This might fall under a few categories but I am going to give it a shot. I just got back to Atlanta and the big city mentality is way different the small town I went to college in. I think I am having trouble escalating.

I had no problem opening, I probably opened 5-6 sets last night. The problem is that while some might have stuck around for a little, I could not generate the spark for them to actually engage me completely. I danced with a few, got a few numbers and 1 kiss on the lips which isn't terrible but these aren't the results I am seeking.

When I would open a set I would quickly find something we have in common and "escalate" from there. I was persistent on using kino from the beginning. I would start with brushes on the shoulders and kisses on the cheek (when you meet someone) but I couldn't build that attraction factor that I am used to building.

The club was loud so it isn't like I could just approach and have an intelligent conversation. Now that I think about it, if the girls were jammed on the dance floor they probably didn't want to talk much anyway.

I also ran into a few girls last night that were just un-receptive and while not completely rude, they obviously were looking for "something better".

My question is how do I not only get these girls to be interested off the bat (especially when in groups in a loud club environment) but also how to escalate better. I feel that the kino is there it just might be that the topics I am talking about are not sexual enough or invoking enough emotion; but obviously I am not sure.

Helpful responses appreciated. Thank you in advance for your time.
