| Haha. I get the feeling that I am talking to myself here. But no matter. It didn't take me ALL day to do my approaches. I will admit I got a little lazy (the sky was grey and dismal and the malls were also dismal as well as almost empty) but I did get ONE number today and I only made two approaches.
Approach one:
Hi how are you, what are you looking for?
FINE, JUST LOOKING FOR SHORTS
Do you work here?
YES
Cool, what kind of shorts you looking for?
WELL THIS IS A MENS STORE SO THEY'RE NOT FOR ME
Oh I see, anyway I didn't come in here to buy anything, I was just walking by and I thought you looked adorable so I thought I'd pop in to say hello. Are you from this city?
NO BUT I'VE BEEN HERE A YEAR NOW GETTING READY TO START COLLEGE
Oh so you are still in high school?
NO NO, I JUST HAVEN'T BEEN TO COLLEGE YET
Oh cool. Let me guess, you're talking Political Science
OH MY GOD WHY WOULD YOU SAY THAT?
Am I right?
WELL I'M TAKING SCIENCE BUT NOT POLITICAL SCIENCE
Oh so do you want to be a scientist?
NO I'M WORKING ON A SCIENCE CREDIT SO I CAN TAKE DENTISTRY
(I cover my mouth) Do you secretly judge people by their teeth?
HAHA, NO BUT I LIKE A GUY WITH GOOD TEETH
I have great teeth (I smile) don't you think? Listen I have to go but I'd like to see you again
I HAVE A BOYFRIEND THOUGH
Oh, ok. ( I gave up here, it WAS my first approach ever) well thats good. Its nice to have someone to spend your time with, especially in a new city. You are lucky to have found someone cool.
MEH. I GUESS. (as in: he's not THAT cool, at this point I realized I could have got her after all, but still ejected as I could feel my face turning beet red)
Well nice meeting you, good luck with the boyfriend...
Approach two:
Can I ask you a question?
SURE
Do girls prefer guys to hit on them directly or indirectly?
WELL, WHAT DO YOU MEAN? I GUESS DIRECT IS BETTER, WHY?
Direct eh?
FOR SURE
Ok, well hi there, I think you are unbelievably cute and I'd like to get to know you better. I've already walked by twice trying to get up the nerve to come and say hi
ARE YOU FROM THIS CITY?
No, I live outside it a bit.
WHEREABOUTS? (I told her where. She said she lived down the road, which was near a spot where I once went to play guitar so I dhv by saying the following):
Oh no way, when I first got my car (having a car is big in this city) I went near your place to sit by the falls (how peaceful) with my guitar (showing that I have musical talent) to practise. Its so nice playing guitar with the sound of the rushing water in the background and all the trees around, its so serene.
THAT DOES SOUND LIKE FUN, HEY WHATS YOUR NUMBER? (I almost crapped my pants, SHE asked ME for the number first)
Anyway...she ran to get a pen (note to self: start carrying a pen) and came back and thats when I realized we didn't even exchange names so I injected some kino:
---Oh my god (I grab her elbow) I didn't even get your name. She told me, I shook her hand, told her my name, then she wrote down her number and asked me to write down mine.
And now here I am. I am now LESS afraid to approach and only now do I FULLY understand what I have read in all the pua books. I could have done alot better with both approaches and going forward I will work on this til I get it right and yes I know, next time I will approach waaay more women not just two..
Cheers!
