We all know it's presence. We hear it every day. "The country is going to hell". "Men are disposable" "Hypergamy is a newbies foe" "Once you break frame you're fucked"

So you go out on the prowl hyper vigilant and cognizant of what can go wrong. The minute details. The pitfalls. What not to do. Your asshole is constantly puckered. Your mind is racing. It's telling you how to behave.

"Fill the silence" "Say something clever and Sexy" "Don't say anything. Be mysterious" "Be stoic" "You're smiling too much"

At this point you are no longer in control. Your anxiety is at the helm and internally, your brain is on fire.

This is how men get ghosted. Women talk about this: "He was really sweet, but he was so nervous. I wanted to just give him a hug. I'm just not interested in dating my kid brother".

Bro you are not living in the moment. You're living in a doomed future filled with anxiety. You imagine a field report where you get called a sperg. The horror! The shame! You might not be a Chad. This is where most guys shut down. They become a robot: Girls says sentence = input I answer girl with Chad like comment = response This is not a conversation, it's similar to poorly coded AI.

So relax Broseph. Enjoy the moment. Here's something to tell yourself before and even during the date. Mistakes are part of the process. This is how you learn what to do and how you learn more about the woman you are currently on a date with or gaming.

The second tool in your arsenal is humor. A confident man can laugh at his mistakes without being overly self depricating. This shows you can handle criticism and feedback without being a little bitch about it.

Get out of your head. Have fun. Say dumb and ridiculous shit. Laugh. Show your date that your human. Keep it light in a culture of heavy doom and gloom. Women will appreciate it. And furthermore, you won't pause in the middle of the date. You won't be thinking "I fucked up and lost frame".
She won't see this and think ,"I think he's trying to hold in a fart".....

This is not sexy. A true alpha will let it rip and laugh about it.

Now go out and un-pucker that butthole.
