I watched the first half of Alex's podcast with Mystery and Beckster. As someone who has not read the book "The Game," I have, however, heard it mentioned often in the pickup community. Alex has often mentioned Mystery as one of his inspirations. Mystery was talking about the 4-hour rule and 10-hour rule. To recap, the 4-hour rule is the minimum time to build comfort with the girl, according to Mystery. Rushing the comfort-building process, Mystery claims you will likely encounter LMR or if she does sleep with you, she might regret it and this would jeopardize your chance of another meetup. The 10-hour rule is basically if you don't sleep with her after 10 hours, you'll probably be stuck in the friend zone.
As today we use a lot of social media (Instagram, dating apps), how do you all think these rules stand up in the modern dating market? How do long-distance relationships factor in to this rule?

All of that is nonsense. Forget "game" and "pickup stuff". Unplug yourself from that rabbit hole and just be a normal human being.
You only need to 3 things. Talk to lots of women. Take great pictures for your dating profile. Have a social life.
