Something weird happened last night, during a birthday party.

I was dancing with my friends and all of a sudden this HB8 approaches a friend of mine (which is beta (and we know women are extremely machiavellian with betas) and after 2 mins this aforementioned friend puts a hand on my shoulder and tells me "She wants to meet you" or something like that. She basically befriended him to indirectly approach me, I suppose?

It's funny how this girl had her boyfriend 2 metres away. A guy taller than me (I'm 5'9), but I was reading from his weak body language that he was surely not the "alpha fucks" but the "beta bucks"

So I proceeded by giving the girl an handshake and held her hand for like 2 mins (an escalation technique I remember reading on 60 years of challenge) while chatting with her and maintaing strong eye contact.

After that I tell her "I can't hear you, wanna go outside" and she agreed.

All this while her boyfriend was basically watching 2 metres away from her.

We went outside and she started asking me personal questions "Where you go at school?", "What do you want to do once you graduate high school?".

Unfortunately, the conversation didn't last much because her boyfriend was mateguarding her and took her away.

Honestly, I can't really tell what the fuck was that? I lift and displayed high status that night, so maybe that was hypergamy in progress? Can someone explain me what happened? First time I'm getting approached in this manner
