Ah in that case we are completely in agreement.

I wouldn’t want to defend every PUA thing out there, as there’s plenty of bad advice. Also a lot of guys who are juvenile and/or clearly bitter, trying to claim to be experts.

But among all that is some helpful, mature advice, that can help some guys, such as it did for me.

To the OP, I’ve heard that a lot of young people nowadays have trouble talking because they spend so much time either online or texting that talking person to person is more difficult.

You might want to read some books about conversation. It really is a topic you need to study up on.
