PUA actually is a person who has a good communication skills at first. As culture grows, PUA has evolved a fraud method.
A Beijing University student suicided last year and left this year because of her boyfriend who is PUA. She called her boyfriend master. Obviously, there was an unequal relationship between them. The boy controlled her mind with hitting and insulting and beguiling.
PUA also exists in job market. The boss always controls your mind that only this company want to employ you, or no one wants to teach you the details lie me….In the mean while your workload is very heavy with low salary.
PUA seems exist in our life . How can we keep away form PUA? In my opinion, we should affirm self-values , don’t be affected by other’s comments. Try to find a equal relationship with others. We should respect each other in relationship.
Be vigilant that fall in love in the first sight. In reality, it’s with tiny success.

PUA seems to exist in our life . How can we keep away form PUA? In my opinion, we should affirm our individual values and avoid being affected by others. We should also try to keep the high-quality relationships and get rid of/ forgo/give up the unequal ones. We should respect each other in relationships.
