AFC Wingmen

You know, I’m totally spoiled.

Seriously.  The last couple days I’ve been out and about with some total AFC friends of mone.  One’s a "natural" and the other is a hopeless idiot when it comes to everything, especially women.  So to say the least, the fact that I reguarly go out with some of the "best PUAs in the world" has come to my attention, and appreciation.

I take for granted that when I go out with someone, they don’t know the game.  I was out with my hopeless AFC buddy the other day, and I pick up these two smoking hot women.  Both are American out here in Europe on vacation.  One is a little redhead from Boston, the other is a tall Armenian from Miami.  So I do all the hard work of opening them, getting them to sit down with me, etc.  I then accomplishment introduce them to my AFC buddy, who the whole time has been sitting at the table quietly.  And you know the first thing he says to the Armenian chick?  I’m talking about the very FIRST THING that comes out of his mouth?

"You are so beautiful."

Seriously.  That’s what he said.  He said that, to her face.  Genuinely, sincerely, said those words… out loud.

And while I don’t think it’s a bad thing to compliment women,  it should not be the FIRST THING YOU DO!  It quickly became obvious to me that this dude totally hadn’t talked to a girl in a loooooong time, since his follow-up after her rather polite "thank you" was:

"Can I call you sometime?"

Forget the fact that 1:  We’re in a foreign country, and 2:  He lives in LA and she in Miami, but the second thing out of his mouth is a number close, and a weak one at that.  It’s enough to make a guy wanna scream.  I ended up having to ignore my friend (that’s right, my buddy, who I am sharing a room with, became the victim of an ignore neg due to incompetence) and juggle the two girls myself.

This even extends to the natural I was hanging out with the past couple days.  Sure, he’s a good looking guy and good with women, however, he lacks basic understanding of wing rules.  Things like letting me control the set, occupying the obstacle, pushing for the sexual, etc.  Although, compared to my AFC buddy, things were EASY with this guy, he still managed to screw things up every once and a while, though when I was able to pull him aside (and he knows nothing about my affiliation with the PUA stuff) and explain to him what he’s doing wrong and why he needs to change his tactics, he understood and went along with it.

I think this experience has made me realize just how bad most guys out there must have it, especially with their AFC buddies who either are complete retards with the opposite sex, or just cockblocks, be it by choice or chance.  Either way, if you’re someone who is suffering from Poor Wingman-itis (PWI), I suggest you check out the "Lairs" section of the site and sign up for one near you so you can start meeting guys who can actually HELP you meet women as opposed to hindering you and your achievement of goals.

As for me, well, I can’t wait to get back to LA.  And my wingmen.  =)
