Post subject:  Direct Approaching

Been doing it almost all my life. Cause I have natural tendencies to go straight for it. And i got a hot girls number today just from asking "hey, is that your boyfriend right there?" but what are examples of how you go direct? and has it worked. or would you rather indirect approaches? cause i feel they get me nowhere.

The thing with direct is you better have the confidence and game to back it up. I've just started to switch to more of a direct approach since the whole PUA media scene and passive test being and increasing issue I just don't want to deal with. Indirect seems to work better in sets with cock blocks and and in clubs where HB's 8+ who get approached by direct all the time (Yes, even by confident males). However, even with direct, all you have to do is build social proof around you (by bringing girls with you or opening up other sets) and then enter the higher set.
As for example, anything really that doesn't involve commenting on how "fine" her boobs or ass are such as, "Hey, I just want you to know that I think you're cute" or "You have an incredible energy about you" or "You seem interesting, so I've decided to get to know you" then run into your routine.

personally i think indirect openers work better in clubs rather than direct openers, but if you have enough social proof direct openers would work fine. In every other situation, just go direct.

as style has said in the past, direct is reserved for when you already have social proof or preselection. stick with that and you'll do fine

lol.

I've approached girls at the bar and ended up going home with them quite a few times when I was out with like 2 guy friends. No preselection there, no social proof either cos they didn't even see my friends till I pointed them out. You're perfectly entitled to stick with that theory though. :mrgreen:

I went into a bunch of stuff and figured I'd post it seperately, so here it is - the-definitive-guide-to-direct-game-vt36134.html

Can very good looks (9 or 10) be an indicator for girls that that hottest guy in the club just must be preselected by other girls even if he hasn't said it directly. I mean in the same way that we guys think that the extremely hot girl (9 or 10) that is the hottest girl in the entire club just must be preselected even if she is not. We guys many times even think that she just must have a boyfriend even if she is single. Do girls think like that as well?

Direct approaching can work. There is no debate that it works. But you have to have the right skills for it.

Personally, I don't like being approached directly though. If a guy approaches me directly then I already know he likes me because chances are he comes up and says "you are cute and I wanted to get to know you blah blah blah." Ok so now I know he likes me, where is the challenge? He can try push pull but I know that will be all bs because he already told me that I attract him. So maybe it is just me but I like the challenge.

Bonita even if a guy was to use indirect game wouldn't him approaching you saying he is interested in you (assuming you where by yourself)? Why else would he approach you?
