Hi Guys,

Its Spark here. Just went out sarging on my official first night as an AFC. Lol. I was with a bunch of friends, but to them we were just meeting girls in a club, but to me I was running game.

So a little bit about myself. Im an ok looking guy. I get called cute and beautiful by girls, and pretty boy by guys. No Homo !! And I have been told by my friends that I have a certain way about the way i talk, that just reaches and attracts the person im talking to(Hopefully thats true). My confidence level is pretty good just cus i play sports and i have experienced a lot.

Ok so I headed out to the club with a real flashy jacket, a murse/satchel (both my peacocking materials), My gaming pointers, some gum, and a pen and mini notepad(for numbers hopefully).Unfortunately the music was to loud at the club so gaming was hard, but i did manage to approach 2 sets.

The first set was 2 girls dancing. One an 8.2, and the other a 7.8. I approached them with my friend. I used the camera opener and negged my girl right away by asking if she knew how to use it. She bragged about how she was a photographer. I moved into another opening routine with the boyfriend and best friend opener. She loved to give her opinion, and i knew i had her attention at that point. From there I switched to the numbers game, firstly she guessed a number from 1-4 and i multi threaded, then she guessed from 1-10 and i multi threaded again. I guessed both numbers right. Lol. Now at this point she was very amazed. and kinda creeped out. She then came in closer and introduced herself, and asked for my name. Her body language and replies were screaming IOI. But here is the part i dont understand. As soon as I told her my name, she smiled and said i had impressed her, then she slowly backed away from me while smiling. I felt like I should have done something, but oh well. I lost her there.

Later in the night I approached another set with 3 girls. My target in the group was easily a 9.5. There was a random guy there with me at this point, and he started talking to one of the girls in the group, so my job was a bit easier. I opened up the HB with a neg and after the opener and number guessing like in the first set, we did a bit of small talk mostly about her(i ran gum neg at this point). She was already impressed by me and i noticed when she started loosening up and smiling more. The reason we spoke more about her(her childhood mostly) was my sorry attempt at building rapport. From there i went into cold reading which blew her off her socks !!! From there i rant an attraction routine on her. Kind of NLP, and at that point she told me she was attracted to me. I felt so good, and was ready to close, which is where i fucked up. The music was too loud, and i had to repeat my close over and over. And it almost looked like i directly asked for her number(which luckily i didn't). After she wrote it down, my pen fell out her hand. I told her to pick it before she left, and as she was bending down, she snapped back up and said a woman shouldn't have to do that and all that shit talk. So when she left, i ended up picking the pen.

My regrets from that pick up are : I didn't do any kino(minus the trust test), I should have attempted the kiss close, and i felt like she got one on me when I picked that pen. Worst of all I looked at the number after, and it was only a number. No name(cant remember it from earlier intro).

So what do you think guys??? any advice would be appreciated. I want to get better and better. By the way she made sure to tell me she is absolutely free tomorrow. So help with next move

Spark1989,

First of all, I want to seriously congratulate you on getting you butt out in the field and attempting this stuff. That is a huge hurdle to overcome! Secondly, I also want to give you some praise for actually approaching people. That's a second huge hurdle for many people out there.

During the first set you said at the end she just started to back away and then it was lost. To be honest you are going to have to deal with this for a little while being newer. There are ways to stop interruptions and this sort of stuff in the set but it comes later. Right now you need to focus more on the beginning steps of opening, attraction, kino etc. Believe me there is enough to think about before worrying about that too much.

The last set sounds like it went pretty well. Okay so you made a small mistake in telling her to pick up the pen. Oh well, shit happens right!

Here are the things I think you should start getting in your head before you go out next time.

1.) Learn how to project your voice without yelling. Night clubs are loud and there isn't much you can do about it but you do get more use to it. Make a motion to get her closer and project your voice. OR

2.) You need to move your sets within the club or venue you're at. If you are in a loud area after some attraction is built move them to a quieter area of the place to talk to her more easily. Even if this is just out front to get some fresh air. Anywhere that you can actually talk without yelling. A simple, "Hey I want to show you something cool, come with me."

3.) Finally, you really have to work on kino. You need to touch early in the conversation and touch often. The best way to do this is while gesturing with your hands. Gambler explains it very well in this video.

Hope all this helps you out man. Don't worry too much about the other stuff now just work on getting these steps down and then we can move on to the more advanced stuff like handling interruptions.

great example of simple openers and routines. Sounds like you had the first girl in the set could of possibly ran another opener before going to the 1-4 1-10 routine.
This is what I usually do...
Me: You seem like a fun girl you show me something cool now...
HB: I am fun but I don't know anything cool...
Me:I can't talk to you if your not fun...(false disqualify yourself as suitor)
HB:Your mean!! (pushes you usually)
me: Woah, I didnt say you can touch me!
HB:(usually keeps touching you...)
this point you established a little kino and should be able to pick up from there just a way it could of been avoided...
