I went out both nights this weekend after hibernating for the last little while. It was a lot of fun!

The first night I met up with 3 guys I've never been to a club with. Two of them were into game and the other wasn't at all. The guy who wasn't into game was super fun to be around and I really enjoyed his company. One of the game guys was too stressed out and the other guy was cool but wanted to talk shop more than I'd rather.

We checked out a newer club in town that I'd never been to. It was a hip hop place that was just a big open dancefloor with a VIP section.

We went on the dancefloor and just started feeling it out. I was keeping the vibe up and making sure that nobody else got too low. It was interesting to see the group dynamics emerge i.e. who wants to be in charge, who's having fun, who's actually in charge.

I didn't actually plan on doing any opens that night but I ended up doing three.

The first was a group of 3 girls. I went up super casual just extending a bit from my own group. They were receptive at first and I jokingly talked to them about how it was my first time here and I was shy. Unfortunately my vocal projection was not calibrated and they lost interest.

The second was a pair of girls. I used the same lines as the first group. These girls were wayyy more into me and I had my arm around one of their shoulders in no time. Again my vocal projection was still not up to par though. They saw a friend and ran up to her together.

The third was really spur of the moment. A train of girls started to barge right through our group and the one in front abruptly stopped in the middle and started talking to her friend behind her. I lightly grabbed her by the shoulders and said something like "what do you think you're doing??" in a playful manner. She was surprised and a little turned on I'd say. The friends behind her pushed on shortly after.

I hung out by the smokers line for a bit before leaving and talked to a chill guy for a bit which resulted in a new IG follower. Nice.

The second night out was pretty weird lol. It was just me and another one of the game guys from the previous night. We didn't get to the club until around midnight. It was a place I'm not so into and I was still annoyed that my buddy showed up an hour late.

Regardless we went in and I tried to make the best of it. This place was really small and there are a lot of people coming in and off the dancefloor all the time. It's a vibe that messes with my head a bit. This is the first time my buddy and I have gone out so it takes some time before we figure out what works for us strategy wise.

All in all I ended up talking to two groups of girls. Both of them I ejected from too early because I was still in a pissy mood. Oh well lol. Getting control over my emotions is something I definitely need to work on.

I ended up leaving the club in a good mood because I had some fun on the dancefloor and talked to some chill dudes. I was also super grateful that my buddy came out that night.

Next weekend I'm going to focus on speaking loudly and making sure to stay in set until they leave.

Cheers!
