<br />
I didn't daygame from November through February. My rationalizations:<br />
<br />
1) I was getting into an LTR.<br />
2) It's cold and dark outside.<br />
3) Most girls are hibernating with their boyfriends.<br />
4) Most girls have exams, and/or go somewhere for the holidays.<br />
5) Guys should take breaks the Game.<br />
<br />
In retrospect, the above were just excuses. No, I'm still with the LTR, so that's not what's prompting that. But let's take apart the above:<br />
<br />
1) An LTR is no reason to stop approaching. That doesn't mean you have to cheat though, if you choose for yourself not to. Instead, you can do what Krauser describes as Long Game (<a href="http://krauserpua.com/2010/11/18/long-game/">http://krauserpua.com/2010/11/18/long-game/</a>), but with the twist of keeping the girls in orbit in case your LTR ceases, rather than the girls' LTRs. This strategy also ensures that you at least maintain your daygaming skills, while additionally helping you with your abundance mentality within your LTR.<br />
<br />
2) Cold and dark outside? Go to a grocery store. Preferably, that's one that girls go to, and one that is more isolating to conversation - large floor plan, tall aisles, and not too busy.<br />
<br />
I suggest you prefer these grocery stores to malls, since malls - especially high-end ones in the West, or regular ones outside the West - tend to attract girls that are older, and/or in a relationship.<br />
<br />
3) No denying that girls hibernate during the winter with their boyfriends. But, the flip side of that exists: the few girls who DO break up during winter may lower their standards, to get back into a cozy hibernation. On the whole, still worse than spring or fall, but not impossible.<br />
<br />
4) Same as 3, essentially. The few girls who aren't as busy with exams or holidays will be more lonely.<br />
<br />
5) Guys should take breaks from mindlessly pursuing the Game, but they should not let their skills completely wither away. The key is to find your own base level of approaching that maintains a comfortable skill set.<br />
<br />
So, get out there and keep daygaming. Winter is no excuse.262http://www.blogger.com/profile/10326845203689493894noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7680416988641614012.post-60407501254722504742016-02-14T17:00:00.000-08:002016-02-14T17:00:05.173-08:00The State of Valentine's Day in the US?<span style="background-color: whitesmoke; font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20.2222px;">A US organization I used to volunteer with just me an e-mail for Valentine's Day weekend, asking me to volunteer (including Sunday).

<br />
"<span style="background-color: #f3f4ee; color: grey; font-family: Palatino, Georgia, Baskerville, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18.2px;">Personally I think that in the old days a chick had a baby at an early enough age to fulfill her need for crazy emotional impact drama to keep her happy and not craving it, but these days since they don’t want kids till they’re 30+ they fill that voice with the cock carousel, cats, Eat Pray Love adventures, hundreds of hours of Netflix (shows/movies full of emotional ups and downs), fucking guys like me, etc.</span>"<br />

“Of the 5.3 million British infants delivered between 1939 and 1945, over a third were illegitimate – and this wartime phenomenon was not confined to any one section of society. The babies that were born out-of-wedlock belonged to every age group of mother, concluded one social researcher:</div>

Some were adolescent girls who had drifted away from homes which offered neither guidance nor warmth and security. Still others were women with husbands on war service, who had been unable to bear the loneliness of separation. There were decent and serious, superficial and flighty, irresponsible and incorrigible girls among them. There were some who had formed serious attachments and hoped to marry. There were others who had a single lapse, often under the influence of drink. There were, too, the ‘good-time girls’ who thrived on the presence of well-paid servicemen from overseas, and semi-prostitutes with little moral restraint. But for the war many of these girls, whatever their type, would never have had illegitimate children. (pp. 276-277)”</div>

Remember that Hypergamy is rooted in survival-level doubt. Women who chose to breed with, and form convenient emotional connections with, a conquering force were selected-for and lived to pass on their DNA.</div>

The trick of course is having the prescience to side (breed with) with the winning force, and that’s where Hypergamous doubt can be debilitating for women. <b>Hypergamy doesn’t care about nationalism, patriotism or even long term fidelity to the men who might fail in defending a woman from that invading force. (Emphasis mine)</b></div>

How much free time do you have?<br />
<br />
Probably not enough.<br />
<br />
And definitely not enough to stop and consider what you really want out of life.<br />
<br />
That's a revelation I had when I had to answer the same question anyone who retires early gets - "what are you doing with all that free time?"<br />
<br />
Solidifying what I want out of life.<br />
<br />
Now I know what you're thinking. "But you can do that while you're working too. It doesn't take that much time."<br />
<br />
Except I've been there. I've worked a full-time job, ran Game like a part-time job, lifted, ran my errands, and hung out with my friends, leading quite the busy life. There just isn't enough downtime in that to force you to question your existence.<br />
<br />
So, don't worry if you don't know what you'll do when you retire. You'll have plenty of time to think about it.262http://www.blogger.com/profile/10326845203689493894noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7680416988641614012.post-45401272411263056922015-12-06T17:00:00.000-08:002015-12-06T17:00:02.613-08:00Friendly Reminder: Poosy Hibernates As Temps DropOf course, I don't mean girls literally hibernate like bears.<br />
<br />
What I mean is what I found out running Game in Atlanta.<br />
<br />
Folks couple up. More girls give you legitimate boyfriend excuses. More guys you know, and guys on Game forums, talk about LTRs.<br />
<br />
College girls also gear up for exams, papers, projects, etc.<br />
<br />
Older girls - and college girls with daddy's money - think about a winter vacation. Preferably, to a warmer place with desperate guys, such as Spain, Italy, or Turkey (all known for being sex tourists). And especially if the girls are not lucky or hard-working enough to have locked down a boyfriend.<br />
<br />
Note that this also aligns with Game gurus such as Krauser posting when they too go into winter hibernation.<br />
<br />
Of course, you can still get some girls during winter. Shoot, I almost SDL'd a Warsaw girl in Sopot near the end of November. (But let's face it, she was there alone with nothing to do - a lucky break for me.)<br />
<br />
But, if you're planning a trip, or simply taking breaks from the Game, as Roosh advocates, and Krauser implies, then winter is a good time to stay out of the Game.<br />
<br />
Research does indicate that breakups happen before Christmas and Valentine's Day. However, my guess is that these girls just sulk, eat chocolate or ice cream, and get fat until spring rolls around, when they can no longer hide their newly-gained rolls with winter clothing.262http://www.blogger.com/profile/10326845203689493894noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7680416988641614012.post-56024677002887261962015-11-29T17:00:00.000-08:002015-11-29T17:00:01.059-08:00How Running Game in America Helped Me Move AbroadI know what you're thinking.<br />
<br />
Of course running Game in America helped you move abroad! You learned that American women aren't worth it!<br />
<br />
While that's true, that's actually not the biggest way that Game helped me move abroad.<br />
<br />
When I decided to quit my job and leave the West in July of 2014, a year before I actually did it, I'd been attempting to date in Atlanta for four years.<br />
<br />
Despite having met a previous girlfriend through an indirect day approach (before I learned any Game), I started off with online dating. Technology reduced my work in many areas of my life, so why not dating?<br />
<br />
As you probably know, that did not pan out anywhere near where I thought it would. As I worked harder at it by improving my profile, using more sites, and sending more messages, I did get a few dates, and even fewer lays, but I was definitely putting more work into it than it was worth.<br />
<br />
After two years of that, I stumbled upon "the manosphere" while looking for online dating hacks. One was to use a browser script to automatically "like" every girl in OkCupid's Tinder-like game, thereby uncovering all the girls who "liked" you. It was a small risk (at least in my mind) to try this and the other hacks, since they could get me kicked off. But at that point, I figured I had nothing to lose. So try I did, and they yielded a correspondingly small improvement in my work rate.<br />
<br />
However, the results still weren't up to snuff. Thanks to "the manosphere" though, I decided in mid-2013 to give Roosh's "Day Bang" a try (as well as start lifting and eating seriously). At the time, the idea of even indirectly approaching girls serially, to ask them out on a date, was foreign to me. It seemed risky. But again, I figured I had nothing to lose.<br />
<br />
The results were definitely better - no more fatties for me - but still not good enough. After a few months, I felt I was wasting tons of time with this indirect approach, so I looked for something else. And that's when I found "Daygame Blueprint" by Daygame.com.<br />
<br />
Now here was something even more risky. Instead of hiding my dick for what seemed like an eternity, only to likely be shot down at the end, here we were going to what seemed like a more direct approach. Again, I figured I had nothing to lose.<br />
<br />
The results were better still - less time wasted on "no date" girls, so more time to find the "maybe date" and the few "yes date" girls. In the meantime, thanks to Roosh and the guys on his forum, I'd heard that foreign girls in certain parts of the world were better than those in America. I did a few scout trips, and saw the tip of the iceberg of what they were talking about.<br />
<br />
After many more months of Gaming as a part-time job, I was fed up with American girls. Move abroad? Now there's a risk. But again, I figured I had nothing to lose.<br />
<br />
Here's the key: thanks to "the manosphere," I'd already and inadvertently been progressively taking bigger and bigger risks, through Game. I went from hiding behind a computer screen to meet girls, to jogging after them to "tell them they look nice." So when I made my decision in July of 2014, I was ready to take such a big risk.262http://www.blogger.com/profile/10326845203689493894noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7680416988641614012.post-19428877710318539202015-11-22T17:00:00.000-08:002015-11-22T17:00:01.298-08:00Is Pursuing Happiness Like Pursuing a Cat?Anyone who's been around cats knows how to pursue them. What you don't do is directly pursue them, since more often than not, they simply run away.<br />
<br />
Instead, what you do is you simply "set a trap" for the cat, such that it comes to you. You still have to take action - in this case, "setting the trap" - but you <a href="http://journeyof262.blogspot.com/2015/09/it-should-go-without-saying-avoid.html" target="_blank">don't go to the extreme</a> of directly chasing the cat.<br />
<br />
Coincidentally, one observation I've made about some of the star PUAs in the manosphere is that they don't seem as happy as their star notch counts would suggest. Like directly chasing the cat, it seems directly chasing happiness doesn't work.<br />
<br />
Of course, not taking any action to pursue the cat or happiness is less likely to yield results than some pursuit.<br />
<br />
I guess in the end, it's all about balance. <a href="http://journeyof262.blogspot.com/2015/09/applying-middle-path-to-choosing.html" target="_blank">The Middle Path</a> appears again!262http://www.blogger.com/profile/10326845203689493894noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7680416988641614012.post-10568787845363331422015-11-15T17:00:00.000-08:002015-11-15T17:00:00.499-08:00A Way to Quickly Determine if a Location is Good for Marriage?A rough idea, but here are some questions you can ask:<br />
<br />
1) How many young girls are pushing strollers versus going to school or work?<br />
<br />
2) What seems to be the average SMV (sexual market value) of the girls pushing strollers (how hot are they)? What about the girls going to school or work?<br />
<br />
3) How many children are young girls walking around with?262http://www.blogger.com/profile/10326845203689493894noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7680416988641614012.post-57080472294049033982015-11-06T08:22:00.000-08:002015-11-06T08:22:28.175-08:00Lviv, Ukraine: First ImpressionsCame here for a few days for several reasons:<br />
<br />
1) I needed to do a Polish border run to reset my visa.<br />
2) Because of #1, I figured I might as well scout a new location.<br />
3) It's cheap to get to from Poland.<br />
4) It's close to Poland.<br />
4) It's cheap to stay in.<br />
5) Thanks to the Roosh V Forum, I heard the women were worth it.<br />
<br />
Here's what I observed:<br />
<br />
1) I get more stares here than in Kiev, but less than in 2nd-tier Poland. About the same as Warsaw.<br />
<br />
2) The women are definitely Ukrainian. More heels, legs, and makeup than their Polish counterparts, but less curves. Definitely more brunettes than blondes. Not as many Mediterranean-looking girls as Kiev though.<br />
<br />
3) Lots of students relative to the general population. This seems to be the youngest city I've been to.<br />
<br />
4) The city seems more conducive to street day game than Kiev is. While most people in Kiev get around using public transit, in Lviv, the city seems small enough - or the public transit is limited enough - that most people walk.<br />
<br />
5) The only minorities I saw in any significant numbers were African students. They usually travel in groups.<br />
<br />
Overall, the city definitely seems worth spending a month in to figure out.262http://www.blogger.com/profile/10326845203689493894noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7680416988641614012.post-13967629452001510852015-11-01T17:00:00.000-08:002015-11-01T17:00:01.255-08:00Should You Move Your Daygame From K-Selected to r-Selected?With more daygame experience under my belt, I now think I understand more why the London daygame guys - especially Krauser - advocate r-selected daygame, especially if you want to bang the hottest girls.<br />
<br />
The thing with most attractive girls - and especially the hottest girls - is that there's rarely even a moment when her boyfriend slot isn't filled. And let's not forget her backlog of potential replacements, usually well-vetted through her social circle.<br />
<br />
The reason for that is that most guys lean towards being beta, or K-selected. This serves them well as contributing members of society, helping them navigate professional circles, as well as social ones. It's usually only when they stumble upon being a little more alpha, or r-selected, that they fall into the boyfriend slot, usually through their social circle.<br />
<br />
But as most Game guys have found, there's another slot to be had: the lover.<br />
<br />
This slot usually isn't filled with a candidate with the duration of a boyfriend, since most guys aren't alpha or r-selected enough to fill it. Most guys are normal. For more traditional girls, the lover slot may exist only fleetingly - if at all. But, as we all know, feminism is making short work of these traditional girls.<br />
<br />
Krauser has some nice detail about the pros and cons of r-selected daygame versus K-selected daygame in Daygame Mastery and his other resources. As I understand it, one is not necessarily easier than the other. With r-selected daygame - sexualized eye contact, body language, voice tonality, etc - you get more blowouts, so you get fewer leads (though the leads are "sexier"). In contrast, with K-selected daygame, you get more numbers, but then you have to stack up against her list of boyfriend requirements, which are always longer than her list of lover requirements.<br />
<br />
With r-selected daygame, and especially with the hottest girls, it therefore also stands to reason that if you do bang her, she will have cheated on her boyfriend. I suppose that is the moral price to pay if you want to bang the hottest girls. And if you're a "enjoy the decline" manosphere guy - H/T to Aaron Clarey for writing said entitled book - then my guess is why bother with morals if you're "enjoying the decline" by banging the hottest girls?262http://www.blogger.com/profile/10326845203689493894noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7680416988641614012.post-81294909711998333912015-10-25T17:00:00.000-07:002015-10-25T17:00:05.142-07:00Game Location Tip: It's About Volume of Young Available Girls, Not Just Volume of PeopleQuick - if you had to decide to daygame at a busy mall or a sparse but large university, which would you pick?<br />
<br />
Most guys I know seem to choose the busy mall over the sparse but large university. In fact, that was me - until today.<br />
<br />
What was different about today was that I decided to try my luck and do some daygame at the sparse but large university instead of the busy mall. This was based on the fact that most of my leads are college students, even though most of my approaches - at the busy mall - are not.<br />
<br />
What I found at the busy mall was what most of the daygame guys find: malls tend to attract taken girls, and/or older women. In the West, this tends to apply more to high-end malls, but here in Eastern Europe, it seems to apply to malls in general, and not just high-end ones. It may be that outside the West, any mall is high-end.<br />
<br />
Distilling that lesson even more, the point is that when choosing a location to Game, it's about the volume of young available girls (preferably walking alone), not just the volume of people.<br />
<br />
So don't be fooled when you see a busy mall or street into thinking, "This must be a good place to daygame." Look at the volume of young girls walking alone.262http://www.blogger.com/profile/10326845203689493894noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7680416988641614012.post-76951611816282957832015-10-18T17:00:00.000-07:002015-10-18T17:00:11.838-07:00Another Reason Why Men Should Go Where They Don't Look Like a LocalMuch is made in the manosphere of paternity fraud, where a wife knowingly cheats on her husband, and presents the offspring of this cheating to her husband as his own genetic heritage.<br />
<br />
I don't know about you, but I'm not interested in raising any more kids that aren't my own. I already do this through the American tax system anyway, in the form of welfare handouts.<br />
<br />
So what's a man to do to stop paternity fraud? Paternity testing kits are one option, but as feminism continues to make inroads, one should expect more countries to follow in France's footsteps, where paternity testing is practically banned.<br />
<br />
Here's another solution for men:<br />
1) Go to a country where you don't look like a local.<br />
2) Father children with a local woman.<br />
3) If the children don't have any of your non-local features, you know the children aren't yours.<br />
<br />
Obviously, this solution works best if you're practically the only non-local that the local woman has access to.<br />
<br />
If the above was too cerebral for you, here's a reverse application of the above, in a trashy talk show. (TL;DV - fat white woman claims fat white man is the father of her half-black kids; DNA test proves the obvious, that she's wrong)<br />

Suppose the natives there were replaced due to a variety of factors, such as disease, or a culture that did not promote productivity as well as that of the replacing peoples. Is this fair? Or is this simply right by might, and possibly evolution?<br />
<br />
In case you think I'm talking about the migrant crisis in Europe, I'm not. I'm actually thinking of the non-native settlement of the Americas and Australia.<br />
<br />
Think about it: did the Native Americans and Australians deserve to be replaced? If not, should the Americas and Australia be given back to them, and the non-native descendants sent back to Europe, Africa, Asia, etc? Or was the replacement of the Native Americans and Australians simply part of the evolutionary process?<br />
<br />
Could it then be said that legal and illegal migration into the US of Latinos, who as a group are genetically closer to the Native Americans than any other group, is justified by fairness, or right by might?<br />
<br />
Does morality matter in any of these scenarios, or is it all just right by might?<br />
<br />
<b>In either case, consistency matters. Morality can't matter in select cases, only to be thrown out the window in other cases.</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
Thus, I fail to see how one can justify the replacement of Native Americans and Australians by non-natives, while disagreeing with the replacement of Europeans by non-natives, both in Europe and the US (where they aren't even native anyway). Either both scenarios are unfair, or both are justified by might making right (evolution).<br />
<br />
And don't tell me one group is simply more deserving than another due to their past contributions or charity. <a href="http://journeyof262.blogspot.com/2015/08/dont-harp-on-about-glorious-past.html" target="_blank">There is no point in harping on about a glorious past.</a> Only the present and the future matter.262http://www.blogger.com/profile/10326845203689493894noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7680416988641614012.post-16809176920497865242015-10-04T17:00:00.000-07:002015-10-04T17:00:02.045-07:00What If Governments Behaved Like Sports Teams?It would be interesting if governments behaved more like sports teams, recruiting players they think would contribute, and letting go of players that aren't panning out. Imagine:<br />
<br />
1) A citizen of a country commits a heinous crime. Instead of sending the criminal to jail to be supported or even executed on the taxpayer dime, the country simply strips the criminal of citizenship, and deports them at the nearest border.<br />
<br />
2) A citizen of another country has a track record of exceptional and quantifiable contributions. The "sports team" country decides to "recruit" this person and people like this person, offering them generous citizenship packages, in exchange for ensuring future contributions are made to the "sports team" country.<br />
<br />
One catch I can see is that "sports team" country has to have the right metrics to determine who gets recruited and who gets booted. It would have to be some sort of quantifiable metric that shows how "profitable" each citizen is to the country, like:<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>Tax Income Received - Cost of Government Services Used</i></div>
<br />
Without quantifiable metrics, the "sports team" country at best would be hiring and firing on anecdotes, and at worst, would be hiring and firing for silly political or bureaucratic reasons.<br />
<br />
At the end of the day, I think it'd take trial and error to get all the details of a "sports team" country right. But this mentality seems better than stocking your bench with an at-best unproven line-up, all in the name of sympathy.262http://www.blogger.com/profile/10326845203689493894noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7680416988641614012.post-6222636032034596282015-09-30T17:00:00.000-07:002015-09-30T17:00:15.401-07:00Why I Won't Reveal My NameHat tip to Rollo Tomassi at The Rational Male ( <a href="http://therationalmale.com/">http://therationalmale.com/</a> ):<br />
<br />
"A heckler once interrupted Nikita Khrushchev [the then-dictator of the Soviet Union] in the middle of a speech in which he was denouncing the crimes of Stalin [the brutal previous dictator]. 'You were a colleague of Stalin's,' the heckler yelled, 'why didn't you stop him then?' Khrushchev apparently could not see the heckler and barked out, 'Who said that?' No hand went up. No one moved a muscle. After a few seconds of tense silence, Khrushchev finally said in a quiet voice, 'Now you know why I didn't stop him.'"262http://www.blogger.com/profile/10326845203689493894noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7680416988641614012.post-1603603666336825262015-09-30T05:31:00.001-07:002015-09-30T05:31:42.679-07:00Why I Stopped Getting Involved in Useless Forum ThreadsIt's pretty simple.<br />
<br />
As the name suggests, they're a waste of time.<br />
<br />
Sure, some of them are emotionally provoking, especially the race threads, but at the end of the day, it's just a bunch of (mostly anonymous) nobodies on a non-mainstream Internet forum.<br />
<br />
What's the point of attempting to convince them anyways? The mainstream is not moving in their direction any time soon, and these guys would rather complain about reality than even discuss how to deal with it (never mind actually doing so).<br />
<br />
And who wants to associate with people who'd rather complain than take action anyway? They'll just drag you down into pointless conversation, and prevent you from taking action.<br />
<br />
So it really is as Tom Torero says. "Less talk, more action!"262http://www.blogger.com/profile/10326845203689493894noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7680416988641614012.post-62633113043126380672015-09-27T17:00:00.000-07:002015-09-27T17:00:11.246-07:00The Elites Are Not Evil, They're Just Acting in Self-InterestMost folks are familiar with the five stages of grief:<br />
<br />
1) Denial<br />
2) Anger<br />
3) Bargaining<br />
4) Depression<br />
5) Acceptance<br />
<br />
Sometimes people make it through all five stages - which is good - and sometimes they don't - which is bad. In the "manosphere," this idea is usually applied to discovering the truth about women:<br />
<br />
1) Denial - "Women are not like this at all!" - Still a Disney-believing "blue-pill" guy<br />
2) Anger - "How can women be this bad?!" - Generally rants a lot on forums<br />
3) Bargaining - "But not all women are like that!" - Generally posts less frequently on forums<br />
4) Depression - "I give up on women." - actual MGTOWs (Men Going Their Own Way). Doesn't post at all<br />
5) Acceptance - "All women generally follow this model. Now that I know their playbook, I can rewrite mine." - Generally posts infrequently but constructively<br />
<br />
What doesn't seem to be happening in the "manosphere" quite yet is folks going through all five stages when discovering the truth about <b>the elites </b>(not a conspiracy theory, just think Game of Thrones, which is basically a show about the ups and downs of being an elite):<br />
<br />
1) Denial - "These are just silly conspiracy theories."<br />
2) Anger - "How can the elites be so bad?!"<br />
3) Bargaining - "Surely some elites must feel for their fellow man! Help us!"<br />
4) Depression - "The elites control everything and are evil. I give up."<br />
5) Acceptance - "The elites are just acting in their own perceived self-interest, as they always have been, and always will be. They compete with each other too, with some attaining elite status, some maintaining elite status, and some losing elite status. In any case, now knowing that the elites are merely acting in perceived self-interest, I can now better act in my own self-interest."<br />
<br />
As is the case with the subject of women, the most frequent posters on the subject of elites are those in the anger stage. And just as staying in that stage with regards to women is ultimately unproductive, so too is it with regards to the elites.262http://www.blogger.com/profile/10326845203689493894noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7680416988641614012.post-35479061822265310782015-09-24T13:46:00.000-07:002015-09-24T13:47:58.871-07:00Bialystok, Poland: First ImpressionsI was going to post this on the Roosh forum, but then I decided to save it as a special treat for my readers. Not going to lie, also didn't want to share it as widely as the Roosh forum enables.<br />
<br />
Went to Bialystok for a day. Why?<br />
<br />
1) Almost no Game data about it.<br />
2) It only cost me ~$100 and two days.<br />
3) It's in Eastern Poland, which is generally poorer, and thus, cheaper.<br />
4) The proximity to the FSU may mean more FSU influence on the women.<br />
5) Official population is around 300k, so enough to be a 2nd-tier city. <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bia%C5%82ystok" target="_blank">Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bia%C5%82ystok</a><br />
6) This wikitravel quote peaked my daygame interest:<br />
<br />
<i>Bialystok is a rather small city in terms of size, considering its big population - it is the second most densely populated city in Poland after Łódź.</i><br />
<br />
Source: <a href="http://wikitravel.org/en/Bia%C5%82ystok">http://wikitravel.org/en/Bia%C5%82ystok</a><br />
<br />
Results:<br />
While a day is only enough to be a post (not even a mini data sheet), here are my thoughts, in no particular order:<br />
1) There may be a slight FSU influence - maybe a few more heels and skirts than in Gdansk/Sopot - but this is definitely still Poland, and not the FSU.<br />
2) Reactions were a bit more green or red light, rather than yellow light, compared to Gdansk/Sopot. Not as much as in Kiev though, where it's night and day.<br />
3) My foreigner value as an Asian-American brown guy seems higher here than in Gdansk/Sopot. No overt racism here either during the day. Can't speak for the night since I'm not a night gamer, but packs of drunk guys not getting laid are generally the same everywhere.<br />
4) English levels seem on par with Gdansk/Sopot.<br />
5) The girls' bodies are definitely still Polish. I didn't observe a noticeable shift to the FSU "white Asian girl" body type.<br />
6) The city is noticeably more compact than Gdansk/Sopot. This means more girls walking and thus more day game opportunities. Lipowa Street is where the action seems to be. There's also a large park and two malls within a twenty minute walk.<br />
7) The city itself - at least around Lipowa Street - is quite nice, and quite new. The residents don't seem poor, though the Alfa mall had a bit less traffic for a weekday night than Galeria Baltycka in Gdansk does.<br />
8) Local guys seem to be dating on par with Gdansk/Sopot.<br />
9) My guess is there are less PUAs here, Polish or foreign, since there is no local airport for their thirsty asses to fly into. In contrast, Gdansk/Sopot has plenty of low-cost carrier airline service from all over Europe. This probably also drives the Gdansk/Sopot guys into the hands of RSD, which seems popular among them. Not saying Gdansk/Sopot is sarged out, but once in a while, you will get the eye-roll reaction - because your approach should be as unique as the girl is a special snowflake, after all :p<br />
10) Despite the compactness of the city, the population seems large enough that I didn't run into the same faces on Lipowa Street.<br />
<br />
Verdict: More research needed, especially when college starts in October, but the place seems to have unusual day game potential.262http://www.blogger.com/profile/10326845203689493894noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7680416988641614012.post-7412651305826958422015-09-20T17:00:00.000-07:002015-09-20T17:00:00.959-07:00It Should Go Without Saying: Avoid AddictionSome guys say you should embrace hedonism when it comes to women, since you can't have enough sex. Let's think of a parallel to test that.<br />
<br />
Let's suppose you embrace hedonism when it comes to food. You eat as much tasty food as you can. As a result, your health slips. Okay, so you've experienced the extreme, and now you know you need to get back to a balanced diet. The problem is, your body and mind are used to your extreme habits. As anyone who's seen the many ads promoting weight-loss products knows, changing these extreme habits is much harder than having balanced habits in the first place. I'm not saying you can't get back to habits that are balanced - I'm just saying it's harder.<br />
<br />
Of course, some guys will say that avoiding hedonism when it comes to women is an avoidance weasel. I'd argue that's only true if you avoid women completely. Getting back to the food analogy, you don't go from eating an extremely bad diet to eating nothing; you eat a balanced diet.<br />
<br />
And just as a balanced diet contains wholesome foods, a balanced approach to women contains wholesome women. In both cases, you screen out the things that are tasty but ultimately harmful.262http://www.blogger.com/profile/10326845203689493894noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7680416988641614012.post-84372162381395884292015-09-13T11:32:00.000-07:002015-09-13T11:32:00.062-07:00Applying "The Middle Path" to Choosing a Country for Love TourismUnless you're Buddhist, you're probably not familiar with the Buddhist concept of "The Middle Path." In short, before attaining enlightenment, the Buddha experienced two extremes: one as a prince, whose every desire was fulfilled, and another as a monk, who starved himself so much that he was on the path to death. Realizing that neither extreme would get him closer to enlightenment (hard to do that while near-dead, or while permanently preoccupied with hedonism), he decided to take "The Middle Path," carefully striking the necessary balance between the two extremes. Through this, he attained enlightenment.<br />
<br />
We can also apply this concept of "The Middle Path" to choosing a country for love tourism. On one hand, we have wealthy countries that enable women's hedonistic tendencies, such as the US and Australia, resulting in said women generally being slutty, fat, and entitled. However, on the other hand, we also have dirt-poor countries that tip women to desperation, such as Ukraine and the Phils, resulting in some of these women becoming pros or semi-pros. Neither of these states is desired. (Obviously NAWALT applies, but averages are more important than outliers.)<br />
<br />
Applying the concept of "The Middle Path," we can see that we want countries where the women are not so wealthy as to be predominantly occupied with hedonism, but we also want countries where the women are not so dirt-poor as to be predominantly occupied with materialism. So instead of the US, Australia, Ukraine, or the Phils, we have countries like Poland and Thailand.<br />
<br />
Of course, as events unfold, the balance point can change. It can even change within countries, such as Warsaw or Bangkok versus Poznan or Chang Mai. But hopefully this post will save you some time from exploring obvious extremes.<br />
<br />
Edit: One other point is that dirt-poor countries also tend to attract weirder expats. These include sex tourists and older and less socially-calibrated guys, none of whom you likely want to hang out with. As the name implies, "Middle Path" countries tend to attract more balanced guys.262http://www.blogger.com/profile/10326845203689493894noreply@blogger.com0
