...I saw her straddling some dude and riding him...she kept poking me throughout the night so i knew i should open but i kept saying "can't touch" and what not, small talk having a cig.etc..not showing interest like every guy in there was. Finally i walk out from the bathroom and put my arm around her waist and said "i'm gonna save you" and pulled her off into another area of the bar. She came willingly...strong EC/smiling.

me: (i wont get this verbatim i don't think)
"you riding that guy was interesting for a few seconds until something else caught my attention" - after doing my pull thing i didn't want to start going completely into her so i negged?

What the hell should i say? I started on about my job
hb: oh where do you work?

As nonverbal communication showed me she was completely unexcited.

What would you say to her?

Kinda new here myself but I think you may have gone wrong in to places.

One: I wouldnt mention that you " saw her riding that guy...". By mentioning him you put yourself in competition on with him, even if you used it in a neg. you might have simply said you noticed her if you wanted to go that route. just my opinion.

Second: talking work as you know, was abad Idea, people go out to forget about work. when you "saved here" you could have taken her back to her original set and stacked some material, or introduced her to your group, unless you both were alone.
