I can't tell you  many friends I have who were fooled and trapped, reduced  being a walking ATM machine in a suffocating relationship. This  book helps you avoid the nonsense with ease.
You could read this purely for entertainment and great writing, but there really is a slew of great dating and financial advice that every man can benefit from. A fun and easy read that had me cracking  from page one.
Ever sit next  the wise old hilarious sage holding court in an local pub? This book gives timeless wisdom and wit in volumes, in a contagious writing style. Who better  discuss   navigate all the bizarre dating situations and whacked out bipolar  we all encounter than a sarcastic, occasionally brilliant, half liquored  ?  psychologist.

These are his tales and lessons he learned while perfecting the chase. He speaks the truth, the truth so carefully hidden by political correctness. The book is filled with tips and tricks  stay one step ahead of manipulative  and avoid the inevitable life sucking relationships we all wish  avoid, while seeking out and dating the hot intelligent rational .

The real problem today is that most men are suffering unknowingly from LOW TESTOSTERONE. Normal levels are in the 700 range while most men in the West show levels below 300. It is critical  realize that  are tuned  pickup on the MICRO BEHAVIORS of men that have normal  high testosterone levels; behaviors such as , aggressive driving, cocky behavior, loud speech, open standing and sitting positions, using loud mufflers on motorcycles or cars. In short, anything that screams " I Am Here, are there any other males around that will challenge me ?" If  seem  view you in terms of a friend rather than a sex partner, it is well advised  start with a check of your testosterone level and fix it before you think the problem is all behavioral.

Since testosterone is made from cholesterol, adhearance  low fat diets could be a culprit in the West.
IF YOU HAVE LOW TESTOSTERONE, NONE OF THE ADVICE IN THE DATING BOOKS WILL HELP YOU UNTIL YOU FIX THE TESTOSTERONE.  WILL KNOW THAT YOU ARE FAKING BEHAVIOR BECAUSE YOUR TOTAL IMPRESSION WILL REVEAL CONTRADICTIONS.
 
The reason I bought this book was for the second half of the title "  Exploit Her Inner Psycho". When I bought it I thougt the book would be more entertainment factor than actual useful data. I was half right.
I got through the first couple chapters of the book and laughed myself silly and thought the following.

1  Man this guy really has alot of gender rants against the fairer gender.
2  And I cant seem  disagree with him on any front.
That is truly the scary part. Based on the fact that the whole point is  try  figure out   go out and find what you want, obtain what you want, and protect your own psyche and resources while doing it. It seems that the book makes the case that its a losing cause.
There is one chapter where in order  recharge your psyche you actually have  get outside of the country  find  who provide a more positive experience. That is a really depressing conclusion  have  come . Cant argue with it which is even more depressing.
The section on classifying  I found a must have. I had my own mental check list, which after reading the one in this book I found mine totally inadequate. This one definitely helps you  assess, and guage whether the target is even worth the effort, and end result.  I can definitely say that from what I have seen, many of the classifications are dead on
Protecting your assets is the first time I have ever heard of this topic. Also worth the cost of the book.

So I would say that if you approach this book as an entertaining read  get by the depressing elements of what he communicates. You stand a better chance of gleaning what the deeper down value of this book actually is.
This book captures the essence of the masculine mindset that creates the winner lifestyle with . It shows you   get what you want, but may lack the balls  go for. I've been waiting for someone  write a book like this for a while. This book tells it like it is, it highlights the ridiculous PC feminized culture we live in and educates men on   ignore the propaganda and get what you want in life, be it business success, a wife, or a revolving door of girlfriends. It breaks dating down   pure psychology, shows you   read  in minutes, and then plan your flirting and interaction.

Really fun  read, written in sort of a British witty style, alternating between bar room talk  psych doc office lingo, and as you read it so many things will turn a light bulb on. Whether you're a lady killer, or continually being played by , this book should have a real positive impact for years  come.
This 30 day course teaches you the easiest ways  meet ANY girl, ANYWHERE, ANY TIME. Includes diagrams, flash cards, and self tests.   The biggest problem most men have in getting dates is knowing   approach attractive girls they see every day of the week  at the office, gas station, standing in line anywhere . Too many men rely on nightclubs, bars, and personal ads  get dates, ignoring the  they see e v e r y d a y.  This book takes all of the guesswork out of meeting , no matter where they are. From the moment you see her and the first few words you say  get her attention through getting her phone number  and actually looking forward  having you call her , this book teaches you   do it in an easy  follow, step by step fashion. Read this book and change your life. Then read it again until you master every technique in this book. You will find yourself surrounded by beautiful girls all the time.

Okay, so I liked the book   but if it were about 50 pages shorter I might have liked it a lot better. This guy starts off with     chicks wherever you see them every day, and he goes too much into why this approach works, and  this other approach is weak or strong  he sounds like my old professors , and then he has this cool section on   read their palms  I have seen guys do this stuff   that and that trick where they tell your future by your handwriting . Anyway, that was all okay, and of course he has  spend a hundred pages telling you   put all of this together; what  do if she says this, what  do if her boyfriend shows ,   get out of a conversation with a psycho chick  I say just leave   don't even say goodbye , and then he has some tests, and experiences from people I really don't care about. No offense but I just ant  know  I can get laid, you know?

This book has a TON of information but I felt like I was back in school. I did try what he said over the past week and a half and it seems  be working, I got a few chick's phone numbers, but I think he could have saved me a lot of time reading by just telling me straight out   approach hotties at the store, gas station  and so on , get the number and leave it at that. Once I have a girl's number in my pocket I think I know what  do. I don't know. Does it work? Sure. And it is funny at times. But it is pretty heavy stuff. look, if you are looking for something really quick, check out Seduce Me. The Mystery Method is also killer, but it takes a while  build  your game using his techniques. Mystery is out  turn guys into PUAs. A book like this or Seduce me is just about having some fun meeting hicks and getting dates when you want one.

My son plopped down this book in front of me and said "Does this stuff really work?" This is not the type of book I would normally curl  with on a Sunday evening after stoking the fire in the hearth  a comfortable level. But as I do love my 20 year old son  almost as much as I love  read , I figured that it was worth investigating.

The text is set in a conversational tone that is almost chummy at times. The author it seems seeks  teach without the pretense of authority and command. It is a fun read, and it is indeed instructional, but I came away with a feeling of "advice from a friend." Please keep in mind that I am a happily married man of 24 years, and I have no intention of "scamming on hotties" but I suppose that if I was twentysomething and raging with hormones I would seek anything that would help me gain release   get a lot of dates. All in all I found this a fun little book with plenty of instructions and illustrations. There were even a few quizzes in the back, and a complete set of printable  you get  do that part  flashcards in the back of the book.

I suppose I could go on about the state of our society that we need instruction manuals on   speak  each other, but the bottom line is that yes, these techniques do work  I have used several of these   and many others not mentioned in this book   in the past . The premise of the book is pretty straightforward. Approach  casually and with confidence  the author covers   do this in sufficient detail, but you will have  obviously practice this on your own , and shows ways  get a girl interested in what YOU have  say.
Then he illustrates   read a girl's palm and get her fascinated with you. I liked that part. That was unique. It is a strange fact that  love mysticism  palm reading, astrology, esp  far more than men ever will. I can see this working as even my wife goes  get her palm read once every few months. I told her once I could save her  me really  the fifty bucks and do it myself. That didn't work so well. She didn't talk  me for a week.

Look, I have seen over the years books that show you   get dates with  using handwriting analysis, hypnosis, "being a jerk"  love caveman style   when will men ever learn? , insulting , astrology, card magic, pretending that you are a psychic, something called neurolinguistic brainwashing or something like that, and numerous other tricks and gadgets. Who knows what works? You walk  and say hello. Say something interesting. I think that is what I liked best about this book. It gives you a solid starting point, and makes you laugh along the way. The author structured the whole thing in a 30 day course format. Personally I read the book and enjoyed it   for what it was   and didn't bother practicing what I learned the first time reading through  my wife would kill me!

So is it worth the twenty bucks? Well, I guess if you are young and single, and want a date  or "a lot of dates" as the author promises , then yes, but my advice is read this, and read everything you can. Try out all kinds of different techniques on different . After all, if you want "a lot of dates," then you should keep practicing your skills. As for me I had fun, told my son  follow the instructions and report back  me  well they worked  not too much detail please , and I am going  read the latest Stephen King novel.
This book is hilarious   and it works. It is a step by step guide  meeting girls on the street  coffeehouses, laundromats, grocery stores, gas stations. you get the idea . We didn't really see much on funerals: the author did mention picking  girls at funerals, so we were hoping for a bit more detail on that. But what you will learn here is   approach ANY girl casually, no matter where you are, and with no stress on you: no matter " hot you think she is." Then you will learn   transition from "hello" into getting the girl interested enough in you  give you a few minutes of her time  work your magic, and then get her number. Not  worry, the author even has a few tricks  show you   do that as well. This book is a MUST HAVE, but it is far from the only book you should read.
 
This book will not make you a superstar PUA, but if you have any game at all, what you will learn here will definitely improve your performance just about anywhere. You will even learn     girls in front of your girlfriend, and     2 3 girls at once  in front of each other . We tried some of these techniques and they were as easy as the author claims. Of course we have had some practice over the years, but even so, this is stuff any guy can   and should   master.
 
The price was reasonable enough   about 1/2 the cost of a cheap first date, and the laughs were pretty good as well. If you do get a copy of this book, **be sure  read the entire thing**. It is a 30 day home study course on picking  girls you see everywhere, but it is also a course on becoming more popular in general. It won't teach you game, but it will teach you   use what you've got   even if you only have a little.
 
Good always wanted  learn about seduction and palmstry, something different most men are not think about learning this  seduct , they rather trick out the pocket lolllll I going  safe my money smile.
It's a good book! What I liked about it was that it took all of the guesswork out. This should be taught in school. It's really not that difficult when you think about it. I wish math were this easy. If you  ask me, try the book and if you don't like it send it back.
Yes, the author did his job by interviewing lots of , and 50 of them are presented in the book. From that alone you can learn some things, but be cautious, because the way he makes the questions is suggesting the answers he wants.

For example, instead of asking the  in the first question, " do you like  be approached?", he writes: "What can a man say  you  make you feel good?" Get it? When he asks he's already telling her "something  make you feel good", so of course the woman will reply something like "I want a compliment", "tell me I'm beautiful", etc.

Of course, I don't mean this is bad advice. As a matter of fact,   beat the fear of rejection and   read  bodylanguage sections are worth the price of the book alone. However, it lacks organization, and only helps with the "  approach" dynamic, not what  do next. Also, the author doesn't want you  express sexuality, and doesn't encourage you  look for  who want  get laid. He suggests that you find out about their ex boyfriends and mirror the qualities they had. I don't agree with this advice, although it can work.
As a conclusion, the book has good advice about encouraging guys  go out there and meet many ,  have no fear of approaching hot girls, and get into relationships with them, not sex. But misses the " " get physical aspect with them. If you want  learn about body language and   compliment effectively, then tis is a "ok" buy, nothing more.

If you are not looking for relationships, I suggest the book "The System:   Get Laid Today" by Roy Valentine, with a step by step procedure without page filler fluff, and "Undercover Sex Signals" by Leil Lowndes, a gem for understanding the dialect of body language. You can't miss with those.
. along with Partridge Family records, Farrah Fawcett posters and 8 track players   because that's  relevant this book is  today's   scene. reads as though it were written by a feather haired time traveller straight off the dream weaver train.

I like this book. It speaks in a common sense format. If your looking for a book on   understand  and approach them, this is the book.  I also recommend Men from Venus and Woman from Mars  understand .  I have  say for the amount of pages and information this book, it is a great deal.
This book is packed with information that none of the other books even touched on.  I'll try  give you a few examples of what I mean.  The book is over 260 pages and there are about 20 italicized pages that just cover university studies on dating.  The book covers every aspect from   approach a woman    look, act, and behave.  There are super techniques in the book that will get you a date every single time you use them.  I don't want  ruin it for the author but let me give you some idea of what's in the book.  He interviewed two thousand  and in the book are a number of the actual interviews.  One of the questions was "What is the best thing a man can say  you when he first approaches you that would make you feel good and want  respond  him?"  He gives you the top answer from the two thousand  he interviewed.  If you don't know what that answer is, you'd better buy the book.  Here's another example; the book covers   have a conversation with a woman.  The author shows you   establish connections and understand similarities. 

"There is more familiarity and more informal warmth during a conversation between men and ."  While you're having a conversation, it is important  have a sense of humor.  The author describes exactly what kind of humor  like.  The author also informs the reader that "while you are having a conversation with a woman you have  seed in certain "cues" under the radar that she is listening for.  The author states you have  convey that you are an individual who is        ,        , and        ."   If you don't know what these three important cues are, you'd better purchase the book. 
 There is a chapter in the book called "Questions and Answers."  It covers almost every question you ever had about getting a date with a woman.  One of the questions is " do you impress a woman on the first date?"  The answer involves what is called a two factor theory.   If you use this theory properly, she'll be so impressed on the first date, she won't stop thinking about you until you call her again.  I can't really explain what the two factor theory is here, but the book goes into it in detail very nicely.  The book also covers what the "bad boy appeal" is  , "body language," the art of persuasion, secrets of beautiful .I could go on and on.  It's cutting edge compared  anything else on the subject, and believe me, I've read them all.  If you're looking  improve yourself and be one  on the next guy, this is the book for you.

The topics of this book are very interesting. He describes in detail a step by step process for average, unsuccessful guys like myself  get dates with . If you apply his techniques correctly you can obtain dates with almost every woman you approach.
This is a must read book for every shy guy out there. The book is worth every penny of your money. I can't begin  describe in detail all the things I have learned from this book. Just take my word for it, it's like I said   worth every penny.

Oh well at least it got there on time.
This book is downright ridiculous. It is mainly the author's personal stories and has little if any realistic advice for dating or improving your skills. I wanted ideas, but instead got useless stories about  being a shoe salesman, or running into a girl from a religious organization led  the author getting a one night stand. Others are just plain bizarre  like     girls at an abortion clinic. I will concede that it does have a few good points  if you can get it without having  pay anything for it, I would also say go ahead.  But the author comes off as a bit egotistical, and as an uneducated guy trying  pull of a get rich quick scheme. The reviews of the book all use far better diction and style than this work. The wise man learns from the mistakes of others  don't waste your money like I did.

After I read this book I got the feeling that if this man had spent more time working on this book instead of trying     he could have written a much better book.  This book has a few good recommendation in it but not enough  justify the price.  There are much better books on the subject of meeting and dating .  "  succeed with " by Ron Louis and David Copeland is my recommendation.  It's cheaper and gives 100 times more practical advice.  If you find "Over 200 Proven Ways and Places    Girls " on sale for a $1 somewhere go ahead and buy it.  Otherwise don't waste your money.
You'd never know there were 100  interviewed or that they said anything at all  the author. 

I thought this book could give some insight  the female mindset, especially in situations where they're being approached, but alas, it's 200 high school cookie cutter tricks for approaching .
It's a funny book. Which is really the best you can hope for in this type of literature. If you are really hinging your hopes of scoring on a book   well just buck  and hire a pro. seriously. And toss that guilt out the window about it. This book ain't gonna change your life   but for what it is, it did make me chuckle now and again.

This brave, occasionally moving and often hilarious memoir traces Muggins's relationships with Japanese  over the course of two decades. Few books set in contemporary Asian societies have been as successful at pulling the reader into the cultural milieu and making the foreign familiar.   The author protests perhaps too strongly that     Japanese Chicks. should not be mistaken for a self help manual. In fact the smiles, the belly laughs, the wistful there but for the grace of God go I nodding that every page elicits testify that it is the best sort of therapy for anyone suffering from relationship fatigue anywhere, anytime.

After reading this book, that was pretty much the thought I was left with.
Very weird, loose, writing style, and a lot of content that made me feel like I was missing out on some sort of inside joke  despite being a foreigner who's lived in Japan .

I hate giving bad reviews, but I'm glad I bought this used for 300 yen, otherwise I would be annoyed  say the least.
Expecting a more humor oriented book, I picked this  for a friend of mine who has a Japanese girlfriend.  We shared a laugh at the title, but the next time we crossed paths, he told me that he simply could not finish reading.
I decided  complete the book myself, and much  my chagrin, I found that it was more about the average white "loser" foreigner who goes crazy in Japan playing off Japanese misconceptions of white men.  He then simulteously manages  shamefully depict the current status of Japanese culture and further objectify the Japanese people as static, monolithic entity, which I personally find offensive.  Furthermore, in his tiring, sarcastic style he tries at times  elicit sympathy from the reader, but fails utterly, drowned by his own exploded ego.

His exploits as an unqualified, cynical, semi pedophiliac English teacher will be sure  make any educated or well traveled reader livid.
  Edward Said's Orientalism or even Sheridan Prasso's The Asian Mystique  which is a little lighter  instead unless you, like the author, are also an uneducated, immature white male who has had little or no success with .
I highly recommend this book  anyone who has dated a Japanese woman because most likely you can relate  some part of this book.  I wasn't sure what  think about the book from the title.  I think the title is misleading because this is not a " " book.  I wasn't really interested in a " " book especially on "picking  chicks", but I thought I would give this book a try.  I am glad that I did.  The stories are amusing and Josh Muggins does a great job of telling of his ventures of being a foreigner living in Japan and his excursions with the opposite sex.

This self published memoir might be mildly entertaining for men who have lived or are living in Japan at the moment and have first hand experience of dalliances with Japanese  and know about the headaches that they can cause. For others it will be baffling. Most of the book details the authors attempts at getting laid until he finally has a 'breakdown' at the end.  though the reason for this breakdown are not readily apparent .

Unfortunately, the protagonist in the story is completely unsympathetic as he comes across as your typical, horny, gaijin guy desperate  get himself laid and who will do almost anything  achieve that aim.  In one scene he dives into a tent full of sleeping girls only  get thrown out. Well, what did he expect? A full scale orgy?

But the main problem with this book, and the reason I suspect that it is self published, is the writing style. It's written in an ironic, stylized, 'smart alecky' style which quickly becomes tiring  read. In the end, as the story falls apart, it starts  resemble a vehicle for the writers own expirements with prose.

I've lived in Japan for many years and really wanted  like this book. Unfortunately, I found it a complete waste of time.
Donald Richie once said of Japan that "Sex was the ultimate souvenir." There is a well known reason why many of the foreign English teachers make the long trip over the ocean, and it isn't for the green tea and onsens. I certainly remember the magical moment when a Japanese chick first took off her clothes for me. And the second time. And the third time. And.you get the picture. Well, needless  say Josh Muggins didn't come  Japan for the green tea and onsens either, and he is here  tell you his tale.

"    Japanese Chicks and Doom Your Immortal Soul" should not be confused by anyone as a dating guide. Muggins does include some basic and imminently useful tips, such as Lesson #1 "Get your sorry white a**  Japan" and Lesson #17 "Whenever a Japanese chick wants  go  your place, for god's sake let her," but these are just little tidbits  justify the title, and it is really a memoir of a guy who arrived in Japan in 1979  work at an International Friendship School, and figured Japan was a pretty good place  be. 23 years later, he found himself the head of the English department at a University, and still investigating the joys and agonies of the Japanese chick.
Josh Muggins is both brutally honest and wryly funny in his memoir, taking equal shots at his own ineptitude and the whole culture of English teacher/Japanese chick relations that is very much a part of the modern Japan. His partners in his journey, the lovely Motoko who just wanted a quick fling and  show off her gaijin boyfriend, the seemingly perfect Miss Hirano, the innocent tease Ayana, and the Princess Michiko, are all completely believable, and I found myself nodding along knowingly with each new girl.

The writing style is very loose and witty, aiming  keep the spirits  of the reader, even when detailing the sad time when Muggins spiraled into doom, becoming a pathetic Tanizaki character, the perverted old man obsessing over a blossoming Japanese chick more than half his age. That portion of the book is a cautionary tale  those of us in Japan right now, young and riding the wave. Be careful, he says. This could be you.

A definite must read for all of those single males who have held the esteemed title of English Teachers in Japan. Aside from just being a fun read, I guarantee you will find yourself nodding along knowingly, dipping back into your own memories of Japanese chicks, the givers of pain.and delight!

This book changed my life.  I have a lazy eye and have a skin condition that tends  flare  when I get nervous.  Eric's advice helped me  realize that nobody's perfect, except perhaps for some Hollywood stars, and that girls are dying for me   them .  I've gotten two dates already since I finished the book last month, and even though those didn't work out, I'm confident that my perfect match is still out there.  This book is a "must have" for all of you others out there like me; unattractive and lonely.  Thanks Eric!
This book gives a weak perspective on the topic. There is really nothing appealing in its pages, just a complilation of narratives with a weak analysis. If you don't have really anything  do this book will entertain you for a while, but I wouldn't count on learning anything from it.

If you followed the kind of advice in this book in the New England community where I live, you would soon fry. Every body knows everybody else's business here. Sweetly seducing everyone only works if you have a reputation that lets you get away with it. Weber's book takes no notice of the fact that much social success, with  or anyone else, has  do with A.  one constantly conducts oneself in public anyway, and B. what kind of general reputation and standing one has. These are the real ways shyness is demolished: considering one's image in the community at large, and acting thereupon.

The truth is, any idiot can become a ladies man, if he gives  all his idiot hobbies, and devotes himself  the project. Its all a matter of diligent and careful practice, just like anything else. Being willing  make a few mistakes and fall on your face once in awhile, helps. Yet dont fall too hard. You still gotta be able   yourself . Its just like doing anything else. You want a real romance ? Then you make the sacrifices  get it, and abandon your tv set, stamp collection, and playing pool seven nights a week. Gimme a break.
Social skills are relative. Figure which ones work for you and the social circle you insist on staying in. And its no good if you dont know your scene, and expect friendliness  carry you thru, and get laffed at for playing '  artist,' when all your thought you were doing was being sociable.

Yet be forewarned. One of the most disgusting manifestations of social life are the amateurish 'social engineers' and their spies who actually regard you and your social goals as a kind of petri dish  try their sadistic experiments in. These people, sometimes under the guise of professionals. They operate in the interest of their own social power,  your loss. They go out, and in ways you may not be aware of,  monitor people in their normal, everyday lives, and provoke and create social rifts and problems in your life you didnt think could possibly exist. Then you may get set   take the fall, and stand there in astonishment as your honest, sincere social efforts are cast in a light that makes you look like a stalker, a snake, a crook, a maladjusted social wierdo, or whatever. Alot has  do with your general reputation among the group your with. By then, it all may be too late. This is especially true if you are hanging around people who arent too bright. We are not only known by the company we keep: we are often destroyed along with them, or even by them, one way or the other.

And getting crushed in the vise of some whackos exercising some new social theory, can be very unpleasant, especially when they think they can pass blame on  some other fool along the chain of command. As their own internal miscommunications arise, you could get majorly shortchanged in their schemes, as incompetence rises  its fullest, most destructive manifestation. Their plans may be skewed. Dont fool yourself. Watching out for your good luck may not figure into their plans. Beware !

These manipulative 'professionals' see advantages for themselves in controlling other people, including idealistic and naive people, and could care less what they do  you, your emotions, your personal life, or even your nervous system and your health. They could care less about your feelings, your goals, etc. This is not paranoia. This is being practical. Dont give  your social life just because such phenomena exist.  With a right understanding of all this social espionage, these social dangers and pitfalls, you can steer clear of such poisonous eventualities as being treated like some sort of experimental lab rat.

Cranks like Eric Weber, out  make a buck on peoples desperation hinging on their imaginary social problems, wont warn you about these larger dangers. They may even be in cahoots with them. Weber sells his book  the desperate; and the social observer fascists go out and exploit your folly. They both get paid, while you end  in misery. Isnt that just marvelous!
There may be a special place in hell for these social exploiters, and life  and relationship wreckers. However, for now, just be forewarned, and try  avoid having  deal with them by making super intelligent social choices in the first place. Some day we can be free of them, if we frighten them away. Take control of your own life. Be on the lookout. Be the observer, not the observed. 

Real social power is the issue here. The person who doesnt cultivate their personal social power, will find themselves exploited for saying the same things and being in the same places and doing all the same things everyone else does, and doesnt get criticized or alienated for. And your complaints about being treated unfairly may be useless, although marginally gratifying  yourself. With power, you get a variety of unspoken respect that gilds everything you are, and smooths your path. Without it, you catch hell just for showing . Basically, thats it. 

Real romance may never be easy. Most guys, however, simply meet their female friends through other friends. Of course, you wouldnt be reading this if you were carving out a relationship with a female in your crowd, or were pretty cool about who youve been meeting at parties and such. So cultivate some socially acceptable form of expressing yourself, romantically and even sex appeal wise  no, it doesnt matter what you look like: sex appeal is natural, just keep trying  express it til it comes thru naturally.  You want  be able  atttract, without being mocked, receiving cat calls from the sidelines, or attracting negative attention from people who want  exploit you because they think they can get away with labeling you a 'womanizer,' and make themselves look better, and create misery for you. Dont overdo it. Its a real balancing act of discretion and cultivated social ability. Take it easy at first, gradually you puzzle it out, Rome wasnt built in a day. Just avoid letting yourself feel too frustrated along the way. 

After awhile, say a month or so, you should be able  'express interest without expressing it,' so  speak, and not get much  negative feedback  deal with. You'll figure out   look self confident, project an image from a distance, make a sidelong, non threatening look at a female some distance away as she walks by, successfully communicating your interest without being too obvious, and watch her response. You CAN cultivate a look and style that will not be misinterpreted as dangerous. Your confidence will build by stages, with each effort along the way. Even if she doesnt smile, her eyes may communicate what you want  know. Walk past her. Then double back, and meet her at the bus stop or whatever, and make a perfectly innocuous, friendly remark about the weather or the time, as a conversation starter. Youll get the knack. Get a prior sense that this girl could be good  talk .

Just do it so you dont get nervous, and watch for responses, smiles, friendly tones, quickly widened inviting eyes, and all the rest of the human communication syndrome that goes on between the sexes. Take it from there. If it doesnt tick, she may not be a likely prospect. Roll back, try again later with someone else. Also, be aware that a female may seem  give you the 'green light' and attract you, when she may not be normal, and may simply be looking for a chance  act out her own hang  , and even exploit you, make you feel uncomfortable, or even get you into major trouble. Dont get lured by every loony who walks by. .Thats enough advice  go on. Social situations vary, no one can give you 'the perfect formula.' No one really needs  spell it all out for you. Use your head. Use your common sense. With this, you should be able  create your own schema or constellation of casual, yet strong social skills  try out, evolving them along the way. Dont let it cripple you, wreck your life, etc. Use your head. Plan ahead. You have a right  improve your life.

Yet, females and those looking  hurt you thru them, may be watching. Thats why you gotta be on the lookout, and use common sense.  
Basically, thats it. You'll figure out what  add or modify. Just try  be firm, reasonable warm, and definitely polite throughout the whole process.
Yet you have  give an ample amount of time and energy for all this  happen in your life. And if your friends arent letting you do it, well, maybe its time  strike out a bit on your own, safely of course, and leave the other social obstacles back in the past and out of the way. 

Personality factors  work with ? One way it has been put, is that there's a dimension of  that goes for the 'good bad boy' in a man. She doesn't want a chicken, and she doesnt want a bullying fool, either. She wants a man who has the combination of social, personal, and political power  protect her, really. Clint Eastwood: 'A woman wants a strong man.' Study Clint Eastwood's character in his different films, for example. Some would think this silly: yet I say, watch them over and over. You'll get the point. The Dirty Harry films and the westerns are a good place  start  for the westerns, I particularly recommend 'Pale Rider' and 'High Plains Drifter.'  Watch Clint's films about 10 or 20 times each, catch his basic spirit, and your  problems will probably diminish  about zero.

Of course, the image you may prefer, and which works for you, may be more of the smiling 'party boy.' If it works for you, fine. Find out what does. I would suggest that some combination image of the partier who enjoys life, and the strong silent type, would be best. No, this does not negate your own personality, or your ability  wisely choose your words in conversation. It should only augment and modify these things. And if you don't sacrifice enough in your life  practice it, you'll get nowhere.

Strangely, the strong silent or, if you will, 'good bad boy' part of your personality and image is  be considered, even with regards  meeting the classiest, most intelligent girls. Brains may count with them. But some social and personal power, resilience/flexibility, and toughness does too, about as much as it does with more 'average' girls.

But what ever you do, don't fall too hard for the oft propounded image of the 'sensitive man.' You may have emotional susceptibilities, as a man, that you may be unaware of. Don't expose yourself in such a fashion as  end  brutalized. This is so, no matter what the nature of the social course you pursue. A woman may want you  be generally sensitive, or sensitive  her needs, more particularly. However, going around trying  be a 'sensitive man' all the time is like wearing a sign that says 'Kill Me Now.' Sorry, but that's just the way it works. This is so, in spite of fashionable trends in politics, pop psychology, new fangled 'Harvard Yard' social theorists and theories, and the rest.

There is nothing really wrong with Weber's little book, as a clustering of 'Win Friends and Influence People' type of advice. It just may not be worth twenty dollars. Whatever it is, try  cultivate your own community image along with your 'techniques.' Weber makes such a poor showing of his understanding of the issue of personal and social power for a guy interested in properly meeting a woman. These elements are essential, not just amusing ' ' lines and such.

Back when I was trying  save my life from what I thought was social maladjustment, when the real problem was, I was just hanging around a random collection of fools, I read pop psychology books about social life conduct. I even picked  Weber's book, along with a little black paperback of the most eligible men in New York City for a girl I knew, as a joke. Later I acquired others of Weber's "social skills" books he published. I wanted  compare his "self published" advice with that of the mass market stuff.
The truth is, all my attempts at socializing were deadly. My understanding was incomplete. I was going  any stupid party and bar that my 'friends' were going . Its not enough just  be a smiling, clever, partying face utilising all the right lines, with maybe a little consideration, compassion, and thoughtfulness thrown in.

My social successes attracted envious bullies and slighted females, as well as females who simply resented what I thought were kindly and harmless attentions. The other truth is, I was keeping company with some of the dumbest people in the world, even as far as the females were concerned    and this was, by and large, a college educated crowd!

A sound grounding of the principles of social image and social power would have done me alot of good, and helped me procure  better company earlier, and an immense amount of integrated, rational social power. Weber does not provide this guidance  not that I ever thought Weber's silly books could ever provide anything substantial.  In fact, in the entire realm of published literature, tapes, etc., I bet you will go a long way and spend alot of money trying  find useful ideas on this. I hope the ideas I offer here help. 
I eventually had  realize, among other things, that you had better be in the right company before you go around practicing all your brand new marvelous techniques. Alot of people, quite frankly, aren't at parties and bars  meet people. They are not always at museums waiting  be picked  by men  although, if you are going  meet a woman, you might as well get an intelligent one!  They are there  relax, hang out, play superior, be neurotic, or just observe. They might be drug dealers, or undercover cops. They might simply be crazy. You don't know these damn things!

 go about bravely and casually approaching any old stranger is, therefore, ridiculous. So before you go hunting down any females, be sure you've already hunted down the right social circle  ground yourself in! You'll feel alot more secure with a sound and previously established reputation behind you, and a solidly grounded personal network of individuals who constitute your connection with the community. From there, you can fly  the stars.
My main problem was, I hung around and overly trusted my circles of partying idiots too much. And I believed in the delusions of pop psychology.
As for meeting any old witless bimbo via the techniques of Eric Weber, life's too short  spend it chasing airheads.

Might I suggest another approach for the "shy guy": having realised that  are people too, now venture  gradually get  know as many single  as possible, just as friends, at first. Conducting yourself sociably, you will gradually wear down your resistances as you accumulate experience. Having gathered a measured amount of experience or "exposure"  a sufficiently wide variety of  over time, you'll gradually find things warming . Then the problem may become of an opposite nature.

In any event, success with  is exactly like success with anything else. You'll never be a writer if you never sit down  type. You'll never become a doctor if you don't study, if you steer clear of medical school applications, and maintain your terror of dissection rooms. And you'll continue  have problems with  if you don't start by charming your Aunt Tillie, and then work your way outwards with controlled determination.
You got  give certain things . You have  make the sacrifices,  get anywhere, with anything   or anyone.

Yes, there's more. I believe, however, you will be able  take it from here, utilizing what I have offered.

You have  see yourself doing it in your own mind, in order  accomplish things in your own life. Some careful training in 'visualisation' techniques, as offered  in various books in 'Creative Visualisation,' creative imagination and such, may help here. Therapy can be useful   even incredibly valuable for all areas of life.  Ultimately, I recommend a combination of therapy and these approaches I mention here above.  However, therapists are mainly concerned with the 'client patient' relationship. Therapists can, therefore, be notoriously useless in helping you gather the kind of social power you need 'out there'in the real world.

Take it easy but take it. And forget the cheap "Pickups 'R' Us" filth of a con man like Eric Weber. His techniques are for guys who want illiterate airheads for girlfriends.

"THIS IS NOT ANOTHER ONE OF THOSE     GIRLS  BOOKS". THIS IS A   GET MORE PUSSY BOOK!!! It empowers you  with indispensable, unfailing and irrefutable knowledge on   obtain an  abundance of pussy on multiple levels "guaranteed". The four basic primal  instincts that motivate men  work are food, shelter, money and sex. When  you need food you go  the grocery store, when you need shelter you see a  realtor, when you need money you get a job, and when you want more sex you  study THE AMERICAN MALES' GUIDE ON   GET MORE PUSSY This book is for  all adult American males no matter what race or social background. From age  18 years and over, blue collar, white collar, or no collar
This book is definitely what you are looking for if you want  buy sex for around $20. But if you are looking for a real, clean  non trailor park  woman.then honestly, don't read this book!
This book is more a directory of brothels, dance clubs with "happy ending" options, and   get a prostitute into a room than it is about meeting and getting .

It's really not that good at all.
I read the other reviews on the site and was very excited about thsi book, so I ordered it and eagerly awaited its arrival.When it came, I finished the book in one sitting. Unfortunately, the book did not live   my expectations nor did it fulfill what the other reviewers had said. As another reviewer pointed out, this book has very little information on   hook  with your regular  that you see on the street, at the grocery store, etc. On the other hand, for the 'hobbyist', this book is a good resource on the kinds of activities available for those who have the money and don't mind paying for sex. It is a one stop source for all kinds of information, addresses , phone numbers, links  internet resources for paid adult fun.

The grammatical style of the book leaves a lot  be desired. There are spelling mistakes, grammatical errors and a basic shoddiness about the book. I know that this is not intended  be a path breaking literary work, but the least that we cane xpect from a professional publishing house is for them  have good editors who sopt such mistakes and weed them out. Otherwise, you are left with a bad taste after reading this book, and it feels like you have just had a conversation with some one with very low education.
Overall, i rate the book a 3/5 merely for the information that it contains. If I ever decide  explore paid adult fun, then I know where  start lookingfor infomation, although it is by no means comprehensive. So in all, if you are looking for advice on   lay that cute girl next girl but have no clue   approach, this is definitely not the book for you.
