Post subject:  Need help with failed Pick up

I was standing in line at a Barn and Nobles coffee shop at around 3:30 pm today. There was this cute cashier so i stood in line with only one person ahead of me in line. She rang me up for some lemon aid and then i opened. The convo went like this word for word.

Me- Hey let me ask you a quick question. Me and my friends were just having a debate and i feel i really got to get a woman's opinion on this.
Hb- Ok
Me- Do you feel guys that do Muay Thai are sexier then guys that don't?
HB- Wait whats Muay Thai?
Me- The "art of 8 limbs". its Thai boxing.
Hb- Yeah defiantly.
Me- Oh alright. *pause* Listen im a white belt Muai Thai fighter and i was just wondering if you wanted to got play some billiards with me after you get out of work?
Hb-i have a boyfriend
me- oh thats fine i wasnt asking your boyfriend out i was asking you out.
Hb- but wouldnt that be wrong?
me- i dont know i dont have a boyfriend
Hb- *speachless*
Me- *froze up* never mind. *walked away*

Now here's were i think i messed up: instead of walking away i should have negged her and then i should of asked her out again. I felt i was being persistent but not persistent enough... but i could be wrong.

Any help on this manner would be greatly appreciated.

Openers should NOT be yes/no questions. And really, girls aren't that impressed with your skills of kicking ass.

Wait, what? You just asked her like that out of the blue? Why even bother with the opener?
Look, if you are going to get a girl to come to a date, she has to be comfortable around you first. My advice to you would be to read up on building rapport/comfort. THEN you can ask her out!

Read: I'm not interested. No matter what you say from this point on will turn this around. You blew the set, you're making me uncomfortable, please leave.

If you had been persisting more she would have called security..

Just to clear on something I just working on getting rid of approach anxiety. I wasnt to serous about this pick up but just had a feeling there was something i could do using the method i used.

Thanks for the advice. :D

shoulda used some smart alecky facial expressions, like a raised eebrow or a little smirk.

helps with me. it usually happens like this:
hb: man, you are persistent arent you (grin)
me: wouldnt you say its worth it?
hb: maybe...

by then she's sunk.
