Guys I’ve been a lurker for sometime of this thread, and I wanna say it has changed my life. Thanks so much for the tips and guidelines, in return I want to share this story of mine. This is a story of a k-close, but could’ve been a f-close easily if I had the balls to push on!! It shows results doesn’t come easily, the game doesn’t come naturally, but if you really work hard to combat your AA, you really won’t regret it.

13 hour flight from Melbourne to Dubai, this HB8 German girl 19 year old was sitting beside me. This was plain luck and circumstance, and was thinking for a long time how to approach her. I’m a 22 year old Asian, so at first I was thinking I’m never going to get this girl, but I thought about what I read about in Reddit about having that I’m awesome mindset, and I can do anything because I should aim for the sky since I’m cool even though I don’t get anything.

She looks bored, so I open conversation with just a simple

“So where you’re flying to?”

“Dubai then to Germany, you?

“Dubai then to Netherlands. What are you doing in Melbourne?”

Talk then goes into mundane informative stuff like our backgrounds, her travel work holiday in Australia. But KEY is that I initiated a little bit of kino slowly, like brushing my leg against hers, and punching her on the shoulder when I make a joke, and most importantly staring deep in her eyes when having a conversation. Small things like doing the map thing on the thighs, she was wearing nice flower earrings so I paid her a simple compliment

“Your earings look really pretty, where’d you get those from? I’d like to buy them *Grins cheekily”

“*Giggles, thanks. I got them from Sydney”

I saw she was wearing old bracelets with Chinese symbols on them and took no hesitation to escalate the kino

“*Took her hand, oh those look interesting, do you know what it means?” I took out my phone which happened to have a chinese dictionary and took my time to look up each and every world.

“No, but I got them from an old woman from Bali, she said it meant water, fire, earth, thunder. Is that true? what do they mean?”

“*I look those four words up in my dictionary and they actually mean none of those. I rejoice and placed my finger on each of those symbols explaining what each of them meant, while HOLDING HER HAND THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE PROCESS” She giggles sometimes and I think my effort to form rapport worked. It turned out while I was only in Dubai for one day, she was going to ABD straight from Dubai for a week. My heart sank. But I didn’t give up, seeing if I could get her on an insta-date after the flight:

“I’m checking into a hotel for the whole day, why don’t you come hangout in Dubai with me the whole day then go to ABD in the evening?”

“Mmm clearly hesitating sounds good.” My heart jumped.

“I notice a small turtle on her other bracelet on the same hand Is that a turtle? escalating kino again”

“Yes it is, Old lady said it brought good luck to me *giggles”

“Do you know that in some parts of Asia we eat turtles for soup? It’s really healthy for our body.”

*talk then goes into food, I ask her whats her favourite food, tease her about Germany’s (girls) are all about bread and sausages, a claim she obviously refutes, but it makes for light and playful conversation.

Fast forward to Dubai when we landed, we took bags and went to my hotel room. I wanted to do something here but didn’t feel the time was right? What should I have done here? Should I have done something? I mean I just had a 13 hour flight with her, I feel that if anything this would the ripe spot to make a move.

However, because of my inaction, we decided to hangout whole day around the city, first we went to a theme park where there was so much opportunity for kino. I was beginning to feel I was getting no where at the end of the theme park though. My game was failing me. I won a teddy bear for her in one of those carnival booth type games, and also during one of the roller coaster rides I grabbed her hand, but pretty much walked separately throughout the whole time. I kept making excuses to myself that I will escalate to some permanent hand holding later but I kept having AA every time I thought about it.

Then I decided to make it a little more easier for myself and suggested we went to a beach. She was quite receptive to it and said she’ll even bring her bikini. I think when things aren’t going your way you kinda have to change plans to create more favourable opportunity.

We then went to the beach, in our beachwear, and she pulled off a fantastic bikini. I complimented everything about her, and when we were in the water I tried to kino as much as possible to get her more comfortable for a kiss later on. I tickled her, got her to piggyback me, piggybacked her myself, and while she was piggybacked she even joked about throwing me into the water. It seemed she was in good spirits, and I was stoked. She even asked if I had a girlfriend. I felt the time was ripe. Yet again I froze on the walk back to the taxi stand and didn’t grab her hand or to kiss, it was incredibly frustrating because I picked up on so many IOIs already.

Finally back at the hotel room, she was packing her bags, and my heart was screaming “just fucking grab her and kiss her already” but mind says “later, later”. One thing I realised is that for every urge in you to do something, there will be a counter-urge for you not to do it. You must recognise that counter-urge and just say “have a nice big cup of the shut the fuck up to it”.

So there I was, having blue balls as she was slipping away. I finally plucked the courage to give her a hug as a pretext, and as I was releasing her, I looked hard into her eyes and asked “can I give you a kiss?”. She looked at me sheepishly and without waiting for an answer I planted my lips on hers right then there. I felt really shit later because she actually was quite receptive with the kiss I should’ve stayed on for while before coming up for air. It wasn’t really a make out per se and I think if I had been more bold it would’ve evolved into a f-close as the bed was just next to us. Nevertheless, although I wanna kick myself for that, I was still happy I did something.

Later, when sending her off at the taxi stand, and armed with more courage, I hugged her again, and this time gave her a more full on kiss. She definitely kissed me back this time as I gave her time to, her mouth was open when I leaned in as I could tell she was kinda expecting it since I kissed her just then. Girls actually want it but guys if you don’t make a move nothing will ever happen.

As she was getting into the taxi, she looked at me and her words in response were “wish I had more time to spend with you.” And BAM end of story. I walked back to my room, brimming with confidence and elated emotions.

Later she texts me she misses me and the teddy bear is lying next to her. I’m supremely happy not because I k-closed, although that is relevant, but most of all I have managed to seduce a girl. An Asian getting a HB8 German girl. I might go visit her again as I really like her. But I just wanna say thanks to all sedditors who made this happen.

TLDR; met HB8 German on plane, got her to change her plans to come to my hotel, had AA all the way, spend a whole day with her, almost let her slip away, and finally had the courage to k-close twice.

Any feedback and comments, how I should've handled things differently, are welcome.
