Hello, I'm 18 years old, I swallowed the pill a couple of years back, and some weeks ago, I got out of the mental masturbation phase, I need your feedback, a lot of these girls are Muslims, that's because I live in Londonistan, I'm from a Muslim household myself (Afghan/Iranian).

Grade Below Me = GBM (I approached a lot of girls that were a year younger than I was because that year saw a huge influx of female admission into my High School).

Girl 1: GBM, Muslim, stopped her when we passed through the corridor and it was just us, I told her that I want her number, she asked why and I said I liked her and I wanted to get to know her better, she said she doesn't give out numbers. I'm aware that sometimes, girls will reject you at first but will warm up the second time, so a day later I bumped into her again and asked for her number, to which she said no.

Girl 2: Same grade, Hindu, I asked for her number, she also asked "why" and I responded that I feel she's a nice girl that I want to get to know better, she said she doesn't give out numbers, yet she can give me her Snapchat, I said "That's alright, bye" yet before I left, I told her that if she changes her mind, I'll still accept her number.

At this point, I realised that I'm asking, rather than state, and that's the downfall of those interactions.

The next two girls I asked were Eastern Europeans that I somewhat knew,

Girl 3: I adopted a new technique, don't ask, just get a piece of paper and pen, give it to them as you tell you to want their number, the girl shit tested asking "why?" about three times, I ignored the questions, but eventually gave up, just as I was about to leave, she looked at me and said "It's cool I'll give you my number lol".

Girl 4: GBM, Muslim, asked for her number, and she said "I don't know you and don't give out my number" and walked away.

Girl 5: Asked for her number and this time using the pen and paper technique and the statement, and she immediately wrote her number down and asked me to call her.

Group 1: This group was GBM, I knew a guy that knew the group as a whole and asked him to introduce me to them, the conversation was lackluster, I got no numbers, however, kater I ended approaching two of the girls in the group with the paper-statement technique and though I still failed to get their numbers a second time, it seems that I've established some form of a relationship which I could use to demonstrate minimal pre-selection.

Girl 6: GBM, Muslim, told her I wanted her number, she said she doesn't give out numbers and she doesn't know me, I introduced myself, asked for her name and she told me, then I told her I want her number again and in all this, she looked really nervous in a sort of way like "wait my dad's going to kill me if he sees me talking to a guy", asked a second time the next day, and she reinforced her points. Some days later, she was in a group and I knew one of the guys there, went up to talk to him (at the time I didn't notice she was there because she was sitting down) and she immediately got up and walked away from me.

Group 2: GBM, told them I was bored and wanted to talk about something fun, they didn't seem so concerned but I suppose given the weirdness of the situation, they excused themselves stating they're going to the local corner shop, and I said that's cool I have to go to class myself in a couple of minutes.

Girl 7: GBM, Muslim, approached her outside of school, just as we're leaving the school premise, I explained to her that I'm about to cross the road yet I thought we could introduce ourselves, (I did this to ensure her that I'm not some creep that's going to follow her, I am going to leave soon), I introduce myself, and she did herself, yet said that she has to call her friends so I told her okay, I'll be off then bye.

Girl 8: GBM, Muslim, also approached her outside of school, explained to her the crossing the road thing, I introduced myself, asked her name and she responded, yet from her body language, and given her religion, being familiar with the culture myself, I asked her if she's worried about her family relatives seeing her talk to a guy and she responded with a somewhat euthatistc yes, to which I didn't want to risk it, so I excused myself.

There was another girl I asked out, she kept asking why a lot, I ignored it, and she ended up telling another guy to ask me why to which he said "okay...umm, why?" (he didn't know what was going on) and that made me think "hold on, this isn't a shit test, if she's involving other guys, perhaps it's a warning?" Though I asked her the next day, and she looked at me and said: "Don't you already have my number on the group chat?" and I, having not realised it before, quick thinking told her that I respect consent, a playful conversation, yet no results are given that I already did have her number.

Feedback on how to improve the rate would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
