Hello friends
I have some experience on PUA and (really) eager to learn it more. Currently I am getting number closes but most of them turn out to be flakes. So I thought it would be a good idea to post the last three number closed sets and ask you guys for feedback. The first one was indirect set, second one was direct set and the third one was semi-direct set but all ended up being flakes.
By the way, they are all daygame sets.
Set 1:
Situation:
Me and a friend were standing at a crossing and were trying to figure out our way to a club...I saw a tall blonde just walking past us...
Me: Excuse me.... (Without any mischievous intentions at all)...(She turns towards me. Now I see her face, she smiles at me and the 'wicked' me instantly wakes up) Do you know where XXXXX club is ?
HB: Sorry, I have no idea I am not from here....
Me: Oh, Where are you from ?
HB: XXXXX
Me: really ?...where did you get this accent from ?
HB: I am studying English here....
Me: That's really cool...
HB: Where are you from ?...
Me: yyyyy
HB: Really ?....but you don't have that accent at all....
Me: Do you know any other people from yyyyy ?
HB: Yes...they all have a typical accent...
Me: You know...you have a nice dimple on your chick.....
HB: (laughing)...yes...
Me: It looks sweet....(she is laughing)(pause)...where are you going now ?
HB: To meet my friends....
Me: oh cool....I actually gotta go too...you seemed really friendly and sweet....how about we
catch up for a coffee sometimes next week ? (pause) So I am gonna shoot you a text....
(and I hand over my phone...)
HB: (Takes my phone and enters her number, gives it back to me....)
Me: (with big smile) All right see ya....have a good one....
HB: you too....
Next day I text her...and no reply.
Set 2:
Situation:
I was walking by a local park with a friend and suddenly spotted a beautiful blonde sitting inside. I walk up to her to open the set...
Me: Excuse me....can I tell you something really quickly ?
HB: (Looks at me)
Me: I just saw you from there, and I thought you have a rally cool style....I had to come to say you hi...
HB: (with smile)....Hi....
Me: What are you doing now ?
HB: Reading....(she had an eBook reader on her lap...)
Me: Where are you from....you look like you are from....
HB: (Before I finished )..I am from Germany....
Me: (me with smile and a look of surprise)...I was going to say UK...(she did not have any German accent)....because you have a very different accent...
Me: You look like a tourist....
HB: Yes, I am on working holiday.....
Me: Oh, How long have you been here ?
HB: About 4 months now....
Me: Oh, 4 months....(with a tone that 4 months is really long, because I live in a town that is seriously 'busy' but hardly takes 4 days to see the whole town)...
Me: What sort of work have you been doing ?
HB: I have been babysitting....
Me: Ha ha ha.....hope they didn't bother you much....
HB: (with smile) No, they are annoying sometimes....
Me: Did they throw you on the ground and jump on you ?....
HB: (Laughing)
Me: ...and then...started pulling your hair ? (she has got really nice hair)
HB: (Excitingly) Yes! they do that...
Me: I used to babysit my cousin's daughter...not for money, but you know.... (I raise my
shoulder) (this one was for DHV...)
Me:.....do you like travelling ?....
HB: yeah...I love to travel....
Me: What are the places have you been ?
HB: Here....
Me: (with smile) What...only here..? You are a bad German...you are a pathetic German....most
of German friends I know travelled half the world by now.....(I am smiling the whole time)
(purpose: neg)
HB: ..(smiling)...
Me: I love travelling....I just been to Hong Kong, Singapore (which is true and the purpose was: DHV)....you see new things and it sort of opens up your mind......
HB: (Excited) True...I see my friends who never travelled...they are so stuck within their
family...
Me: What's that (pointing at her tooth gem)
HB: (Laughingly)...its just an ornament.....
Me: (In a heavier voice) I really gotta go, I gotta get back to my friend....he must be here
some where, I don't see him....(I am actually looking for my friend)....
Me and my friends are going for a coffee this Wednesday...you
should join us....
HB: Are you going for coffee now ? (gives an 'unwilling' look)
Me: no no, not now... on Wed ? Do you have a local number I will text you then ? (I hand over
my phone to her...)
HB: (Takes my phone...punches in her number, adds that to my contacts, without me asking to
add her name in my contact list)...
Me: My name is XXXXX by the way.....
HB: My name is XXXXX.....Is that really your name ?
Me: Yes.....
HB: That is so cute....I can't believe it....
Me: (I don't give any reaction, just smile...) C ya later....
-------------------------------------------------
Few hours later I texted her:
"Hi XXXXX
It was really nice meeting you today...
"
I got a response from her on the next day evening along the following lines:
"Yes it was really nice meeting you too...your name is so cute...I really can't believe it...
"
My response:
"I can't believe that my name is getting more attention than me... :p
Anyway I really enjoyed your cool and friendly vibe while talking to you...so how is this for proposition: we go for a quick coffee on Wed ?"
and....I did not get any further reply....
Set 3:
Situation:
I was walking towards my flat from after university, I saw a really cute Asian girl walking towards my direction...
Me: Hi, excuse me...
HB: Yes ? (with a sort of 'mixed' and unsure facial expression)
Me: Do you know where the nearest McDonald is ?
HB: Ummm.....(trying to think where the nearest McDonald is)
Me: (before she comes back with any answer) Sorry I was lying, I just saw you and I thought
you are really cute and I wanted to say hi....
HB: (Instantly her facial expression changes, she starts smiling, turns towards me. We are now
facing each other)
me: My name is xxxxx what's your name ? I stretched my hand towards her for a hand shake...
HB: I am XXX XXX. (and she does a very light hand shake)
me: Oh, cool. But your name sounds Chinese, do you have an English name ?
HB: Yes, but they are the same...
me: oh, cool.....where are you going now ?
HB: I am going to my dance class..
me: you look like an English major student...
HB: Yes, I am studying English at xxxxxx university (she names a local university)
me: I am doing comp-sci there...(I truly am doing comp-sci at the same uni)
me: How long have you been here at xxxxx (name of the place where I live)?
HB: Almost 3 yars
me: 3 years....that's quite long. I have been here for like 1.5 years almost......
Do you know there is this cool ice-cream parlour down that way next to the Turkish food
centre? (I point my finger towards the location.) They make some really cool ice-creams.
HB: Oh, the one on the xxxxx street ?...(I nod my head)...Hmm I have been there...
me: I have been craving an icecream from there recently.....you should come along..... (she
does not reply anything)
me: So what sort of dance form are you into ?
HB: No, its just for loosing weight...(that reminds her of her dance class and she looks at
her watch)
HB: I really am getting late...(and shows indications to leave the set)....
me: No, listen...(she stops)....I am going to ask for your number....
HB: No, I don't know...
me: You can put in a real number of a fake number.... you could be this guy
is cool or he is crap and I don't wanna see him again....(then I hand over my phone to
her..)
HB: (Takes my phone puts her number in, and adds it as a new contact, types in her name...and hands the phone over to me)...I gotta go....
me: (With smile) See ya...bye...
So what do you guys think where am I going wrong ? or any other suggestions ?
