Hey guys... I'm new to the forums! Tank talked me into doing 30 days of direct and told me that I had to hold myself accountable so I'm here posting up the results... first written fr so excuse the bad reporting.
First day was yesterday March 16.... opened 2 sets directly.

One girl was at Blacks beach walking down the cliff, she kind of nodded at me and kept walking so I went after her, found out she doesn't speak english...

The other was at a cafe with nonpua friends. There was this cute HB 7 korean girl, that I knew worked there before but never really had anything to say till now. I figured I might as well get as much practice as possible and just up and talk to her.

Seventeen: Hey HB7, you know I've seen you were here before but I just realized how cute you are.
HB7: *a slight smile and a blush* Thank you.
Seventeen: My name is...
And then a lot of laughter, and others trying to hold in laughter from the group i was sititng with, she looks over gets a bit embarrassed and goes to kitchen.

Things I did right:
First time ever going direct on a girl... a hella lot of butterflies and nervousness but it felt alright doing it.

Things I could have done better:
I'm guessing if I didn't acknowledge the laughter and maybe moved away from the group and kept talking to her it might have gone better?

Things I've never done before:
Just the act of going direct.

Day 2

So forgot my backpack at a coding seminar and drove back to get it, doors were locked and didn't have an access card to swipe to get in... started wandering around the place to see if i could find an open window or something to get in when I see the cute girl in like workout clothes come out of the door and start stretching I figured best way to get into the building to get my backpack and go direct so I up and approach her. She has headphones on and doesn't notice me. I walked up a bit closer to her and got her attention... told her my situation and went direct and then she screamed and ran back into the building...

So I'm gathering approaching people at night time in like a deserted office parking lot isn't the best of places to work on game.

Lol, that's hilarious, not to be laughing at your expense or anything, but I would have loved to have seen that.

In anycase, you provided more detail on the first scenario. First off, good job for even having the balls to do that. It's hard enough approaching a girl as is, but approaching a girl in front of her peers is definitely a difficult task.

Here's a couple of solutions:

1. Just avoid that situation, you don't need to approach a girl in front of her peers, sometimes you may need to exercise some social discretion, that's a point that London Soul from LoveSystems makes. If a girl is in front of her friends or her family, she may act differently. There are PLENTY of sets of women that are by themselves or just with one friend.

2. Make sure you go in ultra playful and a giant smile on your face and adopt a frame as if you were dared to go in and do it. I think a big problem is that a lot of guys go direct and are serious when they do it. They deliver it with a lot of seriousness. Generally speaking, seriousness kills most PUAs and in this specific situation, from what it sounded like, either you went in and were too nervous or too serious and it made it easy for her peers to AMOG you. Try this next time.

You: (WIth the biggest most ridiculous smile on your face and playful tone of voice) "I think you are the cutest girl in the world, what's your name?"

Friends: *Laugh at you*

You: "I know, I know" *Wave them off* "I'll just be flirting with your friend a few more minutes"

Then you stack forward and go for the # close. Remember to have fun with it, if you're not having fun with it, you're AA and nervousness will get the best of you.

Work it man. Nice. Glad to finally see you put your balls out there and do direct. If you cry you got a shoulder to put it on.;-)
