I’m out day gaming at my student union trying to get reps in.

The first girl I hit on I give my usual opener of “hey I thought you were really pretty and wanted to come say hi.” She would barely tell me her name, wouldn’t shake my hand, mumbled everything she said, no smile or any sign of interest. So I moved on 10-15 seconds after approaching her.

I walk around and see another cutie and walk up and give the same line. Biggest fucking smile, eyes dilated, says thank you immediately and we talk a bit. Turned out she was a cheerleader.

Exactly why it’s a numbers game right in front of my eyes.

I could have quit after the first girl, and I’m glad I didn’t.
