Just my 2 cents - I have continued doing daygame, because whats else is left ? I haven't noticed that girls are scared or not willing to chat. Didn't really see much difference as opposed to period before the outbreak. My country is not as affected as others, but still we do have cases, clubs are closed etc. So my advice is unless you are in isolation or something to atleast continue with daygame. You don't want to find yourself in situation where all you skills are gone, AA is back etc once this shit is over

Haha, for me the effect of this pandemic is a little different. I was married for 5 years and now this pandemic has made me realize I maybe made the wrong choice of partner. Nothing like a life or death situation to determine whether you are compatible with someone.

I have athsma myself so I take this virus fairly seriously. No way am I going to go out seeking women in this situation. Young healthy people brush this virus off. Yes maybe the risk is low, but healthy people are oddly getting put in the ICU and dying, which is not typical and pretty disturbing. I am not panicking but I am taking what I think are reasonable precautions. Isolating as much as I can despite still working at my 'essential' job, lots of hand sanitizer, masks, hand washing, etc. I am basically taking that as my priority right now.

My wife however, takes it less seriously than I do. I am insistent on her wearing a mask in public. She didn't like that very much and hence the breakdown of our marriage! Crazy, but hey, I stand my ground on this one. PUA taught me to value myself and my own health over the whims of a woman. I have no issue leaving her over this. However the situation is complicated, being married in the same house and all. I have no choice but to stay with her. Divorce cannot happen in Canada without being physically separated for 1 year.

In any case, this pandemic brought me back the the PUA community. I will be reading and maybe posting on the forum, but going out and doing pick up?? HECK NO, at least until this all blows over.

After May 15th the lockdown will be over in Romania. Let's see how the new landscape will be for daygame.

Dunno here, dude. Divorcing over only this thing looks to me like it's not the wisest thing to do. I refused to wear a mask for more than a month, until masks were mandatory in my city.

Well it is not up to me to tell *you* to wear a mask, and I don't want to go way off topic debating that. I will just say that I beg to differ and I consider it extremely unwise to shun masks in this situation. I was prepared and I have a large stash of N95 and P100 masks, prepared specifically for this pandemic.

Even if it's not 100% protection it provides a lot, and it's not just about that. Lower exposure to viral particles reduces the severity when you DO catch it, so even if I catch it anyway, it should be less severe. It's called "viral load". It is why healthcare workers often get worse illness, being exposed more makes the illness more severe. Your government made them mandatory for a reason. They really do know better than you.

Maybe it is not totally grounds for divorce yet, but a wife who won't follow what I consider some basic safety rules in the middle of a once in 100 year event is not acceptable. Why should I accept a partner recklessly deciding to be a risk to both of our safety? It is one of those things I consider non-negotiable.

The country where I am has slowly opened restrictions.... but people seem to be really tense and there are no crowds.

This is the first day I am hunting again because I'm really fed up with this corona bullshit.

My best venues are either closed or super restricted... this is really shit. Also ive done a trek through the bigger cities to see how most companies are doing... it doesnt look good.

Even the toilets are restricted. Ridicilous.
