30 days of approaching. Day game or night game -- Indirect or direct it doesn't matter.

Although my upcoming posts will mostly cover my approaches, I will also be working out and dieting. For the past 3 weeks I have been lazy... like REALLY lazy. For 3 LONG weeks I have not been watching what I eat and have not been going to the gym -- in addition to developing my attraction skills. Much of the reason for my laziness has been due to my job. I have the shittiest work schedule around! Often working until 12am and working through the weekends, I have a hard time balancing all the other important things in my life like my health, pick up skills, my energy, and my time management. I'm currently in the process of looking for another job but until then, I gotta do my best with balancing everything out.

My ultimate goal is to develop my Holistic game... Let's do this!!

Day 1:


As I was walking I saw what appeared to be an attractive woman from a distance walking in my direction.

A (Attract, Approach)

I put my hand out to stop her. She stops. I say, "I saw you walking my direction and I had to tell you that you are SO pretty." Somewhere during the middle of the sentence as she got closer I realized she was a lot older than I thought she was. Not really my style. I couldn't stop mid sentence though so I went through with the entire direct opener.

She gave a nice smile and said thank you. I could tell I made her day. I smile back and eject. We both walk away.


_ _


I see a young attractive woman sitting down on a bench smoking a cigarette.

A (Attract, Approach)

I do the Walk of Khan. When I get in front of her I touch her arm and squat down a little so that we are about the same level of eye contact and so that she doesn't feel awkward with me standing over her. As we are both making eye contact and I hold my friendly smile, she removes her headphones. I tell her, "I saw you from over there and I had to come by and say that you are ABSOLUTELY beautiful. My name is Bullet."

She smiles back, says thank you, looks at me with a smile and touches her hair (IOI). She tells me her name. We shake hands and right away I sit down next to her.

C (Comfort, Connection)

This was a tricky girl because I couldn't quite gauge whether or not she was into me. As we were talking, her body never really faced me... it always faced forward. Every once in awhile she would turn her face to me and look me in the eyes but it never felt solid.

Regardless, I try to maintain dominance throughout the entire interaction and clearly show my interest. I make sure to face my entire body to her, kino during conversation, and look at her in the eyes.

I told her to tell me something about herself. She complies and engages in conversation. We talk for a little. Still her body is not facing me. I decide that I might have to game a little bit more...

B (Buying Temperature, Be in the Moment)

I use a BT tactic with a compliance test. She complies. At this point I realize she must have SOME level of attraction for me...

I then use my environment to my advantage. I see a baby trip and fall. We talk about that for a moment. I tell her something about how a baby will react to how you react when something goes wrong. For example, if a baby trips and you run over and show concern, the baby will cry. However, if you laugh along with the baby after s/he fell, the baby will carry on as if nothing ever happened. She thought that was interesting.

We then do a little bit of role playing. Somewhere during conversation she says, "I feel like I've known you forever! We go way back!" I say, "Yeah tell me about it! You remember that time when we saw that baby trip and fall down?!" It was silly. She laughs.

During this stage in conversation I realize she is a very sarcastic girl.

C (Comfort, Connection)

I tell her a DHV story. She thinks its cool.

She tells me more about herself.

I tell her to answer one of my comfort questions and she complies. In fact, she gets so high energy talking about it.

I end the conversation and tell her I have to go. I tell her to give me her number and she does.


__


What I did good:

Remembered to do the Walk of Khan and to drop down lower on a seated set so that we were at about the same eye level. I made sure to give a big smile. I had my body language in check.

What I could do better:

Next time do a direct approach with 100% confidence and not 99% confidence. It makes a big difference. I have to admit, since I haven't done a solid approach in awhile, I kinda had doubts in my head. I think if I would have came in with 100%, there's a chance I wouldn't have had to fractionate between B and C. My buddy Nineteen was watching me from a distance and said he thought I looked good. I guess that's one of my talents -- being able to show that outer confidence. Tommy even pointed that out during my first bootcamp and at the end of the night he said, "I don't know if you were nervous at all... But you didn't look nervous." That night, I was pretty nervous. lol.

Also, when going direct, Nineteen and I agree that it comes down to mindset. Go 100%. If you go 99%, it's not as strong. Showtime pointed something out about my inner game during my second bootcamp, which at the time I thought was pretty good but he made me realize that it wasn't. For example, when we improvised stories, my stories seemed to generate negativity. I make sure to check myself for that now. lol.

To sum this up, I need to develop a stronger mindset/inner game. I have confidence that that will come in time.

Day 2


Unfortunately work took up most of my time. No approaches today but I DID work out and watched what I ate. Good for me.

Day 3:

Late night outside of a bar I see an attractive Asian with a short skirt. At the time I didn't realize this but her boyfriend was across from her about 6 or 7 feet. I did the Walk of Khan, kinoed her on the arm and said, "You are fuckin' cute. I had to say hello." We introduced and shook hands. She smiled and was very flattered by the compliment but also had a look of concern. I notice her eyes shifting around the area behind me. As her words stuttered, she pointed out to the skinny white guy behind me dressed like, in my opinion, a wannabe 50 cent with his jeans half way down his ass and his baseball cap turned slightly to the side. I turn to look at the guy. He was smoking a cigarette, was drunk, and was leaning on someone's car. I took the words out of the girl's mouth, "Oh this is your boyfriend." He immediately starts saying something in a defensive tone that I couldn't make out. I say, "What's up man, don't take offense but I thought your girl was cute. I had to just say hi."

For those who don't know, I have been training martial arts since I was 15 years old and have recently got into boxing and Muay Thai. I was prepared to get into a fight if I had to.

His girlfriend apologizes. I look at her. She thanks me but says I should just walk away. I continue to say something to the boyfriend to see if I could make an attempt at making the boy look more stupid and to also see how mad he would get. I thought back to the things Johnny Wolf taught me if a guy tries to AMOG me. I cant remember the boyfriend's exact words but he said something along the lines of, "Keep your fuckin' hands where they are. Don't be touchin' her. She's with me. Keep your fuckin' hands where they are." He says more stuff and I could tell he was trying to insult me, but I couldn't make it out with the slurring. That very moment a HUGE part of me wanted to Thai kick him in the head. But another voice in me said he is a drunken idiot. Let this go. We continue a short stare down. I had a smile on my face. He had insecurity and anger was on his face. I didn't sweat him for two reasons. One, he was skinny. Two, he was drunk. Regardless... there was still something inside me that wanted to walk up to his face... but I manage to keep my cool. "It's his birthday...", the girlfriend says.

"Nice meeting you", I told the girl. To the drunk idiot I said, "Happy birthday", I did you a favor. I smile, turn my back to him, and walk away. I must have looked like a bitch... It was because of that I wanted to go back to confront him. If there's absolutely one thing I don't like, it's someone thinking they can punk me.

I want to think I was the bigger man. After all... they were a couple. It gives me no satisfaction to attempt to break up a legitimate couple nor would I want to beat him up in front of her. All I want to do is to improve MY life, not to mess up others'. Anyways, whatever. I let this go.

There are three possible reasons why that guy acted aggressive towards you:
1. He's a douchebag
2. Felt insecure that someone might swoon his girlfriend
3. Did I mention he was probably a douchebag???

Keep on pushin' baby! The light at the end of the tunnel is there....

Day 5

Went out tonight. Brought two ladies friends with me and we ended up arriving very late. I warmed up and socialized a little. Bringing two ladies gave me social proof, I could feel it.

Suddenly, I see a 4 set behind me. The target is the Asian wearing read. The 4 set is dancing and laughing... They are a high energy group. I had to match that energy. Let's go...

A (Attract and Approach)

I kino turn my target and the other girl next to her. I get the attention of the entire group.

ME: "You ladies look fuckin' gorgeous!!"

We make our introductions.

They tell me a little about themselves and their ages. My target is a lot older than I thought she was. I'm 25 and I thought she was in her early to mid twenties. It turned out she is in her early 30s. That's cool, whatever. I told her I thought she was younger. She was flattered. I find out they all work together and were celebrating their friend's birthday.

I allow for some awkward silence to see what they had to offer. Should I go to phase B or go straight to C? I feel the conversation die down so I know I have to game a bit more.

B (Buying Temperature, Be In The Moment, Banter)

I BT spike combined with a compliance test directed toward my target. I tell her to poke my stomach. She does. PASSED. I get the group laughing. Little by little the group starts to separate into another group. My 4 set turned into a 2 set. Just as I planned.

I tease my target about something that I can't remember. She slaps me on the arm. :D

Suddenly this Black guy comes in to AMOG. He just straights up walks in my set! WTF?! Luckily he wasn't going for my target otherwise I'd have to do some serious AMOGing. He introduces himself to the other girl (not my target) and doesn't even pay me, THE MAN, any respect first before walking in! This would be a good time to practice AMOGing :mrgreen:. Time for B.I.T.!!

B (Befriend)

ME: "What up bro, I'm Bullet!! You havin' a good time??!!

AMOG: "Yeah. My name is---"

I cut him off.

ME: "How do you know my friends here!!"

AMOG: "I don't I just met---"

I (Ignore)

I look to the girl and cut him off.

ME: "You know him??!!"

AMOG: "I was just telling them I'm a rapper."

I turn back to the AMOG and acknowledge him.

T (Tool)

ME: "Oh for real??!! You're a rapper! That's cool, man. I love rap!!"

AMOG: "Yeah I wanted to tell her that I'm the future."

ME: "Aww sweet! Did you hear that?!! My boy here is the FUTURE!"

I put my left hand on the AMOGs shoulder and use my right hand to shake his hand. Then I take my right hand and pat it on his chest a couple of times.

ME: "He's the future! Watch out for him ladies! One day you're gonna be watching TV and you're gonna say, 'HEY! I KNOW THAT GUY!'"

The AMOG guy feels cool. Girls are laughing and knew he was lame for using an "I'm the future" line to get them attracted to him. AMOG walks away.

I continue to Banter. They tell me they are psychologists for a school district and they said they were trying to analyze me. I tell them to tell me what they have analyzed about me. At the same time they say...

GIRLS: "YOU'RE AWESOME!"

That was a big confidence boost. lol. I tell my target to high five me for compliance. She passes.

My target continues on and says...

TARGET: "It's so amazing how you just came up to all of us like that."

I decide to use that moment to say something cocky funny.

ME: "I know, I know. You ladies can just call me Mr. Awesome from now on."

GIRLS: *laughs*

ME: "Hey ladies, let's have a seat."

We sit. (Compliance passed)

C (Comfort)

I tell the girls to scoot over so I can sit in the middle. They comply.

We talk more comfort stuff.

It's getting pretty late and I tell them I have to go soon. My target asks about the two girls I came in with. At this moment I have no doubt in my mind she is interested in me. I tell her they are my friends. I tell her to come with me so that I can introduce her to them. We all talk more.

The lights start to turn on and everyone is starting to leave.

I turn to my target... hold her hand... and in her ear I say...

D (Direct Interest)

ME: "Look, I think you are ABSOLUTELY beautiful and I would hate to leave with out telling you that."

TARGET: With a smile, she says, "Thank you."

We talk for a little bit more. I go for the number.

TARGET: I'm sorry, I have a boyfriend.

At this point I'm thinking, WTF? We talked... you passed my CTs.... huh???!!!

ME: "And how long have you had THAT problem?!" BOYFRIEND DESTROYER!!!

TARGET: She laughs and looking down at the floor she mumbles softly, "A month."

At this moment my friends that I rolled in with are at the door waiting for me. I didn't want to keep them waiting. As I type this looking back, I should have plowed. I think if I would have soldiered on, she probably would have given me her number or something. I felt that the "boyfriend" was either bullshit OR she wasn't that happy with him based on her body language and tone. I could be wrong. If anything she was probably testing me. If it was a test, I failed. I gave her the gentleman's grace and smile. She smiles back. I look in her eyes and I tell her it was nice meeting her. She looks back and says it was nice meeting me. I turn to walk away.

---

What I did good:

Opened smoothly, commanded attention, acknowledged everyone in the group,

Did AMOGing!!! Used B.I.T. method.

Teased and used compliance testing.

Calibrated my energy well for this group.

What I could have done better:

Not leave and quit so soon. I should have stayed for a few more minutes at least and plowed. I should have tried to find out more about her feelings toward her "boyfriend" of "one month" and see if it was actually bullshit. In other words, I should have taken advantage of the opportunity the BOYFRIEND DESTROYER gave me. lol. Well, when it happens next time, I'll know to do that.

Smooth like James Bond!
I liked the way you AMOG'ed him brotha LOL..

Personally, about the boyfriend situation, I would just ignore it. She was obviously into you and wanted to invest time on you. Think about it, if she didn't like you, she would have cut the convo short and left.

She was smitten by your intense James Bond and didnt want to leave you!!! If anything, it was probably a shit test to see your reaction.
