Screening out low self esteem women? All women have low self esteem. Insecurity is one of the defining features of female nature, along with hypergamy, resource extraction, and group think/cognitive dissonance.

I've added it to the MRP sidebar a few years back. Once you are past the anger phase and realize it's not about 'her' but about 'you' it's a great way to learn how to be congruence in your approaches.

Author is Joseph W. South, an old school PUA. He's who I borrowed the concept of the early frame announcement from as it was a great observation about female behavior. Look up his interview on Pickup Podcast if it's still available. Good info.

Just got out of a relationship with a girl who had seriously low self esteem. Luckily, I was only with her for 5 months. If I wasnt trying to build up her self esteem, I was arguing with her ( big mistake I know and I just recently learned about arguing with women). Regardless she wasnt worth the trouble even though I thought she possessed relatively good feminine qualities. Seriously the low selfesteen one are not worth it.

I read the first couple chapters and the most salient point so far is that comparing lovers and providers, providers try to exert control over a woman by material or physical means, whereas lovers do not exert any control, but elicit attraction and don't make her feel judged. Taking on responsibility tends to inspire one to also take control, which she no likey.

"Then you start to promote her unwittingly. Then you appreciate her unique hurt. Then you start treating her better than you normally would."

This part is right on. Know damaged goods when you see them. The name of the game is boundaries. No one crosses those lines.

So what's the five point TLDR on the book?

I once attempted to fuck a girl in highschool. Ok, more than once, but those are other stories. I got her number, I started texting and, looking back it would have been a very easy lay, but might not have been worth the trouble.

I dropped all interest after the first day of texting. Reason being the constant barrage of "hey" followed by "why arent you replying?" a minute later, followed by "do you hate me? what did I do?". Extremely low self esteem, girl wasnt very attractive and I was fishing the bottom of the barrel. Showing the slightest interest towards her, and she glommed onto me.

Then come the tests. Every "do you like me?" and "why arent you replying?" is her, on her end, going into hysterics over whether or not she has any value. Simultaneously she's testing to see what kind of man I am. Do I just want sex? Am I gonna out up with her insanity? Am I going to be a constant, codependant source of validation for this parasitic creature?

The lower a womans self esteem, the more crazy shit she has to do for validation. Theres the damsel in distress who gets too drunk so someone has to save her, or she threatens suicide. All kinds of behaviours where she creates a retarded situation just to see whether or not the people around her will support her.

Written by 3 men that have had apparently lots of experience with women.

So like every quick easy pickup artist book over the last 30 years.

The section on Ambivalence and Subcommunication, and how to use them to communicate with women is an eye opener on how to be extremely seductive to women. They are proof why Agree and Amplify tactics work. Thanks for this great read!

You're very right, one must always have a plan. Thanks for the book recommendation
