This is a bit of a weird FR because I'm actually going to talk about my wing. We are polar opposites in a way. He has huge AA and he can't cold approach open for shit. But once he is in a conversation with a woman he is quite impressive at his ability to move the process forward. I can cold approach and open like a legend. Among the guys I frequently go out with my ability to get a set of women open, engaged and involved is highly regarded but I cannot close to save my own life.

Yesterday a group of us went on a day long car trip to a beautiful city. My wing invited a girl we had met a while ago. He invited her so I was respectful and didn't make any moves. He wasn't doing anything all day except normal friendly conversation that we all were engaged in. After 12 or so hours he finally made his move and it started with a very simple routine that I have used myself several times.

He asked her if she was a dog or a cat person, i.e. did she prefer cats or dogs. This is a great routine because it leads to a cold reading: whichever one she chooses you can talk about the personality of people who prefer dogs or cats based on the stereotype attitudes of cats and dogs. You just say "people who prefer dogs are kind of like dogs and people who choose cats are kind of like cats". For example, dogs are loyal, they get excited about physical activity, they are more open emotionally. Cats are more secretive and they choose their friends carefully. The exact attributes aren't important since you are trying to associate positive things with her. You can also disparage the negative attributes (dogs are a bit clumsy and dumb, cats are aloof and snobby).

Then something happened that I have noticed hundreds of times in my life. We were walking back to the car and the group split. 3 of us walked at a normal pace and my wing and the girl started to walk very slowly as they conversed. We got to a point where the 3 of us ahead had to wait for them to catch up to us and even though they were only about 200m behind us it took almost 5 minutes for them to catch us up since they were walking so slowly. When we got to the parking garage they didn't rejoin the group but instead stood 3m away from us in a private conversation. They had isolated themselves from us simply using the pace that they walked at.

When we got into the car we had a 2 hour car trip back home. During those 2 hours they talked non-stop. What they talked about was almost entirely relationships. Her relationships with her parents. His relationship with his dog. Their relationships with past partners. Their relationships with various friends. What the events in those relationships meant about themselves. I was in awe. It was like I had a front row seat eavesdropping on a master at work. During that conversation she would say things like: "We totally have to do that ...", "When can we go and do that ...", "You have to take me there ...", "When you go there let me know and I'll show you around ...", etc.

These two major points are something I am going to work into my game. Get her talking about the relationships in her life and how those relationships define her as a person. Walk exaggeratedly slowly to isolate.
