And failed. Miserably. I am just an afc, actually a rafc, I know a lot of pickup theory. But never really applied it in real life. 2 hours ago I set a target at a lolcal rink. I told my wing to follow me, and we made a train, we took another guy who was with us and made a ppl train when we passed her by I took her hand and said: "c'mmon!". She noded negatively. I didn't say a thing untill the rink round ended. Then I walked to her and said: "Were you afraid there? U didn't want to join our train..". She:"No....". and left. I should be pretty broken now. But the results to the IT olimpiad in my country just arrived, and my name is on the top of the list with 100/100. So I got the golden medal! (just bragging). Well, whatever, I failed. I am the kinda guy that learns everything but doesn't apply anything... I read over 1500 pages of pickup material and watch webinars and shit.. just to be cut off in 3 seconds from the aproach.. I feel like a shit.

Hey man

I'm still an AFC myself.. rAFC maybe even tho IDK where to start.. But I can say this
Don't feel like shit.. it was your first try.. work out the kinks and get back out there

Just reverse your way of doing going things.. Instead of reading 500 theorys and applying like 1 or 2 irl..
Read like 1 or 2 theorys and apply them to 500 irl!

Idk.. Just rambling

Hope it helped

Dude wtf are you talking? You approached, and that is success. Just keep trying. Its a numbers game, sometimes you just meet someone who is not in the mood for talking. And remember, they have no idea who you are so if they reject you, they reject some random dude and not you, because they dont know you.

Next time dont give up that easy. Just go after her with "you are not getting away that easy" with a smile on your face.

Keep approaching and good luck!
