I guess I should stress that this is for the posters who actually believe in 'game' as opposed to the more general seddit philosophy (self help/motivation/inner game).

Like, i'm talking too the people who think you are able to actually 'game' a girl and get her to be attracted to you if she isn't at first, and not the majority who feel it's all about 'making your intent known straight away and move on to the next girl if she's not interested' or 'Just get your life in check and the girls will come to you' people. (that's not true btw, lol)

I was in a bar and 2 girls are sitting down. Both like 18. The blonde is smoking hot and her friend is OK looking.

The bouncer makes the 'open' easy for me, as he moves our (me and a few friends) table right next to theirs to make room for an event happening later that night.

I'm like ''Hey! It looks like we're neighbours!'' and just start asking them about themselves, what they are up too etc. They are drinking a massive jug of a cocktail and I tease the hot one about it and get her laughing. I was surprised because she seemed friendly and receptive which i'm not that used too.

However, after a while i'd been talking to her friend a little to keep her from getting bored, but trying to concentrate on the hot blonde with more teasing, cold reading, asking her questions, trying to tell little stories etc, but even though she was receptive, she wasn't really 'pulling her weight' in the conversation in terms of asking me things back, filling in the silences etc, and CERTAINLY not giving me any IOI's that I could notice. Although, she was friendly, and seemed to get my sense of humour.

After about 20 minutes, they got up to go to the smoking area to chat to some of their friends.

Shortly after, me and my friends went to the smoking area too, and we bumped into them again. I fell into a short conversation with the friend of the hot blonde, and after a few minutes, the hot blonde called her friend over as they were about to leave to go to meet their friends in a different bar.

End of set.

I'm always trying to work out what, if anything, I could have done.

What else could I have done/said to make her attracted to me to the point I felt like I could escalate? I wasn't able to get 'attraction' in my eyes.

Should I have shown my sexual interest more, maybe with a statement of intent? Would that make sense given the situation(her apparent lack of interest) at all?

Should I have somehow tried to physically escalate? How best to do it smoothly? Just literally start touching her hands and stuff? (i'd already touched her lots using 'incidental' kino, like to emphasis a point and stuff)

I had a similar set to this one last week, again with 2 girls, again one smoking hot one and a semi-attractive friend. I push-pulled, teased, sprinkled in normal convo etc, and they seemed to like me (or rather, they didn't seem to 'DISlike' me), but they got up to leave after like 5 minutes, never to be seen again.
