For a book that espouses a way of life that introduces the reader to acronyms like:
"PUA" - pick up artist
"AFC" - average frustrated chump
"ASD" - anti-slut defence
"IOI" - indicator of interest
"MPB" - male pattern blindness
"RAFC" - reformed average frustrated chump
"SS" - speed seduction
it sure ends in a rather introspective way. No chest-beating nor blowing of the trumpet.

"And though I've learnt everything there is about attraction, secution, and courtship in the past two years, I learnt nothing about maintaining a healthy relationship. Being together has required a lot more time and work than learning to pick up women ever did, but it has brought me far greater satisfaction and joy. Perhaps that's because it is not a game."
