This is the BEST K-close routine i've ever heard or used for that matter.

It goes something like:

PUA: *convo
HB: *blah blah
PUA: Okay. I feel like you are either really cool, or a total weirdo. but either way I'm intrigued. It's time for an ALMOST KISS.. Now you've gotta promise to NOT actually kiss me, all you do, is just get as close without touching lips as possible.
HB: okay

(as you get close, you just hold it as long as possible. I've noticed that most of the time the girl will break and initiate the make out. if not.. Just continue the conversation. At this point you can either let the thread die to silence, and then just go in for the make out, or go in and hold another "almost kiss". I've done it collectively 8 or 9 times so far, and it's never gone more than 2 "almost kisses". They will always break, or you will instinctively make out.)

If she does break the first time and initiate the k-close:
(after make-out)
PUA: Hold out your hand..
HB: *complies
PUA (lightly slap the top of her hand and say) Thats for cheating


This is genius, because if she complies in ANY way with the "almost kiss" than she is 100% in for the k-close.

Went out in Austin last weekend for the SXSW music festival. millions of people.. GREAT FUN.

i decided to field test this as much as i could. and 4 in one night is what i came up with

1.)

Coffee: I can't quite get a good read on you! (smile) you have this nice girl front.. But we both know it's just that.. a front... Either way. I'm intrigued. It's time for an Almost kiss.
HB7: Whats that?
Coffee: Just what it sounds.. You have to promise not to kiss me though...
HB7: okay
*almost kiss* (as our lips were super close, I played with her hair)
HB7: aggh your such a tease!
Coffee: than lets try it again..
*K-CLOSE

2.) (this girl was cheeky.. I'm not saying this was solid game, but it worked)

Coffee: I can't tell if you actually are cool, or if you are actually just a huge nerd. Either way is cool. I'm intrigued
HB9: Oh really?
Coffee: don't get any ideas.. I'm not that easy. hmmm. you get... an.. Almost kiss.
HB9: who said I want that?
Coffee: Don't recall.. I said thats what you get.
HB9: well. I suppose I'll allow it.
Coffee: Allow it? what is this? conditions of a treaty?
HB9: So what do I do?
Coffee: you just have to promise NOT to actually kiss me you player you.. (playfully) Just get as close without giving me coodies.
(We both came into the "almost kiss" too fast and immediately touched lips)
Coffee: fuck it..
*K-CLOSE

The other two were pretty stock.

Any improvements, criticisms?

As a PUA, you must leave the girl better off than when you found her

sounds pretty solid. I'll definately have to give it a go.

From a female's perspective this would definately increase the sexual vibe. If the "almost kiss" doesn't end in closing the first time, it is guaranteed to make her think about kissing you for the rest of the conversation. Women are naturally curious creatures.

Making the kiss close verbal puts too much emphasis on the kiss. It could make you look obsessed/needy about the kiss and may make the girl not want to kiss you, where she was ready to any time.

however,
If this works for you, that's fine, stick with it.
