Introduction
We offer you this book as a means to see what the masters use,
so you can develop your own material. Having a repertoire of
good routines is the bread and butter of good “game.” They are
what help us to replicate success. They help us avoid awkward
silences and “mind blanks.” They teach us what women like
to talk about. They demonstrate the kinds of things naturally
charismatic people do and help us develop the social skills to
attract beautiful women when we encounter them: at bars,
parties, during the day, or wherever.

highlight the identity you want to create out of the best parts
of yourself and learn from those. Don’t be afraid to experiment.
These are not gospel. Tweak and change them to make your
own versions. The goal is for you to come up with completely
new routines yourself. All the best guys have unique routines

Openers

ROUTINES
Indirect Openers
An indirect opener is an opener that does not imply romantic
or sexual interest in a woman. Indirect openers are the most
versatile form of openers we have. They are easy to deliver,
don’t require an inordinate amount of skill, and can be tweaked
for just about any situation. They also avoid making women
uncomfortable and risking an initial loss of value because you
do not have to express overt sexual interest in the woman or
her group.
The actual content of the responses you get from women after
the opener is not important. You can disregard or integrate
it as you choose, just make sure that you are steering the
interaction in the direction of your choosing and not letting
them hijack the conversation.

“OK, check this out… my friend Nick got really drunk last
night and told his girlfriend that he loved her, then this
morning he took it back. Do you think he meant it?”
(They respond.)
“Here’s my take. When you’re drunk you say things that you
actually mean but are afraid to say, so I told her that he
probably meant it but just need more time to say it sober.”

girl tactic. Turning it around on the guy even when you’re

Set Up
This routine demonstrates pre–selection in that you have
friends trying to set you up with people and also that you have
standards and are picky about who you date. The concept of
pre-selection is covered in Chapter 3 of Magic Bullets.
(They respond.)
“OK, check this out, I came out with some friends of mine

G–String
This is longer than most indirect openers so be prepared to
talk and tell a good story when you use this one. Don’t use
it in a loud or high-energy environment. Assume familiarity
and just start talking as if you already know them when you
use it.
that the panties are his! And that he secretly likes to dress
up in women’s underwear. So I don’t know if his girlfriend
knew he was lying and just wanted to punish him, or if she
really is into this or not, but she said she thinks that’s really
kinky and turns her on and wants him to wear women’s
underwear around the house.
So he’s been doing this for a few weeks now and is absolutely
miserable!
So I think he should just come clean and let his girlfriend know
what happened. What do you guys think? How important is
trust in a relationship? Or do you think some things should
remain hidden, even if it means being miserable?”

Direct Openers
Direct openers explicitly express some degree of interest. They
can come in many different forms. The success of a direct
opener has less to do with the actual script of the opener and

ROUTINES
Screening Openers
Some openers present a woman with an implied challenge: is
she up to your standards? If she answers or is “compliant” to
your opener, you will be further ahead than if you’d simply used
an opinion opener. However, these openers carry a greater
risk of failure and require your tonality and body language to
be more polished. Here are some of our favorite examples:
• “I saw you from over there and wanted to see what you
were like. What are your three best qualities?”

ROUTINES
Humorous Openers
Humorous openers are neither direct nor indirect. You are
not pretending to have no interest in her, but you are not
hitting on her either. If you are naturally funny, use these
openers frequently. If you are not, check out our Further
Resources (Chapter 10). You can also learn the right delivery
style through trial and error.
Rich Girl
This opener is good for loud clubs and bars, and for environments
where you don’t want to come across too seriously.

It implies that you are not hitting on the women you are
talking to while simultaneously acting as a demonstration of
value if you make them laugh. Only use this opener if the
women are smiling and have a fun vibe.
This is risky, but can be effective. And it’s pretty good for just
entertaining yourself if you are sick of opinion openers.
Secretary Opener
“So here’s the thing. I’ve been fucking my secretary for the
past couple months and she wants a raise. (Pause) Now, I
don’t mind that, I’m the one who taught her that you have to
give head to get ahead, but she wants her raise now, and her
performance review isn’t for another 4 months. What do I do?
How long should she have to put out before she gets a raise?”

And so on.
Eventually they will get that your story is a joke. This is when
you congratulate them on keeping up with you and having a
sense of humor. Then you can say your secretary is really a fat
40 year old man called Bubba. Often, they’ll ask what you do;
if they do, you’re already in the Attraction phase (Chapter 4).

Cold Reads
A cold read is an observation about someone’s personality
based on truisms about human nature or on something you
observe about them. The more often you do this, the better
and more accurate you will get. Learn to improvise from the
ensuing banter and then transition into conventional Attraction
routines (Chapter 4) to move the interaction forward.
“Ah, so you’re the good one and you’re the bad one.”

Routines are one tool that you can use to convey these
characteristics. Sometimes this will be through what you say.
For example, you can tell a story about something that happened
to you that subtly communicates that you have status. We
cover this in the Bonus Chapter on Storytelling (Chapter 9).
Sometimes it will be through how you say it. Being able to
capture a group’s attention and have it focused on you (in
a positive way) demonstrates social skills and strong social
intuition. Humor also plays a big role, and you’ll see that many
of the routines in this chapter are designed to be humorous.
Some routines also give you a chance to demonstrate your

she’ll almost always give an amazing hug, for which you can

Mock Indignance
In this routine, you pretend to get mad at her and act angrier
that you really are. You take something that a woman says
that can be misinterpreted and over-react to it on purpose. For
example, if she says that she doesn’t like a song that’s playing:

Director Routine
Use the Director Routine on a group so they end up seeking
your approval and following your lead. This builds attraction.
To deliver this kind of routine, you should be high-energy.
Play the role of director as you give each person a scene to
act out. For example:
³+H\ZDQWWRSOD\WKHGLUHFWRUJDPH"<RX¶UHWKHDFWUHVVDQG
I’m the director. Here we go. OK, here’s your motivation –
you are at your grandmother’s, you just broke up with your
boyfriend, you are eating oatmeal, you are very upset, your
grandmother doesn’t care and she’s asking you to take out
the trash, and go!”

Stripper Name
This is a fantastic routine to use after exchanging names with
a woman. It also gives you an opportunity for “call-back
humor,” which is very useful if you plan to get her phone
number and call her later. When you call and refer to her
by her “boy name” or “stripper name,” she should laugh and
return to the same emotional state as when you two met and
had fun together. You should also call her by one of these
names for the rest of the night.

This is a great follow-up to the Eye Accessing Cues Transition
routine (Chapter 3) and is similar in style. It’s great because
it creates a win/win situation. If you get it right, you’ve
displayed intuitiveness. If you get it wrong, you still have
the opportunity to teach her something interesting and have
learned something about her.

“The basic idea is that when a person looks to the right they
are constructing an idea and when they look to the left they
are recalling something that has actually happened. Since
a lie is essentially a mental construction, people will often
access that part of the brain when trying to come up with a
lie and will look to the right. Interesting, huh?”
You can also move right into the Eye Accessing Cues Transition
routine (Chapter 3) from earlier and/or proceed to use

This routine is good anywhere in the Attraction phase, but is
especially useful toward the end, since it changes the tone of
your conversation to you “screening” her which is what you’ll
be doing more in the 4XDOL¿FDWLRQSKDVe (Chapter 5). Still,
this routine is light and should not come across seriously. It
lets her know that you are screening her for intelligence and
that you have standards. If she fails, just make light of it,
but don’t go overboard.

Role-playing gets women out of the “here and now.” Most men
don’t do this, and limit themselves to conversations about the
immediate environment or each other. With role-playing, you
are limited only by your imagination. This also allows a woman
to take on a role and say or do things that she might otherwise
resist. A good role-play is like your own mini Halloween.

3) If she does cooperate, she will hold her hand out to match

is another compliance test.
4) If she complies, pull her toward you, spin her around and

stimulating her with Attraction material.

provides a great overview of different approaches to build
comfort. If you’re not consistently moving beautiful women
from showing initial signs of attraction (laughing, asking you
questions, etc.) to a physical relationship, the odds are that
you biggest improvement opportunities come in the Comfort
phase. The best training for this comes from either a full
bootcamp, which is heavy on Attraction and Comfort drills
and live practice in restaurants, bars, and clubs, or from the
innovative new one-day Breakthrough Comfort seminars.
Breakthrough Comfort is a rapid form of comfort-building

(Then move in. And do exactly what you said to do. There
is an art to this. Move close, but do not make her think you

If you get any resistance from her, do not force the issue.

Once you do almost kiss her, you can safely move in for another
one by just saying you want it.
After you do this about four times, a real kiss will be natural;
many times, she’ll even bring it up.

Going for the kiss can be very simple. If your intuition is

if, as is usually the case, she’s not alone) and that you’re not
just another boring guy hitting on a pretty woman. Even if
you meet someone in the daytime, when she’s alone and on
her way somewhere, the same principles apply.
Pick a type of opener that best suits your personality and the

person, without seeming like you are trying too hard to do
so.

the results and adjust accordingly. Re-use the ones the work
well. Eventually you will have a whole repertoire of jokes
that you know work well through trial and error. You will also
begin to see a pattern in terms of what “style” of humor suits
you; dry vs. bombastic, cocky vs. self deprecating, and so
on. Humor is often learned in a non–logical, instinctual way.
You should also pay attention to other funny people and learn
from their choice of conversational content and mannerisms.
Teasing
Teasing can create attraction because you appear not to be
pursuing a woman while simultaneously doing things to attract
her. Make sure you don’t overdo it. Err on the side of having
her be in on the joke rather than being insulting or making her
feel uncomfortable.

phases of the Emotional Progression Model. The key emotions
a woman should feel during this phase include:
Connection
Trust
Intimacy
Connection
Especially early in the Comfort phase, your routines should
be primarily focused on building a connection. You are still
getting to know one another. The goal is to do this on a deeper
emotional level and share the important details about your
lives without the conversation becoming stale or mechanical
(i.e. the “job interview” conversation, with question after
question). The Truth Game in Chapter 5 is a great tool for
doing this, but anything that gets her to reveal intimate
facts and feelings so that you can reciprocate is good. Or,
conversely, you can tell a story in order to cue her to reveal
something about herself as well. Also, look for commonalities
(shared interests, experiences, etc.) as these help create a
sense of connection.
©2007 www.LoveSystems.com
161
ROUTINES
Trust
The next part of the Comfort phase is building trust and
feeling that there is a special connection between you and
her. Acknowledge that you both feel an unusually tight bond
and that she has somehow captured your attention. This can
help her trust you and show that you are not just another
guy looking for sex. You can also (judiciously) demonstrate
vulnerability - there are some great examples of this in the
Comfort chapter (Chapter 6) - to show that you trust her with
your feelings. Make sure that you do this without jeopardizing
the image she should have of you by now as a high-value
FRQ¿GHQWPDQ
Intimacy
Toward the end of the Comfort phase, you need to put greater
emphasis on having her feel open to increased intimacy,
and, ultimately, sex. You’ve hopefully been increasing the
intensity of your touching and have already kissed her. Check
the physical touching routines and kiss routines (Chapter 5)
if you’re having trouble making this happen “naturally.” Your
intimacy routines should become more sexual without making
her feel uncomfortable or risking the sense of connection and
trust that you’ve built.

Seduction
As noted in Chapter 7, the Seduction phase of the Emotional
Progression Model does not necessary lend itself to a large
number of routines. Success in the Seduction phase is based
primarily on an understanding of female psychology and
avoiding “state breaks,” in which a woman logically confronts
the idea that she is going to have sex with someone new for

able to provide enough emotional and/or physical stimulation
that she is able to “turn off” the logical side of her brain. If
you can’t do this, she probably won’t enjoy the sex very much
anyway, so this actually makes sense on a few different levels.
The avoid-blur-distract model for dealing with state breaks is
covered in Chapter 10 (Seduction) of Magic Bullets.

In theory, the hook line should be related to the story you are
going to tell. But it’s better to have an interesting hook line
that isn’t completely related to the rest of the story than it is
to have a perfectly on–message hook line that doesn’t capture
your listener’s attention.
You can use the hook line as “bait,” which is somewhat similar
to using open threads (see below). Consider the following
dialogue between two people who already know each other:

SUDFWLFLQJ\RXUVWRULHVOLYHLQJURXSDIWHUJURXSDQGUH¿QLQJ
them that way. It’s more helpful to think in terms of content
themes and the emotional impact you are trying to create
than it is to memorize stories word for word. But try both
approaches and see what works best for you.
Embedded information
Embedding means using a story that appears to be about one
subject to subtly tell listeners about something else. Usually
the “something else” will be positive characteristics about
yourself that you don’t want to bring up directly because you
don’t want to come across as bragging or trying too hard to
impress her.

not being afraid of heights is not interesting. She’ll know
you only told the story to make yourself sound good,
which actually conveys low social intuition.]

Open Threads:
Another good advanced tactic is to leave open threads for
your audience to ask about, to spur further conversation or to
advance the story. For example, in the mushroom story, the
phrase “I did a show there last week” is an open thread. She
may ask you what you do for a living, or what kind of show
you did in New York. If you are a performing artist, you can
talk about this without appearing to be bragging as long as it
is done in response to a direct question. For the rest of us, the
only “shows” we are likely to actually do are trade shows. In
that case, replace the reference to “shows” to something else.
Maybe you were at a charity event or seeing your favorite
band. Maybe your company sent you on an emergency trip or
you were closing a deal or meeting with investors. Something
relevant to you.

Now let’s play with this story to help a woman become more
actively engaged in it. The easiest way to do this is to ask her
questions about elements of your story that she might be able
to relate to. For example:

Me: “My mom’s cat was really old and really big. He was
probably the only cat ever born without a sense of

memories are of him walking along the edge of

It scared me to death. It probably only happened
once or twice, but in my memories it felt like it was
happening all the time. In pre–school we all had to
draw pictures of things we were afraid of. What were
you afraid of when you were little?”

right?” You wait for the “yes” answer and then continue
with the rest of the story.
Conclusion:
A good story should end on a high note that brings the action
to a conclusion. It doesn’t have to be a humorous punch line
that leaves everyone rolling around in laughter, but it does
have to wrap up the story and communicate that it is over.
What you absolutely don’t want is for someone to react to
your story with an expectant pause and then say “so then
what happened?”

you learned from the experience. You don’t have to actually
say “and what I realized from this was…” although it’s not bad
if you do. In Comfort it might be a real lesson or insight. In
Attraction it more likely should be something humorous.

Delivery:
A story can take any length of time, from as little as 30 seconds
to as long as 30 minutes, or even longer in the right context.
0DNH\RXUVWRU\OHQJWK¿WWKHVLWXDWLRQ,QDORXGQLJKWFOXE
no one is going to listen to you for more than a minute or two
right after meeting you, so keep your stories short. Later
on, when you’re in the Comfort phase and maybe sitting in a
quieter area, longer stories may be more appropriate. Learn
to insert and remove material from your stories depending on
the situation. Many of my best stories have a “short version”
and a “long version.” This is another reason why you should
focus on the general outline of your stories as opposed to
memorizing them word for word.
Make sure you get everyone’s full attention before you begin.
If you don’t have the group’s attention, either command it
by being louder or stop talking until they are focused on you.
If you lose someone’s attention while you are telling them a
story, just stop and look at them until they focus. Or you can
playfully say: “Hey, show’s over here.”
The biggest mistake I see most men make is that they are not
“living the story.” This is another reason why it’s important that
your stories are actually related to your personal experiences.
For example, if you are telling a story about a party at your
brother’s house, you should be able to mentally immerse
yourself in the atmosphere of the party. You should be able
to see, smell, feel, hear, and taste everything that you were
sensing at that moment.
