Canned stories can also guide the conversation. If you start with a story about a book you read that had a profound impact on you, it can lead to a discussion about books, ideas, and different perspectives. This kind of in - depth conversation can improve your social interactions as it allows you to connect on a deeper level with others.
One canned story could be about a travel adventure where you overcame some challenges. For example, you got lost in a foreign city but managed to find your way with the help of locals. It shows your ability to adapt and your sense of adventure.
There was this man in a PUA story. He attended PUA workshops to improve his social skills. He learned how to use body language effectively, like maintaining good eye contact and having an open posture. He applied these skills at a party. He first engaged in a group conversation and then smoothly transitioned to talking one - on - one with a woman he was interested in. His new - found confidence and skills led to him getting her phone number and going on a date later.
There was a PUA who thought he could impress a girl by showing off his dance moves in the middle of the street. He started doing some really wild and uncoordinated dancing. The girl was initially shocked but then found it so hilarious that she couldn't stop laughing. She said she had never met someone so confident and goofy at the same time. They became friends after that encounter.
Confidence is a major one. For example, if a person is confident in approaching others, it makes a big difference. Also, good communication skills like being able to listen and respond well. Just like in a story where a guy listened to a girl's travel tales and then shared his own relevant experiences, which led to a connection.
One story is about a PUA who thought wearing a really flashy hat would make him stand out. He walked up to a girl and said 'You must be tired because you've been running through my mind all day.' The girl looked at his hat and said 'Is that hat part of your pickup strategy?' They both burst out laughing. It turned out she was interested in his confidence, not his hat or the line.
One great Dhv (Demonstration of Higher Value) story could be about your travels. For example, 'I was in Thailand once and got to volunteer at an elephant sanctuary. It was amazing to be so close to those gentle giants and help out in their care. I learned so much about their behavior and how important conservation is.'
Canned heat was also important in some historical events. For example, during the World Wars, canned heat was sometimes used by soldiers in the field. It was a convenient way to heat rations when they couldn't build a proper fire. The soldiers could use it to warm up coffee or heat small portions of food, which helped boost their morale and keep them going in difficult conditions.
In some old mining towns, canned heat was a staple. Miners would take canned heat down into the mines with them. There were times when there were cave - ins or other problems that trapped miners underground for extended periods. Canned heat was used to warm up whatever meager provisions they had, and it also provided a bit of psychological comfort in the dark and cold underground environment.
One success story could be a guy who was really shy. He learned PUA techniques like active listening. He started conversations with girls by asking open - ended questions about their interests. Soon, he built good rapport and started dating a girl who shared his love for books.
