So I just got out from a night out downtown. Im still new to PUA, so I went in with a routine stack for backup. I noticed though, as a 2 set opened me in the line. That I found myself reverting back to my AFC ways which is pretty much entirely cocky/funny soundbites and no actual content/not sticking to script.

My stack consisted of routines, cold reads, compliance tests, stories etc. The girls were basically just throwing shit tests. Most of the convo was the girls discussing how they were dykes which they werent, and joking around. So using cocky coldreads (good one/bad one) and negs felt very appropriate and easy. But routines like cs vs u's or best friends test just didnt seem appropriate or like it would hook. They were like friendly bitches if that gives a perspective. So the conversation sizzled out and basically was just negs and cocky funny which is how I was pre game.

Another set opened me and I tried BF test. They didnt look at each other and they were being rather prickish and skeptical about the whole ordeal. So when the bf test didnt work, I basically afc fluffed and ejected.

Basically my question is I understand the need for calibration but how do you make these routines appropriate and effectively work? The only set I saw success from BF test and Cs Vs Us was on two cute chubby girls who were just overly friendly and open to anything. How do you use the routines on the bitchy, sarcastic, girls.
