RE: What do you tell your family about game?
I don't.
It's been covered on the forum. Family and friends won't understand. That's why it's called the red pill. Or put another way:
"To those who have had the experience, no explanation is necessary. To those who have not, no explanation is possible."
If anyone asks, I just say, "Things are going well." and change the subject.

RE: What do you tell your family about game?
This same topic has come up 2 or 3 times, and I can't understand why you would need to talk about this with your family? "I dont have a girlfriend because Im boning three girls" is not a sentence you really need to speak to your sister. Does your sister tell you how many guys dicks she sucked this month?
Just tell your sister what you have been up to. Working, going to the gym, going to the bar, whatever. If she specifically asked you about girls, you could say "No, I don't have a girlfriend. I'm seeing a couple girls, but nothing serious." and leave it at that.
It might just be me, but I really don't think you need to discuss game with your family. Maybe it's because I come from an old school biker family so my mom/sister know exactly how I am and see my lifestyle as a "mans" lifestyle. Drinking, fighting and chasing girls is what men do in my family. If I didn't do these things, they would think I was weird.

I should have searched before posting, and no I wouldnt have used that phrasing, I was paraphrasing the intent to be honest about my lifestyle. And I would prefer it if you didnt mention my sister sucking dick.
I get that no experience equals no understanding, but for me getting into game represents a fairly big divergence from normal modes of life that you cant discuss with your family, old friends, anyone you think of as being close.

If its implicit in your family than thats something different, but if it isnt, but its not something you are ashamed of, why wouldnt you be honest about the fact that you have multiple relationships or whatever it is that youre doing. Its because its not socially acceptable conversation, right?
I dont know, Im not sure where Im going with this, but I do think that once you get into game it creates a divide between you and everyone else that isnt doing something similar.

No one told you to be dishonest. There is a big difference between saying "I'm seeing some people, but nothing serious." and "I'm a player and I am fucking three different girls at the moment". Both are honest, but why would you need to elaborate more than that? That is really all you need to say, and leave it at that. Why do you feel the need to discuss it further?
Like I said, unless your sister (who you are way too sensitive about) is going into depth about her sexual exploits, why would you need to go in depth about yours?

RE: What do you tell your family about game?
NEVER EVER TELL NOBODY IN YOUR LIFE ABOUT PICKUP
just STFU and spare yourself drama, stupid discussions, objections, endless questions and overall pain in the ass. resist temptation at all cost. no matter how cool you will describe and how self actualized you will come across, people will just associate that with 'the game', weird nerds, creepy fucks, etc.. fuck this alpha/beta shit. yeah, you will feel alpha.. BUT ONLY YOU. the rest of your world will label you as womanizer and ridicule you like you can't understand. this pickup stuff is like talking to christians/catholics about zeitgeist's "religion as the greater story ever told" topic.
treat it like fight club.. the first rule of fight club is.. (the same as the second)
but if you really need to explain what you do to your family or friends then use lame politically correct excuses that they can wrap their head around like..
- i'm looking for love
- i can't fall in love so i'm searching more
- i want to find GF what's wrong with that?
- i want to find myself

Yeah fair enough, it was a badly worded question, and I dont want to be explicit with any of my family.

Well DUH
Look all Im saying is that this is quite a big thing right, it can take over your life and then the people from before, family but actually I guess more importantly friends, are excluded from big aspects of what you are doing, which is a shame and something Ive only just realised but I guess thats true of any big changes you make to your life. Youre obviously both right just divide what you talk about with different people.

RE: What do you tell your family about game?
Y'all are crazy.
The most liked person in the history of this forum had mega bank.
Trick is for people to like you no matter how successful you are.
Shit I just pulled a kid off this forum and in 3 meetings went from
Day 1: awkward day Convo
Day 2: Dancing and showing how to be the man of a city
Day 3: tons of numbers and almost having sex in the club itself!
You think he is going to throw me under the bus any time soon or hope that I fail? No. I am making him happier with his life. You should do the same.
If you make everyone around you better you will never have haters.
Even so I still gave him a fake name ha!

RE: What do you tell your family about game?
It's pointless. My mom asked me yesterday why I want to travel so much. She said you should get married, have kids and then go traveling. I can't think of a worse thing.
My dad tells me to get married asap.
My sister thinks I'm a whore and disgusting, but she doesn't hold it against me. I'm honest with her since I want her to know what some guys are like. I cringe at some of the things the guys she dates do for her (flowers, multiple high priced dates, etc.) Ironically she is still willing to set me up with her friends, but they are all prudes and given the "image" they all care about I'd never get a bang.
My brother gets it a bit. But he doesn't fully embrace it.
My uncle gets it. He was a natural when younger. Different girls every night, living it up, girls paying for him, etc. Gave into the pressure, I remember his mom and family yelling at him to get married and give it up. He finally caved, and is outrageously unhappy, almost got divorced and just tells me all about his banging stories. I feel for him.
One of my clients gets it. Knows I love to bang and travel. His niece is smoking hot, I'd love to do something about it but not sure how to go about it. Met her a few times at social events, everyone there said they noticed she was into me. Still, dangerous territory because of the relationship to my client. Last I heard she was dating some guy with a Bentley. Even if I did go after her and got her, I couldn't just pump and dump for the reasons stated. Not that I'd want to, given her hotness.
My friends, some get it some don't. I've noticed the ones that do best with girls are either 1) very bold, or 2) smooth talkers. Commonality is high sense of style. Those that get it never are happy when they LTR it up. They always come back. Except one, who married way up with a very stand out blonde girl. He still games girls then stops short of any physical contact. I actually strategize my dates/bangs/plans with him almost with every girl.

My family knows.
Yep you read that right. Everyone knows, they know every girl they see is just going to leave soon. They know it is EXTREMELY unlikely that they'll ever see grand kids from me.
The best part? They encourage it.
Why? Because that's "GAME" convince anyone and everyone of your beliefs. That's "game".
The only people you need to lie to are people who have iron clad beliefs against it. IE: super pussies, for my profession... clearly work is the only place where i lie.
But what do i know i am just a 20's something "kid".
As always, if people SEE success over and over and over and over they can't help but give up... Now you've won.
West has a point. My family knows as well. But as I said, it's normal for me. I've always been like this. I didn't "find" game and start going after girls, I always had girls.
I think it is good if your family knows, but don't let them know by TELLING them. Let them know by SHOWING them. I.E., just live your life and they will see what's up eventually. If you start talking about game with them, and you haven't always been like this normally, they will just think you are weird.
Be cool, bang chicks, and your family will not need to ask you whats up, they will all see what's up.
