Sorry I haven't updated yet, no excuses, I've been way to scared to Sarge. I wanted to do a day one report for what has happened so far but honestly I would feel bad about it since I've just talked to HB's through IM and Text the last few days. Though I feel like my body language is alot better after internalizing alot of things from the board and my eye contact is incredible lately. So without further ado, my two prospects yesterday through text.
HB7
So this a girl I've known for a few months but talk to pretty infrequently. I decided to text her, conversation went roughly like this.
Me: Hey Loser, How's it goin
Her: heeeeeey, smokin, youuuuuu?
Me: Well I was paying attention in class, now I'm being Jealous of you
Her: Sorreeeeeee
Me: I'm sure you'll think of a way to earn my forgiveness
Her: I Hope So
Later on she texted me about hanging out and we decided to kick it that night. Asked her at about 6 if she was still down and she said yah. Then at 10 I asked what time she wanted too and she said she didn't know. Wanting to set a time constraint I told her my night was kinda busy so If we couldn't kick it tonight, we always had the next week, she say yaaaaaahhhhh. I told her if her schedule free'd up by 11 to text me, she said she would.
She never texted me back, so I'm not sure if it was a schedule thing or if I made a mistake.

This one was alot better in my opinion, I thought I used more techniques and really had something flowing. Deleted the messages when my inbox got full so I don't have the earlier ones but I remember teasing her alot, disqualified myself, related to her in conversation and used this line when we were talking about hunting Eskimo's
Me: Zakk and Gertrude's (The teasing nickname I gave her) Eskimo Assassins Inc, that definitely feels like has a ring to it.
Her: It's how we'll make our Million ^-^
Me: Here's the plan, We'll make our fortune, kill a drug lord, move to Paris, Argue over the second kids name, then blow it all on Riverboat Gambling. You Down?
Her: Definitely, Sounds like a Fun Time
Then the conversation carried on from there. I felt like I used compliance in asking her if she wanted to do it while utilizing Gambler's technique of talking about doing things with girls in a joking manner. That way they visualize it and feel the good feeling without paying serious attention to it. Later on we started texting again and it went similar with some teasing, Relatable talk and then went into this.
Me: Your a Mob Boss huh How many guys you Whack
Her: Few here and a few there lol
Me: That's good to hear, I hate people that suck at their job. Someones a hard worker lol
Her: Well I do like to keep my work ethic up lol
Me: Gertrude does sound like a try till the jobs done kinda name
Her: haha I guess with certain people
Me: You work hard with certain people?
Her: haha yes
Me: My curiosity is peaked, what kind of people?
Her: Well what kind of hard work are you talkin bout?
Me: Any Kind, first thing that comes to mind
Her: haha Well one thing comes to mind
Me: I wonder if it's the same as what I'm thinking
Her: What are you thinking
Me: I'm thinking of me and you working hard
Her: haha um maybe another time
Me: I wasn't suggesting anything tonight xD Someone moves fast lol
Her: haha I don't move fast
Me: Hey, No judgement, Just saying I'm not that easy lol
Her: haha I never hinted you were
Me: So have we both confirmed were not easy?
Her: Yup
Me: Then only one question left to answer
Her: Ask Away
Me: What was on your mind lol
Her: Haha I was talking about how I work hard with some kinds of people
Me: I remember, I mean what type of work came to mind?
Her: Haha I do all kinds
Me: I see lol So what was your Major again
It continued on as a regular conversation from there. I feel like I did a great job of escalating the sexual tension earlier but then somehow it deflated and I can't figure out what I did wrong. Did I come on too strong with my response to what she was thinking or do you think I read the entire thing wrong and it wasn't as sexually charged as I thought?
So Amazing <a href="

I love your metaphor, that's exactly what I felt too.
It feels so strange to read that since I have the feeling that I have still a really long way to go. Of course I'm way more confident, I maintain eye contact, I've improved my body language... but truth is I can't #-close properly for now. But you know what? Let's do this together. Keep that journal updated, I'll follow you and we'll share experience. That's the best way to learn. By the way, check the links Hobbit has posted on my thread... they really helped me.
