Day 8
2 approaches, 1 date that was scheduled but cancelled
Approach 1: 8/10. This one was a blowout lol... Idk if it was me, or just a ****ty girl. Pretty sure the latter. I was sitting on a bench, she was walking by. After she passed me, I got up and hustle walked to her, said my opener, and she didn't even stop walking. Honestly, her loss, not that big of a deal.
Approach 2: 9/10. Super sweet girl. Did my approach, she really enjoyed it, but I could tell that she didn't "hook". I don't know how to explain it, but I can tell in the first 10 seconds if she will say yes or not. I went for the close and she said she is engaged(!), but we exchanged IGs and she liked a pic of mine lol. I had a great conversation with her though, I'm really happy with how I handled that one. Areas for improvement: More kino early on in the interaction.
Had a first date(coffee) scheduled with a girl who cancelled when I said "Good morning
see you this afternoon", she said she was busy with an essay and asked to reschedule. I did not fall into the frame by saying "oh sorry, what's the essay on"(she could be lying) or saying "Ok, sounds good"(it's not good, is it?). I literally said "Ok I'll get back to you" and left it at that. This is something I've only learned lately!! She continued to apologize and asked for rescheduled to drinks at a bar on Monday night. I agreed, so it's scheduled. Hoping for the best!
Meeting up with my long time FWB tomorrow.
One thing I will say about rejection, never take it personally. That is one of my four amendments. I know it's easier said than done, but the more you understand humans and how your "ego" works, you stop translating people's actions with who you truly are.
Be patient. Keep at it. It will make more sense the more you grow as a man and as a person.
You are absolutely right. I have to enjoy the process more than anything else.
