Gladiators!::Approach Anxiety Competition!

[PrettyBoyAJ]

Well I did that.

I was off campus today and was stopping for some food.

At the store I asked the girl who was handling my food to let me have her a number. She gave me her number and a smile as we exchanged names.

She was a HB6. Nothing special. But I need one more in the next couple hours.

Guinea- you have dance classes and generally try to be funny in a brotherly type of way it seems with some teasing (too friendly and nice). This weeks task for you is to be Confident, strong and emit masculinity. don't joke. Act like you're a natural born leader. If you want a girl be direct about it and tell it how it is. "It was great dancing with you. I'm going to dinner friday night, you should come."

The dance thing unfortunately was only a one time event otherwise I would've attempted to get those numbers. I couldn't really do much this week with exams and homework monopolizing my time, then again I could've put in more effort. The ones I did attempt I failed pretty badly.


So in eco class there was this asian girl in front of me. I noticed she had the chapters from the e-book printed out. I didn't have the e-book so i figured I could ask if I can copy her version and take it further from there...

*Taps shoulders*

Me: Hey, Sorry to bother you but I was wondering if you would let me copy your version of the e-book.

Her: What?!

Me: *leans in*(big mistake) *Repeats previous statement except a lil more rushed* (another one)

Her: Uhhh don't you have your own copy that you can print out online???

Me: I would but I currently don't have the money to pay for it.

Her: Then how are you keeping up with the class?!?!?

Me: By listening to the lectures

Her: *Turns her head away*

Me: Thank you for your time




Yea I got *****ed out pretty badly. -_-


I decided to do a random approach this is how it went....so I approached this average female

Me: *Very nervously* Hey, do you any good stores that wear, I mean sell men's clothing?

Her: Huh?

Me: *Repeats statement louder and quicker*

Her: Well my BOYFRIEND (heavy emphasis) usually shops around Old Navy.

Me: Ok Thanks *too embrassed to continue* *walks away*




Ugh this is so hard. Yea I failed this week's task pretty badly. What's even worse is that I usually form the correct solution or method after the fact. Like the first girl she was playing poker in her computer while in class so i could've addressed that instead of asking for the notes. I was also thinking of approaching this random girl on the bus but I didn't know what to open up with and the question came up in my head as soon as she left. Regardless of whether or not I am eliminated I will still post my approaches. You live and you learn...

 

[PrettyBoyAJ]

^^ I would have said your boyfriend is a bum for wearing old navy.

 

[AAAgent]

neg, pow pow, AJ and Deicide all have one elimination this week.

Neg- you only got and completed that on HB7 approach which was good but you gotta make more approaches.

AJ- you only listed one approach with details. You have to be detailed once again!

Pow POw - you didn't post and what you did post was a conversation with a guy on a ferry! I know it's bad for you in Japan right now. It's all good, you still have one more elimination before you're out.

Deicide- Good work on the number close earlier this week but you needed 2 more.

Guinea- You gotta get out more like me. The more you're out in different places, the mroe chances you'll have at making attempts.

What's even worse is that I usually form the correct solution or method after the fact. .... You live and you learn...

I know exactly what you mean, bro. Trying to think of an opener is really tough. Believe it or not, it doesn't have much to do with being more receptive of your surroundings. It all depends on your comfort and expectations. The less you expect from a girl you see, the better your opener will be. I'll get into some examples in detail in my posts from this weekend.

I still get stuck in thoughts of what to approach with, but it gets easier the more you do it. But it's great to see that you're realizing where your mistakes are and understanding the problem.

 

[PrettyBoyAJ]

So is the timer up??? It's not Monday here yet, I got one last chance, Let me go outside and camp or something lol.


-EDIT-

Well I decided to go outside and saw this girl get out her car.

AJ: So where you comin from
HB6: The grocery store
AJ: Shoot, I need some snacks, What did you get me?
HB6: I don't even know you, *giggles*
AJ: Well my name is AJ what is yo name?
HB6: *HB Darkskinned (yuck )* She puts her groceries back down in the trunk to talk to me*
AJ: So what year are you?
HB6: Sophomore what about you
AJ: Junior (I'm really a Senior but this year was supposed to be my junior year. I say junior because I don't want girls to think I'm too old as I'm only 20)
HB6: O what is your major
AJ: Accounting, how about you?
HB6: Pre-Law
AJ: That sound's very interesting. I guess if I ever need legal help I can call you for some advice, What is your number ( I hand her my phone before she even replies)
HB6: *She puts her number in my phone:
AJ: Nice to meet you and I will talk to you later.


I probably will never use this number.. Just had to do this for the competition. From now on however I am only going for girls I am attracted too.

Friday Night 2# closes

I technically finished week's task. So Friday night, got 2 numbers at a bar. I dunno if these count cause they weren't exactly cold approaches, let alone one of them was from a dude (he was chill tho).

Met up some peeps at a bar/club. Really cute spanish chick who I gave EC to. Didn't talk to her though cause I was chillin with my friends. Turns out my boy used to work on her floor and asked if I wanted to meet her. I said I would talk to her at some point. My friends and I grabbed some Vietnamese food, then left and walked by that same bar/club. She was outside with some dude and they were about to get something to eat. I walked ahead of them and was talking to her.

This bar is chill, I know the bouncer there and the bartender which definitely builds my social proof. We go inside meet some ppls.. my boys favorite line to get a hook is goin up to a group of chicks and saying "my boy negz right here thinks your mad georgous." Shvt works all the time. I tried it twice for him once and girl got weirded out when he approached her. Must be the way I say this.

HB7.5 meets up with us. Dunno how it came up, but she was tellin my friend and I how she almost got into 2 fights with girls at a bar. I dunno why, but I found this shvt sexy. So I did the opposite of what I would do, I started neggin her about it and saying some ****y shvt, and funny. We got really close talkin with each other and had a lot of stuff in common. Then somethin happened that diverted her attention everytime. I don't wanna get into what it was, but she definitely had some anger toward someone else that had to get out. Sucks, cuz I wanted to kiss close this chick, so I'll next that until I see her again.

I talked to some dude at the bar and we were talkin about moving into the city, we lived around the same area. Joked around and sayin that he should invite me to his wedding so I can hook up with his fiancees bride's maids. Got his number to chill in Brooklyn sometime and meet his friends. And then it turned out he was friends with HB7.5, wtf small world.

Sat back down to HB7.5, flirted with her some more, but I was kinda annoyed with what went down earlier. This is when I saw a 4-set of filipino chicks. I dunno if it was the right amount of buzz or I just felt good (probably both):

Poison by Bill Biv Devoe was playin
Negz: Yo you ladies are p-p-p-poison
They all laugh
Negz: Where you ladies from?
HB8.5: I'm from New Jersey -- answered first and prompty IOI
Negz: ::weird look:: Jersey??? Wtf
Go on making her friends laugh, then let them know I'm part filipino and get them laughing a lot. I think I winked at HB8.5 at some point cuz next thing I knew we were exchanging kisses on eachothers cheek. #closed her cuz her friends were cawkblocks.

Fellas, this **** is gettin easier and smoother everytime. I still need to work on my cold approaches just to get more comfortable with it, sober-wise. Anyways, my bro # closed a chick at the mall today which was sick. He thanked me and said it was all because I convinced him too. I told him, all I did was point out the IOI, he did the rest. Having a wingman helps.

Does this qualify for this week's task?

This weeks task:

You must Cold approach 4 girls during the day (none of this getting a number from a guy crap, wtf!). you must attempt to number close all of them but the fourth must be successful. You must get #4's number or you automatically fail this week's challenge. If you don't attempt 4 number closes you also fail.

Good luck!

I believe gray is the only one that can survive this week's elimination and still make it to next week.

 

[PrettyBoyAJ]

^ LOL, Thanks for the motivation, I'm trying to get this challenge done today.

 

[AAAgent]

haha AJ if you fail #4 your out for good. just FYI, in case you want to take your time lol.

REPPED!!


I'm getting fired up! Lol


LET'S GOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

 

[PrettyBoyAJ]

Well I got one number today off a cold approach and I need critique. Ill post when I am at a cpu

 

[PrettyBoyAJ]

I just got a another number. So thats 2 LOL

Approach #1
I need some critique on this approach
-----------------

I saw this light skin girl infront of me talking to some people I knew so once me made eye contact I waved her to come to me and she came.

AJ: So are you coming to any of my fraternities events this week
HB7: umm... ya... maybe...
AJ: Aww that doesn't sound definite, Say it with some confidence
HB7: giggles, I said I would be coming.
AJ: Ok thhen, you look familiar... Where have I seen you from
HB7: I have seen you on the bus many times
AJ: O I knew you look familiar, My name is AJ, whats yours
HB7: HBLIGHTSKINGIRL
AJ: Nice to meet you, Where do you stay at.
HB&: she names her apartment, you
AJ: I stay in (my apartment)

We then proceed to talk about how much we pay for each apartment and she tells me how she is moving to a different apartment. We then discuss me teaching her how to swim because she doesn't know how to as well as our majors. We talk for about ten minutes. Then I bring back my fraternities event again.

AJ: So your going to be there right?
HB7: Yes
AJ: You might need a reminder, Let me get your number
HB7: You think you are slick, You did all this to get my number?
AJ: *Hands her my phne*
HB7: Are you telling me or asking me.
AJ: I'm telling you, You can either put it in or not put it in
HB7: She puts her number in my phone and I said I was going to hit her up later in the week.

What did I do wrong? Because she expected me to ask for her number? Should I just ask her for the number without all the extra reminding her about the event bullcrap???

Approach #2
----------------

I'm at the cafteria and see a Light Skinned HB6 I had seen before.

I come up to her and ask her if shes coming to any of my frats events. She said she would if I let her know. I asked her for her number and she gave it to me. I told her I will let her know and we could hang sometime.

Does this count as an approach?

All feedback is welcomed.

I'm in a rush now but thats basically all of it in a nutshell.

 

[PrettyBoyAJ]

Bump for critique

 

[flint]

Omg man, so I've been going out and getting all of these numbers with you guys and I'm getting all flakes and one person just out right told me she wasn't interested.

I'm gonna drop out of this because yeah I'm getting numbers but its fake, but good luck to all of you guys.

 

[Masculinity]

I believe gray is the only one that can survive this week's elimination and still make it to next week.

:trouble: Ummm...excuse you, kiddo...you have been inhaling cleaning products too much lately because you forgot to add my name to your posting ^.

GTP, you better get your game straight cause you got some serious competition going your way. :box:

I'm going to post the details on my pick ups as soon as I have time. I studied for five hours straight for my exam today and I have a pile of work, but I must make time for my hoes. I also got an A in my Statistics test. Hard work pays off and I'm going to prove this area of life isn't the exception!

 

[PrettyBoyAJ]

I have a date with the girl in Approach One on Thurday. Just saw her at one of my bruh's get togethers.

Aww....


Well...now there are 7. Let's see who will make it to The Final Four.

 

[AAAgent]

i did not mean gray was the only one that would be completing the task this week.

I meant that gray is the only person out of everyone remaining that has no eliminations added to his name and as most of you have atleast one as of not finishing last week's task, that means he is most likely to survive this week even if he fails.
