Ive never been to a bar alone, but have wondered off on my own lots of times, and approach girls, one reason is because sometime my wingman straight up sucks at talking to women or because I just like practicing game regardless.
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
When all your friends are nerds? And the few that are not nerds, you are not alpha enough or close enough to them to tag along?San Jose California said:To the people who endorse going out alone, you guys never say why go out alone? Because you have no friends?
Sometimes people change their minds and bail or leave you hanging. Sometimes I want to test the waters with new stuff and don't want stage freight.San Jose California said:To the people who endorse going out alone, you guys never say why go out alone? Because you have no friends?
You live in IV? I do....anyway I agree with you there, that would be weird. the type of clubs/bars ive been going to have really poppin off dance floors so thats where i usually meet my girls and get separated from my friendsSan Jose California said:Wondering away from your friends in the streets of Isla Vista is the type of situation where it's ok to have fun alone. But to go to a bar, and beforehand think "I'm gonna go to a bar and sit there... by myself, yep just sit there for a few hours, maybe join in a few conversations with the people next to me" is seriously weird.
No it's called Being Social.San Jose California said:Wondering away from your friends in the streets of Isla Vista is the type of situation where it's ok to have fun alone.

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
Being alone also means that you must be driving. So you can't even get a drink. How very liberating. Now add to it the fact that you can't dance or don't look too buff like all the other huge doods who are overshadowing you. Add to it the fact that you are from another country and English is technically your second language. Add to it the fact that you just saw a Jaguar, a bentley, and a Lambo parked outside.Aragon034 said:No it's called Being Social.
If you can walk into a bar with no one knowing you before hand, and leave with numbers, invites to parties, or even more, then what's the weirdness of it?
Who's talking about just sitting there? interact! You're right that it would be weird for a guy to just sit there and do nothing... SO DO SOMETHING!
Here's an example, walk to up barstool, order something, make a comment on girl sitting next to you (necklace, bracelet, whatever) keep it light and friendly and then plow! For all you know you're about to make new friends and voila, you aren't alone anymore.
I don't deny any of your points there. It is hard. but you're also right about your game becoming much much better than any "mofo on the planet" by sticking at it.daygameguy said:Being alone also means that you must be driving.

Try giving value to people, spreading love! yeah right.. lol it needs some serious inner game, I mean some ROCK SOLID inner game to totally LORD the night in that situation.
So there are some serious issues guys.
But once you get good at going out alone, your personality and game will be better than any mofo on the planet. You will become absolutely untouchable. Which is why I have a love-hate relationship with cold approaching, or sarging in general.

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
My thoughts exactly. If you don't have much game, the bar is not the place for you, because woman will go off on you if you come across as either a weak little punk or you do that neg-hit shiit the wrong way they will have some dudes jump your punk-ass. Plus you have to factor in that alcohol and drugs in people's systems make them do crazy ****, so you have to have a knack at avoiding drama.KontrollerX said:This is advanced game for the truly confident DJ.
Until you get confidence and the gift of gab you should probably roll with a wingman.
I'd never advocate going on a hunt with a group of guys though that just scares the sh!t out of women and gives you extra unnecessary competition.
Anyway once you become truly confident and your game is tight going out alone is the best way to do it.
If you need someone to hold your hand, there is always people at the bar who will hang with you. I run into people by themselves all the time, mostly dudes just out chillin. Play pool or find a group of 2 or 3 and you can hang out if you need someone with you. Meeting people at a bar is the easiest thing to do in the world.San Jose California said:Finally someone says it. This board is full of people who think it's ok to go to clubs/bars by themselves. Fact is, nobody who isn't some retarded, socially awkward freak goes out by themselves. They go by themselves cuz they have no friends. When have you had the choice to go out with friends, or by yourself, and you chose yourself?
You go anywhere and act like that people are going to talk about you.speakeasy said:And a guy just standing against a wall in a bar by himself day after day is going to have creepy written all over him.
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.
