So me and a friend of us decided to just go with the two of us to a party with complete strangers. My friend knew a girl and she asked if we would tag along, to meet her friends and such (she would, if necesarry, help us with picking up girls).
Basicly, we just had some pre-drinking with a couple of friends and later on we would meet with them. Later at night we went to the bar (which was overcrowded, but only one available) and me and my friend were just having fun. We opened a couple of sets, ranging between HB6 tot HB8.
So me and my friend are new to the field, but we are incorporating the general thoughts of this (awesome) subreddit. We started talking to the first 2 girls and sadly enough, things weren't going that well. The 2nd couple we talked to, didn't go that well for me, but it did for my friend. What started as him wingmanning me, quickly turned around. Yet, we didn't manage to get a number-close, etc.
That girl (the friend of my wingman) finally showed up, but she was so wasted my friend had to take care of her (friendzone, but in fact he doesn't care, he sees her as his sister). We just continued having fun afterwards, but sadly enough we didn't get any numbers or such.
One thing I might have forgotten to add: it was Chrystosomos (that means 100 more days until high school is over), so all the people present at the bar were younger, and we noticed that they were staying in their own little group. We talked to everyone (even to this one homophobic guy, even though neither of us are gay) and had a great time, just no pick-ups.
We did learn couple of things:
Don't go to an overcrowded bar
Just be confident and have fun
Don't be too drunk! (damn you wingwoman!)
Don't care about rejection, the night is still young and fun
Edit without actually editing: A friend of ours told us were probably going to end up with some girl, because we were doing so well (he isn't a PUa/sedditor), so I guess we were doing pretty well? But we'll keep on improving, that's for sure!
there doesn't seem to be anything here
