About script/routine/gambit
First, let's look at what these terms are, and later we can decide if it's worth learning them or not.
1) What is a script in seduction?
A script is a PLAN to follow. The most simple script is this:
Say an OPENER....
a) if she answers ---> keep talking
b) if she rejects you ---> let her go.
Of course, if you continue to talk, there are other things you can do to build attraction, otherwise it is just a friendly/platonic conversation.
When you talk with a woman, you need to build attraction and a script will teach you exactly how to do this and WHEN
A more complex script look like this:
You start with an opener within 3 seconds, if she says something you start talking by including DHV, qualify, push-pull, routine/gambit. Now you need to look for IOI signs, if there are NO IOI signs you need to continue DHV, Qualify, Routine... or if she shows IOI then you start with KINO and a compliance test. If she is NOT compliant you need to do more DHV, qualify, routine otherwise if she is compliant you can prepare to CLOSE and do as you wish. Maybe ask for number, maybe a kiss, escalate to KINO or even build more rapport for an instant date.
It seems difficult at first, but actually this is the way you will talk to a girl whether you consciously use the script or not.
2) What is a routine/gambit in seduction?
In short, these are things to say/do to create a dynamic and playful conversation.
These are jokes or games designed for escalation. Without experience, you cannot have funny/interesting/playful responses - just as you cannot make up new jokes unless you have heard them before.
For example, during a conversation with a new girl, you can always expect to be asked "What do you do for a living?", you can give a direct cold answer: "I work at Starbucks, and you?"
If you want a playful conversation, make a joke out of this answer:
a) "I work at Starbucks, but now I am learning from the Internet... how to do Japanese massage. Give me your hand to massage your finger"
b) "I work at Starbucks, but now I learn from the internet... striptease lessons, all day I took off my pants and put on my pants, do you want to see how I do this with two fingers?"
You don't need to memorize an answer like that, you just need to know that you can give a funny answer that will help you create a playful and dynamic conversation.
If you are a naturally social and funny person, you will come up with your own jokes, but if you are just starting out, it is a great help to learn a few routines to have a more interesting conversation.
Once of the most easiest way of using a routine/gambit is making assumptions:
- instead of saying "So what do you do for a living?" you say: "you look like a stripper or an accountant, I can't tell which"
- "What do you do?".... becomes ...."You're probably a teacher aren't you. You have this save the world vibe about you"
- "So what are you doing tonight".... becomes ..... "So what are you doing tonight.. wait let me guess, you're getting drunk, you're picking up boys, and you're looking after the other two"
I repeat, if you are a social person and can make jokes out of thin air, you don't need to learn routines/gambits!
- A man who is social and has experience talking to other people will know what to say and what to do to have an interesting conversation.
- A man who is a beginner, he has no experience in talking with other people will have difficulties to create an interesting conversation and for this reason when a moment of silence appears during the conversation, he can use a routine/gambit.
What some people are saying about routine/gambits
1. Some people make fun of routines and say: "Hahaha, and what do you do when you don't have a routine, you don't know what to say...".
Well, a routine/gambit is a joke, you can have a conversation without using a joke! That's it! There is no need to make jokes while talking, but if you do, you create a dynamic conversation. The same way with routines, there is no need to use a routine, but if you do, you create a dynamic and playful conversation.
2. Some people say that when you use a script, you sound robotic, like you don't know what to say or what to do.
Now that you know what a script is and what a routine is, I hope you see the nonsense of such a statement. We are humans, not robots, a script is just "if she reacts a certain way, keep doing X, if not Y" and a routine is a joke to make a conversation dynamic and playful. If you want to make a joke, you use a routine or if you are a creative person you invent a joke (however without experience I doubt you will invent a joke).
3. Many people say that "seduction" is a natural process, there is nothing to learn! Well.... swimming is also a natural process, every wild animal knows how to swim, but a human needs to be taught how to swim otherwise he can't! Yes, you can learn to swim naturally by trial and error, and you can also learn how to talk to women by trial and error. If you want to learn that way, go ahead! If you want to learn faster, then sit down and learn the theories.
4. Some people say if you don't need to learn any script/routines/theory, just "be yourself", say whatever you want, be honest.
Of course, you can say whatever you want, but as I said above, if you want to make a dynamic conversation, you will make a joke or you will make a routine/gambit. It is up to you. Are you a social person? Can you hold a conversation? Congratulations! Don't learn a joke, don't learn routines/gambits. However, if you know you are not a social person, you know you have problems keeping a conversation going, then you definitely need a routine/gambit, because these things will keep a conversation going and will easily create a topic to talk about.
5. Other people mock the seduction concepts saying that if a girl is not attracted to you, the seduction concept will not work. They say a girl is either attracted to you or she doesn't like you. Well... what they don't mention is the category in the middle, when the attraction level is in the middle, and now it's up to you what you do and what you say to increase or decrease the attraction level..
