I feel like a really solid pull, persistence and dealing with objectiona is like 90% of the game

Im not really sure if all the atuff before that is really THAT important on a date.

If she already agreed to go on a date most guys can probably get away with just doing small talk, throwing in some dhv stuff about travelling and hobbies, NOT SAYING WEIRD OR CREEPY SHIT and then doung a really solid pull to the apartment.

Like seeding the pull and then giving her a really good excuse to come to your place, depending on the girl, like showing her some cool souvenirs, or awesome vuew from the balcony, your dog etc.
