EDIT: Didn't expect to receive so much feedback, I appreciate very much your critics.
Summary: long time lurker, read sidebar material, cut out porn and shitty habits, started to lift since 6 months and meditating since 2, I had the occasion to implement trp knowledge for the first time in a club, without any expectation of success.
Body:
Last week I went to a club with friends. Just for the sake of detail it was an 80s revival night, however everyone was dressed normally. Age range 21-27.
Given the fact that this was the first time I purposely wanted to do this, I was aware that failures, errors and fucking up things would be very likely. My mentality was basically "Ok,no worries about the outcome, it's a situation where every mistake I make will help me for future occasions."
Basing my approaches on a funny opening line, here's what happened:
I started with my first drink, and after the place filled, began to approach girls.
Spotted a HB6.5 dancing alone, didn't know where her friends were.
-
Me:"I've come to a point in my life where I have 2 choices: become a terrorist or an enclosed nun,what would you say?"
-
HB6.5 laughs and says "Your friends are laughing at you!" (Shit test?)
-
-
Me:"Good! They're sad today and my goal is to make them laugh."
-
HB6.5:"Oh,ook...Right, listen there's my friend which would be very interested in your story..."
Thinking this was basically a rejection, returned back dancing with the others like nothing happened.
Later on, I spot a girl dancing on a sofa, not far from our group, leaning from time to time sideways, to watch a sort of big photograph depicting someone that could have possibly been a singer.
By the way I approach her
-
Me:"It's not worth watching it, he's old and ugly as hell!"
-
HB7 kinda smiles slightly
-
I go again with the shitty line as before
-
HB7:"I'm sorry about your situation,I don't know what to say..."
-
Me:"That's bad, because now you're worsening my doubts..."
-
HB7:"Hmm...you should try setting yourself on fire?"
-
Me:"Only if you pay for fuel refill!"
-
HB7 turns to her friends
Ok.Rejected again. I go for another drink at the bar.
Some time passes and one of my buddies encounters his female friend HB7 which was casually there with a male friend, and they joined the group on the dancefloor.
I walk to her to introduce myself...
-
Me:"I'm drinking beacuse my imaginary friend abandoned me."
-
HB7 laughs "Why?"
-
Me:"I don't know. He said he'd go to buy cigarettes, but he never came back."
-
HB7 Burst in laughs
-
Me:"by the way, I'm XYZ"
-
HB7:"ZYX, nice to meet you"
I remain in the whole group dancing.
Fast forward 30 minutes, there's an HB7.5 with a friend,another HB6.5 dancing in front of our table.
-
Me:"Given that in the 80s everyone was dressed shitty, would I be a good or an awful cosplayer?"
-
HB7.5 scans me from head to toe "Hmm...I'd say neutral!"
-
Me:"What does it mean neutral? There were two possibilities!"
-
HB7.5 laughs slightly
-
Me:"Ok,so thank you very much for your useful and convincing opinion!" (pulling a neg attempt)
I walk away and reunite with the group and continue dancing, having a good time.
After kinda 30 minutes, I go to the bathroom along with my buddy. Getting out of the toilets I feel my arm getting pulled: it was the HB7.5 I met before, with her HB6.5 friend!
-
HB7.5:"You're the neutral guy! We see again!"
-
Me:"What do you like about sexually neutral guys?" (The first thing that came into my mind)
-
HB7.5:"Tell me your name"
-
I first tell her a ridiculous name,I get a confused expression from her,and then I tell her my real name. (Mistake?)
-
HB7.5:"Your name is not XYZ,no one has a name like this!"
-
Me:"I know,I'm more unique than rare!" (Exaggerated response?)
-
HB7.5:touches with her finger the logo on my polo shirt (IOI?) "Is this the Chad Institute shirt? The one you get when you submit your application? I'm graduating there soon!"
I wasn't wearing at all that shirt!
- Me:"How do you know where I study?"
- (This is where probably my frame cracked)
I found myself in slight difficulty, plus I think wasn't sufficiently lucid to carry on with the interaction. I don't remember quite good how the conversation carried on, but I remember that the HB7.5 got dragged out by HB6.5 friend out, smoking.
Fine, I didn't worry about it, so we returned back to our group. After sometime I see her HB6.5 friend walking around casually where we stayed with our friends. As she walked by me, i tell her this:
-
Me:"Is your friend too shocked that you two had to walk out?"
-
HB6.5: "I don't know, why don't you go and ask her?"
-
Me:"If she wants to talk I'm here."
She walked down and I didn't see them until we got out of the club returning home, passing shoulder close and ignoring them.
Thinking about it now, I would have tried to drag them two on the dancefloor and escalate when I got stopped. Would it have been a correct action?
Back in the group, after some time I go to the HB7 which was still with her male friend and decide to pull another line.
-
Me:"I got a message from the imaginary friend. He wrote me to fuck off and blocked me."
-
HB7 bursts in laughs
-
Me:"So now I'm so desperate that i'm unsure whether to became a terrorist or an enclosed nun"
-
HB7 "I'd suggest you to become an enclosed nun!"
-
Me:"Cool,so I'll be the first nun with a beard and a surprise under her skirt!"
-
HB7 burst in laughs again "You mean a fake gun?The ones with the orange mark?"
-
Me:"Yes. 45 caliber.Soft air."
-
HB7 Laughs again
At this point I didn't know what else to do, probably because I was starting to feel tired or the fact she was still with her friend, so I sat on the sofa in a slight distance.
Later on, they got out greeting only our common friends. I didn't pay attention whether she searched for me to greet or else, I simply didn't care to not give a needy impression. I'd ask my friends for her number or add her on facebook. Thinking back, I think I tried to play too much on the funny lines, using them all in one time instead on focusing on escalating.
The morning after, remembering all these thing I spent a good morning laughing. I don't regret anything, I didn't get any number but it's been a good night. If someone would give me some advice to improve my game I'll appreciate it.
Lesson learned:
Have no fear in approaching girls in a club: it's a noisy, chaotic environment where you should never worry about the outcome.
