Over time Pick Up Artists have developed their own language, so...


Here's a dictionary with some words and abbreviations that are regularly used by pick up artists.


#close - the number close. Get the girl's number. Give your's if she only agrees to an exchange.

*close - kiss close. Get the girl to kiss you. Then #close:)

3s rule - the three seconds rule. There may be a maximum of only three seconds between you seeing a girl and acting upon it. (+ a distance of 8CM) then; kiss her.

AFC - Average Frustrated Chump. A phrase coined by Ross Jeffries to describe a healthy (read: horny) male not (yet:) educated in the art of seduction (which in Ross Jeffries' terms would be Speed Seduction, but that is much too limiting). A few typical traits of an AFC - hanging on to just one certain girl, supplicating, swallowing whatever crap treatment a woman gives him, being afraid to make a move, thinking in terms of "dates", eiter for lack of courage and/or knowledge being unable to do a pick-up or a close.

ASF - alt.seduction.fast, a Usenet newsgroup created by Ross Jeffries for discussing Speed Seduction and its implementation, which has far outgrown its original agenda by becoming the world's premiere discussion board covering various seduction techniques. Everything in quotation marks starting with "ASF:" is material originally published on ASF.

Kino - kinaesthetics. Touching her: her hands, shoulders etc.

LJBF - "Let's Just Be Friends", also know as "the treatment". WRONG!!
