You're absolutely killing it will both consistency and quality of videos lately Todd! Glad you are still so passionate about the art of Game & how it can change men's lives for the better.
I don't know how Todd has 300k subs only, his advice is solid, he's believable, relatable, not overbearing or trying to sell or persuade you on anything, speaks from experience and has a great personality. I'm glad I found his channel. Last time I managed to bring a girl home was back in 2019 and I don't even know how it happened. Since last 2 months I've spend about 10-15 minutes daily on making notes and practicing during night game I was able to get multiple numbers, make out every time with at least one girl and even recently brought a girl home. I remember the video regarding symbolism from Todd and that's what helped me get laid last time! I knew exactly what made it happen and best thing was that it happened on a Thursday night :).
I absolutely love the evolution of this space. I always found the ‘self-amusement’ frame very clownish as well. Just found that the best interactions were ones where I was engaged and talking about cool things I was passionate and knowledgeable about. Passion translates soooo well.
I just wanted to say how much I appreciate your videos. They’re always succinct, sharp, and incredibly on point. I consider myself an OG in the game-I’ve been at this for a while and I’d like to think I’m pretty solid. But as I've gotten older, I’ve noticed myself easing into autopilot and practicing less. That's why I keep coming back to your content. Your videos are so technically complete, covering every angle of the game in a way that feels both comprehensive and easy to digest. Even after all these years, there's always something new to learn or a key insight to remember. As someone who's been in the game for a long time, I have to say, your ability to break things down and cover all aspects so thoroughly really stands out. You do an amazing job. Keep it up, man.
Dude, you should write a book series. Fundamentals book, fundamentals to beginner, beginner to intermediate... Every single book being all-encompassing. You would not only capture your current market but the market of men who are into self-help books.
I've done this once in the past. It did work. The girl even smiled. But it was in a social group. I didn't pay too much attention to it to apply elsewhere, nor did I know that I could. It's good to hear from a way more experienced male that "it's ok to do that". Btw, the situation was the following. A male friend of mine was talking non-stop about something that only he cared. And a female colegue with us was bored and not participating. I abruptly stopped him and asked her something about her and she lit up like a christmas tree and started talking about that. After a while she was like "wait... did you just do that?" and I was like "yep. anyway (continued the conversation). She kept smiling and talking with us.
I would say the perfect spot is to do self amusement, but you also do ask genuine questions that you want to know about her. You let her talk about herself mostly and you talk about yourself only a little while making the conversation fun.
been following for over a decade and i can say not only you are not boring but you are the closest human man that is close to perfection your game is master class along with your teachings even though its hard to cold approach in my country 1 million population in my city capital i have had alot of success due to todd
Literally most important factor before all this is be well rested. You can implement all the best techniques but if your tired your gunna be boring/ feel cba mood no matter what. First step is making sure youv had a good sleep and have the energy to create a vibe. Charisma all starts with energy and your mood
I always have great and interesting conversations whenever I tell the girl early on whenever we disagree on something "that's it, I'll divorce you over this"
I think You are not boring. What Ive learned from You is that You teach techniques in orden to become efficiently yourself, conveing who we actually are in the Best way posible. I can't use "techniques" that are not in sync with My personality and women notice that.
I'm willing to carry the burden of making conversations interesting for a while, but in the long run it needs to be mutual. I will most likely grow tired of her otherwise.
I've been doing improv classes for a year and the 'yes, and...' mindset is great for regular conversation. I still have trouble with approach anxiety and finding the perfect 'reason' to talk to them. The opportunity is often lost before that reason reveals itself.
You can be how interesting, engaging and open but sometimes some women are just plain boring and can't hold a conversation. So many of us men waste huge amounts of time on these women and we just need to move on quicker
There is a lot I can say on this subject. First, I'd say that I love Todd's content and his approach to technical game. And yes his game is boring lol. But, that's ok. It's technical and has a focus on verbals. There is so much great insights and tools he has, its great to learn about it. Just about any sticking point, there is a solution to it. Todd has something on just about everything. But, that doesn't mean it has to be in contrast to owen, julian or max. Those guys had great game and I learned all the fundamentals from them. My natural personality is right in line with the principals of what they taught (self amusement, freedom from outcome, free association, etc..). I just don't see it as one or the other. To me, the baseline should be amplifying your natural personality. Tap into that raw masculinity, self amused fun vibe you already have. And where you have sticking points, where you fall short, then stack whatever technical game you need on top of it. But, take advantage of what you already have. Just don't over game, just like Todd said. So yes, Todd your game is boring. haha, don't mean it in a bad way. I do think many guys will have a long learning curve if all they do is try to learn techniques. I still think the rsd style of what owen/Julian/Max were teaching is the best way to learn. But, I love Todd's techniques as well. I don't think it has to be one or other other.
Regarding your last question about being a boring coach. It's not true. I actually learnt my game from you years back through the course name 'SYSTEM'. However there is a part of me that went to stiff and technical because of your tremendous teachings that I needed to watch some of the Julien video to help my self breathe a little 😅. Your book referrals were amazing too like the Red queen, stranger in the strange Island but the couldn't finish up the Fountain head as it was too lengthy so I saw a 10min UA-cam summary of that book 😂 I think of you as a complacent and competent coach rather than a boring coach.
Advice for all men if their answer to what they do for a living is that they are nurse just run. Run and run fast. Don’t ask anymore questions just run. It will not end well 90% of the time they are the most toxic and have the biggest ego. Period to them there is not a job in the world that could compete with the difficulties and challenges that they face. And they believe it. The drama. Not to mention that they are among the highest for cheating and alcoholism. Just save yourself the trouble and run.
"if you were with your friends you wouldn't run out of things to say": Uhh, not really. I still only say things when something relevant comes up. The difference is, they have a vested interest in hanging around until something comes up to talk about. I'm not "uncomfortable with silence", I just have no reason to make someone stick around.
Im terrified to talk to women and honestly its not even because of rejection. Ive been rejected so many times. Im afraid of that awkward silence when I dont know what to say. If I can keep that from happening im golden
Hey there. If I could offer you some wisdom - it's great that you've identified a weakness of yours. But the long term solution isn't to mask the weakness/insecurity. You have to face it and get over it. Otherwise, it will always come back to haunt you once day. For example, if you learn to mask it, you may realize some success in the dating phase with women - you may find yourself in a relationship. And then a rough day will come when you fail to avoid the "awkward" silence, and suddenly you'll feel terribly insecure again causing a spiral. If I could also offer you this; it helped me a lot personally to realize that not only are a lot of people are actually comfortable with silence, not finding it awkward at all - but even those who find it awkward generally respect you a lot more if you're able to sit with a brief silence and not freak out. It builds tension and shows your inner confidence
Say SOMETHING, Best is if you learn all the wisdom you can from Todd, and combine it with wisdom from Newell of Knowledge 's many videos, such as _"how to ask questions that make people love you"_ COMBINE WISDOM from both these men !
Sometimes the awkward silence is because the girl just doesn't have a great personality or the chemistry between the 2 of you isn't good. Other times, it's just a cue to shift the conversation somewhere else. And other other times it's my cue to end the conversation
From 1 to 10 where 1 is brain dead computer geek and 10 is Jim Carrey I'd say you're like a decent 6/7, naturally not super exciting but having the knowledge of when to inject excitement every step of the way
Sad that people have become so disconnected with smart devices and social media that they actually need these conversation tips for live human interaction. 🤦🏻♂️
There is time where you need to qualify,once she is in, you gotta carry the further dates with the flawless conversations to keep it going,so there is range of variation in game,you can't play same string everytime with same girl you got in, otherwise it will obviously grt boring😁
You are the only coach who gives specific techniques, actions and lines, and not just abstract advice with a lot of empty words.
yeah all the abstract bs is really really annoying.
Only boring thing was that those old coaches are out of business and your still very relevant. Thanks Todd, you da man. Doing gods work bro!!
Todd is one of the few who teaches TRUE game. He is doing God's work.
Lmao the teachings of Neil Strauss Ross Jeffries, mystery or David d are still priceless if you got the material lol, it’s the best stuff out there
@@brianslender4220 true but to be fair, they weren't Todd's generation.
Honestly a lot of those old coaches retired bc they made so much money off us already
Foreal the best and most consistent dating coach. You actually give examples and techniques. Thank you so much brother

How many approaches have you done? Since when are you watching his videos? How many success rate?

"self amusement" guys are usually the most obnoxious self absorbed douchebags you can find. like for example laughing at their own jokes.

Solid tips. Useful in other settings too, not just in dating.
LOL yes I do run out of things to say even with my friends
Thank you for making this video Todd.
You were never boring Todd - you just did more with less and so many naturals in the game had the highest respect for your style ☝🏾
I would say the perfect spot is to do self amusement, but you also do ask genuine questions that you want to know about her. You let her talk about herself mostly and you talk about yourself only a little while making the conversation fun.

Once the conversation starts getting boring, I say "hey let's play a game, never have i ever"
Just start talking about Todd's pickup concepts with her
lol
I knew a girl that would probably find that interesting.
It actually worked😂
I like your videos Todd thanks so much. What you’re doing is not boring at all.

You used to be super boring and super technical, but you have successfully toned it down a little lately. Warm greetings from Greece, man 😉
I'm willing to carry the burden of making conversations interesting for a while, but in the long run it needs to be mutual. I will most likely grow tired of her otherwise.
Well of course, when she gets interested she will maintain the convo, her not maintaining the convo is just low interest level.
I've been doing improv classes for a year and the 'yes, and...' mindset is great for regular conversation. I still have trouble with approach anxiety and finding the perfect 'reason' to talk to them. The opportunity is often lost before that reason reveals itself.
You can be how interesting, engaging and open but sometimes some women are just plain boring and can't hold a conversation. So many of us men waste huge amounts of time on these women and we just need to move on quicker
And that's the reason why women want men superior to them. They want the traits they don't have from us😅
Boring no you're a cool dude
Remember women love to talk. What you say and how you say it is one of the key things you can use to get amazing results for your whole life.
Todd, do a video how to not get overwhelmed when learning game
Perfect timing!
Very helpful thak you todd.
By the way im a student of VerbalGame Academy how do i go about getting in person training?
Thank you.

I feel so whelmed just bt watching this video 😆
You're genius, my dude

I should never start a sentence with I hate because my brain went dark 😂😂😂 no pun intended
You know, after watching many of these vids , calculus doesnt seem so hard anymore

If youre completely restarted, then just self amuse until you can make her relate
Yes Sensei
Not boring, just not interrupting the flow with spazzy electronic music, ads, and annoying edits. I prefer your unadulterated content.
The dude in the thumbnail is exactly the dude that should be trying pua lol
If you're a 6 on your way to becoming a 9 would you recommend starting with 3s 4s and 5s or 6 thru 19s?
Tod if you can’t approach women and you are out of state completely,is it good idea to go home and try again next time?
How does interrupting with a good idea "look" like?
"if you were with your friends you wouldn't run out of things to say": Uhh, not really. I still only say things when something relevant comes up. The difference is, they have a vested interest in hanging around until something comes up to talk about. I'm not "uncomfortable with silence", I just have no reason to make someone stick around.
Todd, stop aging on us😢 we need you
Todd is like fine wine he only gets better with age.
Do only boring people get bored or is it only boring people who don’t experience boredom?
Todd can you differentiate between a pause, comfortable silence and a pregnant pause that needs to be broken
"You don't run out of things to say around your friends". Yes I do. HALP.
Not boring. The champion in the "game" community
What do you mean ?
@nadeemahmd9912 he's one of, if not the best in teaching us about social skills and how to talk to women.
ur still the goat
what should I do if after I shared my funny thoughts or story, she didn't respond
Im terrified to talk to women and honestly its not even because of rejection. Ive been rejected so many times. Im afraid of that awkward silence when I dont know what to say. If I can keep that from happening im golden

How does todd look younger. Hes aging in reverse
Good advice for any conversation anywhere to anyone
Damn bro how old are you now
Goat 🐐👌
Fo m I don't talk about toward child support related questions. She b all how much money u make. 😊
FIRST PLEASE ADOPT ME
Love Todd but buddy is a little to old to still be in the game

Todd,all the things you suggest in this video sound desperate to me. Why not qualify the girl instead???😅
There is time where you need to qualify,once she is in, you gotta carry the further dates with the flawless conversations to keep it going,so there is range of variation in game,you can't play same string everytime with same girl you got in, otherwise it will obviously grt boring😁
This guy is a clown 🤣
Yes and?
have you ever considered that if conversation runs dry you are just not vibing with the person and it is futile to continue?
She doesnt excite me

Todd, you're boring in an amusing and engaging fashion!
