LMAO

Got a girl's # of facebook easy, game was tight at first. Anyways, here's the text.

Me: Hey sexy tattoo girl!!

1 min later

HB: Hey hey whats up?

5 min

Me: Rockin out to some sublime with my buddies. How was your weekend?

2 min

HB: It was great!! Went by too fast as always. What about yours?

6 min

Me: I know what you mean. I was in XXXXXX with some friends, wish I didnt have to come back

2 min

Her: I bet. It's only Monday and I'm already ready for next weekend

10 min

Me: I know!! I have such a busy week too!! What do you like todo for fun?

4 min

Her: Anything and everything

So at this point I didn't know what to say and kinda fucked up...

10 min

Me: Lol :) youre gonna have to be more specific so I know if i wanna hang out with you. I like to go to concerts, go out with friends, smoke weed and watch trippy movies, etc..

10 min

Her: How old are you?

I interpreted this as her insulting me which was a total insecure thing to do.

2 min

Me: 24

10 min

Me: Why?

1 min

Her: just curious

4 min

Me: Okay well dont quiz me, i finished school years ago. You didn't answer my question so I assume you don't like doing any of the same things as me.....

No Reply..

I obviously came across as being an asshole with my insecure response to her asking my age. Also fucked up by listing my things I like to do, I believe.

Whatever. Anyone think of any way to salvage this or should I abandon?

I actually think the 'smoking weed' part killed your game since it was immediatly followed with 'how old are you', which was kind of a strange question at that moment.

Don't tell women you want to pick up you do drugs unless you are completely certain they won't mind.

Just my two cents..

(should have just asked her out and trapped her with her own words ''anything and everything'', if she declines just challenge her with those words ''oh I thought you liked to do anything and everything'')

don't stop contacting her indeffinately, just give it about a week, stay in contact with her, but don't expect anything from her, meet more girls, never one at a time, don't talk about yourself or try to impress, focus almost completely on her, and things that are not yourself, don't give out information about yourself unless she works for it and trades, try to focus on the following order

-put her in a good mood that will cause her to open up
-once she is in good mood, then get to know her

trying to get to know her without the emotional stimulation first, will be like trying to pry open a bank vault with your bare hands, unless she finds something else really valuable about you (your looks), too much getting to know her is boring, not enough of getting to know her and being boring and she won't be able to take you serious and you are just her entertainment, find a middle ground, a push to the pull

also facebook, and the phone are not a good place to work on building rapport, use them purely to get meetups with girls, invite them out to do something fun, not much game is required besides the thing being enticing to them, and they feel comfortable enough with you that they know you won't kill them or anything (the benifits outweigh the possible costs), if that is the case and she still makes excuses to not come out with you, just assume you are not her type and place your focus on other girls as that girl will just be a waste of your time, still contact her here and there just incase something changes, but certainly, don't make that girl one of your main leads (a primary target, she should be on the back burner)

GOOD LUCK

I've got to admit that your text-game was god-aweful, are you still gonna see her, or will You be stuck with facebook / text ''gaming''? (As in, do You see her at work etc...)
Whenever you resort to text-gaming, and you wanna be indirect, you have to keep it playful with viable respond information rather then asking questions, it does indeed feel like you wanna do ur best to get into her E-pants. Instead of asking direct questions, make her wonder about You. if she's really interested in You when you got her number, she'll respond positively.

I would've went with something like this (I'm not the best text-gamer either, I hate it)


You: * Beep bzzzz Beep ''Error - error''. *

Her: ? Whats up? :P

You: Just a quick description of how I'm feeling right now, I should never go along with my mates ever again! ''Sigh''.

Her: What happend? :o

You: 2 really good options here - 1) Tell her about it // 2) Use this to invite her indirectly.

Examples:

1) Well.. I went to ''Insert club here'' with my pal (name), He came up with this brilliant idea on who could drink most tequila shots in 5 minutes, winner would get 10 dollars. I did win however, I woke up in the middle of nowhere, having to pay 25 dollars for a cab. (You DHV yourself because You like to do 'extreme' things and that you won the bet), it'll make her giggle aswell.

2) Ugh! I cannot tell You right now as I'm still trying to make sure that I dont get back home half naked. I'll tell You about it next time we meet! :P


Her: Omg, that sounds so funny ^_^, How do you guys come up with this?


You: (Insert story here) + question about her.


Her: (Answer to last question)

You: (Answer) + say something along the lines like, Well I'm heading off to the (Insert here) wanna join along?


I think this'd have given you a much better response from her, make sure it's funny / cocky / playful.
