Hey guys, first post. I thought I'd talk about it a bit then ask some questions. I really hope you guys will read this (even though its really long) and reply. Thanks.

First off, some background information. I'm nineteen, I'm a sophomore at a very large university with lots of attractive girls I'd say im a moderately attractive guy.

During high school, I had decent game, but didn't hook up with many girls b/c i don't think i was ready (kinda scared to i guess). But I did have a couple chances with some of the hotter girls at the school only to turn them down inexplicably. I was friends with all the most attractive girls in my grade (no, not like a gay friend). Even though I didn't get alot of hookups in HS, I was pretty confident in my game going into college and assumed i'd do well my freshman year.

I was wrong. I literally didn't get a single hookup, didn't really make any friends of the opposite sex, and obtained a few girls' numbers but they were all pretty much unrelated to pickup. I still went out on a weekly basis, but the group of friends I hung out NEVER ventured out to meet new people and didn't have many friends of the opposite sex at the school. I pretty much stayed with the group afraid to go on my own for fear of looking weird. My confidence reached an all time low because it seemed like to me that every girl was a giant bitch and every guy was a douche looking to fight. I felt like I'd lost alot of the good qualities that drew people towards me in High School.

One of the last weeks of the summer, I stumbled upon this site (even though i'd already seen it before) and read this forum for a long time, and I already felt like i'd gained some confidence. Then I watched just about every episode of "Keys to the VIP" (Actually i didn't watch the ones where guys had terrible game... I don't ever like to envision failure or people doing something the wrong way) And I felt like I gained confidence that I wasn't going to get rejected right off the bat if I was confident. I also think I picked up on alot of the nonverbal/body language things the players used.

NOW FOR MY FIRST WEEK ATTEMPTING TO BE A PUA

I came to college for my second year with alot of confidence based solely off things i'd found on the internet.

My first weekend out, I was excited to use some of the techniques i'd heard, but I was also visibly nervous all night because I knew the cops would be cracking down on underage drinking the first weekend (like always). While some friends took a risk by going to a bar w/ cops outside, I wouldn't go.

FIRST FRIDAY NIGHT: Instead I tagged along with another friend who has a girlfriend. It was him, his girlfriend, and me... pretty awkward situation but i felt like I had nowhere to go. Anyway, a couple of his girlfriends' cute friends followed them over, but I was really sober and still nervous about cops so i wasn't being myself. I tentatively tried talking to them to avoid the awkwardness, but It just made things more awkward... They soon left together.

Fastforward to later in the night. I end up nutting up and going to the bar my friends are at. We are pretty much doing the same old thing: 6 guys chillin' in the corner of a loud bar talking, but not having fun. Then at about 1:45 i start to get mad at myself for not having approached once all night. I'm still nervous about approaching, so i start using alot of very, very simple nonverbal game within my group (standing tall, smiling and laughing more, and when I see a cute girl, I keep looking and smiling at her instead of looking away). I see a HB 7 dancing (badly) by herself and i smile at her and give a playful laugh... she approaches me (This literally NEVER happened even ONCE last year... this nonverbal game helps). I start to playfully neg her dancing, she asks my name, I'm acting confident... I probably over-neg her and turn away from her as a joke, and she walks away. I kinda see this more as me rejecting her than the other way around (AND YOU CANT CONVINCE ME OTHERWISE LOL). So the bar is about to close and now i'm feeling a little better. I keep using this nonverbal stuff... An (annoying) HB7 who hung out with me and my friends last year (who I only knew a little) gives me a hug, takes my hand, tries talking to me for a while, but she is just so uninteresting to talk to, i kinda cued her to stop being all over me. If theres ever an HB7 who could turn me off, its her. Other than that, I introduce myself to some of her friends and have a good time... Night is over..

**I'm just going to skip saturday night on this. I failed. I didn't approach (despite some good eye contact and IOIs)... Whatever... its the past.

Mon-Fri (day game)

This is just a basic change, but I start (for the first time ever) using the nonverbal game around campus. EVERY SINGLE TIME i see a cute girl I'm interested in, I don't approach, but I smile and keep looking at them. I get alot of cute girls smiling back and blushing and it feels amazing. I also make it a point to talk casually to alot more people.


FRIDAY NIGHT (definitely the highlight of this post)****

So i go over to one of my buddies house for a pregame and just chill. I'm relaxed and having a good time, kinda being the life of the party with my jokes, and a couple of HB6-7 come over who i don't know. I'm not really all that interested because they aren't that hot, but I keep having a good time and when i sit down on the couch, she asks to sit next to me. We have a pretty good talk with some good eye contact and all. They leave for downtown early and she is disappointed i'm not going. Whatev i'll see her later probably.

I end up going out at around 12:00. I do the same old, lame chillin with guy friends with not alot of fun for the first 20 minutes. Somehow, a everyone gets split up. Usually this is an uncomfortable situation, but for some reason (alcohol), I'm okay with it. I have one friend with me who i'd met the day before. He goes downstairs where his group of 7 friends (3 guys... i only know one, 4 girls... i don't know any) are chillin. Normally, i'd stand on the outside of the circle trying to avoid looking awkward and introduce myself to maybe one person if i had to. This time, I come in acting like i'm having a blast. I start talking to a cute HB8.5 and flirting a little bit with some touching. Normally conversation stalls, but for some reason I'm talking alot more smoothly. We joke around a bit, and I introduce myself to her 2 girl friends (all HB8-9). I tease/joke around w/ them for a minute, then go to the bar to get myself a drink while leaving her with some flirty comment. When I get back, I talk to the guys for a second, then find some flirty segue back into the girls' convo. I start to really hit it off with the hottest one there (HB9). I'm teasing her, pushing her away, but she keeps coming back. She keeps initiating physical contact with me and I'm finding all kinds of clever ways to make her DHV to me. At this point in time, I'm away from all my friends at a bar for one of the first times ever, and I'm the life of the party for 4 very attractive girls i just met 30 minutes ago. AWESOME, I could have never expected this. About 30 minutes of continuing flirting with this girl plus a little bit of serious talk, The group of 7 decides to leave together, and I decide I shouldn't follow them (It seemed to me to be DLV maybe???). I get the girls number and tell her i'd text her the next day. She seemed very interested.

For the rest of the night, my confidence is so high that i just start talking to everyone at the bar, and approaching girls with confidence (pretty much always unsucessfully... its definitely the aspect of night game i need to work on the most).

Anyway, I had a great night. It was my first real weekend trying to be a PUA, and I was out there having a blast with random HB8-9s. I end up finding out that the girl whos number I got has a ("very, very crazy") boyfriend. But I still had fun. As a side question, how should I handle this?

SATURDAY

Okay I'm getting a little tired of typing, but all you need to know is these things:
1) Happy Hour + Fantasy football draft at 4PM at a bar.
2) I go out with friends at 12AM ish
3) They go somewhere else at 1ish, I stay.
4) Within minutes of them leaving, I casually say something to a HB6.5 or 7, she grabs my arm as I'm walking away. We tease eachother and there is A LOT of sexual tension. I begin to leave and she asks me why I didn't ask for her number. I get her number, she tells me to text her later in the night. Then I get blackout and text her and she doesn't respond. HAHA.

THE END. In conclusion, In just my first week attempting to be a PUA, I was more successful than I'd been the entire year before (and both nights were almost exclusively solo). I'm feeling very confident and good right now.

(Sorry if that was WAYYYYY too long. It took me forever to write. Half the reason I wrote it was for me, but if you guys want to comment with any advice or anything else, that would be great!)
