I went to church last night. Me and my friend were looking for pretty girls to sit nearby so we could introduce ourselves but we didn't spot any so we picked some empty seats.

After about 5 minutes into the service, three people walk in and sit next to us. 1 guy and 2 girls. I didn't pay much attention. It was only until halfway through the service when I looked over and saw how pretty she was.

So the entire time after that I just sat there trying to figure out what to say. The service was about dating. The pastor was telling a story about another pastor who took his date to taco bell for the first date. Now they're married 15 years. He then said how he took his wife to this super expensive restaurant for their 17 year anniversary and noticed a couple sitting nearby. They overheard the other couple and realized it was their first date. The story finishes with if this is your first date, where will you take her in 15 years?? "Pace yourself, buddy!" The joke of the story was to start out easy like taking her to taco bell.

Near the end of the service I finally decided what I was going to say. I would look over and ask about the ring on her ring finger. If she says yes it's a wedding ring then I could just ask for her opinion about what if I asked her if she wanted to go to taco bell. If it's not a wedding ring then I would just straight up ask her if she wanted to go to taco bell. So I look over at her.

"Hey I want to ask you a question. I noticed you have a ring there, is that a wedding ring?"

She replies "No, it's just a ring"

I say "Okay, here's another question, would you like to go to taco bell sometime?"

She smiles and says "Sure."

Then a little small talk ensues and I introduce my friend sitting next to me. Only when I introduce him, my friend didn't hear me and he got up to leave. Stupid me I followed him. I realize this was the dumb part. What I should've done was ask for her number. Although I still haven't quite grasp that concept yet. How do I ask her for her number without looking like an AFC? Any specifics here?

We went and got our bread and came back. After the service was over I asked her "so can I get your number?" She just said "Oh I'll just see you next week." Yah.... not the best... I realize I should have figured out some other way to get her number but I couldn't think of anything. Suggestions?

So my question for you guys is what would you have done differently? Maybe you would have hit her with some negs beforehand. Maybe I could've talked to her earlier. But then what can I say? I'm not really good when I need to say things on the fly.

Anyways yah, sorry it's so long. I was just proud of myself that I built up enough courage to actually talk to her. What would you have done?

Seeing as she's a "church girl" ask her if she knows how to play Organ. If she responds "yes", then drop your pants.

Sounds like you had hardly any rapport with her, why should she give your her number, u have any idea how many creeps there are out there?

Nevermind 'negs' or whatever they're called, you should have sparked up some more convo with her, find out what interests her, makes her tick and make a connection.

You dont really need much rapport for a fast number close tbh, but after she agreed to give you her number your next statement should have been "ok what is it?" as you whip out your phone. Now expect to get a lot of bad numbers and non-responses with the Taco Bell opener but cheers on having the balls to make the move, its good practice.

If he had built more rapport chances would be greater of getting a number, and one that's actually hers.

I think you spent too much time thinking about what to say. You should have just approached. The best way would have been to build rapport with the guy. Easy questions for the guy - "hey man, what you think? it's Taco Bell all the way for me" "Do you come here often? haven't seen you around before". It's easy to build rapport with the guy and if you do it well, he'll introduce you to the girls, and you'll be seen almost as part of them.

Oooh yah... that's where I made the mistake. I should've talked to her friend. I read so much on these things but then I always forget in the moment. Okay okay.

Go direct dude, cut the shit and say,

"Hey, I have something to tell you... You're absolutely adorable. What is your name?"
"(HB Name)"
"I'm _______"

Church game is soooooooo easy it's not even funny. I think being at church is a huuuuuuge DHV in and of itself because Christians are technically only supposed to date with each other. Going to church automatically puts you into that category as a suitable bf. Combined that with the fact that girls have such low defense at church (I mean, it's church. Who the hell does pickup at a church?), and you have pretty good chances of picking up tons of girls. The downfall is that Christians aren't supposed to have premarital sex. If you're fine with that, then you may as well stick with church game. Otherwise, go somewhere else, hah.

talking to the friend is retarded, dont care what the socalled PUAs say

Hahah yeah the only reason that tacobell line worked is because the pastor was talking about it.

If things didn't work out.. don't sweat it. There's millions of other girls out there, take it as a learning experience.

Btw, I wouldn't count you out totally yet. You can still make a comeback, given it's a good one. What that might be, I don't really know.
