I'll start off like every other first poster. I've been lurking for about a month. Bought some books and haven't read past the first chapter yet on NLP, Mystery Method, and The Game.

This has helped me learn something. I forced my natural outgoing extremely confident self to change into a quiet introvert. As a kid I didn't want to be associated with the "bad kids" in my grades and I associated loud outgoing antics with bad.

Anyway, FR time. I went out last night with a group of friends. Approached everyone. Lessons that I learned

  • Approach everyone and don't hesitate

  • Kino immediately (i never used to do that)

  • I'm still having trouble with eye contact

  • Rejections aren't rejections. They are funny stories for later!

"Group Hug" Opener was amazing. It worked 2/2 times. Walk up to a group of girls who are already embracing and yell GROUP HUG with your arms out. They engange. Instant Kino.

Set #1 - Approached a two set of HB7's. Yelled Group Hug. Hugged. Let my hand trail down the arm of one and took her hand. Talked to her. The other interjected. Continued talking to the first. Was informed that both had boyfriends but the other one cheats on hers a lot. A boy came in and snatched away the one I was talking to. So I walked off after the cheater. Found her at the bar. Starting talking. She leaned into me and was making the physical contact, but as soon as her drink was delivered she darted off like a pro sprinter. Confused as hell.

Set #2 - Approached HB9 and fat friend. Yelled Group Hug. Fat friend was shielding the HB9. Demanded that I buy her a drink in order to be allowed to talk to the HB9. I said nah thanks and ejected. Reapproached later and they were both warmer but I wasn't interested.

Set #3 - HB7 and HB8. The HB7 stepped on my brother so I told her to apologize and I grabbed the HB8. We danced. Talked. Kino. Was hot. Then she ejected, rescued her friend from my douchebag brother, and they bolted.

Set #4 - Shot girl comes up. I tell her I'll buy a round of shots if she get's my older brother's girlfriend to flash us. We get to see the boobies and I buy a round. I keep pushing. I tell her I'll buy another round if we see her's. She looks around then chickens out. I #close instead.

Any pointers on how other sets could have gone better?
