Most of the guidelines of the game are based on perceived relative status, and they change depending on how she feels your status compares to hers at any given time. So if you currently have a high-status position in society, rather than playing it up, play it down. Do exactly the opposite of what’s suggested above. Keep it vague.

TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR INNER GAME
By Thomas Scott McKenzie

In fact, it’s safe to say that without confidence, all the seduction techniques known to man will not help you attract the women you desire.
But many men struggle with this most crucial of characteristics. Difficult childhoods, less-than-model looks, meager bank accounts, dead-end jobs, piece-of-shit cars, receding hairlines, underarm odor, and dating dry spells all reduce worthy men to nervous, timid mice. Even men with rock-hard abs and shiny red convertibles are sometimes unable to look women in the eye and speak with a strong voice, because something damaged their self-esteem and confidence. If you’re saddled with weak inner game, then openers, routines, and good stories won’t help you achieve your goals.
However, there are a number of concepts you can harness to take control of your inner game. And by doing so, you’ll learn that we are not helpless victims vulnerable to our mind’s tyranny. Instead, we control our minds. We control our emotions. We control our perceptions, our feeling, and our outlook.
