So last night was actually the first night where I used my newly learnt pick up routines. The night started off with my roommate Shawn and another guy on our baseball team Kyle. Who decided we were going to go to the first party we had lined up at around nine. When we got there we called and said we were there and they ended up telling us to come back later cause they were still getting ready and the party hadn’t started yet (I thought it was already going). So i told the guys i was with we should just go to the other party that was going on at the time with our other team mates Grant and Josh (Keep in mind nobody else knows anything about PU). I thought we should just punish the girls right away for showing up to there house later than usual cause they weren’t ready for us.

So now we pull up to the other house which was just a kick back that had sixes, sevens, and a couple of eights. I thought what a great way to warm up. So we enter the house, me smiling of course, and everybody introduces them selves. I noticed there was a group of people out side so i pretty much immediately head out side to distance my self from my friends and make company with the people out side. I kind of tried to make my self the friendly guy from out of town just looking to just chill with people. It worked out and i spit some game on the two 8's out there and picked up a couple of IOI's. I didn’t really try for number closes or anything because i was just trying the stuff out for the first time, I wish did now though haha.

Anyway we all thought now it was time to leave and it was around 11:30. So we leave to go to the house with the better looking chicks who consisted of a 9, two 8's, and a 7. We walked in smiling again and immediately introduced our self’s. We started some convo and smoked some hookah and i made friends with all the guys that were there as well first. After we made friends i kind of started talking with the 6 and the 7 first. As i was doing that some guy comes and up and does a poor as job and starts harassing one the 9 who totally shielded her ass haha he was bombing bad and she was getting annoyed. So intervened pretending to take his side and keep him talking to me instead of her but still making eye contact with her to keep her in the conversation. After he finally leaves I started talking with her and threw out a style psychic deal and said and said picka number between 1 and 4 and blah blah blah i got the number right and said i could memorize everybody's name at the kicker. There were 20 other people out side the group and she took up the bet.

Me and grant who was my wing (He didn’t know it, but he was) go around with a pen asking everybody's name there and writing it down on my left hand. Easy way to break the ice with people i figured out. oh i also made sure i kept contact with the 9 girl (who told me her name, which i forgot along with all her other friends) to make sure she didn’t forget me. I did this by occasionally making eye contact and staying stuff like your going to lose. So after ten min we become the center of the party cause we were the people that everybody knew but who were there the shortest. Made us look more popular. I finally come back with the list and show the girl i know everybody's name. She said we cheated and we still didn’t know their names.

So for about an hour we started talking and joking around trying to figure out their names to win the bet we had with them. In the end we learn everybody's but one of the 8s. After that they kept saying we lost and we should admit it. Everybody on my friends side did, but i didn’t cause i wanted to be different. It worked and the girls immediately started giving me more attention.

I then started saying lets go to the third party we had lined up, although by that time i was exhausted and really wanted to get sleep. I was trying to get them to give me a number and I new they would. So we start to leave and they are right behind us walkin out the door. We all get in the cars and they pull off really slowly like waiting for us to say something or give them a number, but I told the guys dont do it cause they will in the end give us there number. So they drive past us then stop, then go in reverse. I knew they would do that but it still shocked me that i was right haha. They role down the window and say our friend Stephanie (who as an 8 that we all kind ignored for some reason) wanted to give us her number. Kyle immediately gets out of the car and starts exchanging numbers. I keep saying we need to go and pretend to get annoyed and get out of the car with the sharpie and go up to the driver (who was the 6 damnit) and right on her arm my number.

Sad part about it was i drank so much i gave them my parents house number instead of my cell haha. In the end i thought it was a good first night and if anybody has any advice to give that would be awesome. Sorry it took so long to read but yah thanks.

A couple of things I can think of, for one don't drink too much... This is something that I have noticed with me recently, is that at times I drink too much. (not that often) Its actually easier to have a conversation and be more quick witted and clever when coming up with a response to what someone says. Oh and pictures turn out way nicer =D

Sharpie on arm...? If someone did that to me I would be pissed off. Get a pen and some paper, or type it on her phone. I don't know just my $.02

P.S. Nice to see that you are making an effort to go out and do some of this, and don't worry about the 6, she just might be your gateway to the others, and try not to ignore the others in the group, keep them all involved.

Sweet. Im definetly not going to drink so much and looking back on the sharpie on the arm it kinda was a bad idea haha.

Thanks for the advice!

indeed.

alcohol is nothing but a quick and easy way to get rid of AA. and as everything that is quick and easy, it's not as magical as it seems.

it lows your AA levels, yes. it also lows your levels to speak well (and i'm not talking about having twelve beers, but a couple of glasses), your ability to catch IOIs (in the worst of cases of drunken you see non existant IOIs), and the list goes on...

so there it is.. u guys drink at bachelor parties and poker nights.. when sarging two glasses is the limit (well.. depends on the personal resistance to the effects..)
