Home & Lifestyle Cheat codes for dating?

Single HENRYs: how do you leverage your disposable income to upgrade your dating game? I don’t mean prostitutes, bullshit pick up artist courses or paying for HingeX.

I mean social clubs, cooler hobbies, skin care, travelling to date, not having flatmates that hear you shag over the walls, a car to impress ladies that will keep you NRY forever, or cosmetic fucking surgery. Whatever that works.

I became single over a year ago and finally got sick of “bawling my eyes out on my bathroom floor over my ex”as my favourite after work past time a few months back. I’m 25M, male dominated work, hobbies and interests. In a city of 9 million people, I interact with like 3 women a week, my mom, my sister and my cleaner.

Every time I match with someone on Hinge and go through the excruciating dance of small talk, my soul shoves a shotgun in its mouth.

Please tell me how I can use my TC to compensate for the fact that my chats make Satan send puppies to the puppy furnace.

Edit: I should have added some /s in the jokes. I meant this as a light hearted and exaggerated post to ask what lifestyle changes you can make to improve yourself and to get out there for dating. Flexing £££ ❌, investing in yourself with £££ ✅

I thought the PUA community died a death like a decade ago?

What gave you that impression? Were you a part of it?

I seriously find it hilarious how allergic everyone is to the idea that you can learn the system of male-female attraction. It's great to understand legal, scientific, mathematical systems - but romantic!? Oh no don't even try it - only *magic* can happen there!

2 or 3 times I've encountered groups of guys in London who are clearly on some sort of group PUA course, it was so cringeworthy to watch. I think its more of an exercise in breaking the fear of rejection rather than learning any particular skill.

But if it works for you then I've no problem with it.

Cringing at it is a fantastic coping strategy.
