How are you supposed to build enough game to be competitive if you are a mad scientist who prefers to be inventing things in your free time?

Capitalize on your strengths. If you like to invent things, use your inventive nature to your advantage. Women love inventive men.

Otherwise, you don't have to play the game. I don't play the game myself and I am doing pretty good (Have a few women who enjoy my company).

You don't have to play a game, or "talk game". Be comfortable in your own skin and just listen to women. That's pretty much all they want and need summed up. We mystify them way too damn much.

Even scientists need some loving from time to time, I know that from experience. First off, I'd lose the PUA nonsense. Women don't like games any more than men do. You just need to get a little self-confidence. Each day if you interact with a woman smile and say hello. If she seems open, ask how her day is going or something along that line. The more you do this, the less scary it will become.

Scientists don't need loving, they need chemical reactions.

You got enough "game", just get out of your basement often enough to be able to meet women.

I agree with this. But the first step is actually leaving the house. You can't spend all your time holed up the house, pursuing individual interets, and then lament that you can't meet a woman when you're not even trying to.

Well one of the issues then is after you meet them how do you manage to give them more time than they could get from others? Give up your interests? How then do you manage to be genuine and "just yourself"?

Seriously?! Mad scientist type *IS* my type! I love guys with an education and scientific background. I also love guys who tinker and fix things. Double bonus if the guy (in addition to dating) needs his alone time in the basement or whatever because I need my alone time too.

But honestly, that doesn't answer the question. Don't worry about this "game" nonsence. To put in in scientific terms, it's pseudoscience and snake oil. But you will need to "Get out there" to meet women. If you want to find a woman who likes the same things you do, then look for women in paces you'd like to go to. using me as an example, I am in a science fiction book club (and it's a good mix of men and women).
