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.

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.
