About the one before that one: Take steps back, give her room, then come back in.
Which girl? HB Destiny?
Anyway let me get at least a FEW days updated...
3/17/12
Alright so...game time! Woke up early and drove on over to the Philly airport and landed in Atlanta, GA sometime around noon and was on the road to Josh's house at around 1PM.
Arrived there a little before 2PM, and found that LearningSlowly lives in a pretty nice house...his parents were nice and warm and his dogs were fun to mess around with. My mom came in to check the place out and thank his parents for having me over, and soon after she left we were on our way out.
We went over to a burrito joint and met two cute girls that he knows. One was kinda cute but we didn't make anything of it, rather just talked and ate. Afterwards we walked around his shopping strip and started meeting girls here and there. I remember LearningSlowly's standard line consisted of something along the lines of St. Patrick's day and people not wearing green (a color we both were wearing).
He opened the first girl, who mumbled a bit and just left, which was a bit odd, then I FOLLOWED (following their path in the way of mine), not CHASED (changing direction to follow their path...lol), a set of two girls into a store. Made some small talk, can't remember their names, probably coulda gotten the cute one's number but it's not like I'd be able to do anything with it...
I really beat myself up for not approaching this slim, big-breasted teenager with her mom...I feel like I could have separated the two with a nice approach. Learning had a tendency of finding girls that were there with their parents...namely their dads...so not much else went on there.
Went back to his place and played some Call of Duty and looked up girls on Facebook while we considered a time to go to the mall and meet ohbe.
We left to the mall around 5 or so and I was actually surprised...my mall seemed to have a lot more attractive girls than this one. The mall had a very high number of black people, the girls I didn't find attractive and the guys I found were often gay...
Nevertheless we met up with ohbe and ran some approaches. I'll analyze the two of them a little bit:
LearningSlowly: Very ballsy but occasionally relies on the same opener. Pretty good at letting conversation flow but doesn't always take it in the right direction.
ohbe: Quite shy. Willing to learn but needs to take baby steps. Can open but ejects way too early, needs to persist through awkwardness.
I myself opened...two or three girls there, with one that I would have approached had I seen her again, and I remember mentioning her to Learning, some blonde with her friend. The first was an attractive Indian girl, conversation went well but she had a boyfriend so that was done.
The second was a set of two girls, one hot the other ugly. Terrible reaction. I asked her name when I caught up to her on the escalator and she PHYSICALLY MOVED AWAY FROM ME and used her friend as a barrier. After a little bit of talking she lowered her guard and told me her name, but also thought the way I approached her was creepy...ok...
There may have been a third girl but I don't remember. I recall trying to get ohbe to use the FBI line, which he may have had success with if he had actually used it
We ate, said goodbye to ohbe, then headed back home for a bit as LearningSlowly became informed about a few parties. So we played some more Call of Duty then headed out at around 9ish.
At the party I met a bunch of cool dudes, people like Alec, Alden, Richard, and Igor, among others. I also met a girl that would be on The Walking Dead, a show I really love, so that was cool. After looking around I found my targets; HB Allie and HB Erica, and since HB Allie has a boyfriend (Alden) I decided to take a whack at HB Erica...
So first it was kinda slow for me, because I didn't know anybody and couldn't relate to anything. But after a while I got into the groove, and I started talking to people and asking questions about the place as they smoked outside. Alec was somebody I particularly liked, he seems like an easygoing and fun dude. We took a tequila shot, which was the first time I had ever had tequila...was expecting it to be a lot worse than it was.
Kept chatting people up, had some early conversation with HB Erica and at one point I tried to get her to sit next to me in front of the TV, but she either declined or pretended not to hear me...I can't remember.
Alec got out a beer pong table, and yes, as Learning said I was dying to play, because I have a pretty good track record playing beer pong and wanted to have some fun. It was around this time that I met Grace and HB Erica would soon leave. I remember I was sitting around the smoker's table out front and asked her to come join me. Her reply was "in a minute" and at that moment I knew nothing was going to happen, specifically my thought was "no you're f***in not...". She simply walked away from the party with her friends without saying goodbye and that was it. I didn't really care what happened at this party now that my target was gone.
So now I really tried to play beer pong and have some fun and was having great conversations with the guys at the smoker's table - mostly about whether or not girls at their schools were prude, which turned into a big sex debate.
Now I gotta be honest, around this time Grace started flirting with me. She was touching me and honing in on my every word, giving me her full attention. So I excuse myself from the table to find LearningSlowly and tell him that his girl wants to be kissed and tell him to hop on it.
I see him try to bring her away when a guy friend comes in and c0ckblocks him with the WORST TIMING EVER and asks if Grace wants to go to some waffle house or something. She says yes and leaves Learning's side almost immediately.
I tell him he needs to take her to the move private side of the house and just kiss her, no need for words. But at this point LearningSlowly is feeling a little defeated and just chills out for a bit. Soon-after we decide to leave, so I say my goodbyes to the people I met that I liked and we were off.
In the car LearningSlowly starts analyzing the night, and this is where I told him that I think he needs to naturalize his actions a little bit more. Too much thinking, not enough doing, I know how he is because I had been like that when I was starting out learning about pick up.
We get home around 1 in the morning and play some more Xbox before we go upstairs, talk a little bit about the night and fun we had after meeting each other from the forum, then go to bed.
Wow this took forever to update...f*** the other days for now...I'm tired. Peace.
