Alpha = Careless

Beta = Careful

Is this a matter of serotonin? Excessive anxiety and carefulness is caused by serotonin imbalance.

While we are at it, is there a significant difference between a beta and an a$$hole? I'm sadistic, not submissive.

carelessness and carefulness are qualities for decisions
if a beta is smart enough he can learn how to make some and fast

and yes there is a significant difference

I've heard the bit about the alpha engaging in risky behavior (or as the OP says, carelessness, or maybe recklessness).
Like you say, if the beta is smart he has a fair chance of outliving the alpha.

Risk taking is not the same as recklessness or carelessness. 'The Donald' is an Alpha. He certainly takes risks, but you can bet that he thinks long and hard beforehand. Clever, skillful and bold behavior .
Carelessness, and foolhardy behavior is more accurately described as just plain stupid.

Beta's are probably risk averse by nature so they are more likely to not trust their own judgement, agonize endlessly about the "what if's " and postpone or cancel action in favor of maintaining the status quo.

Ehh I would consider myself more careful than careless. I dont think you can define being Alpha or Beta on one characteristic.

I do plenty of risky behaivor only after weighing out the pros and cons.

Both.

First clockwise, and then she went counter-clock wise.

Goes to prove that we don't know a thing about the brain. If I were to bet, I'd say it's on the way the communication is wired. Leads me to think that after a certain age, there's no coming back or any self-help or bootcamp that can turn you from chump to champ. Game is a skill but it get you as far as your brain can handle. If by your early- to - mid 20s you're not a champ with women, then forget about it, you might as well learn how to live like that.
 

Don't always be the one putting yourself out for her. Don't always be the one putting all the effort and work into the relationship. Let her, and expect her, to treat you as well as you treat her, and to improve the quality of your life.

There's a curve. A lot of people don't get that until they reach the end. An AFC/beta is too careful. A jerk/douchebag is completely careless. A truly successful man pays attention to detail and uses it to his advantage. Whether it's in seduction or in a fight.

The key to being the REAL alpha Don Juan is this; adopt the AFC mindset but FROM A POSITION OF POWER. In other words, always with the willingness to change your mind at a second's notice. This is the ONLY difference between a chump and a champ. An AFC does benevolent things from a position of weakness. A man does them from a position of power.

Most guys that start out AFC and discover this pickup sh1t are content to go from one end of the spectrum to the other and just become douchebags. They feel so dejected that getting laid regularly by attractive women somehow fills a void inside them. It's like a drug to them. So they become hooked on it and they stop their evolution there. Hating everything they used to be. Forgetting that the ultimate end goal is the place between AFC and douchebag, not douchebag itself. So they remain suspended in limbo.

You will get laid a lot being a douchebag. You saw it in other guys when you were an AFC. But as a douchebag, you will never command respect. A man values respect above pvssy. Respect is the cornerstone of DJ.

I'm a jerk. It's not that I don't care I'm hurting girls, I actually like hurting girls. I have social anxiety so I care a lot more than normal people.

Little bit. Seretonin is tied to stress. The more seretonin and individual has, the calmer they are under duress.

Ummm... that might not be good. Sounds to me like you're carrying a grudge towards these women.
 

It doesn't matter how good-looking you are, how romantic you are, how funny you are... or anything else. If she doesn't have something INVESTED in you and the relationship, preferably quite a LOT invested, she'll dump you, without even the slightest hesitation, as soon as someone a little more "interesting" comes along.

England, baby!
This thread has become retarded, well it was from the start... there’s no real difference between beta/alpha brains, and how dominant you are is mostly LEARNED and embedded as a reaction to your environment and upbringing.

Whist there may be a little bit of genetics that determine how you respond or act to things and situations, and there’s a lot of environmental luck – your parents how they act/encourage you, your friends, other people, other influences you see, your social situation, social conditioning …etc…etc (a very complex set of influences)

You may be more dominant in one situation and totally weak in another

The best thing is that becoming a better more dominant MAN is achievable, it just takes effort

I just love how people make big bold statements on these boards without having a damn clue.

kingsam.. if u read a little bit beyond ur favourite PUA guru, u'd realise the thread starter might at least have a point.

Didn't Blueprint Decoded from RSD go into detail about all this?

Pretty sure they did.
