Here's a piece of advice that paints the whole picture, man:
Ain't nobody getting out of this bitch alive. You might as well send it.
Hope that helps!

It's not your fault. Society has brainwashed you to constantly sabotage yourself with excuses.

This was literally one of my friends yesterday. I mean, one girl was all over him, but he just didn't do anything. I'll tell you the same thing I told him....
It's fine. Sure, you could've done something, maybe you should have, but now instead just learn from it. Remember how you feel now, because you don't want to make the same mistake(s) again next time, and there will be another time. Just throw yourself into it and see what happens. If nothing happens it's fine, no big deal, and if something happens, well, that's great. You've got nothing to lose. Also remember that you don't need to go balls to the wall and expect that she wants to go all the way (who knows, maybe she does though) - some kissing is fine too and it doesn't need to go beyond that if you aren't comfortable doing so. Take the chance and just have fun.

You can't really make something out of nothing. If you didn't hit with yourselves naturally, there is low chance that she will respond positively to asking for contact number out of the blue. Next time instead of focusing on forcing final outcome, just enjoy your natural interaction with women.

I feel you, we've all been there bro. One technique you could try that has worked for me is the "gun to head" technique: just imagine someone has a gun to your head and is MAKING you do whatever it is you want (approach a girl, ask for a number, etc.).

It’s also worth remembering that guys who consistently escalate will get laid far more often than guys who don’t. If you want to get laid, you’ll have to be the first guy and not the second.

Noob question but honestly what do you do when she says she has a boyfriend? Just say take care and leave?
[–]Calamity__Bane 2 points3 points4 points 3 years ago* (2 children) | Copy Link
Short answer: it depends on how she says it and at what part of the interaction, but usually ejecting like that is the wrong play.
Long answer: sometimes, a girl will say she has a boyfriend (or a girlfriend) because she feels obligated to, but the rest of her behavior suggests engagement. In that case, ejecting would kill an otherwise fruitful conversation and might even prevent you from getting laid. In this case, you should keep going the way you were before, treat it like a shit test and keep the vibe going.
Sometimes, someone says that to you because they’re enjoying the conversation, but want to make it clear that they aren’t looking for a hookup. In that case, ejecting like that is counterproductive; first, because if you get along with her, you can likely still meet her friends and have an easy in, and second, because having great conversations with people will boost your mood and make you more likely to approach. You should eventually focus on someone else, but not necessarily right away. In this case, you should continue the conversation, but keep things light and enjoyable until you either see an opportunity to leave things on a high note, or transition toward her friend group.
Sometimes, “I have a boyfriend” is being used as a deflection, whether or not she actually has one. In that case, mentally checking her off is probably your best move, but unless you were very forward from the beginning, abruptly ejecting is likely to result in blowback and remove any further use she may have had for you that night. Gradually and politely ejecting, however, is a good idea, especially if the other signals you’re getting indicate low desire to engage.
Pretty much the only time you’ll want to eject like that is if you were super forward from the beginning and you’re getting a hard rejection that tells you she doesn’t want to talk.

Oh yeah, I don't literally mean saying "take care" and leaving lol, like I mean continuing talking for a bit then saying it was nice talking to you, have a nice day etc.
I've been pretty direct in my approaches. Literally walking up and saying "excuse me, I just wanted to say I thought you were cute and wanted to see what you're like" then introduce myself etc. I sometimes preface that with "I'm not hitting on you, but I just wanted to say I thought you were cute" etc. Would you consider that super forward?

No, that’s fine.

Just don't forget this time you fumbled the bag.
Use it as your lesson and set a rule to never do it again.

You gotta be more confident man, if you ask for the number after that long of hanging out you're getting the wrong signals, you should be trying to escalate at the event and bringing her back straight to your place. It only takes 3-8 hours before you have sex with a woman, and it takes 3 seconds for her to be attracted to you

Vin DiCarlo was/is a scam. It was a bloke called Ryan Kowalski and the whole program was just a marketing scam. He also fancies himself as a record producer called 'eyeoneyez' and his own success with women was non existent. He met a hooker in Vietnam, brought her home, married her. They now run a dodgy diet company called Konscious Keto.

All good bro, we’ve all fucked up in dumb ways. Only thing to do is learn the lesson and keep moving.

Ive made it easy. Here is what works for me. If a girl shows interest, just say lets get drinks in the week. She says yes, exchange numbers and done.
Easy as pie ;)

We've all been there bro regret feels bad but it won't in time you literally live and learn. If it wasn't the number it would be something else down the line. There will be many more where it simply clicks without thought because of this.
