"How do I create many simultaneous plates?"

Main blog - https://mikemehlman.net/ Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/mikemehlman Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/mike_mehlman/ Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/mikemehlman.net I've talked about in a prior article about how to establish a repertoire of plates. This current post is more a reiteration of the previous discussion + includes a short video to drive my main points home, mostly in response to a recent comment/question on YouTube about how to establish plates (that's right, let me engage my audience). The first main thing the male must understand if he wants to create many simultaneous plates is that it is extremely hard to do this because it necessitates high-volume, consistent approach over many months. In other words, it requires an incredible amount of hard work that most guys just aren't willing to invest into the process. Yet again, there's zero entitlement to living a life where you have a repertoire of plates. And I'm not talking about 2-3 girls you sleep with somewhat routinely and then come out and declare your beta complacency. I'm talking about having 6-10 different girls you see with varying frequency (i.e., as much as 2-3x a week, and as little as once every couple months) + having frequent dates where you have random hookups with girls who don't become plates. The # of theoretical plates and hookups you want must be commensurate with the volume of consistent approach you engage in. There's no way around that. It's not hard to maintain 2-3 plates + have few sporadic hookups. But it *is* hard to maintain 6-10 plates + have many sporadic hookups. The time you invest into approach as an input = your frequency of sexual outcomes as an output. This isn't complicated, but I must reiterate it. Also, high-volume approach means high-volume rejection. So that leads me to the second point: In order to live a life where you have many women you're simultaneously seeing + hooking up with, it necessitates that not only are you approaching consistently and with high-volume, but you are also incurring repeated, ongoing rejection at a level most guys can't even come close to fathoming. This is why most guys simply just don't have many simultaneous plates + hookups. It's a combination of 1) not liking the idea of going out and incurring repeated rejection, and 2) not wanting to invest the time into approach. Guys want quick outcomes but don't recognize that a certain amount of hard work needs to be invested in order to acquire those outcomes. You don't just go out, make a few approaches, and acquire instant hookups. It doesn't work like that. You must make an inordinate number of approaches (and incur vastly more rejections) compared to any theoretical quantity of hookups you hope to achieve. I've talked about many times before how rejection will compose the majority of your interactions no matter what. So in order to live a life where you have many simultaneous plates, the amount of rejection you incur as a male needs to exist at a theoretical percentile that corresponds to the rarity of the sexual life you lead. So if you want a top-0.001% life where you sleep with 10 different girls simultaneously + have many sporadic hookups, then that requires you approach at the top-0.001% level compared to other guys. Your desire for a certain number of plates and hookups must match your investment into approach + incurring rejection. Some guys want more quantitative discussion though. "Michael, but can you tell me actual numbers. Like, *how many* girls do I need to approach and how often? Just give me an idea." Full article: https://mikemehlman.net/
