3 girls in the past two nights offered to buy me a drink. Obviously my issue isn't attraction/value oriented; my issue is investment oriented. Someone once said to make a girl feel special- I thought that was so AFC when I heard that, but now I realize what the translates to= qualification; giving her reasons to hang out with me again besides sex. I have been approaching every set as if I were trying to get a ONS/bathroom lay and just ignoring qualification entirely from my game. That's probably why despite girls giving me crazy IOI's like buying me drinks, etc etc, I am still unable to get consistent closes.

Experiment with more serious openers

More physicality Physicality is a good way to convey intent without having to open with some lameass "Your cute, I just wanted to say hi", also builds sexual tension.

Start qualifying Two different girls back to back (coincidentally), who both liked me, said 'why do you want to hang out with me? What do I have different than these other girls?"- or something to that effect. That's when I had a crazy realization that I havent been qualifying at all.

Escalate on emotional spikes or as a reward for her. Remember how emotional chicks are. If in the future you want to makeout and are hesitant, just drop a hook and when she laughs go in for the kiss and try to up her buying temp.
