Preamble:

Through the support of my friends and by listening to a hell lot of pickup podcast at work (I work alone, so it's not uncommon for me to have it playing during the quieter hours) I began to develop my natural game and the foundation required to start seduction. One of my prior issues with pickup was how fake it seemed, how disingenuous it was. I guess that's why Pickup Podcast appealed to me, it made a lot of sense and it was coming from a genuine direction. So bit by bit I started targeting various areas of improvement, and taking what I was good at (I'm awesome at banter, horrible at Kino) and combining it with the new stuff. This was the first night I put it into motion and the results have been spectacular. (Kino = AMAZING)

Field Report:

I arrived at the bar with a friend of mine at 9PM. Typical college bar. I have issues with just jumping in and hitting the ground warming, so I wingmanned for an hour until I got into the flow of things. At around 10PM I noticed a brunette sitting at the bar being hit on by a guy in a white shirt. She's an 8, and she was obviously not having it. Immediately noticed his body language was off. He wasn't pecking, but he was leaned in. His hands were extremely animated, and he was speaking a mile a minute. Fidgeting, etc. My friend and I take bets on how fast he's gonna implode. I decide a new drink is in order, and conveniently enough the bartender's right near her. Head on over, and as soon as I get my drink paid up, he finally backs off. About time, it was getting painful seeing this guy crash and burn. I hear her sigh, and my thought process went somewhat like this.

"Do it motherfucker."

"But what am I gonna do?"

"I don't know. What the hell do you know?"

Flash back to Pickup Podcast where AJ & Jordan are riffing on how most guys do the job interview. I go for the opener. Light touch on the forearm.

Me: So did you get the job?

Her: Huh?

Me: (Pause) Looks like you had quite the interview just now…

Thought I blew it. Surprisingly, no. She gets it.

Her: Haha no, no I didn't get it.

Me: It's okay, I'm sure the hours would have sucked.

Her: The positions too.

We laugh. Was that a dirty joke?

Me: I'm Mike. (Not my real name, obviously.)

Her: Megan. Nice to meet you. (Not her real name too, obviously.)

Me: So what brings you out tonight?

FUCK. I had dropped out of banter and back into interviewing.

Her: Oh not too much, it's a girl's night. I was just getting a drink . Me: Ah.

Okay, I've blown it. I don't know where I'm doing with this. Heck, I don't know what I'm gonna talk about. It gets a little awkward. We both have our backs to the bar. I notice her look off and focus in the distance. Guy hitting on a girl. I get an idea. Well actually it was more desperation. The girl she's looking at is having none of it. I comment.

Me: He's not getting anywhere.

Her: Why do you say that?

Me: If you were her, would he be getting anywhere?

Her: (Pause) No.

Me: How bout that guy? (Thank god that guy was there, he's in a rival fraternity, but goddamn he's good with the ladies.)

One hand lightly on the shoulder, the other pointed in that direction. She looks over. Guy is absolutely hitting it out of the park. Confidence, kino, he's speaking slowly and she's leaned in towards him. Look over at Megan, she's blushing.

Me: Well?

Her: Wow.

Me: If he doesn't kiss her soon I'll be surprised. (I'm impressed by how well I called that. He does.)

Her: How…?

Me: It's pretty easy.

Her: Tell me.

My mind's running a mile a minute, but I'm keeping it together. Not once does she ask how I know, or if I'm a pickup artist or douche or etc. I'm trying to remember the pickup podcast's list of steps. Body Language. Banter. Story Telling. Kino. Explain it less like the steps of pickup and more like the laws of attraction. Body language suggests confidence and happiness, and your status as a provider of fun. Banter continues that, while the ability to share personal stories (Story telling) is showing another side to you, building connections and comfort. The entire time I'm actually applying what I'm talking about. On banter for example, we go from an example to actual banter (How, I have no idea but we did) Eventually, she asks if knowing everything makes me some sort of ladies man.

Me: Surprisingly no.

Her: Really?

Me: Long term type of guy.

Her: Wanna make an exception?

We laugh. I think this gonna end well.

Her: So what's the last step?

Me: Body contact.

Her: Hmm?

Me: You ever meet a guy, spend hours talking to him, you're having a good time, then at the end of the night, he goes for a kiss and it's just awkward?

Her: Oh my god yeah. So many times.

We go on a bit more about it, get back to some light banter, and by this point she's practically manoeuvred herself in front of me and is pulling me in. She's spent the entire time looking amazed that I can explain every single awkward date she ever had, and every awesome date ever. Moment of silence, noticed she's pulled herself in front of me, go for it. We start making out right there at the bar.

Unfortunately we do not have a good ending to this story. Her girlfriends returned, from what she had mentioned during the conversation (About twelve minutes total… I know right?) one was recently broken up and the other was wingmanning her. The newly single girl is clearly not having it, and demands to leave. Goes off on how she should be there for her instead of making out with some guy. Boom, she's suddenly rethinking her actions, saying she's not that type of girl… oh well. Went back to wingmanning my bud, and decided it was a good night overall.
