Specifically, how does your verbal, physical and logistical escalation strategy differ on a first date versus meeting a girl at a bar or event and asking her to get a drink alone with you?

I guess there are other things to consider when you’re out....

where are friends at?

how viable it is to keep hanging out with her once the events over (e.g will she have to travel home with friends after)?

alcohol or drugs you or she has taken?

how expensive or exclusive is the event (if very you probably don’t want to leave early or spend the event talking to her if you’d favourite DJ is playing)?

should you just get her number and try to arrange a date later?

Try to meet up with her later in the night?

What do you do if you met her at the beginning of long night or event and don’t want to lose her but want to meet other people too?

Other guys trying to get her as well?

Is she even someone youre attracted to or just the first girl who’s given you attention?

Dates seem much simpler to work with - really just focusing on building rapport and comfort and escalating slowly and steadily. But meeting a girl at a bar and getting her alone could present a similar situation.

So I’m wondering how your game differs on a date versus a night out or event because I find that Iatter situation way more difficult due to all the other shit that you have to consider.
