I've been on here for a while and haven't submitted a FR before so I'm hoping I can contribute with this lengthy ramble in exchange for some advice, without getting torn to bits and crying myself to sleep tonight.

Friday night, I went out to a rave/concert/club with a big group of friends. As we stood in line, I noticed a group of three roommates I know relatively well from running into them at shows quite often; An HB6 i had k-closed years ago, an HB7 I've flirted with on several occassions, and an HB9 who comes off as cold and I dismissed previously as out of my league. I didn't say hi because the HB6 is usually uninterested in talking, and the HB9 probably doesn't remember me even though I've met her multiple times. I figure approaching the HB7 inside the venue will be more effective.

So we get in there and the crowd is packed, so our group stands on the side. Everyone kind of stood there just staring toward the front, not really doing anything. We were boring. I then decided to grab my buddy and make a round to see who the night has to offer. I was pretty drunk so details about what I said and did aren't very clear. However, I did pick up on a few things.

So Ray and I are walking around and he is very eager. I can sense this and it starts stressing me out (my social anxiety can get triggered pretty easily with pressure). So I tell him he needs to relax and have fun with himself because it's a little too obvious he's looking to pick up. Meanwhile, we are standing next to an HB8 and her HB7 friend who's with a guy. I start dancing with the people around me, trying to engage them in a spontaneous dance circle. Ray immediately faces the two girls and stands there, staring at them. I can sense this is a bad move so I grab his attention so he turns from them. The girls are dancing with eachother to my right (I dont know if the guy was still there but I remember at some point he was cool with me being around) so I start dancing with them for a few seconds then turn back to my friend on my left. I begin shifting between these two positions, giving off the impression that I'm really into the music and just doing my thing - I'm indifferent about who I'm dancing with just having a good time. Also keep in mind that I'm pushing with my body language each time I turn away from them back toward my friend. Eventually it gets to the point that they are matching my enthusiasm for the music/dance and I spin them both one at a time, showing no preference to either. I think at this point it is fairly obvious that the HB7 is with that guy so I get closer to the HB8. Ray isn't seeing many results and asks me if I want to keep going. I tell the girls I have to find my friends and that maybe I'll see them later. (Skill focused on in this set: body language).

We continue through the crowd and we run into the 3 roommates mentioned before. I begin dancing obnoxiously, joking that I don't see them and I'm just some weird guy in their comfort zone. The HB7 turns to see that it's me and laughs. I hug her, greet the HB6, then I lock eyes with the HB9 and ask her if she knows who I am. She say's no, I say smile and I say 'cool' and just keep dancing along loving my life. Ray and I continue making our round and eventually head back to our group.

After some more sets, i make my way back to the HB7 and HB8 with the guy. I start dancing with them again and they seem pretty into it. After a few minutes the HB7 grabs the HB8 close as I've done many times after a girlfriend has given me the 'Save me!' look. I realize I've done something wrong and turn to dance with the people around me. I eventually leave the set but come back about a half hour later to try again. At this point the HB8 is very engaged with me but eventually stops and asks me: "hey did I see you smoking weed earlier?" I respond "yes, is that something you're into?" Her: "I've never done a drug in my life. I think that's disgusting" I attempt to have a philisophical conversation with her about how our experiences are obviously different but that shouldn't affect my relationship with her, and she shoots me down. - In retrospect I cared too much about her approval. I think I should have been more of a smartass about it or just ejected.

At this point Ray's attempts start wreaking of desperation so I decide to part from him. I return to the 3 roommates, start dancing with their group of friends then begin my eye contact/ smile with the HB9. I get her pretty engaged and she asks me my name. I say 'I've given it to you several times before'. She appologizes and says she'll try to remember. I point to my cheek as if she has to kiss me in exchange for my name. She goes in for it and I slyly turn my face to have her make contact with my lips. I quickly pull away after contact with a shit-eating grin on my face and turn to keep dancing with other people in the area for a split second. I then turn back to see her look of surprise and put my my hand on the back of her neck/head to pull her in for a whisper. I tell her "my name's Justkeepdrinking", which she can barely hear because I had lost my voice at that point, and then I spin away but bring her close to me as she returns. At this point we're dancing head on and I eventually K-close. She turns around and I begin massaging her back, shoulders, neck and back of the head. We're both rolling so this feels pretty good for both of us. I kiss her on the ear then the neck and lips again. This is probably more detail than needs to be said but I'm still super hyped about it which leads to my fear of future beta moves. I digress. Eventually my friends tell me it's time to leave so I tell her I have to leave and ask her what her plans are, feeling doubtful that she would want to make the 40 minute drive home to my house in an overfilled car with people she didn't know, including one girl who I hooked up with last weekend. I tend to make a lot of excuses but I think getting the number was the better move as I felt intimidated by the idea of going back with her and her two roommates who I had history. You guys tell me.

Text Game: Here's where I need help So that night I texted her "if you don't remember my name in the morning we're going to have major problems". Her replies were pretty incoherent. She actually didn't remember my name but appologized several times and I told her I'd only give her my name again if she agreed to see me again in the upcoming week. She agreed and I asked at 5 pm the following day what she was up to, and told her "we should hang out tonight". She responded "Hi Justkeepdrinking (see what i did there) I'm actually visiting my parents tonight". I read this as a good sign as she was actually putting in some effort to make the conversation enjoyable.

The following day (Sunday), our conversation went soemthing like this: Me: We're making progress HB9 [referring to her frequent blacking out and memory loss]. I just woke up in another man's bed and I want to counteract that. [subtly suggesting that I'm interested in seeing her]. I hadn't heard a response for a few hours so I said. "Let me know before i get drunk and forget i asked" - probably not necessary. Several hours later she responded "lol. sorry i just woke up. not in a man's bed" Me: I'm picturing a lesbian scene. Nice. Her: Obviously. I'd take a snap chat but she's shy. Me: Well you gotta add me first. Me: (Waiting) Her: You add me I don't know how Me: You're not coming up Me: Apparently I didnt know how to do it either. [seriously couldnt figure it out] Her: :( Me: I figured it out. Check that shit. [at this point i saw she had accepted so i sent her a video. A few hours later no response, and she hadn't opened the snapchat yet] Me:I sent you a video. You owe me now. Her (this morning): Yea but there was no sound. I'm holding off for a little to respond because I need some direction

It's a miracle I've been able to keep her talking to me for this long because I really want to see her again and the hardest part is restraining myself from coming off as needy (which I may have done already). Also, I read her as cold in general, so I'm hoping that means she just has her guard up, but also it may be beta taking over that's causing me to over analyze everything.

So I hope some good can come of this FR. Whether it be successful pickup on the dance floor, some advice on how I could have done better, or how I can proceed with my text game to get a date with this girl.

TL;DR: K-closed HB9 on dancefloor and need help with text game for getting a date.
