Missed opportunity to probe further and gain rapport off of a shared reading experience.
Quote:
Have you guys ever been called out on your game? or have any similar stories or reactions ?
I was called out not too long ago by a girl who mentioned how I was checking out her girlfriend's ass. So I said, "Oh, I'm sorry you feel left out. I'll make more of an effort to check out your ass too. Here, turn around." Worked like a charm.
I worked with a girl that asked me if I was a playboy. Of course I admitted it to her and started getting heavy attraction from then on.
I had a female friend who always told girls I was such a pimp and it was like a walking billboard for me.
Those are just a few examples.
Basically the way you want to handle a situation like this is to maintain your frame and come at it like it is no big deal.
Here's a three step process:
Agree > Observe > Redirect
So, she asks if you have read The Game.
Agree: "Yeah, I've read that book. It was pretty good."
Observe: "The pick up artist stuff seemed cool, but what I really loved was how it became this cautionary tale of what can happen if you don't approach this with deeper feelings--like we share."
Redirect: "It's cool that you've read that book too. Most girls are too uptight to read something like that. You know, I think he also co-wrote How to Make Love Like a Porn Star. Did you read that one?"
