I wrote this guide as a way to get as much constructive criticism as possible. This is composed of everything useful that I use in my game and would like to improve. As you read, please look out for places that I could do better with/without and what to add to this. If you don't want to post a response to this, then please take the time to at least vote so I can get a better idea of the guide.
Opening
A lot of guys seem to put an emphasis on how imperative it is to have an awesome opener, however, it is the
LEAST important part.
Simply put, it doesn't matter what you say as long as you approach. Open with whatever you want as long it is something that is congruent to you. If you happen to be a very shy lad, it is probably for the best that you don't perform the "Claw" on someone, instead, just put your hand out for them to shake, smile, and say "Hello".
Of course, there are two types of openers, Direct and Indirect.
Direct openers convey your interest quickly, an example would be, "You were too cute to just pass up. Hi, I'm Michael." This is direct because you are conveying interest at the very beginning of the meet, in fact, the whole reason you introduced yourself was because she captured your interest.
Indirect openers are the more "Under the radar" techniques used in canned routines. "Hey guys, who lies more, men or women," is a opener with the approach of hiding your interest in the girl you like and puts the focus on the question at hand.
Of course, every woman knows what you're actually there for, them.
False time constraints stress that won't be in set for very long. Why would be useful? Chances are that if the girl you are trying to pick up is a genuine Hb 7-10, she gets approached by a lot of guys frequently, so when you open she might think to herself, "Great,
another guy, how long is he going to be here for?"
This frame of mind isn't useful at all, if you simply use a FTC, she will hear you out because you already told her that you're about to leave at any given moment, she might as well listen.
Example: "Hey, I have to go somewhere really quick, but *Your opener*." The "
really quick part of the sentence is your false time constraint.
Once you reach a hook point, and the actual conversation has actually started, dropping a FTC gives the target the impression that you're leaving again. By always seeming to be on the verge of leaving, she will experience the fear of loss.
There is also a way to deal with "Flakes" by using a FTC, but that's for a later lesson.
Logistics are the details of the given situation, be it transportation, friends that your target is with, belief systems, how far you and your target are from a good sex location and so forth. I placed this in the opening section when really, it belongs somewhere
before.
Having good logistics are key to getting lays and should be planned ahead of time before you go out.
Why is that? Well for one, If I decide to go to San Antonio, I live in Houston, that's a two hour+ trip. If I go to a venue and hook up with an amazing Asian 10,(I have a thing for Asians) I can't bring her to my place because it's two hours away!
The logistics are
so bad that I have
better odds of getting laid in the back of a taxi or a public bathroom because the Logistics are better there.
Now, usually hot babes tend to go out with friends, you very seldom find a true 10 by herself, so the logistics are, how many friends is she with, are there any guys in set, is she the designated driver of the group, etc.
It is important to note that when you open a set where the Hb isn't by herself, you don't have to open the entire group because in an environment in which loud music is being blasted, drinks are being bought and passed around, dancing and movement is rampant, they'll likely be more occupied with other matters than your approach.
Of course, not every environment gives you a one-on-one logistic for free, if you're doing cold approach at a mall, coffee shop, store, etc, then the group will take notice you.
Don't freak out, I have a solution. When you open your desired woman and you feel everyone else's gaze falling upon you, simply turn, look at them, introduce yourself with a handshake and return to the woman.
If the target is in a two-set, this is where things get a little complicated. The logistics in this scenario are falling to your disadvantage because the target is with a friend, relative, boyfriend or whatever.
*If the target is with a female friend, it's necessary to have a wing occupy her while you deal with the target. If no wing is available, you can do a few things, the first, you can merge the two-set with another group and make it into a larger group so instead of dealing with an original two-set, you now have a three+ set to work with. The 2nd, more realistic way of dealing with a two with no wing is to work them enough and sooner or later, you'll get to isolate because the friend will see what is going on eventually.
*If the target is with a male friend, you can have a female wing occupy the male while you game the target. If solo, go up to the girl, get close and whisper in her ear, "Tell him that I'm your gay friend." It may seem counter intuitive to do this, but this builds a bond as you two are sharing a secret between each other and disarms the potential AMOG. When she turns to him and says, "This is my gay friend," just simply turn to the guy and say, "Hey bro, I just need three minutes, three minutes, ok?" What this does is knock the guy back as he starts to process what is going on. "Gay friend, three minutes, three minutes, ok," He just can't say no given the circumstance. Three minutes should be enough time to number close. <I learned this from RSD.
*If the two-set involves a relative, whether male or female, pretend as if they are ugly friends of the target. Again, having a wing never hurts, but if you go out alone just work the set until the relative gets the picture and lets you isolate. See first example.
*If the two-set involves a boyfriend, look at the male friend example. The only difference is that your frame should be stronger. In the end, even though the logistics were not in your favor, you can still pull a successful close. Which brings me to the next topic.
