Game: What you say is IRRELEVANT. Who you are is EVERYTHING.

So a few days ago I posted a couple small pieces on why SMV > Game (RP stuff) and I just came across a PRIME example of this in play.

So today I went to a function with a group of girls, ranging from 6s-9s. Notably; "N", a single girl with enormously high standards and "G", a girl with a overseas Army boyfriend. Drinks, fun, & conversation was had until a cute kid ~7 years old came across our group. My detective side immediately came in and knew something was amiss about his presence, but I let the interaction play out without any interference. The boy started off by charming the group of girls, and went into showing them some magic tricks. Failed attempts to make items disappear and coins teleport went into his final act, requesting a note card. Veiled as another trick, he asks G to write her name down on the card, then asks for her number. Bashfully the boy states, "my dad is alone and really wants a girlfriend." The girls "dawwwwwww" in unison and G complies. The trickster takes the card and passes it to the next girl, so on and so forth. I can see 100% through the thoroughly rehearsed game, but listened in to the girls reaction. N smiled, "maybe his dad owns the venue!", the next girl remarked, "I hope he's cute as the kid!" All the girls in agreement.

I chop in once the boy has departed, "you know this was pure, scripted, manipulation,.. right?" Silence. The whole group simply brushes it off on the high of how cute the entire interaction was.

Later in the night the girls spot the same boy, now with his dad; except the handsome, wealthy, young, single dad is none of that. He's a fat, 40+, balding man with a sleazy grin on his face. The boy returns to the group, "my dad wants to meet you girls now." IMMEDIATELY the girls turn the boy away and jump to, "I can't believe he would USE his son like that!" "What sleazy way to meet girls!" N even chimed in with a, "That was such a horrible thing to do, I'm about to cry." They even started to gain momentum amongst each other to walk up to the father of the year and tell him off, but ultimately decided against it.

Well there you have it. Even when called out on bullshit they will simply refuse to acknowledge reality. Your style of game is almost irrelevant if your SMV is high enough. The only thing the dad did wrong is not be attractive. Otherwise the girls had absolutely, no, problem with his method. Sad actually, but learn from this. Stop watching pick up videos and pick up some weights and work some OT at your job. That's really all that matters. The take away is a man attempts (horribly in my opinion) to utilize his situation with women. If he's high SMV, "omgggg how precious!" If' he's low SMV, "what a terrible amoral bastard!"

Oh yeah and did also notice Army wife was 100% ready to upgrade to hot business owner single dad, but suddenly her "morals" kicked in once he had lower SMV than her current boyfriend. Hypergamy. Sad.

SMV > Game

Preface: SMV, Sexual Market Value. Your "out of ten" rating. 

Earlier today a friend sat down with me griping about a woman that, "gave him that look." I typically do not feed into these rants, but he reminded of a situation I had once witnessed before and I could not help but bring it up here. 

Friend: So I was walking down the street and there was this hot ass chick; low cut pink top, super tight leggings with letters on the back, I mean, you couldn't help but look! And then when she catches me staring she looks at ME all pissed off. If you didn't want me to stare you shouldn't have dressed like that! How cant she get mad at ME. 

Carmine: She's not mad at you looking, she's mad at you not being attractive.

F: That's dumb.

C: If there was a 45 year old woman 60 lbs overweight you'd be all mad at seeing that, Not because she is wearing that outfit, but because she's not attractive... I am willing to bet if that first girl caught (insert "hot" actor or athlete) staring she'd be overjoyed. It's not the look (game), it's your SMV.

Which brings me back to something I witnessed several years back. I knew a girl, lets call her Jenn. Jenn was a hot little mixed thing who eventually married a professional athlete. I remember being at parties with her and watching her interactions with men. The first man was a tall, muscular, black, well dressed guy.

Man 1: Damn, your teeth are wayyyy too white to be real!

Jenn: What?? You're so dumb!

M1: When did you get them done? Veneers or Lumineers?

J: They are MY TEETH. *playfully hits M1* Where did you get your teeth!

And this conversation went on with similar banter. Later in the night I saw a slightly chubby, nervous, eyes darting everywhere, dressed like the wanna-be-black kid in every movie early 2000's. 

Man 2: Your necklace so shiny! It's blinding me!

Jenn: Oh, sorry.

M2: Where did you get it? It's so baller.

J: I don't know, a store. 

You can see where this conversation went. I can dish out plenty of examples of how SMV plays into your game, but the lesson to take away is this: SMV trumps Game, every time. Literally both guys approaching Jenn were running the SAME APPROACH, but one could hardly get a word out. 

Listen, if the girl is putting enough time into her appearance that you are going to want to approach her, you can rest assure that she is going to want a man that does the same.

So if you have invested countless hours reading and watching game theory / advice, but have done little to improve your fitness, style, or career; stop. Do a push-up, get an appropriate haircut, put in some OT at work. The game is easier when you start in the lead.

10 Bite Sized Doses of Red Pill Knowledge

This is something I posted that enjoyed great success on TRP. It does not cover all aspects of TRP knowledge, but something I have kept handy as a sort of primer before I go out or have someone over. Unlike the original post, there is a small explanation beside each point.

1) It's not win-lose, it's win-learn

• Never get down on yourself for trying or being rejected, for anything. Always take everything as a learning experience as you develop your game and overall life. As long as you are trying & learning, you are doing it right. 

2) Statements > questions

• When escalating use a statement. "Let's grab coffee" is infinitely better than "Would you like to go somewhere with me sometime?" 

3) Don't tell, show

• Ever hear chicks dig confidence, but not arrogance? Tone down the talk about your talents and accomplishments. Let them subtly reveal themselves as you move through the relationship.

4) Maintain your frame

• Immediately from the first interaction you must frame the relationship as a man seeking to be intimate with a women. The moment you let her control the frame into something else you have lost.

5) Run dread game

• Ever wait eagerly for something to release only to find that once you had it in your possession you no longer cared for it? Same for relationships. CH has an amazing article on this that everyone should read given the time. 
• http://heartiste.wordpress.com/2008/03/27/dread/

6) Don't overshare

• Someone on TRP once said something to the affect of, "When she must speculate, her attraction flourishes. When she knows, it withers." Leave some mystery, be elusive. 

7) Dealing with shit tests; agree & amplify, reframe, or ignore

• Whenever you are being tested as a man for what she can get away with, always use one of the three approaches. My favorite is simply to ignore. Don't feed into the game, maintain your frame and only do what you feel. 

8) The Golden Ratio: give 2/3rds of attention you receive

• When appropriate, make certain all interactions have you only giving 2/3rds of what you receive. Make your messages shorter. Take longer to reply. Be emote less in interactions.

9) Kino, escalate from the very beginning

• Every relationship is a bit awkward in the beginning. You do not know each other, so you are trying to find comfortability with each other. If you do not push into that awkwardness in the start and she becomes comfortable with you as a non-physically involved friend, going back to that awkwardness stage to push forward is all the more difficult. Then you become stuck. 

10) If they feel it, they do it, & rationalize it later.

• "I have a boyfriend." "I can't stay out late tonight." "My friend is waiting for me." Are all shit tests. I seldom go into the deeper parts of TRP theory, but this is something that has proven true to me on several occasions. As long as you're exciting and fun in the moment, responsibilities and prior commitments mean NOTHING. 

Always happy to elaborate & discuss in the comments.

What is True Carmine?

After several years lurking & observing the online PUA community I was able to propel myself from somewhat successful, to mostly successful, to outright burdened with success. This was not without a large period of trial and error.

With so many PUA hopeful and pretenders it is easy to get caught up in the massive amounts of half truths, bad information, and flat out lies. Some educate game, but leave out fitness. Others promote appearance, but forget success. Even communities such as TRP are losing their quality simply due to the common drawbacks of becoming "too popular". By taking time out of my day I would like to give back to communities like TRP to help educate those who seek to help themselves.

To put it simply; I want to bring you the quickest, unfiltered, easiest to read and absorb, game. Lessons from several authors cut up and served in one, daily, red, dose. Carmine.
