Alek's M.O.

for Meeting Women

During COVID – Plans B and C
By Alek Rolstad

COVID-19 has brought challenges, but there’s always a way to

flourish in the dating game. These backup plans will help you keep
both of your heads happy.

Last week I detailed my overall dating game plan during the

pandemic. I shared how and where I approach girls, and what I do
beyond that to get them in bed.

Sadly, as many of you know, pandemic policies differ from place to

place. My game plan may not fit where you live. Nevertheless, I
hope you can get something out of my plan or find some tweaks to
make it work for you.

Perhaps you can at least draw some inspiration from my game plan
to create your own. I did my best to share my thought process and
overall method to create my game plan. Feel free to take that and
create a plan that best suits you.

Currently, we are in a phase where the social world has turned

upside down. The rules of the game have changed, and we need
to calibrate to that. Nothing is set in stone, nor is my game plan.
It’s a time to experiment and rediscover our game (or discover it, if
you are new to this). Of course, the situation is sad, but it opens up
opportunities to rediscover good pickup strategies you may have
neglected until now. I will not say we live in exciting times; that
would be an exaggeration. But overall, there is an exciting element
to it. This is what you should embrace; nay, it's something you must
embrace.

Virtu and Fortuna

Although I have a solid setup (which I presented last week), I realize
the situation is continually changing. Circumstances today may not
be the same tomorrow: cafés, terraces, and even parks may close.
What happens tomorrow is beyond my knowledge.

If you remember the wise words I shared last week from Machiavelli,
virtue (Virtu) is about how one can anticipate the unknown and deal
with fortune (Fortuna), whether good or bad, but mostly bad. I have
kept this lesson in the back of my head throughout this crisis. I knew
bad times were coming and had no choice but to prepare my mind
for the worst.

There are multiple benefits with this mindset, especially in times like
this. The first positive element is that there is something stoic about
it. Once you are MENTALLY prepared for the worst, if the worst-
case scenario occurs, it will not come as a shock. You knew it
was coming, you’ve allowed yourself to accept that this could
happen. I've accepted it, at least as much as one could.

It’s a good way to become cool-headed and grounded. Because

once a change happens, even a bad one, you don’t get carried away
by the stress. Instead, you can focus your energy on dealing with
the situation.

And trust me, weird and unfortunate situations arise in the

seduction field all the time. We call them wildcards, the
unexpected. And with COVID-19, we experience wildcards on a
macro level! Things are prone to change anytime.

A side benefit of being cool-headed, knowing what you are

doing, and not panicking or freaking out when unfortunate
circumstances hit you, is that it is very attractive to women.
This behavior displays confidence, groundedness, mental stability,
and leadership. Good leaders keep their heads cool.

The better you deal with SNAFU, the further you'll be from FUBAR.

Becoming at ease with the possibility of unfortunate things

happening allows you to start anticipating so you can make backup
plans. These plans come to fruition if things do not go the way you
hoped.

And when you know you are prepared, you have a positive feedback
loop:

You feel more at ease because you know you are ready for what
may come. This can help you relax more in stressful times.

When bad events occur, you know you have practical plans to
save the situation. As a result of having backup plans, you will
feel more mentally comfortable for what may happen.

Of course, you can never prepare yourself fully, since you cannot
predict the future. But having plans will always help. Often all that is
needed are a few tweaks with your B and C plans, and you are good.
Remember that we usually plan for the worst possible outcome,
which statistically is not necessarily prone to happen. The situation
may get worse, but not as bad as you anticipated.

This is why I’m dedicating the rest of this post to share my current
plan B and C. Plan A was covered last week.

My Plan B: Social Circle

If parks, bars, and terraces close down, I could probably still rely on
social circles. But unless you already have a huge social circle, you
may not get far. This is my case. In my early days, I was into social
circles when I was living in my home country. But my interest quickly
disappeared once I got good at club game. I could just go to a club
and find a girl instead of working on my social circle, which can be
quite a bit of work. It is usually only recommended for those who
ENJOY having and working a huge social circle and getting laid
passively from it. It did not help that I started traveling and living in
different countries. I would make a social circle only to dump it
once I left the country. As you can tell, my general motivation for
networking, building, and maintaining a large social circle was not
strong.

Sadly, meeting girls through cold approach, especially in clubs and

bars is limited now, and my options for meeting girls in public
spaces like parks, or terraces could disappear at any time. I will
likely have to rely on online dating (I really dislike this; the quality of
women is low, it’s not as efficient as many guys believe; see my
recent posts). Or I can go the social circle route. Social circles can
become useful for long-term key contacts and also give access to
cool parties. These can often be the source of very hot girls.

So social circle it is.

But I don’t currently have one. I just moved to a new country last
September, and I haven’t had the time to build myself up. So what
do I do?

This is where my plan B comes in. What does this involve?

Take the numbers of everyone I meet and ping them. Those

who respond, I will chat with and eventually set something up.
This includes cool dudes and girls who are hot but may not be
into me and may not sexually be my type.

Avoid making risky moves with girls I seduce. I choose to go

indirect (not show sexual intent or interest until she shows me
some). My display of interest will always be proportional to
hers). I do this if the girl seems not likely to end up in bed with
me. (Do not get me wrong, I usually like turning “reds” into
“greens.”) I can at least get her number, befriend her, and
 meet her female friends, perhaps one who is more into me or
my type. Anyone good at social circles knows how crucial it is
to have hot girls in their contact list.

Another benefit of being indirect in your approach to pickup and

seduction: it allows you to be very discreet. This is critical if others
are around. There are numerous benefits to this, especially when
her friends are nearby:

If you mess things up (a public rejection), you will lose all

chances of eventually hanging out with her friends (and
remember, you should be taking their contacts).

By being indirect and low-key, you can either go for her friends
without losing face (or looking weird) or hang with her friends
and perhaps meet more girls.

If you want to add some juice, occasionally invite people you meet
to social gatherings. Try dinners at your place, small parties, or
even bigger parties (be aware that the cops may shut down large
gatherings in the name of COVID-19). This will make those people
love you and hopefully increase the chances of inviting you to their
events (and social circle gatherings, as parties are exploding these
days).

Another suggestion: merge people from multiple groups you’ve met.

It frames you as a key connector and gives you tons of instant
social value, which can benefit you later.

You can also ask those you have met to bring other cool people
over. This can help you meet new girls and expand your social circle
further.
The idea is to allow things to snowball.

Don’t have your own place or a big flat? No worries. Small parties
can be as cool as big ones. Otherwise, organize a gathering in a
public space like a park. There are no excuses, really.

My Plan C: F-buddies
What if we experience more severe shutdowns? What if you cannot
meet up with multiple people, shutting out the possibility to rely on
your social circle?

If this happens, you can always have a few F-buddies to call over
once in a while. Now, this is not a plan C per se, as it can be a great
addition to your plan B. An expanding social circle and an expanding
harem seems like a good idea if you ask me.

I make sure to convert most if not all girls I meet these days into F-
buddies. How do you do that?
 Make sure the seduction is as smooth as possible

Give her the sex of a lifetime

Build rapport and truly get to know her post-sex, as you are
both releasing endorphins while cuddling

Grab her number and proceed as usual

So, if I cannot rely on social circles any longer, I always have a few F-
buddies to have fun with.

But what if a FULL lockdown hits your area? What if you find
yourself in the type of lockdown where you are not allowed to meet
anyone? Well, then there is not much you can do. I have written a
post on dealing with those situations and I recommend you check
it out. The good news is that full lockdowns typically don’t last long
(a few weeks to a few months, usually a maximum of three months).

Recap
Today I began by sharing some key mindsets that relate to the rest
of the post: the stoic and Machiavellian approach of preparing for
the worst, so you can anticipate.

This allows you to:

Feel more relaxed and confident now

Feel better about the future if the situation gets worse

Have plans in place for when things go south

After that, I shared my plan B and C:

Focus on building a social circle through cold approaches (in

 light of my current M.O., see my previous post)

Build a harem with the girls I meet

That’s it for today. I hope you enjoyed this post.

Stay calm, anticipate, and be prepared.

Be a Stoic!

Best,

Alek
