The "hi" warm up is a great exercise! Another good one is going around the bar and asking random questions. "do you have the time" "what kind of beer is that" are you having a good time" "you look familiar" it helps you warm up to talking to people and social proofs you at the same time!

Ok, so me and a friend went out to do the Newbie Mission today. We went to town, split up and started. At first I warmed up a bit, smiling to everyone I saw, that I could get eye-contact with, but the problem turned out to be that no one would hold it for long! I would look them straight in the eye when they were a distance away, smile, and then they looked down and to the side almost every time. This resulted in that I only managed to say "Hi" a couple of times, and everytime they would give no response, they probably didn't think I was speaking to them... I ended up going to groups of girls, and simply ask them for direction to the "nearest" whatever.

So a little question at the end, is there a way to get them to keep eye contact with you, atleast long enough for you to say "Hi" to them?

You don't have to keep the eye contact to say hi. Say hi anyway. LOUDER. Have a strong presence. If they don't hear you SAY IT AGAIN and even LOUDER.

Ok, thanks! Looks like I might have to try again!
But will asking for directions help as much? I somehow feel a tad more comfortable doing so.

One of the best lessons that the Seduction Community teaches is that you need to push yourself out of your comfort zone. That's really the only way to grow!

Asking for directions gives you an excuse to talk to someone. That's weak, bro. Just saying "hi," as simple as it sounds, is without excuse and it involves putting yourself out on the line more. There is much to learn from putting yourself in such a situation.

If you feel comfortable, you're not growing.

Thanks man, I believe this is going to help me alot! This is hard for me, however easy it may sound, but I will do it until it's no longer a big deal and will post here again when it's not. Most likley giving you a huge thanks

brand new to this pua, but i did this last night at a beach bar/club and it worked phenomenally. probably 50% of the girls actually wanted to stick around and chat - surprisingly enough the better looking girls.

shit, i was having such a great time that i was hitting on fat girls, girls right next to their bf's (saying what's up to them too) and old people too, even the dudes; i had an interesting run in with one guy who i just saw with his girlfriend, went up and did the whole, "yo bro! what's up man i haven't seen you in a while...crazy seeing you here, how are ya?" and he gave me the, i guess this is like an AMOG?, "not good, not good." but in a douchey way and i got super cereal and said how i felt bad and hope he gets better. then me and my wing are just all over the place talking to EVERYONE and on the way out that dude actually grabbed us and we were all clowning around and he said he was doing a lot better. that was definitely interesting.

it helped that i knew one of the bartenders from a couple years ago (she was my BFF girlfriend's roommate) and i hit it off with her with a crazy shit ton of energy and she was tossing me free drinks all night - definitely felt good and i suppose gave me a heap of social proof.

had a fun ass time and i almost went in a little too much with one chica i met - i tried to change the mission from say hi to every girl to an n-close which i didn't even really try to do with anyone but my wing pulled me out of it. he's not so convinced by pua yet and thinks our game is fine the way it is - yakno he thinks we're using some other guy's game which, in a sense is true but like everyone says, they're building blocks [structure].

thanks for the sick exercise! i've never had this much fun being retarded with strangers in a bar.

So today I did the newbie mission, I went out, smiled, and said hi to girls. What happened, they gave me this blank 'Are you talking to me... Freak' Stare. So I changed the tactic a little bit, and instead of saying 'Hi' I would make a small comment about them e.g. the first girl I said she had nice glasses. That was when things started to pick up, and girls started to open up, and telling me about themselves. There was three main girls who I had quite long conversations with.

But I must confess, as I needed something to comment on, I didn't do it to EVERY girl, just the ones I could think of something to say, as 'Hi' just wasn't working.

I've never really been an AFC. Dated a lot then I married an HB9 when I was 23, just got divorced last fall. Been having pretty good success with online dating.
I did a variation of this assignment last week. I started at Home Depot. I said hi or hello to about the first 5 or six women I walked by. This was pretty easy for me. I remembered reading something someone here wrote about the "I want to make love to you look". I'd been using that look with success for years (was married for 23 yrs, she stopped loving me 10 years ago but I got laid reguarly even after she filed for divorce, that look plus keeping track of her cycle). So I thought I would see if I could get them to say hi first. It worked on every one (about four, only one was a HB) they all said hi with a big smile. Next I went to the drugstore to pick up a prescription. I wasn't trying anything but I might have had some carryover from my previous stop. When I made eye contact with a hot 30 something phamacist (probably from India) she smiled and quickly looked away trying to hide her smile, then took another peek back at me. There may be a day game challenge there for me next refill. Then I went to Wallmart, said hi to about 4 or 5 women before I got out of sight of the front door. Felt like a Wallmart greeter so then I only said hi to HB8+ women. I had a lot of fun with this assignment. Ready for a bigger challenge.

I did this at my local mall. I said Hi to EVERY female who was not a kid or actively having an angry cell phone conversation. I noticed a lot of fat ladies smiled and said "Hi" back. A lot of older ladies chose to ignore me. Some women in my age group (mid 20s) returned the greeting while seeming suspicious lol. I just laughed and kept on. Only stop I had was a lady trying to sell me something. I got tired of her wasting my time and excused myself. That's about it.

iv done this mission but posted it in the wrong place in general questions

I did this mission today. It went well I feel had a couple of ummmm...hello looks, a few replies along a similar vein and once person who stood and maintained the conversation for a short while. All in all a success

I did this mission today in a grocery and it went very well. Almost all women I said hello to, said hello back. In the beginning I was a bit nervous but when I got over it and said ''hello'' with a smile I got a lot of good reactions.

Conclusion: it went well:)
