Hi, New here – have a couple of questions:

1.Couple of questions – is 27 too late to learn the game? I wish I knew this stuff when I was 20. (have been reading PUA stuff last few months).

2.I have the option of getting married to a quality chick in my original country? The only reason that stops me is I have known the pleasure and high one gets from bedding beautiful chicks (rare though) – so arranged marriage seems a cop out – like the difference between surfing a wave and doing the same wave on boat. It just ain't the same.

Any comments?

27 is not nearly too old to learn game. If you go to a workshop, bootcamp, pua conference, or free seminar, you'll see guys of all ages. Some are college kids, some are in their 30's, some are fresh off of a divorce after many years of marriage, and so on. You just have to put in the work, go through some embarassment, be willing to grow, and really want to have this a part of your life.

As for the arranged marriage, I personally believe 27 is too young to get married. I think marrying someone from outside the United States with a good family background and family-oriented values is great, but you can find that yourself. However, you may meet this woman and find out she is great.

In the end, do what you are happiest doing.

27 is a great age...
Not too old at all.

As Ugslayer said, if you're happy getting it to this now, go for it

Don't do it man!

What country do you live in?

27 is not too late to learn game, but it's important to keep in mind that it's easier the younger you are. The longer you are stuck in AFCism, the harder it is to get out. Dude's should be learning this shit when they are in the early teens ideally, then they'll be set and up to speed when hit college. As you get older, more and more women are married or taken and the quality girls thin out. You can always go for younger girls if that's your thing, but honestly, I can't relate much to girls in their early 20s unless they are unusually mature for their age. If you are going to jump in, do it now and don't delay. I don't think it gets any easier with age.

27's probably right around the median age of people learning it. If you really start making the effort now, and stick it out, you'll wind up having plenty of other "options."

I agree with Armanid, turn your love to Jesus, he can save you from sin!

many guys in my community learned the game after they reach their 30s.

and guess what,i have seen them as a 'polished players' after they got married arrange.

Hi Guys, thanks for comments – much appreciated.
Ugslayer > A year back I would have thought 27 is too early to get married too. But I am a bit over going to pubs or bars plus if I see my mates who are with their long-terms or married, I think they are more happy and content, have someone to travel with etc – stuff I would like to do now. So now I am open to the idea of settling down with a quality girl.
I didn’t realise until about a year back why I wasn’t meeting the type of chick I wanted - Reading Devlin, Roissy and Roosh and combining them with my experiences made me see the true reality. I guess they don’t make em’ like they used too anymore.
In a way I am being forced to get into the game – you have to adapt and work with reality.
Toddh , thegmanifesto and laowai > cheers, I think 27 isn’t too late either – I guess its a skill you’ll use for a long time.

Speakeasy > I live in Australia.
Agree I wish I got into this earlier – but while I am no alpha not really a typical AFC either, I had a decent score till uni though that was pure luck. The reason for getting into the game is since I moved to a new city and started working – the pool of chicks I now meet at work is really limited and even a lower number of quality targets worth pursuing. What I want from game is the ability to expand my pool of potential targets. All I have now is a few mid 30’s and 40’s well past their prime – they do absolutely nothing for me.

1. It is never too late to do anything.

2. I would say that 30 would be a better age to be married. In your 20s you're still developing emotionally and figuring out what you like, whereas when you're 30, you're pretty much a stable personality.
