subject: The Importance Of Social Value [print this page] When you are going out and gaming Social Value is a factor that should NOT be underestimated as it can greatly affect your success.
Now when you are going out and hitting clubs/bars/pubs e.t.c it helps to make sure you are having a good time and are associal-ableas possible - basically network - the more people you get to know the more people you will be introduced to and it will greatly help improve your game.
To help explain I will write my discovery of social value, back in the days when i was just starting out in the game and how it helped me to increase my value:
Firstly, I started to go out to a bar in my local area with just a few friends. I gradually started to become more of a regular there (it was actually a lot to do with the comments and articles I had read on becomeaplayer.com that actually opened my eyes to the importance of social value that made me want to see if i could use this to my advantage) and as i was out with my friends, we would occasionally bump into people we knew there, as people from all over the area came there on a Tuesday night. A lot of them were people that we went to school with, so we had connections to them.
After a while they introduced me to a few girls (who were very open and happy to talk as it was a 'friend' of their friend) and due to the fact that we had freinds in common, they were more receptive than they would have been had I approached them with a cold approach.
Eventually as we began to see these girls there more often, they started to run up to us and grab us whenever they saw us and introduce us to THERE friends. It was at this point the little lightbulb switched on and it hit home just how important social value was and how it would make meeting more women easier than ever before.
This time when I went over I was much more confident as a person and always had a great time, eventually after a while, I would ALWAYS bump into someone I knew - making my social value in this venue very high.
I am now at the point where i can walk into the place and i have at least 3-4 girls I know coming over, saying hi and introducing me to yet more freinds. I am networking ALL the time - it's like Facebook in the real world!
It even means that almost anywhere I decide to go clubbing in london I will always find someone i know whether it is a pivot, pawn, or even wingman/woman (Read the TNB for explanations on these terms).
I felt it was important to share this information, as girls are especially receptive to someone who is 'popular' (in other words has high social value).
Now, hopefully, if you have read this post and had that little bulb switch on for you like it did for me you can start to apply this and get your own social network going in your home town.
Remember good things come if you are having fun and not hung up on getting laid, so get out there and enjoy yourselves!
