I started getting into magic a month ago because it's something I've always wanted to get into. After a lot of practicing I've gotten really good. So last week I went to random strangers around and I've gotten incredible reactions each time. I was waiting at the bus stop for the campus bus and I decided to approach this girl I've been eyeing for a bit. I simply went up to her with a "hi" and did my thing. After a minute of talking I asked her if she believed in magic. She said she believes in tricks, it'll take a lot for someone to convince her that magic exists.
So I improvised some tricks I knew for DJ'ing. One was where she had coins in her hand and I closed my hands over hers, and changed them into something else. Then there's the classic coin behind the ear, both were great for kino. Last one was where she was thinking of a card, and I was to flip it over in the deck. But I looked into her eyes for about 15 seconds pretending to read her mind, where I said, "I'm new to mind reading, but I know which card you picked, and that you think I'm cute." Needless to say that I got the number.
I feel a little more confident in talking to girls now, even without using magic. I have to admit that it's a great icebreaker or way to introduce yourself if you just can't go up and say "hi". Anyone else have similiar experiences? I'm definiately not gonna go up to every girl and do magic though, I don't want a reputation that it's my gimmick to get chicks.
