This is simple advice. I’ve done it. And I’ve seen other people do it. And it works. It works like a charm. This is best for guys who haven’t yet developed their own personal style and unleashed their own personal inner charisma.
People naturally feel most comfortable around people they know. They are also most attracted to people that they see often. This is the reason people often date someone they work with, go to school with, or share mutual friends with. You see these people all the time and they are part of your consciousness. When you see these people out you are drawn to them out of their familiarity. Because they are familiar you feel rapport with them and are attracted to them easier then someone you are seeing for the first time.
Follow me so far?
This all came much clearer recently in Brazil. I was in a city where I knew no one. The place is filled with beautiful women. It is relatively easy to initiate a conversation with any of the girls down there, as I am a young decent looking foreigner. What I noticed about myself is that I was drawn to the girls that reminded me of girls I knew back home. I was consistently going after the girls that resembled girls from my social circle, not just in appearance but in manner. It wasn’t a conscious descision. But in a land of unfamiliarity these girls were comfortable. They put me at ease. I felt a rapport with them which made me more attracted to them.
Which got me to thinking. When you’re out and you see someone who looks like someone that you know, don’t you pay a little more attention to them then the other less familiar looking faces? Most people do. It’s natural. We like familiarity. Women are the same way. I’ve found that when a woman I just met tells me that I remind her of someone she knows, she is usually more responsive to me, lets things accelerate quicker, and generally less flaky in future meetings.
So the question I had was how could I create this rapport more often. And the answer was to remind women of someone they know more often. Since we don’t know anything about most women and the men in their lives, how can we remind them of someone they know. We have to remind them of someone that everyone knows. And who does everyone know? Celebrities.
I know a few guys who naturally resemble celebrities (not neccassarily traditionally good looking celebrities) and these guys have always have an easy time opening women. Most of the time the women don’t even realize that the guy looks like so and so, but they feel an instant rapport with them. This is because these guys are familiar to women. The women feel like they’ve known them for a long time. They put their guards down.
So a quick way to gain instant rapport with women is to emulate a celebrity. Most of us have a celebrity that we resemble in some way. It doesn’t have to be a great looking guy. It can be Tony Soprano for all it matters. It just has to be someone that is part of national conciousness. Once you decide on someone that you pysically resemble (it helps if its someone that other people have told you) then next step is emulate their mannerisms, their tone of voice, their gestures, facial expressions, and style of dress. I’m not talking about stalker type obsessive shit… I’m just talking about emulating someone.
You can rent a few videos of the person you’ve chosen and really watch them. And practice. Practice their walk, their talk, and their mannerisms. You don’t want to make it obvious that you’re trying to look like someone. And the people that know you closely will notice the change and most likely rip on you for it.. but when you go out you’ll notice a huge difference in the way you are reacted to.
Girls will open up to you much easier. This doesn’t mean you don’t need the game to back it up. But it will open doors that might have otherwise been shut. Try it. See for yourself and let me know the results.

Thats a great idea, it also helps if you suit your dress to general hot guys in that area, I found this when I returned to my hometown and found that while my dress suited where I’d been living, it didn’t suit the more urban style of my surroundings. It’s often good to be flexible to suit your surroundings.

I can relate to this. I have a friend who looks like an uglier version of Mark Wahlberg. He’s chubby but has his face. He plays it up. Goes with the whole quiet rage marky mark thing. and he gets ass. he’ll never admit that he plays it up but he does.

good point.. sometimes standing out from the crowd works well thought too. As long as its a cool look. I can see what you mean though as I had spent time in europe awhile back and when i came back to the US my style was out of sink and got me nowhere.
Ace,
Funny, I have a friend who does the mark wahlberg thing too. He’s got a girl already for awhile but girls always ask about him.

Its funny you put up that picture because I’ve been told by a bunch of people that I look like him. I never thought of emulating him though… I guess its time to watch the bourne movies again, lol
