Rage,

I just read your post on seducer mind vs inventor mind in entry number 10 and it sounds extremely similar to some of the male archetypes described in King, Warrior, magician, Lover, which is a fantastic read! I finished it a month or so ago

So if you still have interest in that stuff I'd check it out.

But I can completely relate.... Some days I want to go fuck a zillion girls and other days I just want to spend time in my own head pondering life.

If you do, let me know what you think of it.

I absolutely must Lotus, thanks for the book recommendation! I’ve watched numerous videos and know a lot about the topic without having read the book yet. I see the parallels and archetypes in my own life and want to read this book. Think I will get it today and begin reading because have finished the last book I read.

I’ll tell you man, I just fucking got back from the gym and am irritated as hell a bit because I was training heavy contest prep style powerlifting workout and was in full warrior mode.

And there was a girl who’s quite cute who is a regular in the squat rack next to me who gave all the approach invitations and iois possible and hung out forever in the squat rack next to me till she left frustrated that I wouldn’t talk to her.

And I could easily talk to her, but in that workout I don’t give a fuck about girls and am in the pursuit of the sport for sport’s sake (driven by glory and conquest and achievement and that warrior like masculine progress I guess). It bugs me because I can’t in my head reconcile all this without feeling cognitive dissonance.

I want to talk to the girl right then and flirt with her and slow game or see where it goes, but I know if I do that the workout isn’t hit as hard as it would be otherwise and lacks. This latter option happened a few days ago; when I’m doing offseason training I’ll be laid back a bit will talk to more girls and stuff. Talked to those girls at the expense of not getting in the volume and intensity and ideal rest intervals and all that the other day. In those moments at the gym I seem to prioritize lifting over girls; I just want to lift and it pisses me off when I’m not doing all I can to progress and better and give 150% at the workout. But part of me yearns to talk to girls and build the skill of seduction up too and when I’m lifting there’s that clash of wanting to do the other thing right then at the same time.

This girl wanted it so bad and I let her down poor thing; she’s introduced herself to me multiple times, and I’ve talked to her a little bit, but I’ve just smiled or said a couple words and then got back to my workout. There’s a fury in my eyes that takes me over at that point when I workout and the hottest girl in the world couldn’t distract me from my weights then…



Likely though that the guys that progress furthest with pickup give this same level of work ethic and seriousness to when they are meeting and interacting with girls.

I just wonder if I can progress at both skills; or at some point eventually I will have to back off the powerlifting as the primary skill being worked on and will make seduction primary skill I’m working on. Sounds absolutely blasphemous in my own head to say that right now… but I don’t know what the future holds of course

Cheers,

Rage

Cool! This is a bit random but I actually bought it on my kindle app and used it as a way to avoid time sinks on my phone since they are addictive. Whenever I have free time and I'm not at home I just read there. Hope you don't mind I mention it here but this just reminded me of it :)

I completely get that and I do the exact same thing when i play soccer right now. I've joined a meet up group that plays regularly and as the social person I am I would want to talk to and get to know everyone.... but during soccer fuck that shit. All i care about is winning. We rotate though one goal games so after you lose you are off, my team normally sits together and socializes, meanwhile I'm off pacing or stretching on my own trying to understand why we just lost. If i'm not the best player on a given night and scoring the most goals I'm pissed haha.

Do you ever feel that way about guys lifting more than you?

Anyway have you considered something like, "Hey, I think you cute and I'd like to get to know you better, but I hate getting losing focus from my workout. Text me if you want to get together for XXXX."

Law of least effort. Takes only 1-2 minutes and if she is really interested like the IOIs suggest she will text you. I don't think something that quick and straight forward would take away from your workout especially if you go right back to hitting it hard. She can watch you go to town on the weights and imagine you railing her. I mean fuck if I was her I would text you haha.

It's also going to communicate how high value and confident you are that you won't even take time away from lifting to talk to a girl. Most guys will probably try to chat her up, no not you.

I had a girl do that to me in the bar earlier in the year because she didn't want to leave her friends to talk to me, but was attracted to me. At first I thought it was a blow off, but when I realized it wasn't and she responded it was a huge turn on. With a bit of luck I fucked her on the first date.

Hope you don't mind my ramblings :)

Haha dude I do the exact same thing !!!! (for the same reason too… lot of dead time gets spent way more productively that way); we’d make good friends in person I bet man lol :)

Do you ever feel that way about guys lifting more than you?

I played soccer for 10 years man, and was like that with soccer first (very rage to master and obsessed at getting good at it). I actually found an old assignment from first grade that my sister dug up amongst others the other day, that said I wanna be a soccer player when I grow up. I miss it very much and still have that passion for it; it’s just in my current pursuits now, but am still really always up for a game.

I was so like that with soccer just hhow you say! Had it even when I was young; there were some teams that were chill and not that serious and would shoot the shit. But we had a few teams where we had other guys who were that serious too, and coaches that coached really effectively and motivated the team to further go and take those titles and work to win. We won champiionships and did cool things with those teams, and some of the fondest memroeis of my childhood were winning games and titles with those teams (scoring my first goal on one of those teams too, as I was a defender… one of the happiest moments of my fucking life back then hahaha)



I got into powerlifting, because you get to control that variable, no team no other people, just you. And you're your own competition in a way. They say that you’re not supposed to look at what other guys are lifting and in a way its true and what you try to adhere to.

If I compare what im lifting to nearly everyone in the gym im doing more weight than most. But then there are a few guys who take steroids who can bench more than me.

Then after that I have friends who are powerlifters like me and train the sport too. But all the guys that I train with are 200 lbs or up while I weigh 165. I can deadlift more than some of them but they will almost necessarily beat me out on absolute strength in the lifts. But relative bodyweight by wilks score you could say im stronger… however go to a powerlifting gym and you're weak again.

If I compare to world title holders then I am extremely weak (and seriously not sure if I can ever be a world champion).

ANYWAY point being that you’re your own wcompeition and my goal amongst other deep goals with my training, is to continue to build strength. Strenght of character and mind come with the physical strength and your body and mind are more closely tied than most people realize.

There’s that reason, and building virtues,, and mastering a skill… and a conquest/ego thing of just wanting to seehow far I can fucking take it all you know :) It’s the hardest thing I can think of that I can do at this point by far and that keeps me at it too.

Anyway have you considered something like, "Hey, I think you cute and I'd like to get to know you better, but I hate getting losing focus from my workout. Text me if you want to get together for XXXX."

Law of least effort. Takes only 1-2 minutes and if she is really interested like the IOIs suggest she will text you.

Haha have I tried it! I’ve gotten more than 20 numbers like this throughout the years (more during the first couple years of lifting) and they have nearly all if not all flaked. WIth good fundamnetals and girls that seemed really into me too…

I think the conclusion I arrived to (and Will the writer on Girlschase has said he found something similar) is that if you do want to pickup in the gym you have to spend a bit more time building rapport typically. Because it ends up like a social circle scenario, expecially for me who is a regular; most girls are gonna be regulars at the early times I train.

Maybe I could try this again because I am further along with game than I was a year or two ago; but I don’t know if it would result in different ends.

I think that there still could be ways I could work to do gym pickup and balance with training I’ll have to try some stuff out; if I chill a bit with my training sometime then I can make stuff work I bet…



Thanks for the thoughts Lotus, haha I enjoy the ideas and we probably have more things similar than we realize.

Good talking will keep at it man

Cheers

Hey Rage!


I love Your style so I am definitely going to follow Your journal :D
(at least now you know that people are reading it for sure, I had the same thoughts as You at the beginning... I was like: 'shall I say what's up guys or what's up journal haha)

Unfortunately I had not taken out enough time to read everything yet but will catch up soon.
Personally, I believe the idea on the triangle is brilliant but on the other hand I'd say: Don't let that frame Your mindsets.... With enough will, time management and discipline, I'm sure You can turn it into a square and do 3 things out of 4... You know.. the best always bend the rules ;)

Like You, I was a bit skeptical about sharing my personal life but to hell with it.. We're better off sharing anything and everything in exchange for mutual evolution and growth + it kinda makes You practice empathy, vulnerability and acceptance/non-judgement IMHO..


I'd love to see see more of Your posts and I wish You all the best in 2016. :D

Sexy greetings from Slovenia & UK,

Hey thanks 007!!

I've got to get back to writing in this journal, I'm with family for break for a few more days but will be able write more routinely once I get back to my regular life.

It's kinda crazy but cool and fulfilling somehow that people are enjoying the journal. I enjoy writing a lot but have had hesitation and stuff about putting my writing out there more. But that's ultimately the purpose of writing and it is rather useless if not shared or impacting at least a few people.

I have a lot of things to write and report and get in words in the coming year and will do my utmost to provide something entertaining and relevant.

...

On the triangle, I've thought about this almost everyday lately!

And you are exactly right I think there are ways to combat the triangle and better balance each do the areas and get some rewards from each tier. I will write a post on this a little bit because I think it is really important qnd relevant to all the guys on this board... And I am curious of what others might think on how the theory has developed more for me in the past month or so (have more to say about it , will post about it soon).

Thanks for reading man it means a lot to me!

Will try and keep it interesting

Cheers all the best

Hey Hey, Happy new year brother! ;D

Hope You had a fun time last night and started the year with positive vibes.

Exactly bro, if it impacts someone, that gives it 1000x more value although ultimately, I believe journals are about You and to clear and steer Your mind but the best way to go about it is to share as much as possible in the best detail and then get the best feedback on it from others + it also allows for a clearer reflection withing Yourself.

Yes, Yes, YESS!! I look forward to reading the article on the triangle :) And yeah, how good would You say You are when handling the triangle? And how much can You bend the rules so far?


Have a lovely break with Your family,

The Seducer’s Triangle of Fulfillment Pt. 2 (probably relevant to you)


I have been thinking incessantly about the triangle. My seducer’s triangle (see journal #2).

My friend and I have been discussing it a great deal.

My friend and I (the one I always write about) are really alike to a point where it is scary or you wouldn’t think you’d be able to have things in common that much with another person. But were both looking at this from a similar angle of how it applies to our own lives.

The Seducer’s Triangle


Anyway, the triangle: let’s get to it

You get to have a oneitis or unicorn girl or love at first sight girl, random girls /doing many girls, and your goals/mission/purpose.

Three tiers of a triangle and we as seducers will want all three

This is what composes the triangle .

I should also distinguish here that the triangle dilemma is only really faced by seducers.

Other people, regular people don’t have the pull to fuck many guys like we seducers have from really young ages. They also don’t strive crazily for goals and self-improvement; and don’t work or endeavor for the ideal relationship and what that should look like consist of or what they should do to work to build that.

Where I’m at On the Triangle


I realize that myself, and my friend as intj logical very mechanic type guys have prioritized goals over girls. Mission over girls.

This isn’t most guys and I’d argue that most guys on the boards aren’t here. That’s not good or bad or right or wrong.

That’s a value judgment: a difference in values and what you have made your pritoity and invested your energies into primarily.

In the sex transmutation article, Chase talks about how you put sex energy into your work or you can put that into banging women. Or of course you could put it into a relationship with a girl you really like (the unicorn or oneitis here; these three respectively composing the triangle model).

In regards to this, I have a notion that guys who have banged tons and tons of random girls will have done so at the expense almost of bigger notable achievements.

Blasphemous you say? How dare I say this… and yet it feels this way to me to some degree.



My friend is a mirror to myself in many ways and I asked a bunch of questions and he did too; we looked at this from many angles but couldn’t come up with definitive answers.

If we had to pick goals or girls what would we pick? Goals without a doubt.

My friend is an aspiring speaker and I have gotten into his line of work as well.

I am, you could say, an aspiring writer and he has gotten into my line of work as well.

We care about our goals more than anything else. Seriously everyone and everything and the whole world could go fuck itself if it came in the way of our work, our own friendship easily included.

For me, the greatest feeling I ever felt in the world was finishing my book. I told my friend that and couldn’t express how happy I felt and that it was like that, then he finished his first book 6 months or so later and felt the same himself.

Work as a mechanic matters to me or him more than just everything else.



Asked my friend a series of questions; after the first one I next asked “why is it that after one of us gets done banging a girl we will want to go watch a brian tracy video?”

This is a running joke we have, but what it means and it is truth based is that: after we get done having sex with a girl we orgasm and finish and then after want to instantly go and do self-development work. Go write or work on our presentations or go and read and learn something and work on our self-development.

We read voraciously, study endlessly incessantly are fucking obsessed with learning what we can and progressing growing and going further and further with our goals.

The other guys on this site are goal oriented BUT many of them I’d say more of them and I appear not to be one of these people, lean towards prioritizing girls to some degree more than goals. Goals sure: but fun with girls too in there.

They DON’T have to or need to get that strong urge to watch a Brian Tracy video directly after cumming into the random girl. That’s something that is unique to me and my friend shares this… likely from sharing the same personality disorders and from being mechanic I would guess…

When Are You Hedonistic and No Longer Skill Building

The next question I posed: how is banging a ton of girls not hedonistic? At what point is it not?

At what point am I or are you not building the skill up any longer and are instead just doing it for the fun of it and the hedonism of it?

Hedonists are ok with this, and many guys fit that role and character on the board here.

I personally try to not do stuff that is really hedonistic because I enjoy it a tiny bit but past that it takes away from ebbing productive and away from my goals and growth which I prioritize within as first. Also I see that I get a pleasure of hedonism and fun oddly enough from working towards my goals and from growing in the pursuit of them by myself or with like-minded people).

AGAIN will reemphasize this and briefly discuss this: no one here is right or wrong, good or bad.

People just have prioritized and valued different things. You express your values not in what you think or say or feel or think you would do or would like to do.

You express them only in your ACTIONS. And what you DO and DO CONSISTENTLY and tend to do more times than not.

Your actions make you who you are. They define you: what you do, defines you. And what you choose to do and select first and prioritize: where you place that value, defines you.

It’ll be what you value first over the others.

The Degree to Which I Prioritize Sleeping With Randoms

So is banging girls hedonistic or not? I realized something here that was true for my friend and I: I want to bang new random girls to the extent that I have to get off. To the extent that I have to sexually satiate myself.

Now that I am largely almost entirely off of porn. And am at a point I orgasm once where you reach that going batshit insane point after 4 or 5 days, that’s when I relieve myself once and then back to work and nothing for as many more days as go on (consistently so).

I want to sleep with girls to the point that I can satiate that need.

I want it like that, in the same way that I am hungry and want to eat. But past that I don’t care for pussy all that much, or for banging a lot of girls or for putting girls before work all that much.

It is an animalistic thing a reptilian thing. But as soon as that need is met and satisfied and good, then I am crazy for my goals and I have to get back to my mission and working to achieve the big things that I want to.

Once I nut that’s all that matters and nothing else fucking does.

Back to an earlier theory (next question posed): does banging and pursuing and spending a lot of time on random girls detract from your work. I would theorize that yeah quite a bit so, potentially.

I should sleep with girls to a point that I can meet bed and sleep with girls fairly consistently just to meet that need of getting off. However I see that it isn’t a high lofty goal at all: just a survival based thing like being able to cook my own food is or being able to drive and get around places.

I am pretty close to there, perhaps nearly so and once I am fully there at that level, then there isn’t a lot of point to it. The reptilian part that wants to fuck a lot of girls also wants to travel and sleep with girls around the world and all that is much smaller in me I now realize and comes after my goals of mission and legacy, contribution and achievement… and you get to be anything you want in life but not everything I believe…

Coming away from these questions, the solution that I seem to lean on becomes that the most practical thing for my work/goals/achievement would be to have a love at first sight or unicorn girlfriend who I could nut in time to time and other than that have her affect me positively and better my work and better my goals.

This would be the one girl in a fucking million who I could bust inside and then want to spend a little bit of time with after actually… and not have to immediately go to my Brian Tracy videos after sex.

The Ideal Girlfriend Tier of the Triangle

Let’s call this tier of the triangle for our discussion right now: ideal girlfriend.

Amongst the other questions: if I had the ideal girlfriend love at first sight like fucking made for me matching all my qualities growing in the relationship and all that other jazz, then would I choose that and give up the random girls all together?

It would seem practical to do so; and for the goal oriented guy who is most leaned toward the goals in the triangle it would make good sense and reason and be of immense benefit to do that. AT least under first impression/glance…

I come to this conclusion by asking: what did the greatest achievers in history do? I asked this; why are none of them players?

The players tend to be guys who are smarter than the average, are pretty bright guys, live cool lives, do cool things, BUT aren’t the elon musks and steve jobs of the world. They aren’t greatness aren’t elite level godly achievers.

Those elite level achievers follow a pattern it seems to show or correlate of get a wife/a partner that improves them, helps them and benefits them immensely; balances out there weak points and shortcomings and is a good complimentary opposite.

Further this ideal girlfriend/wife of theirs sees the potential in them even more than they do in themselves; she is their stable their constant their rock. And believes in him and his mission so incredibly much.

These guys tend to have something like this.

What about the Guys Who Want the Randoms First?

So the above works pretty well for the guy leaned most on goals in the triangle.

But what about for you hell bent players what about you guys?

The guys who have to be fucking their randoms and have their rotation and tons of girls to bang out there. Or even in relationships want to have mltrs and such.

There is personal growth in relationship and with random girls you don’t get that.

If you are keeping a random sub par girl as a repeat customer you also aren’t getting that and are getting something lacking.

Chase has said that he quit friends with benefits with random girls a long time ago because they influence you if you keep them around. If you bang them as a one night stand, they don’t affect or influence you; but if lkept around any longer than that, they do.

For the players who are leaned more towards the randoms tier of the triangle they are more hedonism based. But they have to do other shit too achieve their goals and stuff too.

For these guys usually it means getting just enough of goals, achievement, wealth, status, prestige/all that to be satisfied and be able to do the other random girls too.

How the Triangle and the 3 Types of Seducers Align!!!

I realize something !!!

The hedonist the romantic and the mechanic.

Each value one of the three tiers of the triangle the most !!!!!!!!!!!

The hedonist values the randoms the most

The romantic values the oneitis/unicorn relationship the most.

The mechanic values the goals/achievement contribution the most.

It is fucking brilliant and works !!!!



And I realize that there is no right or wrong answer

There is no solving the triangle because it can’t be solved. It isn’t a problem or equation to be solved or proved.

It lies outright and exclusively in what YOU value more and you express your values in how you work with the triangle.

You will necessarily not have all to full degree and won’t have that and can’t have that.

Instead you will have variations of different parts of the triangle and will pick some over others necessarily.

We as seducers will have parts perhaps of all three in us, because part of us wants all three. Wants the goals, wants the ideal woman, wants the randoms.

But you prioritize and pick between them and have value judgment and draw distinction between them.

Chase’s Solution to the Triangle

Just to look at this very superficially and not delve deeply into Chase’s personal life at all (sorry Chase will keep this brief and look at on a surface level), I recall Chase saying in interview that: when he is in a home country he will have a unicorn girlfriend that he is more or less exclusive too.

And when he is traveling he will sleep with randoms then.

And throughout it all of course, he is working on his goals.

So in this way he has: some ideal relationship, some randoms, and some goals.

Chase said in the comments of the 3 archetype article that he comes off as mechanic because of how he breaks things down as a writer on Girlschase, but that in real life he is in fact two parts romantic and one part mechanic.

Whatever the case; his ideal balance then I conjecture would look something effective in catering to that unique balance in what he values.

You Only Get to Have 2…

Anyway, I think that with solutions of the triangle eventually you get to have two and pick two and don’t really get to pick all three.

Funnily enough it makes sense to me now that this kidnap aligns with Chase said in the 3 lady killer article: you have one archetype as primary and another as secondary.

I am for sure that the mechanic is primary for myself.

And likely it seems that the hedonist is second after that and that would put romantic as last for me (for the little speck of emotion that is within me lol).

This would mean that the romantic isn’t really there within me and is smallest within me.

And has the least emphasis or focus.

Romantic aligning with the ideal girlfriend/unicorn girl. Perhaps this would be true and I think about this the least, in some respects it would seem.

But something that affected me is feeling a true love at first sight and knowing something like that is possible. It just changed my mind that some kind of relationship like that would be possible and opened my mind to it.

I'm a mechanic though of course. I think of the ideal girlfriend and a unicorn in the context of “wow what it would do for my work and the insights I would gain and her counsel and wisdom and how she would help my personal growth”.

Be my queen as I take what's mine and build my empire.

Someone I would learn from and gain a lot from and could help her grow too.

Not very romantic sounding huh? She's not gonnna be someone who watches sunsets with me and we do emotional bullshit and stuff.

And likely I’ll be having sex fairly often but not tons and tons and tons of it because I of course want to keep a good amount of my sex energy for my work and investing it into what I have to do the next morning.



Anyway what this signifies is that whichever archetype is your primary, you will still think of and want all three tiers of the triangle to varying degrees. Even the tier that aligns with the archetype that you don’t seem to have much of in you (you will still have a little bit of it and still have desire for that part of the triangle too).

Conclusions

Well at leastt I am spinning my head less about all this. I kept asking my questions and my friend and I were both like well fuck this is debatable and you really can’t fucking know and who knows what the answer would be?

But some conclusions I have come to, let’s list:

- The triangle is goals, random women, ideal relationship. Seducers will want all three. Will tend to at any point in life be able to have two and will want to have all three to some degree but will NEVER quite get to have the same high degree in all 3.

- The hedonist aligns with random women, romantic with ideal relationship, mechanic with goals and achievement first

- You will once again tend to want all three

- You do not really choose consciously what you prioritize or go for; you value certain tiers unconsciously more than others and express that through your actions

- What you express isn’t right or wrong, and there is no right answer or perfect solution to the triangle. It is unique to each individual and each seducer balances it in a unique way in his own life. How YOU balance and rest that is upon you , and it will look that way based on what you value and what you end up doing. (I think that even consciously you can go and do certain things but if unconsciously you don’t at a heart level want to balance it in that way… then you will eventually go and change it necessarily (1) or just continue on with your current balance but be miserable for the coming future as a result of that (2))

So this has been some emerging theories and ideas of mine on my seducer triangle model.

Hope you guys enjoy.

And hope you balance it in the way you best at essence wish to at any time (whatever that may be or appear to express as or look like for you in that moment in your life; likely your own balance of the three tiers shifts throughout various stages and year of your life).
