I have been cold approaching for a couple months now and was sarging hard at outdoor shopping malls this summer with two of my wings. I have gone from having a lot of anxiety just talking to girls to being to approach any set anywhere I go. If you struggle with approach anxiety you just need to get rejected more and realize that it doesn't fucking matter. Anyways, I was flying back to college the other day and went to the airport a few hours early. I was looking for a place to grab some food and found a place that had food and beer. As I was walking towards the counter, I saw a cute brunette HB8 sitting alone on the phone with a beer. I decided to open the set and went indirect by asking about the beer she was drinking. She opened up but seemed more neutral in her expressions. We talked for a minute about her beer and I decided to grab one too. I came back and sat next to her and asked her what she's doing at the airport. She said she missed her flight and her next flight wasn't until a few hours later. I told her that I'm early for my flight and just chilling at the airport. I asked her where she's from and she told me she's from France and I pointed out that she did have a slight accent. She asked me what I was doing in the area and started asking me more personal questions. Once she opened up I decided to do some slight negs - We were talking about drinking and bars and I said "You look a little wild." and she laughed. When a set hooks and the girl gives you an IOI by asking you a personal question it's always good to neg/tease her a bit and try to slightly break rapport. This will get her to chase you and introduce a bad boy frame. After that, she started showing me pictures of her at the beach on her phone and I pointed out that her hair color was different. She began explaining how she dies it sometimes and this is where I decided to start kino. Kino is very important in a set because it establishes the man to woman frame and will actually let you know if she's is attracted to you. In Bang, Roosh says that a girl will talk to you, go on a date with you, etc. even if she isn't attracted to you - the only way to find out is by doing kino and seeing what her reaction is. When she was talking about her hair, I started brushing it with my hand and feeling it. She didn't react at all and continued talking which was a good sign. At this point, she got another beer and we continued talking for a bit. I decided to introduce a second kino move and pay attention because this one is very crucial. I told her that when I was younger, my mom taught me how to read people's palms. I told her that I want to read her palm and find out more about her. She laughed and gave me her hand. When she gave me her hand I put my left hand under her hand and used my right hand to trace the lines on her palms. I basically used the conversation to tell her 2-3 things about herself (Ex. You're an outgoing person, etc.) I wanted to introduce certain feelings in her that would make her more open to me. The last thing I told her was that "You are going to meet a very cool guy and went on to describe myself". I know it's a bit cheesy but Roosh talks about this kino routine in Bang and it works very well. I also made heavy eye contact while doing it. After this I wanted to escalate further and said "Let's go on an adventure and walk around". She agreed and we walked around the airport (I wanted to find a more isolated spot where I could do more kino). I brought her to a booth and we sat next to each other. I did another routine where we played a staring game and the first person to blink loses. She lost and jokingly said "Is this that game where you have to kiss me?" I joked back and said "I don't know but now you're giving me ideas". During this whole time I was doing light kino by touching her arm, etc. I told her "Now I have to kiss you" and we started kissing and making out. Unfortunately, I could not escalate further because of logistics but my goal wasn't to get the lay - I just wanted to escalate as much as possible in a tough set and gain experience.

​

I learned that there were many things I did in the set that turned it from lukewarm to hot. Here are some tips that might be helpful when you're working a set:

​

  1. When the set hooks, and the girl gives you an IOI, don't be afraid to break rapport a little bit by negging or teasing her. Game is ultimately a push/pull and when she pulls in you want to push a bit by showing that you're not afraid to lose her. This shows abundance and DGAF and will get her chasing you.
  2. Routines can be very effective for introducing kino in a set. Kino is crucial because it establishes a man to woman frame and creates sexual tension. Use the fake palm read, staring game routines because they are calibrated and easy to introduce in a set.
  3. Escalation doesn't necessarily mean kino and venue changing is very important to escalate in a set. Roosh talks about how this makes the girl feel like she has known you longer and gets her invested as it is a compliance test.
  4. You can use certain words that will trigger sexual feelings and make her more open to you. For example, in the set I used the word "adventure" to get her to feel more open and spontaneous. Other words that come to mind are "explore, spontaneous, etc."
  5. After you've done your first kino attempt gauge her reaction - If she reacts well make sure to continue doing light kino throughout the set - touch her arm, brush her hair, etc. This maintains a sexual frame and makes it easier to go for the kiss or the lay later on.
  6. When you've opened the set and she asks you questions, use this time to drop some subtle DHVs. Talk about your hobbies, travel etc. (Roosh calls this dropping bait). This is your chance to paint a picture of yourself and the more attractive it is the more interested she will be. Storytelling is also very important and if you are able to tell stories that convey DHVs that is very powerful.

TLDR: Cold approached girl at airport and kissed her in an hour. Learned a lot from this set and listed out what I learned above.
