Mystery Method

Attraction + Comfort = Seduction

Each phase has three smaller stages under the Mystery Method.

He then spoke about how you need to start off every interaction with a girl with attraction, and after attraction you must qualify her by asking her questions.

But as important as attraction is, Mystery pointed out that the game is played in the “Comfort” stage of the interaction, and that it usually takes 7 hours from meet to close (ie: sex). That’s an average. It can take anywhere between 4 to 10 hours, but usually 7 (6 hours of which are in Comfort).

He went on to break down his method like this:

Attraction + Comfort = Seduction

Each phase has three smaller stages.

Mystery Method

Attraction
1. Open
2. Female to Male Attract (Make the woman attracted to us first)
3. Male to Female Attract (Find out what qualities she possesses and then use those to tell her you’re attracted to her)

Comfort
4. Comfort 1 (Build Rapport)
5. Comfort 2 (Go for phone number, build intimacy, hand holding, kino, etc)
6. Comfort 3 (Heavy intimacy, kissing, making out)

Seduction
7. Arousal
8. Last Minute Resistance
9. Sex

The next step to Opening was to install a “plot line.” Basically, Mystery said that you want to convince others that you and the target
don’t get along. By not getting along with your target, you engage the others in the group. He also spoke about how you have to have your own style. He recommended being enthusiastic about what you talk about (enthusiasm is contagious). You have to possess a strong identity and convey that Identity quickly.

European Perspectives

I’ve been using slightly evolved Mystery Method since I got into the game a couple years ago.  I find that it’s most effective in large cities, especially weekend nights.  I follow it’s structure pretty much all the time in these occasions, regardless of the country / city / venue.  :-)

I’m not a huge Mystery Method fan, to be honest.  I go in more direct typically, but I do use certain aspects of MM.  I concentrate on generating attraction early and use negs when they’re called for, but beyond that I’m not into the whole formula based theories.  Women in Poland are generally much easier to attract than in the USA, so no need for so much smoke & mirrors, IMO.

I tried the Mystery Method after reading The Game, but I found that I spent so much time “calibrating” - always wondering which stage I was in, to come off naturally.  I like his style & admire the guy’s skills tremendously, but it’s just too far of a stretch for my personality - I’m more of a Juggler guy.
