Stephen Nash Review - "You Want A Girlfriend?"

We know Stephen Nash (the famous online dating guide/instructor) from the Project Hollywood days. He was company to other popular pickup artists, dating gurus like the ones of Papa, Jeffy, Tyler and many more. He is also one of the first pilot batches of the seduction community out there. Currently, he's the MD of Cutting Edge Image Consulting and act as a dating guide for the various guys who seek his help. So, let's see what's the deal with Stephen Nash.

Strengths

To start with, I must say I have recently started getting his e-newsletters (a great online dating guide for men) and I can say one thing, this guy GETS IT! No I'm doing an advertisement here, don't worry. I've read thousands of dating materials and I've learnt one thing. That is "you can never be a dating guru, you just keep on learning...".  After reading his "How to Get a Girlfriend" dating guide eBook available online, I felt like "He is so NATURAL", and this guy keeps on innovating new concepts and ideas every now and then. Visit his blog and you will know why I say so. He presents the most profound thoughts and realities in such an clear and down-to-earth, practical tone that it sure helps any guy out there. Even if you don't get his book, you will want to get hold of his dating online newsletters or the 10 free "how to get girlfriend" lessons that he gives to his free subscribers. They are SO informative and I iterate the one trait that I like about it so much is its HONESTY, TRUTHFULNESS and PRACTICALITY. You may strive towards becoming a full-blown pickup artist, but yes, if you want to inculcate an in-depth understanding of the art called Dating Women, you got to study him.

Weaknesses

He's not the one who tries to create controversies and publicity by bringing something weird  onto the table, but rather goes down deep into it and brings out the already present parts in a much more convincing manner. Though, he can be costly...the one-on-one sessions, they are worth it I think. And while he may not be able to teach you turnkey quick-fix gimmicks and routines that you can use tonight such as RSD and Love Systems, a long term association with him will turn you into a better man, giving you an original perspective providing a much clear picture of the dating game…

Before I finish, to add my own remark, a short simple comment... Stephen Nash is one of the best (though underestimated, I feel so) online dating coaches/instructors, providing invaluable dating advice, acting as a guide for men... at least after so much study, that's what I think!

Neil Strauss (Style) Review - "It's a Game, Baby!"

Who in the community doesn't know about Neil Strauss? The author of the famous "The Game" and the sequel "The Rules of the Game"... He is better known as Style. Well a generic introduction to Neil Strauss would be that he is a well-known writer in the Rolling Stone Magazine (for which he has quite social proof as well).He was once an accomplice of Mystery like Nick Savoy and Papa (the online dating coaches you are going to read about as scroll down).

Anyway, let's go straight to the dissection part:

Strengths

He is a master of attracting and flirting with women (damn good and it's proven in the field). He is very subtle in pulling them towards him and making them qualify themselves to him, eventually becoming his biggest fan and lover.....Social status... He is very strong in this game (already proved in the game), and I would say his 'style' (no pun intended) is best for the shy, more reserved guys out there. He will teach you the basics of the game and will mold them so that you can 'threatlessly' use them in the normal world. Well, I use the word "threatlessly" because most of the time that holds our success  (mainly, the shy nerds) with women is our FEAR. And there's two way to get around it: Either face it and overcome it or evade it. And he shows you the way how to detour it to the end.

Weaknesses

It has been reported often that Neil is not good at approaching women. He just doesn't like to socialize much. He gets women through his social circle or hookups more often and know how to attract them. That's it. He uses his status as a famous author well and it has been seen that he more or less doesn't mingle that much with other PUAs. He is very obsessed with status and maneuvers his status game to attract girls and women. As a online dating coach, he might be worth a visit but given the expensive fees that he charge from his students (though not sure if he teaches or not), he is not worth that much investment.

As has been recounted more often by recognized people of the community....

Neil Strauss - Status obsessed

Tyler Dryden - Power obsessed

Mystery - Attention obsessed

David De Angelo Review - "Double Your Dating" with Women

If one online dating guru has to be named out of all, that has to be Eben Pagan. Couldn’t recognize him? Well then you might have heard about the famous 'Cocky-Funny' women and dating concept, haven’t you? Yeah. Now you guessed it. It’s David De Angelo or in short David D. He is a real estate business and regards it as his main profession. But concurrently, he acts as a onine dating guide for men as well.

I’m receiving his e-newsletters (one of his many online dating guides, containing dating advice for men) for quite some time; in fact, he was one of those online dating instructors who I started following at the very onset of my journey. He promises to DOUBLE YOUR DATING life and might I say, he does that (this guy knows a lot about women and dating).

Strengths

What I liked about Mr. David is his simplicity and directness. Not to speak of the clear-cut verified dating truths about women and dating, he presented in the most elucidating informative manner. Man, this guy knows how to teach! It’s one thing to be a player and another thing to be a coach. I bet anyone my entire dating knowledge that he is one highly knowledgeable and “understandable” online dating guide/philosopher/friend among the online seduction masters community. Each of his books, “On being a Man”, “Double Your Dating” and many more, in addition to the wide range of CDs and DVDs, propagates the message the most basic way. I believe there are two parts of the Double Your Dating eBook guide. Starting from what attraction is to how to maintain a strong game, how to be a man and how to understand a woman, he says it all and all are so true! If his name doesn't attract you, his online dating guide materials (eBooks, audio/video CDs, workshops, etc) need to be checked out for every newbie in the gruelling wicked dating field, if you know what I mean. Just adding another weapon to your arsenal…

Weaknesses

One of the most common complaints that I get to hear about David is that he ADVERTISES his cocky-funny concept. Yes, he does. If you read his online newsletters daily circulated on new-age women and dating concepts, you would come to notice that very soon. I used to hate those e-newsletters due to this for quite some time and stopped reading them. Inbox, delete, inbox, delete… But very honestly, when I read "Double your Dating" ebook guides (both the volumes) a number of times, I got infected by it. I understood the depth of his dating advice for men, and I can now declare myself as ONE OF THE BIGGEST FANS of his online dating guides. The key lies in digging out the good from the bad and that’s what you got to learn.

And always remember the most famous line of the master of women and dating, David De Angelo and a verified truism: Attraction is not a Choice!

Swinggcat (Real World Seduction) Review

Meta-frame, Prize and Prizability – One guy flooded the whole seduction community with his most original dating concepts. He is Swinggcat. I don’t know why these guys who flock the virtual dating community take on a pseudonym but anyway, it doesn’t matter, does it? What matters is what they are coming up with.

Real Seduction method mainly focuses on how to make women come after you. He believes that women are not to be chased but rather are made to chase you. If you think about it, this dating concept is an old one, BUT… but it is always enlightening when it comes out with some new dimension to the whole old story, ain’t it?

Strengths

I’d suggest any newbie in the dating field to learn the concept of “push pulling” from this guy. With a number of social wrestling skills, this guy makes sure that you are always in control of the girl and she ends up getting crazy about YOU. And sure it works, man. (I don’t know what others think). If you understand the concept of push-pull, meta-frame, prize and prizability, you should know that you are way ahead of other ordinary guys who are chancing on your girl. It is an intricate confusing process from how to approach women to how to get laid with them. There is a typical courting process that presses all the attraction buttons and that is what is called the GAME. And real seduction method teaches you the GAME.

Weaknesses

One of the main weaknesses (perhaps, it is not a weakness at all) of this particular online dating item is that it doesn’t present any unique concept into the picture but rather focuses on MARKETING its new package of the old “product”. Well, what I feel is if the old product is the only viable product then what can be done? But the main thing that should be kept in mind is whether it works or not and if we learn something from it or not. If we look at it properly, we do understand that Real Seduction Method is a complete original from another original one, and man, did I say it is one of the best online dating programs out there.

Mystery Method (Venusian Arts) Review

Let me share with you something. When I first set off in this marvelous world, I clutched the hands of SoSuave.com (brainchild of Allen Thompson). Soon, there from I went on to learn about a list of dating coaches who are out there to help the single guys get girlfriends. They are out to change the dating lives of the male community of the world and one of the foremost of them was Mystery (real name: Erik Von Markovik).

He created his own “get women” method that was based on a whole indirect approach. Starting from how to approach women to how to get laid, they analyzed the whole process, broke them into bits and assimilated the parts into digestible bits. These figured out a whole new dating product and a uniquely original seduction system called the Mystery Method. It includes PUAs like Mystery, Matador, Lovedrop, etc.

Positives

If I have to say something about Mystery Method, I’d put forward its ORIGINALITY. It was completely a new of its kind and was a breakthrough in the seduction community. To be honest, Mystery method was kind of a pioneer in the world of pick-up women art. It formulated a whole scientific methodical dating model that aimed to create a new genre of men, the pick-up artists. Mystery, in the introduction of its book “the Mystery Method”, clearly differentiated between the pick-up artists, players and seducers. Players are insecure, seducers are wrong in their process and he alluded to the point that true seducers are ultimate pick-up artists. Mystery was the first to turn this whole mumbo-jumbo into an exact science that follows the process below:

Opening -> Transition -> Attraction -> Comfort/Rapport -> Seduction -> Relationships

Negatives

One of the biggest problems of these online dating products or dating sites is that they are cramped with an information load. Lots of dating tips, advice, plenty of dating advice, all tucked in together in a incoherent manner that the normal ordinary guy who never had come across this seduction stuff will find it hard to imbibe the paramount dating or courting fundamentals. Moreover, it is highly likely that the stiff model will turn them into “social robots” (as termed by Style, one of the best friends and a renowned dating coach in the world; you can check his website: http://www.stylelife.com)

Moreover, I shouldn’t critic anyone as a person but I feel Mystery is an insecure person and his dating model is reeking with insecurity. But don’t be fooled, this seduction method has the potential to get single guys the best of the quality women out there, whether they are 18 years old chicks or full grown working women, whether they are single or committed.

As it is said, if you want a long-term relationship and marriage, he might not be the best man to contact to, but when it comes to becoming a PICK-UP ARTIST, he is the BEST in the world and you want to meet him (though he is a bit expensive nowadays).

Love systems Review

A short flashback! You have heard of the Mystery Method. Its founder was Mystery and his right hand accomplice was Savoy. But over time, Nick Savoy broke away to form a completely new dating system called the Love Systems. There are several high profile dating maestros  like Braddock, Tenmagnet, Brad P, and many more included in the team.

Let’s talk about the Love Systems.

Strength:

The social peculiar dynamic of men-women, which confuses us so much, is cut down to a clear-cut, easily understandable method, that develops and refines the underlying in-depth dating concepts introduced in the Mystery Method in a much, much better way. Gives you a basic understanding of women psychology and is mould to the ways of the real world for the real people. Starting from grooming to the attitude you should have, how to approach women anytime, anywhere to how to handle girlfriends of friends, from day game (bookstore, shopping mall, cafe) to night game (clubs, bars) to how to get laid in a day, they are a complete seduction manual and one of the best online dating products – they tell you all. What I totally love about this program is the in-depth theoretical knowledge that they project. And believe me, I’d the gift of understanding psychology and I can assure you, these guys understand it to the roots. In fact, I learnt a lot about how to get women from them. What I like about them is the “It is what it is” approach to the whole thing.

Weakness:

Too much analysis and you are paralyzed. Most of the MM guys or the Love systems guys I have seen are so much into observing and calculating, rather than acting. They should know that this product is meant for taking action and not only for study. If you can apply this mine of information in your life, you will turn into a PLAYER in no time!

They offer courses through manuals, DVDs, audio CDs, etc. The best manual is of course the Magic Bullets (But don’t expect any magic bullet in there!) that lists out the whole dating game in a very simple yet comprehensive manner. Did I say about their routines manual? Routines are a stack of dating gambits that you can use over and over again in the field. Though routines are not suggested since they are canned and they suck up the naturality from the player, or rather in a better way, the pick-up artist. But they help as crutches and Love systems come with two manuals, Routines Volume I and Routines Volume II.

To sum it up, if you are new in this seduction game, you want to use the online dating courses of Love systems as the base for the more advanced courses ahead.

Real Social Dynamics (RSD) Review

First came the Blueprint, then the Blueprint Decoded. And they literally took the world of pick-up artists by storm. Yes, I’m talking about Real Social Dynamics, namely founded by one renowned dating master Tyler Dryden (not his real name though), who was destined to be greater than he already was. As described in the book The Game by Neil Strauss (aka Style), one of the best friends of Mystery, Real Social Dynamics actually started from the Hollywood Mansion erected by Mystery. This guy Tyler Dryden came to learn the dating game from Mystery but ended up driving him out of that mansion itself. No, I’m not here to judge who was right and who was wrong but stating the fact or rather what was reported to the world.

Anyway, let’s discuss about Real Social Dynamics now.

Strengths:

We guys know that we like things to be simple and smooth. Too puzzling and we are out of it. Just the way we are. If there is one cult of pick-up/seduction artists that understands the women psychology and the dating dynamics completely, and then, combines the competent knowledge with a straight-to-the-point simple and NATURAL way of applying it for us GUYS, that would be Real Social Dynamics (one of the most popular online dating products). They talk about value, they talk about supplication (meaning impressing), they talk about approaching women, they talk about seduction but where they differ from the rest is that they make it darn simple. They don’t assume a pedestal like “ok, we are pickup artists, we are exception to the rule” but rather present it like “hey man, if a fucker like me can do it, why can’t you? Just keep at it, ignore and plow through, it’s easy”.

They keep reiterating one rule of the thumb of the dating game: It’s all about VALUE.

Weaknesses

To be honest, I gave a quick read over their Blueprint and the Blueprint Decoded, and unfortunately, found nothing that groundbreaking in that. But it should be noted, the presentation was no-doubt very to-the-point and easy comprehensible for any ORDINARY GUY out there, and it focused on the dating fundamentals coupled with a few ingenious dating tips and tactics here and there, which made it so valuable.

They come in various forms and I might add it is highly popular online dating product within the seduction community and my giving any negative opinion will be refuted by a thousand other guys. You can go to their website Real Social Dynamics to learn more about them. My opinion is Real Social Dynamics, complemented with the Mystery Method forms a very basic and core theoretical foundation for the road ahead.

Vincent Di Carlo Review (Natural Game)

Don’t ask me where he came from and what his father name was. In fact, I was introduced to his dating materials much later, and would I say I was blown away by the depth and directness of them. Okay, as been done with the earlier ones, let’s talk about it.

Now, you should remember that Vincent Di Carlo criticizes the approach that these Real Social Dynamics and Love systems take (To be honest, I cannot deny anything about Love systems because they are so basic and so TRUE in the regular world). Vin Di Carlo is a big proponent of the NATURAL GAME. Natural game is disregarding that it’s a game and rather following your embedded sexual nature. Rather this is an excerpt from his dating website “Vindicarlo”: “Truth be told, west-coast style pickup artists such as Mystery and Neil Strauss have a very different style from the Natural Game movement which had its roots in New York City and Boston, spearheaded by Vin Di Carlo.”

Strengths

Some of the recent developments in the “picking up women” culture show a new trend that believes that trying to maintain higher value and trying to make her lose to you in the dating game is the way to her heart is actually a child of insecurity and goes on to bring a new philosophical aspect in here. It maintains that we humans are sexual creatures and women want men, as a rule of their deeply embedded sexual nature. It declares the only key to natural game is to follow our sexual nature throughout. They believe that this results in the deep emotional and sexually charged intimate emotional soul bond that you don’t get by resorting to some useless dating manipulations or maneuvers. Vin Di Carlo proposes the following method:

Open Direct -> Rapport -> Seduction… The only rule that it advocates is “Assume Attraction”. Actually, Vin Di Carlo is a big fan and follower of Gunwitch.

This type of game reduces number of flakes and makes for solid conversion rates by a drastic extent, as is proven from the field.

Weaknesses

Well let’s be true here. I’m a big proponent of the direct natural game and a big fan of the Attraction Code Book, but my stay in this field for so long a time has made one thing clear to me and that is “too direct, sometimes you win; too indirect, sometimes you win”. And we don’t want something that promises us win “sometimes”. Though it reduces number of flakes, wastage of time and energy, and provides a better chance to get quality girls, we need to be able to pull it off most of the time, natural game is more of a direct game. But then again, natural game is somewhat different from the direct game. And that's why, needless to say, natural game is much better than direct game and indirect game.

My suggestion: learn the Natural Game but from the one who knows Natural Game.

Gunwitch Review

If I don’t include one person among this list, it would be really incomplete, and he is Gunwitch. And mind you, I revere this guy very much and a big fan of his teachings.

The method is based on our deep ingrained sexuality and how to connect with that to seduce the woman you want. His tagline “Make the ho say no” only can turn you into a magician in the dating field. If you check his online dating materials out, you would find them to be very simple and really too simple to even seem to be effective at first.

Strengths

What you got to do is just roll up to the woman and talk with her on daily non-personal or lightly personal topics and slowly moving in all the way. But the essence of this game is that you have to be highly in tune with your sexual state, and everything is done on a subconscious level. That’s the key to this dating game. You get aroused and your arousal seduces her to arousal, as simple as that. You are a predating tiger and you go straight for your kill, but you keep it very subtle as your prey wants to get killed all the way. It’s not picking up women but rather, (I’d say) seducing women. Your aroused state and huge persistence are the main factor at work (though there are several other things as well).

And strangely enough, you would surprised by the high number of success met on the field following this method.

Weaknesses

Though very powerful, it might be rocket launcher but definitely not a sniper rifle. But also let me add that I’ve met guys who advocate Gunwitch’s method and say that they have got the women they wanted, just by being the horny tiger, and it can be dare-said that it is one of the best online seduction manual out there.

Can’t say anything on this and would only tell you to visit www.gunwitch.com to learn more and decide for yourself.

Ross Jeffries (Speed Seduction) Review

To be true to you guys, I’m not doing justice to the name of the blog by writing about this person BECAUSE I REALLY HAVEN’T READ ANY OF HIS MANUALS OR GONE THROUGH ANY OF HIS DVD PROGRAMS. But I just couldn’t keep him out of my list. See, I told you I will bring the best of the best (at least, according to me) and keeping in mind, his popularity in the world of online dating coaches, I had to mention his name here. Having said that, don’t expect me to list down the positives and negatives of this person. I refuse to give my judgment but I would rather give you a brief idea of what his courting or dating process entails from the various feedbacks from other guys who have tried his products and also from the email newsletters that I’ve started to get now of late.

As the story goes, Ross Jeffries and Mystery were die-hard competitors and Ross Jeffries was a very harsh critic of the Mystery Method. But as luck would have it (or rather talent would have it), a few years after the entry of Mystery into the secret world, he soared to the number one spot and completely eclipsed the popularity of Ross Jeffries, and even stole some of his students too.

Now, let me just tell you what Speed Seduction actually comprises of. Have you heard of NLP? It stands for Neuro-Linguistic Programming. His basic idea is that seduction is nothing but smoothly and skillfully seducing the psychology of the other person. With some special tricks and routines, you can successfully get control over the subconscious wiring of the person and thus, direct her conscious actions towards the specific way you want. But from his e-newsletters, I can tell you one thing this guy has a good grasp over the subject and also provides some unique concepts into the realm. Ross Jeffries is one of the founding fathers of this secret seduction community; with his innovative and effective online dating guides, he has helped a lot of students all over the world.

Anyway, those who are GREAT will always be GREAT, even if they are not in the focus and remember, if we are talking about the leaders in the field of seduction, we have to broach in the name of Ross Jeffries.

Carlos Xuma Review - "Alpha Male...Are You?"

Carlos Xuma Alpha Time...All this time we talked on how to approach women, how to act alpha, how to pick up women, how to seduce women - almost on every dating-women issue. But did we ever consider what women want? I’m not going to go into this controversial topic here, but it has widely acknowledged that women want QUALITY MEN and women love ALPHA MALES. I never even knew the meaning of Alpha male till the Carlos Xuma notes fell into my hand, I was completely overwhelmed by his way of approach to this women and dating thing.

Carlos Xuma mainly focuses on 'How to become an Alpha Male' (though Carlos Xuma's Dating Black Book, Approach Woman Versions and certain other specializations are popular as well).

He says, “Women are attracted to the Alpha males”…Character, Integrity, Courage and so – I mean, what makes up an Alpha man then? Carlos says, Power makes you become an Alpha Male. You become an Alpha Male by dint of your inner game.

Strengths

Man, is he different. He takes a different approach to the whole women and dating thing, often simplifying the harder concepts into smaller easily comprehensible and edible bits. You cannot actually say that he is up for the indirect game or the direct game. But he's a big proponent of the concept of Inner Game and how that shapes you as a Man. Yes, that's what he's focused on. This guy is an ORIGINAL among the many fake ones in the scene, and his way is to improve oneself over the time and thus, his dating programs turn you into a NATURALLY ATTRACTIVE MAN women love. Of course, he will also give you some practical innovative dating tips/advices to play it hard but ultimately, you end up becoming that person who doesn't have to play to attract and seduce women. It's never manipulation. Remember, you are the Attraction and Seduction itself.

Weaknesses

Actually Carlos is one of those dating experts online that cooks up all the right elements and gives you a tasty dish (his online dating guide materials). He goes deep into it and heaves out the rich diamond from inside. I really don’t have any bad review about it (You must be thinking I'm only marketing about his dating products, but to be very honest, in this field, you evolve your own style, once you get the hang of it, and to get to that level, you need to read each and every authentic worthwhile online dating guru out there...just my two cents). He has got some marvelous quality dating guide materials coming online... especially the special Carlos Xuma (Day Game | Approach women (newbie and advanced course), Carlos Xuma Alpha Men programs (alpha immersion, alpha lifestyle and many more), dating black book, etc, it’s something any person learning this stuff should check out.

And don't forget, Carlos Xuma's famous alpha quote though, “Everyone makes his own destiny but only the SUCCESSFUL admit it”... It can make a great PICK-UP LINE, don't you think?
