"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

On the campus field, next to the running tracks, I had stopped to drink water... and saw a cute HB 8 girl standing and stretching.. oh man.. I hadn't shaven.. BUT I had to appraoch her.. so I open her (over shoulder):

Me: Do yo know what time the bookstore closes?
Her: prolly around 9 *smiles*
Me: You are not from USC are you?
Her: I am.. I am a freshman.
Me: Freshman! nice.. whats your major?
HEr: Civil
ME: Nice.. thats awesome.. respect (kino punch)
<<I vibe with her on civil and college stuff>>

<<EXTERNAL INTERRUPT #1>>
A girl, HB 5, wearing "I love NY" t shirt..
ME: (after name exchange) Where are you from?
EI-1: blah blah (not NY) - looks down at her shirt
ME: but everybody loves NY right? haha
EI-1: *laughs* - is dealt with

<<EXTERNAL INTERRUPT #2>>
A guy, good looking, prolly after this girl, I befriend him, vibe with him, he sits with me.. but keeps engaging the target.. saying sh1t like - "you were running like a cheetah.. i couldn't catch up" - douche bag azzzhole.:cuss:

<<EXTERNAL INTERRUPT #3>>
Another guy, asian, I befriend him too, he shows tons of IOIs (asking me interview style questions) lol.. he's dealt with..

<<EXTERNAL INTERRUPT #4>>
Another guy, a nerdy white guy, I befriend him, he was not much of a smart azz.

But now, these ppl started talking about their own lame freshman stuff.. and we "guys" mutually exchanged goodbyes and I take off...

Lessons:

I should have used an engaging opener to bring everyone into a common discussion (started by ME not anybody else)

I should have negged the target when these guys started coming in


Good news:

My game is getting better now. I don't feel like a robot anymore. I feel more at ease controlling my sets. I think I can really get good pretty quickly.

I got her name though, so my sneaky azz has found my target on facebook. lol She seemed interested, but I don't expect much from this.


Limiting factors (my excuses):

I don't have an interesting lifestyle (like a planned pool party, or social event, or something fun like that). If I did, I would have invited the whole group to that event, and then number closed, and obviously gamed the target in MY SOCIAL environment... not theirs.

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Ugh, i hate when that happens. i used to get that nonstop at work whenver i was talking to a chick.

It's like other guys see you talking with a girl, they see it as their opportunity to get in on a conversation with OMG! a GIRL!

It got so bad i'd be talking to a chick, and then all of a sudden i'd hear a voice behind me go "Yeah that's so true." or start laughing if we cracked a joke.

At one point i even started using it as an opener.

"Hey you, I bet you 20$ that within 5 minutes of us talking, another dude is gonna sidle up on me and join in. If not sooner"

worked surprisingly well in that environment.

Sometimes i'd neghit the GUY if i already knew the chick. I'd turn around, look all shocked, then say somethign like "dude! so the vagisil worked? great to see you!"

I'm such a *****.

How about this, next time this happens tell your target "There's something I've noticed about you... oh damn I have to get going. Let me have your number and I'll catch up with you later"
Or some variation of that.

:crackup:

but the funny thing is, if you lock yourself in, or look like the girl knows you, these insects won't have the balls to swarm around.. only because they knew I was just in.. they came meddling in..

In my case, these guys were already a group, and it was night time, so maybe they wanted to make sure she was safe.

The point is, I had started kino, I was hugging her.. and she was enjoying it.. maybe that added to their brotherly fear. lol
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

If you really wanted to pursue, you should have asked the girl if she wanted to go somewhere else without making it seem too upfront, like "Its hot outside, wanna head for some shade?" or something not quite so bad.

And i'm new to these forums, so forgive me, but what do HB and AFC mean? HB = hot blonde? hot brunette? Lol, no clue.

Yeah why not? Dont tell me you care.

Night time?
I'm always hesitant to approach chicks outside at night because I might come off as a creep. The only 2 times i tried to do it the girls were not receptive at all so that's given me a bad feeling about it.

Yeah, maybe until I get something planned for a group pickup (inviting the entire group), OR have opportunity to isolate her (A wing or 2 might help), I should just use this kind of curiosity builder line, and close, and leave. good idea.

Some wing(s) would make things easier.

I have seen videos of direct approaches at night, on single sets of girls, opening them from behind.. and still ending up in number closes.

If your intention and focus is to simply spark up the interaction, she will not get that creep vibe from you. Its all about sub-communications, and how you come off to other people.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
