I've been in/out of the PUA community since my early 20s. I've already done hundreds to thousands of club/bar cold approaches. But I almost always in the past have done them with wingmen.
Primarily, the things I hate about wingmen:
- You are reliant on someone else to go out.
- Wingmen can be flaky and inconsistent.
I can carry a group or conversation on my own if the girls are remotely interested. I don't need help with that. Mostly when I've benefited from a wingman is just when he's taller and better looking than me so I can use him as an attractive "prop" to hook interest and not get blown off from the opener.
I've gone out on purpose to a few things in the past few years to test the waters - clubs, bars, concerts.
Just wondering if anyone has any experience or success with this and how you have found it.
