Basically I can open, usually with something situational, but from that my "game" fizzles". Basically, what kind of things do i need to do/say that can lead me to number closes and day-1s

there is so much info on this site for that kind of stuff. look at some routines if you don't have any ideas. Basically you want to be playfull and exciting but only stick around as long as you need. (the quicker the better) and once she seems to be open to you tell her you need to be somewhere, hand her your phone and say put your number in. Don't ask for it. Honestly don't ask for anything, I dont ask for dates, numbers or anything if you want something from them you tell them not ask. " Here put your number in, I wanna take you out sometime" or "I wanna call you sometime" or if she is responding well to the dominance you can say "I'm going to take you out" "I'm going to call you tonight"
