bit of a read if you're interested. Comments will be appreciated.
I've got a pretty crappy track record with girls and I am a bit of a wuss with them. And i guess like people on here I'm not a looker or rolling in cash. But I do have wits, humor and a pretty good education behind me. Whilst I can be witty and funny in social situations it usually subsides and I go back to being shy and awkward.Even with female cashiers or customer service I'll talk in a mumbled form or even stutter a little (how embarrassing

)
I had a friend lent me copy of the Game about 18 months ago but I only read one third of the book and gave it back and did the whole “this is garbage, I'd rather have someone like me for me… it's manipulation… blah, blah” the funny thing is when I usually do get action it’s by accidentally using some of the techniques mentioned on the site (being cocky or ignoring girls) but then I would usually ruin it by being a wuss.
Anyway, I was on a forum and somehow David DeAngelos name was mentioned so with some free time I decided to look him up and then started reading some of his stuff and started watching some of the video stuff and a bunch of it made sense or r at least made my mindset changed ( I still take some things he says with a grain of salt). I started to think “what did I have to lose? some girl who doesn't even know me might think I'm a smart arse or a weirdo ” at least I'll get some laughs out of it.
Anyway, I try to cram a lot of deAngelos ideas into my head before I went out last night (bar + nightclub) which I went with a couple of friends (who are vastly better looking than me) and I didn't go with a plan of trying to hook up or get any phone numbers. I thought I'll just use what I read to be a bit more sociable or at least to mess around with a girls head a little.
When we walked in the bar I remembered to go in as a confident walk, sit down with a relaxed but straight posture and not to stare at every girl in the bar and look needy. Although I was still a bit reserved I was a bit more sociable than usual with a group of people at our table.
We then went to a night club around the corner where we saw a bunch of girls at my friend knew. Girl A was a plain looker Girl B was a hottie (like 8/10) and girl C was this kinda cute redhead (6/10)who I chatted brielfy to about a book she had with her last week at the same bar. They walk pass me and my friend and the red head was giving me a look and i gave her a brief kinda disintrested glace and my friend goes to me " she was checking you out!" i just said "really, oh well whatever" trying not focus on it.
I went outside where my friend was talking to the Girl B (hottie) I went up to them but did'nt really engage them the chick was going on about something and i thought to hell with it, lets screw with her head a little. I bumped into the conversation and said with a kinda john waters voice "Honey, I would'nt be trying nothing with THOSE shoes" she was shocked! I turned away a bit and she starts going " hey, what's wrong with them??" I casually replied, "hey if you like them it's your choice... i guess" She had a hurt princess look and was kinda saying sadly "i like my boots... they're nice" I again said "hey.. I don''t have to wear em, not my problem" my friend was cracking up with laughter.
Later on the red head came and stood near me and drunken conversation occurred which I played it cool and disinterested. Some how we started talking about pot and hippies and I was making laid back wise cracks about hippies and talked music ( my field) and junk. She told me her name and asked mine and she excused herself, left and came back 10 mins later and I said some thing like "oh no not you again, what is it?" she found it funny and we talked a bit more and joked around. Then her friend and her were throwing ice cubes at each other and she grabbed one and put her hand down the front of my shirt and dropped the ice down on me ( IOI i guess) and I joked around and pretended to be a little offended. From what i recall one of us eventually went back inside.
Later on everyone was dancing and the plain girl (girlA) was dancing with my friend. I meet her a couple times in the past but that night she told me she 'did'nt know who i was' earlier that night. I thought I should make a impression and went up to her and my friend on the dance floor and said to her "do you mind?!" and gently pushed her away from my friend and started danced with him to which every one cracked up and she got a little embarrassed but found it funny. We then left and my friend said "nice NEG on that girl before" I felt happy, sure i did'nt hook up with anyone but I made an impression, had a laugh and did'nt be a awkward wussy with the ladies all night. I felt kinda happier and a little more confindent the next morning ( and hungover)
I guess I'm PUA converted believer now.I hope to keep practicing with it and slowly get results.
thanks for reading the speil
