Yesterday night I reached important milestone by bedding a girl I met just couple hours earlier. Many lessons learned.

First of all I've been practicing game for about 3-4 months now. Suffering is the most accurate word that describes my experience throughout this period. I did have fun conversations with guys and girls occasionally. But the desperation of going home alone again and again was taking over all these little moment of pleasure. These few months completely changed how I view nights out. Before I was looking for fun time with my social circle. Now every night out turns into a nightmare where I torture my own ego by burning sets left and right. Hopefully going forward this will change, and the night yesterday was a major breakthrough.

The night started really bad. I opened a two-set which burned me down to ashes. The opening was weak, but I still decided to plow and go as far as I can. The girl recognized all this and was in control all the time. At some point she asked if I'm alone, and I mumbled something about a friend who's about to show up. And this is after all the great advice in this thread: http://www.reddit.com/r/seduction/comments/29wssz/going_solo_how_do_you_deal_with_where_are_your/

Anyway, this set devastated me, and the hope for building up the state disappeared.

But nevertheless I proceeded with my schedule, and hit another bar where I noticed a cute Asian girl sitting alone. I grabbed a drink and came over to say hi. She appeared to be an 8, but later I had to downgrade to 6, giving an extra point for her personality. We started casually chatting, soon her friend came back with drinks and we had general interview-like conversation. E.g. no game played whatsoever. Then we switched bars couple times, and eventually she started asking about my place. After that she just called an uber for her friend and went with me without much pressure from my side. Important lesson she taught me during the brunch where we discussed the night. She said she felt like I was hesitant and that she had to make the final move. During the few breaks where her friend was going to the restrooms she was expecting me to escalate, or at least find out the sentiments. Instead I was talking about how cool are the paintings in the bar.

After all this I'm feeling like I grew an inch taller and of course that all the suffering begins to pay off. I hope that from now on the fun will start taking over the pain.

Some of the lessons learned:

  • there are bitches in this world. Ignore them
  • open another set
  • don't hesitate to escalate
  • going solo can be fun
  • the game is a strategy, not a script to be followed word to word.
