Inspired by some old journals I read. Hoping this goal (to finish by the end of the year) will reinforce consistency. I find that approaches are easier after you've done a few, but if you take a long break then you start to get in your head again. To future self: stay tf out of your head, my guy. I'll try to keep them short, but provide details where I see fit for my own reflection and for critique. Alright, let's get it.
10-4 - Military girl - Last week I was at a friend's apartment for free burgers. There wasn't any silverware to get the food so the girl behind me asked how I did it I said "Magic... I did it with my mind." She smirked and I teased her a bit before telling her. She sat across from us and I asked where she went to school, started some fluff talk. She asked where I'm from and I said "You're asking too many questions, I gotta keep my identity concealed." Later I asked where she's from. She teased "Now you're asking too many questions" but she told me anyways. She asked me where I was from and I said I couldn't tell her because her dad was in the military. Banter, I was experimenting with creating some mystery and flirting. I went to get more food and she left while I was up. I went outside and got her number. Didn't have my phone on me so she took mine. I told her to tell me hers, I'd remember it. Her jaw dropped, girls seem to think that's amazing or something. I said "If it's special enough, I won't forget it" Gave her my number. Texted a week after but no reply. Either I remembered wrong or she lost interest. Next!
10-10 - Getting out of my head - I left my class to get some ****ing water because the class was dry af. I was falling asleep ykno. I seen a girl in the hall. We locked eyes for a couple seconds. I looked away and looked back and she was still looking at me. I was in my head super heavy though because I hadn't approached any girls recently. So I kept walking and didn't say anything on the way back. I saw her when I left class, but there were people around and I chickened out - giving in to the fear that people around us would judge me - gotta get over that. I was about to leave the building but "rejection is better than regret" so I decided to go back and talk to her just so I wouldn't feel bad about not doing it later. I asked her name. She told me. I said "You have pretty eyes, [name], I had to tell you that." "Thank you" Me: "What are you working on?" Her: "CompSci" Me: "Do you mind if I sit?" She moved her stuff for me, fluff talk ensued. I was really nervous. But I got the number. Glad I did that. I asked if she wanted my number (I'm trynna exchange numbers nowadays instead of just get theirs) and she said "You'll text me". I'm thinking: "Oh?? Confident ting aren't we?". I said "Maybe" with a smirk and bounced.
10-10 - "Be an alpha" - marvinlfloresq - Then later that day I hit the gym. There's a girl in there that I always see, I've introduced myself to her about a month ago and we exchange small talk from time to time. Today I asked her if she does 2-a-days because I see her in there if I go in the morning or if I go in the evening. She said she doesn't have anything else to do. Teased her about that and went to do my sets. I asked my friends if she has a bf because there's a guy who's always in there when she is that talks to her, that's why I haven't really pursued her. They didn't know. She said something when I walked by but I kept walking - I didn't know she was talking to me. I turned around and said "Were you talking to me?". Her: "Yeah" and told me about a bat they were trying to catch in the hall (Yup, a bat in the gym. Wild). This is an interesting development because she spoke to me first this time. So I decided to put the nail in the coffin myself. I came back and we crossed paths again. I asked if she caught the bat yet, she laughed. And I went in for the kill (cue La Roux): "Since you have all this free time.... I was wondering if I could get your number and we get to know each other a little more sometime" (I need to get better at asking for the number and not ask for the number). Bag secured. I didn't have my phone on me again so I told her to just tell it to me. She was amazed too, but she said if I forget she'll see me around and give it to me. When I left, I joked with her, screwing up her number as if I had forgotten.
10-10 - Confusing - I was waiting for the bus. There was a girl standing beside me but it was kinda dark, I couldn't tell if she was cute or not. But I went for it, asked what bus she was waiting for and fluff ensued. Next bus was coming in 20 mins. Fast forward: I asked if she watched sports, she said nah. I told her the last game I went to was the first game of freshman year. She said the last game she went to was 4 years ago with her bf. I was like dammit girl... we've been talking for 15 minutes. You couldn't have said that earlier?? But we kept talking, got on the bus and she said "So you asked me if I'm seeing anyone but what about you?" I said nah. More chit chat, she said something about some food she made and I responded "That sounds good... I want that" She said "Yeah come over I'll make it". Could be an innocent/friendly... Idk. She waited for me to get off the bus. I said "Aw you waited for me that's so sweet" sarcastically. When it was time to depart, I asked for her number. Shoot the shot anyways. She gave it to me. I said "Cool, well it was nice to meet you", gave her a hug. Her: "Yeah I cant wait to see you again soon!". Me: "Yeah" smiled and dipped. Curious what you guys think about this one... her bf is overseas rn. I was originally thinking "Oh she has a bf, next" but she gave some IOI's after saying it so..
10-11 Didn't approach today. Busy with school work. Hoping tomorrow presents some opportunities so I can keep the momentum.
Stay tuned.
