The PUA Quadrant

Have you ever met a guy who would be soooo good with women if he would just settle down and talk like a normal human being? Or what about good-looking, normal guys like yourself? Don't you sit home and tell yourself, 'if I would have hit on 10 girls this week instead of 1, I wouldn't be sitting home alone tonight'?

I think we've all had questions like this. I've met several guys of each type. Let's start from the bottom right quadrant and work our way up.

4. Fearful & Unpredictable. This the worst situation to be in. A computer nerd who turns out to be kind of a weird guy would fall into this category. Not only is he scared to approach women, when he talks to one, he says things to screw himself up. He will never be successful.

3. Fearless & Unpredictable. These guys can do relatively well for themselves. Often, they do much better than guys in Quadrant 2. They have no fear of approaching women, so they approach many. They may scare 90% away by touching them, lifting up their skirts, or asking to see their tits, but on the 10% who think they're funny, it's on! These are "playboys" who give foreigners in Japan a bad name. They are the type to embarrass you by talking about sex in a restaurant of people, or else the type who don't show up for arranged meetings.

2. Fearful & Predictable. A normal person. If you're the type of person to be reading this blog, then you are likely in Quadrant 2. Most of the time, I fit here. All of my friends fit here. Normal guys talk normally, and normal guys feel nervous, shy, or fearful when they talk to new women they want to have sex with

1. Fearless & Predictable. Doesn't exist! This is the guy we become when we follow the rules of Solohunt 2.0 (linked to Glossary). We can be this guy if a girl gives us eye contact first, or if we've had a few drinks. If a girl is an 8+ on the NuBreed Looks Scale ("Ratings"explained in Profile) and I attempt her unconsciously, then I will fit here. I can also become this guy when I'm warmed up after talking to several girls that day. However, I don't know anyone who wakes up in the morning as a number 1.

This kind of sums up the types of guys you see hunting. If you're a 2, as you likely are, then you'll understand why that crazy #3 guy is getting more girls than you - he talks to so many more. It may be some consolidation that his percentages suck. In short, what we need is confidence boosters, or things to help us overcome shyness to talk to more girls. It's a numbers game, and the more anyone talks to, the more he gets.
