This was inspired by a scenario that was outlined in this thread. Long story short: this is what can happen if an AFC tries to ****block, and succeeds because you were unprepared.
As a true DJ, you should always be prepared, especially for a common situation like this. You should be able to see it coming from a mile away and be a few moves ahead of the other guy. And believe me, if you're ready, there's a good chance that you can turn it around in your favor - it's easier than it sounds, and here's how you do it.
First of all, there are several points you should keep in mind about a situation like this:
1. BE ABSOLUTELY CALM. Act like nothing's wrong, you're on top of your game, and everything's going exactly the way you want it to.
2. DON'T GET UPSET, irritated, defensive, or do anything that demonstrates an attitude other than the one outlined above.
3. ACT LIKE YOU'RE HAVING A BLAST, like what this guy who challenged you just said just made your day! Have fun with it, show her nothing's wrong.
4. BE REAL ABOUT IT, don't act like you think he just said something funny and obnoxious, believe he did, because that's essentially the truth.
5. TURN IT AROUND, and make it absolutely clear to her that the person next to her is a man, and the one challenging him with stupid claims is nothing but a jealous boy.
Like i said earlier, turning this around is far easier than it sounds. This prick is expecting to throw you off balance and embarass you by pulling this stunt. And the girl immediately looks to see your reaction. This is the deciding moment. What do you do? The last thing they expect you to, of course!
Pulls out a copy of Sun Tzu's Art of War and flips it open to Chapter 5. Every DJ should own a copy of this book and know it off by heart.
"... in battle, one engages with the orthodox and gains victory through the unorthodox. Thus one who excels at sending forth the unorthodox is as inexhaustible as Heaven, as unlimited as Yangtze and Yellow rivers..."
Brilliant, isn't he? Master the unorthodox and you'll be beyond defeat. So you're sitting on the couch with the girl, and this prick is standing in front of you with a grin on his face after saying what he did. Once again, what do you do?
LAUGH. Look him right at the eyes and let out a loud, hearty laugh like what he said just made your day! Most people have been taught since childhood that if someone laughs at them, they just did something stupid. This guy was NOT expecting this. SHE was not expecting this. And now he's wondering how he could have done something so stupid, and trying to decide whether to get embarassed or defensive, either of which will demonstrate his weakness and your superiority. And she's looking at you in amazement, wondering what you're thinking (all of a sudden, you're mysterious)! Meanwhile, you are using the laugh as a chance to give you a moment to think of a way to floor the two of them.
Done laughing? Great, they're both watching you now. Time for some C&F! The guy's self-esteem is hanging on by a thread right about now, and it's time to pull out the butcher knife, chop it off, watch him drop to the ground, and stomp on him to squash him like the maggot he is! There is a number of things you can say to achieve the result you want, but i would keep it funny, short, simple and definitely to the point. Try saying something like this (with a laugh of course):
"Aw damn, guess i made it pretty obvious since even someone who's never seduced a woman in his life can tell?"
BOOM. This guy was just laughed at and embarassed in front of a girl. At this moment, he's likely wondering why he was stupid enough to do this in the first place, and would give anything for a chance to just disappear. The girl, on the other hand, now sees him for a boy, and sees you for a man. You're calm. You're in control. You're not ashamed of your sexuality. You're not threatened by another man's remarks. You have clearly demonstrated superiority over him. You're not embarassed, you're having a blast, and because you don't think there's anything wrong with you trying to seduce her, neither does she!
Problem solved, game over, you won. How the guy reacts doesn't really matter, because he won't react like a DJ, since no DJ would have done something like this in the first place. So whatever he does will put him at a disadvantage. If he keeps on blabbering, excuse yourself like whatever he's saying has no importance, and proceed with the girl. So how exactly do you do that? Well, continue as you otherwise would have, but i suggest a slight change of scenery to make it easier for her to move on and make sure she doesn't get embarassed. Go someplace else with her, and get her away from that scene, and most importantly, that guy. Invite her to go to the kitchen for some drinks, out to the balcony to watch the stars, whatever. Just away from there. And him.
DISCLAIMER: The instructions provided here aren't meant to be followed to the letter. They are simply here to give you a general idea of how a situation like this is to be dealt with. ALWAYS adapt everything you see on these boards to suit your particular situation: if the person in question is a good friend and you know he didn't mean any harm, then there's obviously no reason to be rude about it. On the other hand, if it's someone you barely know, and he's trying to steal your girl, by all means feel free to bury him.
