Knowing that somebody is using learned techniques to "get you" is totally weird. We generally want to believe that somebody is authentic i.e. they are who they seem to be.
However, most PUA approaches generally assume that
who we are is a combination of how we
behave,
look and
think. All of those things can be changed... In a sense we can become new people.
A PUA is trying to stop being an
unattractive person and become an
attractive person. In order to do this they have to stop being themselves and start learning to be somebody new. During that process of change it isn't really possible to be congruent.
