OAP issue

[Con]

THANK YOU for the OAP. I get newsletters from a bunch of so-called experts out there, and most are just sales. You actually deliver the goods! Anyway, I just finished your last one (A3) and it's like a light bulb went off. THAT was the flaw in my game!! I never qualified! I've gone out twice since then, and where I used to get a phone number or two, I've had 3 makeouts and one girl come back to my apartment (my roommate was home and he messed it up for me, but that's another story . . . maybe a future OAP can talk about how to stop your friends from messing your game). I love this!

You guys are the greatest! I even have the Handbook, and I still look forward to the OAP. Anyway, check it out -- this new girl on my floor was a total hottie and we were all talking about her for days before I was like, whatever, I've been reading Mystery Method stuff all day, I KNOW how this works. Guess what? This jerk guy was all over her, but for once, he didn't get what he wanted. I did! I used your alpha-male-other-guy strategy from the Handbook, and all of a sudden she was into me and thought he was creepy! I wonder how that happened . . . smirk. We're going out again tomorrow and I'm psyched!

The above are stories in OAP issue 5 and 6. They both mention AMOGs. I also find a lot of posts on AMOGs and people asking for help on how to deal with this issue. It would be a great OAP issue I think because the advice given are only short answers. I understand of course that the better your game, the easier it is to not even care about AMOGs. But until you get to a certain point it is a major issue for everyone. How did you handle this when you started becoming PUAs? Did it also bother you a lot? Is there something helpful that OAP receivers should know?
I have checked TDs posts. When the AMOG isnt someone you see for once in a bar, but someone you deal with everyday? What if he realises you are trying to get better with girls and deliberately acts strange to insult you and look better? Any thoughts on the above would be great.
Thanks

im not a master but i think you answered part of it yourself get better.
if hes a friend you can talk to him but basically what it hes trying to do is shake your frame if your not bothered girls will see that. theres a diffrence between alpha and being a total dick . i dont belive girls like dicks alpha yes dicks no.
if you can handle social pressure girls will see it and so will he.
hes feeding of the fact that it effects you .but thats only my opinion

Ok, from my experience, the more another guy tries to "show you up", the more you need to have more wits about you. Meaning, if he says something that makes you feel inferior while around women, keep that strong frame of mind, have a quick comeback, and go about your business as if it never phased you.
Women will pick up on this and think, "wow that other guy was a total dick to do that." Then you just say, "I guess he couldn't help it, maybe he's jealous." When she says why, make up something like, "he can't just walk up to any girl and strike up a conversation." Putty in your hands after that.

It would be great to have an issue on AMOGs.
Specially if they are you're friends. You don't wanna totally own them, cuz as soon as you do, you DLV yourself by beign with them, but you DEFINITELY don't wanna let them control the interaction.
Is there somewhere in beetween, you know... to shut him up, but at the same time don't DLV yourself for beign with him?
Any help will be much appreciated.

I have always had a tricky time with AMOGs who happen to be freinds, I try my best to calibrated a neturlzation on them. One of my personal favs is looking at them with the straightest face I can muster, and just say, "Dude, that was lame."

If he's your friend, set him down and talk with him. I am by no means a PUA yet, but I hav been to known to "shoot somebody down" if you will without DLV. A witty come back or just ignoring the person helps, but if he's your friend, and knows you're diggin' this girl, just holla at ya boy and try to keep it real. It's worked for me if it's worth anything.

I've got a friend we (everyone who knows him) calls bird dog.
He comes in aggressive and either takes the girl or scares her off. We've talked to him and now I`just don't use him as a wing.
Bottom line, friends should not be against you. If they don't want to play nice don't play with them any more.
Would be cool to see what the alpha PUA's have to say bout this
