Boyfriend Theory of Relativity is a PUA term where the PUA once confronted with his Targets admission that she has a Boyfriend must determine through questioning in a friendly and
non devaluing way to the Boyfriend the relativity of the Boyfriend in the targets relationship.
The idea is to determine if a healthy Boyfriend / Girlfriend relationship exists. The idea is to ask open ended questions allowing the
target to give information concerning the relationship. The PUA can then determine if the relationship is in poor condition and that he can convey higher value thus attracting the interest of the
target, or if the relationship is healthy and unassailable he should then move on to a new
target.
It is natural for a
woman to be reluctant to move out of one relationship unless there is
hope of another relationship close at hand, and so this theory is designed to determine the health of a Boyfriend / Girlfriend relationship and
work to displace the Boyfriend if the relationship is unhealthy.
