heyy guys,
Just wanted to share with y'all a success story of mine! (inspiration for all the other nervous guys out there)

The other day (a fine and sunny day) i decided to walk to my bus stop from uni, and not catch the tram all the way down.
As i walked i noticed a fine young woman (HB sitting by herself on the state library lawn overlooking the street (this is in the busy city of Melbourne BTW)
So, as i passed i was deciding whether or not to approach.. in the end decided not to (very AFC of me, but it was very nerve racking! i'm sure you all know the feeling)
so a lil further down, i stopped dead in my tracks, thinking to myself: "No! this is what every guy does, cos nobody grows the balls to do something like this, and they all just let these opportunities pass them! I won't be one of those guys!i wont be AFC!"
So i turned back, sat somewhere where she couldnt see me as i decided if i was really going to do this or not..
In the end i decided to "Just Do It" (Nike slogan )
So i walked up to her confidently (flew under the radar, she didnt see me coming) i approached to a lil to her side so as not to be intimidating and i said:
"Hey, i dont mean to interrupt or anything, i actually gotta head off pretty soon cos my bus is coming, but i just wanted to say that i thought you were really cute and i just wanted to say hi"
With pretty much those exact words (Special thanks to various pickup material for helping me better understand direct day game (its the best way in my opinion)
So HB8 was all like "Naww thank you..blah blah blah"
We got talking for about 15-20mins, and i wasnt goin to in the first place, but then decided to go for a number close, and got the number (pretty well!)

Called her the next day for a 2 min chat (didnt wanna make it long winded, just enough to keep her warm - i wont bore you with what i said unless you really wanna know)

and then today out of the blue i get a text asking if i'm in the city today for uni, i reply that i am asking her wat she's got in mind, then we arranged to meet up today (2 days after meet - it was her idea too lol yay?)
So we met for coffee, went really well, established good physical contact from the get go - i kino'd and she kino'd back, she displayed very positive body language, and we had a great convo about nothing really lol - it was just fun and easy going.
And then i walked her to her work (cos she had work after we met up) and the goodbye was pretty solid too..
a couple of prolonged hugs a bit of EC whilst in the hug, etc. I could've K-Closed, but i didnt wanna rush anything, so instead we kissed goodbye on teh cheeks a bit (if you say i'm stupid for that, stfu! i know what i'm doing lol)
and we parted.

I texted her later on saying that i had fun, i hope she did too, and that we should do this again soon, she said she had fun and agreed to go out again.. and thats where i'm up to with it.
Everything going very well so far.

So guys, take that leap of faith into the unknown, and you wont regret it, in fact u may end up with a pretty hot potential gf

Long post but i had to vent this somewhere.
I Guess i learned that it is possible for me (as well as anyone else out there) to see what you want, and to go after it!
You can do it! and i proved that to myself the other day!

Great job man!
Good thing you just picked up your balls and went for it.
Just be careful not to postpone the k-close too long, we all know where that leads to . Get the comfort and kino up and get her.

Good on ya bro. Just shows you what having a bit of confidence in yourself can do.

keep it up!!

Good job champ, always good to hear from a fellow aussie. I think our girls are a bit more bitchy.

Aussie girls are more bitchy... I'll vouch. Chicago girls are like that too.

it s the typical pick up... excellent! Good job!

what's interesting is how you feel when it works... and if you think about it, all it took was to say hi, and then it all came naturally.... using some sneaky techniques really but that's it!

A similar story happened to me three days ago.

I was walking in the street. I saw this very hot blond eastern european type girl (dressed superbly hotly, and with those shoes I have never seen before...) difficult to explain how the shoes where.... but they were high heels very futurists ones...

I hesitated about opening her as she was very hot.... a few seconds and while I was walking in the same direction as she was (2m away from her) I went:

me: those are very special shoes!
hb: hehe thanks, actually they re quite famous in my country but not in here...
me: where did you buy them from
hb: [gave the name, did not get it...]
me: actually, need a female's opinion, what do you think about that? am a photographer... [I take a few shots I took, and show them to her while we walk]
hb: interesting...
me: I d be interested to shoot the shoes...
hb: cool

then we passed in front of a starbuck coffee, I said let's go have a coffee and talk about it, then I time constrained here...

I begun a few routines and number closed. Did not call her back yet....

Then when I left, I felt she wanted me to stay... maybe I was wrong but that s how I felt.

Was natural and easy, not sure I ll f-close, but was very rewarding... Certainly she was easy to chat up, and we had some good connection, but if I had not been in PUA mode, I would not have had a coffee after 5min and I would not have had no-closed either. It seems very easy when it works and that s why we love PUA mode... Those women with whom the method work are gold for us! God bless them!

Cheers for the feedback guys
Ok, time for an update..
SO this all happened on tuesday, and i called on Wednesday (as i describe above, and we met thursday)
Today (Friday) she texts me in the morning again asking if i was free later on..
I once again told her that i was, and we agreed to meet up for some more coffee
So basically we chilled in a *secluded* booth in the coffee shop for a couple of hours. I was impressed cos she was pretty forward with the k-close.. so technically she went in for the k-close and i just followed on from it.
That should be relevant to your above post Prince Today was basically afew hours of hooking up at the coffee shop.
I'm pretty happy with this since i only met her like 3 days ago and already things are going smoothly... tis my first authentic successful pickup.. so yay for me

P.S - the first time i tried the "direct-cute" line, the girl was there with her fiance.. she looked young! lol.. so Shot down in flames 1st time, epic win 2nd time haha.

Btw, i was never a fan of teh indirect "i need an opinion on something...", i agree that it may be more appropriate (and easier to do) in many situations, but i find for me personally that it doesnt work, i cant really follow on from it..
At least with the direct SoI, you set the scene and dynamic of the relationship from the get-go, establishing that you are confident, direct, unashamed, and awesome!

ohh also, just to reinforce how important Eye contact is --> She was tlking to me about my approach and all the other guys who have approached her, and she complimented me on the fact that i held good long eye contact.. and she also happened to mention that its liek a "Piercing gaze".. this can be very powerful, like she is melting from the eye contact, very seductive.. So, Never EVER underestimate the power of EC!

Cheers,

That's it, booya

That's what I'm talking about

haha amen man!
I'll keep y'all updated on what happens next

-Fr33stylez

well this is indeed inspiring.

i do lot of college game.....my area.

but direct approach at places at bus stops is what i feel nervous.

time to do it!

Yeah, i find that direct approach should be done in places where you dont need to hang around.. in my example, i approached a girl sitting by herself somewhere where i didnt need to be, so i could eject anytime. But at the bus stop (assuming you're waiting for a bus), if things turn sour, you cant really eject since you have to wait at the bus stop too.
Does that make sense?
If so, good so i'd go indirect game, or situational opener at places like a bus stop, simply because its slightly more natural when you're just standing round with others..
But hey, whatever you feel like doing will work provided its done correctly, with the right body language, tonality, delivery, etc.

Plus, at bus stops ppl tend to be standing around more closely together, so your approach will be heard by all in the vicinity.. thats abit of added pressure to you (and to the girl i'm sure)

Haha this is great and inspirational.

I believe that Day Game is way better than Night Game (clubbing) because Night Game you REALLY need to try hard and go through ANY obstacle (boyfriends, the target's friends, loud music, bouncers, alcohol, smoking, etc) while Day Game it's easier, no pressure or anything, and most of all it's actually more efficient. I personally will try this out and keep you updated!

That's all you need - that's the only way I ever made any progress from my very nerdy secluded life to where I am now - now no guy I know does what I do. I always get the most attractive girls at the party dancing and laughing, more than one at a time half the time. I think what helps is that it's not even something I set out to do - it's just a decision I make in the moment.

Even if it goes badly - that's still material for you to boost your confidence with! You tell yourself that you still did what no other guy is willing to do, and you are learning from it and making a difference in your life.

Think about it - 28,000 days in your life (or whatever it is) what are you going to do with them all - walk around like an AFC? Fuck no. That drive is the only thing that gets shit done. That's the only way to lose weight, build muscle, quit smoking, get girls - whatever you want to happen in your life.

hey man this is a very cool post. looks like we did the same opener in the same place (Melbourne city!)... very brave of you it usually takes me 2 hours of walking before i can approach
