First post, love the site has been great inspiration.
A little background - I'm 36, reasonably attractive (8.5 on hotornot, for what it's worth) and have been out of an LTR for a couple of years. I meet a lot of people mainly through clubs/bars though quality and longevity can be variable. I get bored quick . I'm much better at taking advantage of natural openings, so am working on the cold approaches somewhat.
Last night I was at a local club, some good eye contact with a very attractive 20something. Later, I'm standing near the dance floor with my back to her and her friend, smoking. I feel a tap on my back, it's her asking for a light.
Me: That's the oldest trick in the book, you think I'm gonna fall for that?
Her: Smile, expectant look.
Me: What's your name?
Her: Sarah
Me: How's your evening?
Her: I'm wankered and going to bed (for the non UK folk, she means she's drunk as hell)
Me: Riiiightttt....
She stumped me, so I ended the interaction and 2 minutes later she and her friend were gone.
Guess I could have played on the innuedno, or just gone straight for the number and wished her good night?
Any pointers as to how I could have handled this better would be great! Thanks!
