Plinco's cold approach journal

[Plinco]

I had some extra time today, so I went out window shopping. I went to a department store, and saw two girls in the clothing section that I wanted to approach, but as I walked towards them, I wasn't in the right mindset; I chickened out/lowered my testosterone level. Walked around the store, with a coward mindset. I did the best thing to do in that situation, and left after walking around a bit. I was pretty angry with myself. I went to the mall, and decided to redeem myself by approaching an attractive girl from about 100 feet away. I walked up to her and smiled and said:

"You have good taste in clothes"

Her: looking shy/shocked' "uh... I'm sorry"

"Don't be. You look organized too, I see how you are folding those clothes as you're putting them back."

Her: smiles, still looks nervous "thank you"

I decided to break off contact right then.


There were two other girls who were walking through the mall as I was texting one of my customers. I went looking for them a minute later but couldn't find them.

That's eight cold approaches so far this year. I'm going to try other venues and step it up.

I currently weigh 165, with 10-15 percent body fat. I'm 5'10''

Very good.

For 2024:

I made $57,105.75

That's on the low side for a bigger quality but could be passable in a smaller town.

bought a 2004 Chevy Avalanche. The truck is old but in great condition.

It is good that the truck is in great condition but a 2004 truck is unlikely to impress women. It's a small improvement over the previous truck.

That's on the low side for a bigger quality but could be passable in a smaller town.

I live on the edge of a small city. Originally, it was mostly rural, but there's been a lot of urban sprawl in the last five years. The median household income ranges from 43K to 65K, depending on the town within a 25 mile radius, excluding the beaches.

I bought my house in 2019 for 150K, and now it's appraised at 280K-300K.

I bought my house in 2019 for 150K, and now it's appraised at 280K-300K.

In 2019, finding a house in Dallas, TX would have been nearly impossible that price.

Your price appreciation has been good but it's difficult to sell houses in this market and take profit.

I live on the edge of a small city.

Areas under 200,000 in population can be tough for dating for 25+ adults who are no longer in school.

Did a cold approach today and got the cold shoulder.

I'm going to experiment with Bumble and Tinder, but I only have two halfway decent pictures to post and I don't think that's going to fly.

Edit:

Update. I had to go to settings in Tinder and change the age range to 18-25. I'm still swiping left on most of these girls. The good thing about getting older is that you know what works for you and what doesn't.

I went through Bumble and reached a limit, swiped left on most of those.

On Tinder, out of the 100-ish, I swiped left on all except around 10 or so. Then there weren't any more ladies 18-25 in my area. I'll give it a week and see what happens.
