How would you have handled this situation in the club?

Ok see I was in the club the other day, and I see this HB8 standing off by herself so I go up and start talking to her, I think I opened with "Why are you standing all the way back here, or maybe why aren't you dancing". She said it was too hot out on the dance floor, which it was, it was really hot in that club that night, so I said that and pointed out it was worse for me cuz I was wearing a long sleeve dress shirt with a shirt underneath, then she mentioned something about how she was almost naked (she was wearing a strapped top). So I felt like the convo was just getting good, but then her friend comes along a HB5 kinda big, and does this thing where she points to the HB8 and then points back to herself in a kinda we're together motion and then moves in on HB8 and starts grinding her so I can't even see HB8 with this big chick in front, so I just left. What would you have done?

Good ol UG c0ckblock friend. Well I might have tap the UG on the shoulder and tried to befriend/disarm her. This doesn't always work. Or I might have lingered around for a little while to see what happens and if I got an opening for the HB8 and just reopened her and sort of ignore the friend.. I guess it depends on how far you want to push it. It's a tough situation to turn in your favor. Did you see them around the bar again or did you leave the bar all together?

The 8 wasn't into you and she signalled the 5 to 'save' her. Maybe there are some ways you can 'save' an encounter like this, but if it doesn't work, then you're just standing there like a loser. Personally, I hate that. So if you hate it too, just cut your losses and move on.

It's hard to tell what kind of 'vibe' you had in the short convo from just reading it, but what you've said doesn't sound all that inspiring. Approaches like this, it's best not to dwell on it too much. Either you make a good impression at first, and when the ug ckkblock arrives the hb gets rid of her for you, or lets you get rid of her, otherwise, you get shut out and it's best to move on (unless you have got good ckkblock busting skills and don't mind it when they don't work and you're left "stanidng there").
