ImKumarYo suggested that we pick something we are having trouble with it, and then try the set 100 times.
I feel confident approaching women in bars after I've had a few, and in some cases a few too many. My challenge for myself was to approach without any liquid confidence for 100 sets.
SO....Field Report 1 with no booze. I would like to start by saying I work at a university, so I should have TONS of opportunities, I just never thought about taking any until now. So I went to go get my lunch and was browsing the cafeteria for a place to sit so I could talk to some girls and after I got my food I spotted to girls in conversation on the other side of the room. Let's say slightly above average so HB whatever.
Anyways, I get closer, notice all the crap they put into the one extra chair and guess what...I WUSS OUT!!! Yup, I just walk on by. And I start kicking myself in the ass for it too. Oh well.
So I walk outside the cafeteria (I usually eat outside anyway) and I notice a HB8 sitting at the table I usually sit at with headphones on, looking at an iPad.
ME: "Excuse me, do you mind if I sit here?"
HER: "No, that's fine."
ME: "So are you a student here, or do you work here?"
HER: "Oh no I'm not a student, I work here...."
So the conversation gets going and she takes off her headphones, and we talk about a few things. Looking back, I needed to be a bit more flirty I was just talking to her about work/school stuff. I was able to maintain eye contact, and she did laugh at a few of my LAME jokes, so great IOI, however being nervous I wasn't smiling much. (Something I've been working on and I'm aware of.)
So all and all my first win I have 99 more to go. Also in wrapping things up, I wanted to change the topic away form work/school so I asked quite literally, "So what do you like to do for fun?"
DO NOT DO THAT!!! From earlier in the conversation I learned she liked to read, that's why she picked her major. A better approach to move things would of been to say, "So what do you like to read?" or even "Have you ever read....?"
Feedback is MUCH appreciated
