Dan Bilzerian has revealed why he believes men are giving off a certain 'energy' when approaching women which is ultimately getting them nowhere.
As we approach the dreaded cuffing season, you may be getting into a bit of a pickle over making sure you have someone to snuggle down for the winter with.
If you've exhausted every single dating app and don't know how to approach women anymore, fear not, because former marine-turned-poker player and social media personality Dan Bilzerian - who's apparently the expert because he's constantly surrounded by half-naked girls in his Instagram posts - thinks he knows what the problem is.
Joining Lauryn Evarts Bosstick and Michael Bosstick on their podcast, The Skinny Confidential, Bilzerian says it seems like 'most men nowadays' appear to have 'almost given up'.

"I also think too there's a little bit of a desperate energy," Lauryn weighs in.
Bilzerian - who believes 'marriage is a trap' - responds: "That's what happens [...] it's like a snowball effect. You have a positive relationship, a girl likes you back, you have sex with her, you suck at first, you get better at it, confidence improves, all of a sudden her friend wants to bang you, confidence improves, things happen right? You go down the road and eventually you develop more confidence through your experience in this...
"But if your alternative is like, 'Oh this girl shot me down, I'm gonna go smoke week, jerk off and play video games and that becomes your default setting then like where the f**k are you in a year if you do that for one year?"

Bilzerian notes after 'a year out of the game' people end up 'less confident' as well as 'in worse shape'.
"It's like where you at? And it gets progressively worse and worse," he says.
Bilzerian questions: "At what point do these guys just give up because after two years, what's two years and one more day of not having sex right, like it gets to a point where [...] you just have a whole bunch of the society that's basically withdrawn from the game."
Ultimately, Lauryn resolves guys have become too 'comfortable' to approach girls anymore.

And Bilzerian agrees, adding: "Most people in general nowadays are addicted to comfort and this is true across the board.
"[...] I think winning in life is doing something that you like that also benefits other people that you enjoy. [...] That's the trifecta, to me, of success."
