Hi there, here’s my field report:

My wing and I (both beginners) went to this new trendy restaurant/bar full of HB’s. We went for a beer and started walking by. Analyzing everything. Once we enter in the mode, the hunting begins. The first one was a set of 4 dancing HB's, we arrived and began to encourage them “yeah! come on! that’s it” wuuu wuuu”, everything seemed to be just fine, but then… we don’t knew what to do. Maybe it was our anxiety fucking with us. Never mind. Later, with other sets, we try to use a cigarette as an opener “Hey! (: you have a lighter?” but the same thing… We did not know what to do next! We tried this several times to see if something happened without something prepared to say after the opener (if "you have a lighter?" can be called an opener) and only worked with a girl who had a curious lighter that looked like a USB. We started a conversation with that until after a few minutes she saw us very needy and ignored us. Then we tried a “cheers!” opener. This was the best! All their beers offered up to drink a toast. Women who do not listen to me, because there the music was so loud, I approached them and whispered in her ear "you know that if you don't drink a toast with me, you earn 7 years of bad sex?" and smile. Here the conversation may have started, but I was retiring already. Why? I don’t know. I justified myself saying “this is just a pre-opener, don’t worry” but when I returned there was no way to regain what I had started. This happened many times! One time I say “cheers! :D “ to a HB and she ignored me completely and started to dance in front of me singing this well known song. Wow! And what happened next? I did not dance with her, instead, I whispered in her ear “hey, you know that if you don't drink a toast with me, you earn 7 years of bad sex?” So she did and gave me the thumbs up and a smile. FUCK! I should have danced with her. I did not know what to do then, I felt like an idiot and walked away, smiling, of course.

I'm not very responsive, perhaps because I am very concerned about keeping myself cool. I applied the same opener with the same girl twice! And I did not realize, my wing told me about this… We have had very good days when we have a pivot, we just let it flow and it’s easy. Once a conversation it’s started it’s very easy for me. This was our first time alone, without my pivot friend and we blew it completely.
What do you think? What can I do to improve? I know a lot of canned material, but I remember after the party is over. I just need more practice? Fuck man…
