The basics of a great wingman

Posted by Blade On July - 24 - 2008

man oh man,

Ive been privilaged enough to have great friend who have been the greatest wingmen.
But since I’ve moved cities I’ve had to go out sarging with guys who werent the best.

As you get better you will find that it is much better to go out alone than with a lack luster wingman.

Going out with a crappy wingman is like trying to swim with weights tied to your legs.

There are many articles on the web with rules and instructions on what a wingman should behave and I’ve even seen a manual somewhere.
So I’ve decided to write a short post on my take on what a great wingman should be.

A wingman makes you look good

You come of as a little arogant or trying to impress if you sing your own praises.
But if your good friend does it, its not as bad.

A wingman opens sets and introduces you

There is something we like to call an “Accomplishment introduction”
An example would be something like ” hey ..you guys should meet my good friend Johan, this dude is a writer, freakin poet if you ask me, hes a journalist. but he doesnt like to brag abotu what he does ”

This example shows how Johans wingman introduced him in his absense, conveyed a little abotu what Johan does (journalist) and even made his slightly bland carreer look good.

A wingman encourages you to open sets

Its freaking tough enough battling approach anxiety without hearing negativity from your trusted wingman.

A wingman takes one for the team

when talking to 2 or more girls and you are only interested in getting to know just 1 of them, someone is going to have to “run intereference” on the other girls. someone has to keep then entertained or occupied while your doing your thing.
This is your wingmans job. More often than not her friends, if they feel left out of the fun will interupt you.
Like it or not, most ladies have a similar rule to “bros before hoes”.

You are supposed to have fun with your wingman

Need I say more.

    Nice post – I agree 100% about the importance of a good wingman. However I have also being going solo a bit in NYC and that can be fun.

    Coming to Cape Town for a week starting on Monday (Sept 15th) if you want to meet up for coffee and chat about game. Drop me an email.

  4. Rox says:

    I have a ‘wingchick’, she rocks – she has even stayed at my flat while I have been er, elsewhere, and fed my cats the next morning and fetched me from the elsewhere.

    Can’t beat that!

  5. Blade says:

    Rox, your wing-girl is your maid?

  6. Rox says:

    Haha, she’s my partner in crime!

  7. Blade says:

    Ok i think u got the shit twisted.
    your live in girlfriend or partner cannot be your wing-girl.
    Unless you are some sort of swinger…and into sharing….thats something else completely… :)

  8. Rox says:

    No no no, I swear – she’s a bona fide wing chick, who does everything from intros to set ups to looking after my place when the need arises.

    I swear, we have our own game, and it works pretty damn well too. Especially at The Dubliner after a couple of tequilas!

  9. Blade says:

    she does all your intros and setups?!
    hahah sounds like shes the PIMP( Playa In Management Position ) , id love to meet her :)
    your just along for the ride reapin the benefits.

  10. Rox says:

    Hey, I have my own methods too you know, hahaha. Good to have a PIMP as well as know how to work it solo. ;-)

    Hey Blade,

    Nice post, the last 3 are uber important rules, and a total AFC can be your wing if he remembers them. Of course we all want more than average wings ;)

    Say, hows about setting up a PUA hookup forum where these guys can arrange missions together without going off topic on cool posts? No offence guys-

    Don’t let me JynX you
