Hello, my name is Khiem and I am not a Pick-Up Artist (PUA).
A few years back, I started exploring the Seduction Community. It was fascinating for me to discover a community of guys who felt so inept with women that they’d spend all their waking hours trying to learn the skills that they felt were making them miss out on life.
If you are curious about the Pick-Up Artists, you can start reading this blog post where I lay out how the Seduction Community is kind of a mess. It’s a little dated but it will give you an idea of what PUAs are about.
At the time, I can’t say that I was ever stellar with women myself but what started as a passing curiosity on understanding male and female relationships turned into an avid pursuit in understanding our desire for happiness, love and connection and how we, as humans, are influenced and empowered by our own emotions.
I read everything under the sun, met the kind of people I would have never met otherwise and eventually even ended working with David Wygant, one of the top dating coaches in the country.
Yet… over this journey, I realized something. We… over complicate things.
And because of our own emotional insecurities, we hide and confuse ourselves.
Love is not that hard… but love is a reflection of how you feel about yourself.
So in this space, I want to share what I talk about with my closest of friends and show you what good men really talk about. I want to share my insights of what I’ve experienced and also what I have seen in clients.
I hope you will make Kiss N’ Tale the home where you can read about, listen to… and even give life to your own stories about what you have learned about yourself, men, women through your dating life because in the end, we all want to fall in love.

- I read tech blogs every day… it’s my guilty pleasure that takes me away being an outstanding productive citizen lol
- I can speak 3.5 languages: English, French, Vietnamese and Spanish – you can try to figure out which one(s) I’m not that good at

Johnny Soporno,
I finally ended watching the first 2 videos of your site. Very interesting stuff. I might have to write something on it soon.

I arrived on this site after a random google search for “When do u know that there is no attraction in a kiss” . I thought it would be another pricky Mr. Know-it-all but then I read it and find myself pleasantly surprised.
So then, presuming one fine day, you do manage to pick up a great girl, what do you do next?
Intriguing stuff….
April 12th, 2008 at 12:50 pm
Nitshuk,
Your question is very vague. What you do next is very dependent on how much you’ve done with the girl. Everything you do should be a progression of the previous interaction… and obviously, it also depends on what kind of relationship you want with her.
As far as knowing if there’s any attraction in a kiss, you have to pay attention to the girl’s body language and her receptivity to your touching.
Before the kiss, if you both can stand/sit close to each other, if there’s a lot of touching and your head/face always nearly touch… and if she looks at your eyes intently every so often, you can pretty much assume that there’s attraction.
However, some girls are very shy so you won’t know until you kiss her. As long as the girl is receptive to your touching advances, she likes you. When kissing, if she kisses back, then she likes you too.
You never know for sure unless she literally pushes you away.

Cool blog mate. It’s great to see someone with integrity spreading the love in the seduction community
I agree there is a load of info in the community but we all have a choice of what we will believe and we are all on our own path.

I second that. Cool blog, indeed. You have a lot of good insight here, and glad to see more socially awesome people around the webz.
Take care,
A

OMG Khiem,
i just stumbled upon ur blog while i googled “Adam Lyons” just now. It was 2 nd in the list – impressive ! Thats good business right there .
Anyways, u never told me u had helped Adam Lyons in his bootcamp. Wow! that post of urs about his bootcamp is pretty interesting. And I read some of your story in detail. Now i feel i have a better understanding where you r coming from. Awesome !
Now , about me ! I feel like I’m still searching for answers. I am as confused as ever – maybe worse than before i attended David’s bootcamp. Idk……maybe i want more , i want to date more girls but i don’t know where to start and i have problems sticking t just one thing. I want more game-oriented results. I know u think all PUA is crap but i still feel i need to learn more about it . Kinda pursue my own journey. Sometimes I feel depressed that I am still not able to get the hang of it.
I’ll be a happier person if i can become confident/charismatic like one of u guys – U, David or Adam.
Do u think I should sign up for Adam’s bootcamp?
Lemme know.
Regards
Sameer

Hey Khiem, found your blog through Asian Rake. I gotta say I really like where you’re coming from. Your views on dating, relationships, attraction and the pick up community align with how I see them. Yes, we definitely over complicate things. We need to strip away instead of add on =)Awesome blog. Keep it up!
