DAY 3
I and my buddy decided to visit the metro-rail stations and then go to CP which is called the heart of Delhi. CP is the most crowded area in the whole of Delhi.
Approach One:
2-set (HB7 and UG) sitting waiting for train. I had a huge approach anxiety, and so I just didn’t want to open it. Wing pushed me into it. We walk past them, i turn back, body still facing away.
Me (Looking at HB): Excuse me, hey, what’s the way to xxxxx from here?
HB(With a serious face): You have to change the train.
Me: Oh cool, what station is it? (Turned my body towards the set)
HB: Its named xxxxx.
Me: Cool, actually we are new in here, we wanted to buy some clothes. You get it in xxxxx rite?
HB: (Nods her head, still serious)
Me: Ok, thank you. Bye (I assumed from her face that the set is over, We moved away).
The Analysis :
a) She was serious probably because we didn’t smile while entering the set.
b) My AA went from 9 to 8 In a scale of 10.
c) I talked real fast. I didn’t also enunciate well
d) Realized that AA stays on only for the first 5 seconds when you open a set.
e) ‘;I didn’t know how the hell I can transition from the opener. I was STUCK.
f) I totally ignored the UG. She definitely is not approached frequently. If I diverted my attention from HB (who was showing attitude) to UG maybe it could have resulted in something cool like a jealous plotline.
Approach Two:
HB6 walking all alone towards us.``
Me: I wanna ask your opinion on something (real fast)
HB: What? Pin?
Me: (Repeated the opener slower)
HB: Wat?
Me: (Repeated again but super slow)
HB: Wat ? (LOL)
Wing: (Asked her same thing in hindi thinking that maybe she doesn’t know English well)
HB: Oh ok .
Me: Jeez, I am EMBARASSED. I actually said OPINION. (In a teasing manner like I am actually hurt)
HB: OOH Opinion? OK…… (smiling)
Me: See we are new in the city. We wanna know what is the fanciest place to hang around here. We’ve got like 3 hours to hang around, tell me like one awesome place to hang out.
HB: Maybe you should ask some guys.
Me: Well, guys doesn’t know much more than where to go booze and stuff (trying C&F)
HB: Well, I don’t go to pubs etc…. blah blah
Me: We know where the pubs are  We just wanna know like some cool places where you would like to waste time.
HB: Blah blah (forgot what she said but she was smiling)
Wing: You have a C smile.
HB: (I think she didn’t understand. She gave that “these guys are assholes look”)
Me: Like where I can buy some clothes
HB: Blah blah (Also walking away)
Me: Oh cool, thanks for your help (Gives hand expecting a handshake)
HB: (Says I can’t give you shake hand in sign language LOL)
Analysis:
a) Stuck in the opener.
b) Was able to tease a bit.
c) I never push things to comfort building questions like where are you from etc….. how do I transition into comfort, attraction or anything from these openers?
d) I spoke too fast.
e) AA went to 7 I guess
f) I never try to push the set for longer time. I think just pushing the set longer even if she is bored or leaving or whatever can improve my game. I always walk away when I see the talk going nowhere or when the set starts showing disinterest.
Approach three:
2 set sitting on chair (HB7 and HB8)
Me: Hey, is there a park around here?
HB7: There are two parks here.
Me: Actually, my friends are waiting for me in one of the parks. No idea which one it is.
HB7: That’s the biggest park. The other one is small, no one goes there.
(Talk going nowhere)
Wing: You have a C smile
HB7: Gives a really weird smile like you GUYS ARE LOSERS.
Me: That’s the park buddy, lets go (Ejects)
Analysis:
a) I LOVE TO EJECT FROM THE SET. I should stay as long as i can.
b) No teasing, no fun vibe. The fun vibe is really important.
c) C smile is a bad opener to use without good energy. It should be like, when she is laughing at something we told, act like something really interesting happened. And then go…”Dude, she has a C…… smile right?” I should say C with good emphasis because people often think its just smile and ignore the C. Then immediately tell her about the C and U smile using a good story.
Approach four:
We were walking in the park trying to find some good sets. We finally found a 4 girl set, mostly in the range of HB5 to HB6 or so sitting on the lawn. My AA went super high. The coolest thing in the world is that my wing has very very less AA. He can actually open easily unlike me, who totally turns into a pussy. We planned to come from an angle and sit near to them on the lawn. I sat far away (cuz I am scared). I took my phone out, and acted like I am talking to my friend some urgent matter, very loudly. I noticed that a few of the girls were hearing what I am saying. I came back and talked to my buddy again loudly about what I was talking on phone. I was supposed to open the set now, but then I pussied out. But my wing, immediately opened
Wing: Excuse me, hi, we want to hear your opinion.
Me: (Immediately joins in) Yea, see my niece has her birthday tomorrow. She is 17, what shall I buy for her.
HBone: (After discussing) Buy her a teddy bear
Me: Isnt that a bit cheesy? She is SEVENTEEN!
HBtwo: Or buy her a dress
Me: Oh cool, but well, I have to buy it like right now. My friends are calling me and I gotta leave in 3 minutes. I think dress is hard to choose now, what do you think about a handbag?
HBTwo: Oh that’s good, handbag is good. You can get It in xxxxx.
Me: Oh, where is xxxx. We are new in the city. I am actually from far away, from xxxxx.
HBTwo: (Tells where it is)
HBs : (All smiling, and talking, giving opinions and stuff)
Me: (Noticed that one of the girl was giving me IOIs. I thought of asking her something apart frm the opinions, but I felt like if I ask her something, other girls will know I am hitting and I felt like I shouldn’t do it. Solid proof that I am an ASSHOLE)
After some more talking, I said thank you and we just left 
Analysis:
a) It was a pretty good try due to all the planning and stuff. It felt good. It felt a bit ballsy to open a 4 set.
b) All problems as in other approaches. Stuck in opener, no good teasing, girls never have a fun talking to us etc.
c) I have HUGE AA. But thing is, if my wing says “hi” for me, I can continue pretty well. But if I am the one who says “hi” initially, I usually mumbles/speaks fast a lot and shit gets fucked up at the beginning.
We probably opened a few more sets. But I am not mentioning it, since they didn’t last AT ALL.
