Went out with friends and ended up at a bar that clearly had a birthday group partying it up. Probably 8 women and 3 dudes. One of them was absolutely gorgeous and was wearing the hottest outfit. I struck up a random conversations with people around the bar area and when the [HB9] went to the bathroom, I positioned myself in the way of her table for when she came back. She was clearly tanked but having a great time. As she came past me on her way back I made my move.

"Excuse me" I began. I'm a polite gentleman. "I know this is really awkward, but I think your friend over there [pointing to an HB8] is really cute. I don't know how to introduce myself, especially in front of all of her friends. Do you think you could do the introduction for me? I'm [Seducedbyreddit]".

We had about a 5 minute conversation where we exchanged pleasantries and interrogation questions. I even joked that I was running out of stereotypical first date questions so clearly she should be my best friend by that point.

Then the most magical thing happens. She calls her friend ([HB8]) over and introduces me. Before I can say anything, [HB9] gives the run down of who I am, where I work, where I went to school....and then tells her friend why I had stopped her and goes "I thought it was really cute and that you should meet him".

I talk to HB8 for a bit, and after 10 minutes or so I said "I've clearly stolen you away from a party, which wasn't my intention at all. I'll let you get back to your friends, but can I have your number so that we can continue this at a more appropriate time?" She agreed and numbers were exchanged. She went back to her friends, and I went back to mine.

The rest of my night, at this point, was gravy. I had # closed an [HB8], something that is still a rarity for me. My friends thought I was baller, as they have all been trying to talk to women the whole night with little success.

But right as I was about to call it a night and head home, [HB9] comes strolling back over to my group and throws her arm over my shoulder in a "buddy-buddy" way. I introduce her to my friends and joke that she should hook her friends up with them. She laughs and tells me they are moving on, and asks to see my phone. Says she wants to make sure we exchange phone numbers as well so that if I treat [HB8] bad, she'll know how to get a hold of me. And "if I treat her well and it doesn't work, she'll still know how to get a hold of me."

Pretty sure my friends still haven't picked their jaws up off the floor.
