?

Getting the Terminology down

After reading through one of the Mystery archives off of fastseduction.com, I have learned that some of my ratings are off. Not every girl is a HB.

Here's Mystery's rating:
UG (ugly): 0 to 7.5
(Used as pawns.)

B (babe): 8 to 8.9
(These are cute girls and worth chasing when you have been in a slump and need a pick me up.)

HB (hot babe): 9 to 10
(This is where you want to hunt.)

SHB (super hot babe):10 +
(This is reserved only for supermodels, playmates, penthouse pets, etc.)
