| So last night was my friend Amanda's 21st birthday, and I had offered to be DD. Around 9 o'clock I showed up at her place with a yellow rose for her birthday and picked her and my ex-onetis/still game HB 8 (Made out a year ago, dated twice last month before her giving me the "I don't want a relationship" speech). I drove the three of us to this hookah/karaoke bar and we met up with a good sized group. During the ride over I was completely owning the conversation, HB 8 started to flirt with me a bit. Instead of playing into this and displaying interest, I used a few playful negs which actually made her step up the flirting even more (sort of weird but hey lol).
Anyway, so we arrived at the bar and sat down with our group, HB 8 sat next to me and Amanda sat on other side. The night progressed, and HB 8 was responding to my push/pull CF game by pushing up the kino even more. I rewarded this by dancing with her and returning some minor stuff, but nothing over the top. I had to make it clear I wasn't going to be used for her validation. Conversation at the table was awesome, I was in charge. There's no debating this, it seriously blew my mind how easily it was for me to slip into the role of the alpha male, I've never felt like that before. Amanda said I should get someone to buy her a drink, so I agreed.
I ended up walking straight up to a four set at the bar, 1 guy 3 women. I didn't use a routine or any opener, just walked up to the guy and said "sir, in my opinion you should buy my friend a drink for her 21st birthday." The response of the three women to this was astounding to me. Every single one of them was instantly vying for my attention. The gentleman agreed, and as he was purchasing said drink (a white russian), I stayed there working these three friends against each other for my attention. That was awesome. I honed in this HB 9, and built rapport with the other two. Eventually she was begging to dance with me, I told her "maybe find me later in the night, play your cards right and we'll see" and walked back to my table. To be honest, I was there for my friend, the PUA stuff was just bonus; it was her night.
As I walked back it felt like every woman in the bar was looking at me. I sat back down with Amanda's drink, and slipped right back into my old role. HB 8 seemed genuinely confused after seeing me take charge like that. Amanda kept calling me a sweetheart and kissing me on the cheek, she'd had a bit to drink lol. Well, I did get like 3 other people to buy her booze... Anyway, half an hour later, the HB 9 walked up to me and asked for that dance. I playfully sighed and said "fine" the two of us danced for awhile, and then I said "you seem cool, but tonight's about my friend, give me your number and we can continue this later" she smiled and gave me a hug/kiss on the cheek; along with her number (HB 8 had been watching me the whole time). I'm not sure if this backfired on her though, when I got back she was acting withdrawn and shy all the sudden. She had been dancing with another dude too though, and she had said she wanted to be just friends earlier, but she was acting really jealous.
Well, after a few hours, my friend was smashed so I drove the three of us home. On the way back I reminded her that she'd made me promise to sing to her for her birthday. I ended up singing two of my songs and her favorite one from Alladin. HB 8 seemed hypnotized during the songs I wrote and both seemed genuinely blown away. Amanda kept calling me sweetheart and hugging up on me the whole ride back, and when I dropped her off she kissed me twice on the cheek before leaving the car, I waved goodbye to HB 8, and drove home with a big fat grin on my face. This night was good for me, it's so nice to see how far I've come in only a month. I think I made HB 8 finally realize that just because I have the good guy side to myself, that doesn't mean I can't be the man. She was looking at me differently by the end of the night...and I have a day 2 setup with the HB9 for tomorrow. _________________ "All the dragons in our lives are perhaps princesses expecting us to be handsome and brave, all the terrifying things are perhaps nothing but helpless things waiting for us to help them."
