Update of my travel dating experiences, a lot happended in the last month.
I mostly did online dating this month. The IA pictures are a game changer! With my prompting skills, I managed to get dating pics that look real and look like the real me, but 9+ attractiveness on Photofeeler. In the future, every guy who's serious about online dating needs to learn prompting, you have maybe 6 months or so before mainstream media catches up with how good stable diffusion is at generating dating pics and everyone does it, or it gets banned.
I did a bit of cold approach on top of it, but sadly not 10/week as I said I would. More like 5 approaches a week on average.
Balkan country capital city
People who say pickup in eastern Europe is easy are straight up liars. Cold approach is hell, a lot of bad reactions, girls are standoffish and dating apps are almost dead. Even worse, nightlife is not as good as expected. The bars are either super small venues with no potential, or you have to book in advance and pay just to enter a normal bar. It's just terrible all around for travelers. Girls are hot, that's true, but most of the dating happens through social circle for locals. As a result, I was only able to get date with expats and russian immigrants here.
Russian date #1
The girl was short, a bit chubby but still attractive. We met at one of those small bars with like 6 seats in front of the counter and that's it. The atmosphere was pretty good, the date was going well... Until the bartender started to hit on the girl in Russian. Instant game over, the vibe was dead. I still tried to pull after the bar closed, but predictably failed.
Russian date #2
Gorgeous girl with black hair, grey eyes and glasses. We met in a coffee shop, the vibe was really good. Logistics not so much, I planned to take the train later this day and she was also leaving town in a few hours to go back to Russia. Still tried to invite her home, but messed up and made my intentions a bit too clear, which made her uncomfortable. I later learnt she was on pills and not in a good mindset to date, so this date was probably doomed from the start even if logistics were better.
Russian date #3
This one happened in another city that I went to visit over a weekend (in the same Balkan country). The girl was gorgeous, with a great body and long brunette hair. But she was also standoffish and didn't give me anything, she met me out of curiosity but resisted every game attempt, no matter how small. We had brunch and a few shots at a local bar, textbook platonic date.
So as you can tell Russian girls are not my cup of tea, they're either crazy, rude, cold or a combination of those. It's like playing the game on super hard mode. I've had some success with a Russian girl before in my home country, she gave me a handjob at my place, but she was also weird and sent me walls of text afterwards, not worth it at all.
Date #4 (British girl)
At this point, I was tired of of dates that go nowhere, so I got more agressive and led this one directly to my place. She objected that we were supposed to go grab a coffee, but I was tired and didn't want to go out, so I told her she could leave if she wanted but I'm staying here. She hesitated a bit, and then invited me to her place to get a glass of wine and play games on my Switch, which I agreed to. After finishing the bottle, a massage, a lot of LMR and a game of Smash Bros, we ended up having sex on her couch. I was half drunk and distracted by the cartoon she put as background noise, so the sex was terrible but it was still a fun night.
Prostitution Central aka Dubai
Flight rates were cheaper through the Emirates, so I decided I might as well spend a few days in Dubai to see the famous slaver city for myself. 90% of girls on Tinder there are either whores who send you their hourly rates on whatsapp after a few messages, or whores who ask you for gifts in exchange for sex/dates. It was less lopsided on Bumble with a 50/50 ratio of normal girls to whores, so I mostly used that and focused on girls who were not asking for money.
Date #1 (Cute Filipina instagramer)
We were supposed to meet close to my place, but I told her in the anti-flake text that I was visiting a popular mall, which was closer to her place. So she asked if we could meet there and I had no objections ready so we went for worse logistics.
We had a drink and walked around the mall, then I invited her home to get snacks and wine, which she agreed to. Now, my place was a room in a shared flat, with like 10 other rooms, so it was not very intimate. On top of that, she gave me a lot of LMR at every step. I managed to invite her inside my room so I did maybe 90% of the work, but we were both unnerved by the lack of privacy so I couldn't seal the deal.
I invited her for a walk outside where we talked about dating, expectations etc and went for a cocktail. The vibe was really good, we stayed there until around 2am, but there was no real opportunity to pull again (seduction moving backwards).
There was just one problem : I messed up the currency conversion in my head and the bill ended up being higher than what I had on my bank account at the moment. So the girl had to use the cash she brought for her taxi. It was 2am, she was completely drunk, insisting that she could go home with not enough money for the taxi. In the end, we had to walk back home for 45 minutes so I could get my second bank card, activate it for foreign payments, walk another 15 minutes to an ATM, and get cash for her taxi. So overall, it was a complete disaster, but at least it makes for a good story to tell during other dates.
Date #2 (Iranian doctor)
Not much to say here, it was a textbook informational date. She had only 1 hour so I couldn't pull. We just talked and had a tea.
Cold approach interactions
Cold approach is pretty easy in Dubai : there are a lot of hot girls, and the city is really safe so the girls' guards are down. Moreover, the city is full of pathetic rich guys who only know one method to get girls, prostitution. So if you have game, you stand out.
I approached a very tall and attractive blonde British girl in a mall, in her thirties. We were both lost and had a chat for 5 minutes trying to find our way. I invited her to have a drink later but got the boyfriend objection.
Inside my airbnb apartment, there was a very hot black fitness instructor girl. I approached her in the kitchen and we also had a solid interaction. Unfortunately, it was the last day and I couldn't make anything happen.
Actual paradise on earth (third-world country)
I'm not going to say where this place is because it's an absolute gold mine and I don't want packs of British tourists to come here and ruin it for the rest of us. If you're reading this and promise to be discreet about it, I'll tell you in PM.
In this country, with my IA-fueled online apps profile and the exoticness factor, I don't even need to swipe. I got 100 likes in the first day over Bumble and Tinder and just had to pick my favorite girls. It's not that you don't need game, you still need to do everything like usual, but it's game in ultra-easy mode instead. Male competition is extremely weak, just a bunch of weirdos asking for nudes and sending dick picks, old men with zero game asking for girls to come directly to their places in the first message, stuff like that. Most girls who installed apps never went on a date at all, but are very interested to meet a normal, exotic foreigner with above-average social skills. So this is what absolute abundance feels like ?
Over the first week, I set up 2 dates per day every day, then got burnt out and limited myself to 1/day with a few exceptions. I will just talk about the most interesting ones.
Date #1 : Nerdy girl with an amazing body
First date went ok, normal informational date in a coffee lounge. We met again for a dinner date, which was the most erotic date I've ever had. It all started with a basic cold read (you look innocent but I bet you like sex) and wow did she like sex. She showed me nude videos of herself on her phone while we were still eating in the restaurant and we just talked about our sexual experiences all evening. After that, we went back to my place and had wild sex, she could barely even walk down the stairs when we were done
Date #2 : "Scammer" girl
This one barely spoke English so the vibe was mid, but I still tried to make it happen just to see how far I could push it. We ended up having sex at my place with almost no resistance, but since there was little connexion it was pretty bad. She also asked me to pay for her taxi, and told me it was 5x the actual price. I didn't know better as it was my second day here, but fortunately i'm poor and didn't have that kind of money on me, so I gave her all my cash, which ended up being just a bit more than the correct price.
Date #3 : Wealthy US traveller
We met in a bar, she had a really sexy dress and was super cute, a lot of energy. We went back to my place and kissed, did a bit of foreplay but too much LMR. We ended the evening drinking a bottle of local cognac we bought at the bar of my residence, just ended up pretty drunk and still didn't have sex. I could have escalated more tbh. Didn't get a second date because she went back to the US a few days after
Date #4 : International fashion model
We met at a lounge for a few drinks. I was intimidated by her beauty, it's the first time I have a date with a model. But I forced myself to use my game normally and not put her on a pedestal. I invited her home and we had sex pretty much immediately after weak LMR. I met her again for a dinner date a few days later, she arrived with an extremely revealing outfit, a transparent jumpsuit with a massive cleavage and no bra. We had dinner at an upscale restaurant, took a few pictures there and then we went back to my place for more crazy sex.
Date #5 : The receptionnist from my residence
We had a few talks in the hallways and I could tell she's attracted to me. So I invited her to go for a drink when she's not working, and it went well. Not quite sure if I should push for sex with her to be honest : if she sees me with other girls and auto-rejects, I might get in trouble ? I'm not sure how to handle it. Anyway, I guess that counts as cold approach ? Not really sure if hired guns are considered cold approach or social circle.
Date #6 : Very hot inexperienced girl
This one was epic. We went for drinks in a nearby bar, and seeing her I thought she was a dating pro. Her fundamentals were pretty much perfect, with a sexy dress, elaborate haircut, beautiful makeup and attractive body language. I brought her home but when I tried to escalate, I was met with intense LMR, and soon understood why : she only had 1 total partner in the rest of her life. She generally lacked confidence in her beauty and attractiveness, and was also never going out, partying or drinking alcohol. As a result, she was very unsure and nervous about this whole situation. This is where sex talk really saved the day : I set up good frames and came up with a gambit inspired by "Sex God Method". It ended up working and finally had sex the same night.
I got 5 new lays in the last month, exploding my goals so far. The 3-girl rotation goal is not that far-off either. I'm still in that great place for 2 weeks and I will miss it (and the girls) for sure. Or maybe there are even better spots somewhere in the world ? Time will tell.
