1 Set – My first HB9 with new annihilation method
Reviews welcome with open arms: I always want to progress my knowledge. Thanks guys!
I hit my first HB9 set. First of all, when I say HB9, I probably mean HB10 because I don’t believe in perfection. All I will say is that this woman was amazing! I saw her as the night was winding down at The Coffee Shop. Rhythm had seen this woman since 6 months before and told me she was mine. I finally got my chance after a lot of nerves and encouragement.
You could tell she was not out clubbing. I thought to myself why was a woman of this caliber alone on a Saturday night at 1:30 Am.? She was eating a bagel with cream cheese and reading a paper. She looked over our way 3 times, but I never made any sort of eye contact or interest. I did not want to approach at first because she was obviously very hungry, so I waited until she was almost done. This process took a long 10 minutes. I sat there with such fear, but ultimately thought this was a golden opportunity because she was a lone target and I had loaded weapons to unleash. I just hoped I could still pull the trigger.
As I approached the nerves died and I went into auto pilot. I opened with Strauss’ O My God – Shoes opener. She was wearing these pukish green boots with a big sweater and jeans. She had no make up on except for little bit of mascara. She was not out to impress anyone, but I fell even harder. She perked right up when I asked her where she got her shoes. I then went into my Pink Shirt routine that I have molded together with Shoes. She responded by telling me that it does not matter what I wear. “It’s all about the inside and what you like” she said. I was not prepared for such an intelligent answer. That is what I would have said! So far she was falling for nothing, but I had her complete attention, and that was the point. Even better, she seemed very confident, independent, and full of self worth.
After a short 5 mins, if that, it was time to dive into the routine of my new version of Jealous Girl Friend and after earlier in the night, and the confidence I had found, I was ready to perfect it. She right away told me that my friend needs to dump her now and that she is very needy. She said “This is only three months, can you imagine if they get married”. She continued “Your friend is going through feelings of lust”. I continued the rest of Jealous Girl Friend, and she seemed enjoy giving me obvious advice, as I enjoyed telling her that I totally agree with her but I don’t want to hurt my friend. “What should I tell him”, I said. She was compassionate, smoothing that dilemma over as well. I thought she has some great characteristics. She was smart, witty, caring, compassionate, trusting and she didn’t seem to possess a lot of baggage either. I told her she should have her own show like the view and admitted to watching it. At this point I could not possibly perceive doing Spells opener correlated to Jealous Girl Friend because I was not about to insult her intelligence.
I was in the set 10 minutes maybe 15, when I decided to DHV her. My transition was sort of lame. I was asking her about where she was from and if she came to that coffee shop often. She gave me some shorter answers. To keep her attention, I knew it was time to DHV her, especially if she was to answer any of my AFC questions, so I went into my routine on the cube. I am sure it did not look too bad from her POV, but I wanted to be smoother than that. Possibly in the future I’ll make an intelligent psychological observation then go into the cube.
Once again, the cube did not let me down. She was adding to my observations by saying and, which means yes. She said “that is right. What question did you make that determination from?” I didn’t tell her, of course. I continued making my observation by telling her which part of the cube it came from on some occasions. She said “wow, very good”.
At this point, I was ready to get to know her better and she was ready and willing to tell me a lot more about her life. I was now into the set about 25 mins and her eyes began to glaze over a bit. She told me about her crazy car accidents and her bad back as a result. She told me that she was inside her new apartment all day, so she thought she’d get out of the house at 1:30 am. Then started to open up how she could not find a new place after a confrontation with her previous landlord. She said how scared she got by not being able to find a place, until the last day. I started in on floating the conversation by asking her AFC questions like what part of town she lives in and how she is settling in. This time my simple questions were not answered in a fast manner, but rather in a slow, methodical way. You could tell she was beginning to value this conversation.
After 35 minutes, she asked if I smoked and I told her sometimes. We went outside where it was pretty cold, but luckily we sat underneath the propane heater. It was here where I started to open up with parts of my life, as I felt compelled to meet her half way. She seemed to enjoy talking about me. I would try to change the subject, but she would continue to back to my career, which I loved! We then began to talk about relationships. She scarred me when she told me that all most all relationships end because of the man. There was insecurity here! I told her to explain herself. She continued by saying that many men are not grounded in life, and if they are not grounded how do they expect to love a woman full-heartedly. “If a man does not know himself how does he expect to love someone?” She said. This was an easy response for me since I have thought about it many times before. I said “Women are free, right? Then females have the right to recognize when a man is not grounded and get out of the relationship. The woman is not forced to be with a man when she has a thing called independence.” She completely agreed with me. Afterwards, I agreed with her that she was right on that most men are not grounded, but I said “Some men are grounded, you just have to find that because it does exits.” We both shared smiles, as we continued our conversation.
We talked about careers, entertainment, family, economy and health. She told me that she works part time at Summerhays music store and I think part time at another job. This was strange that she did not have a full time job considering how independent she seemed. I told her that I loved all types of music. She stated the same, except new country, which I agree! I told her that I like extreme metal, classical, pop, and 80s. I then went into the Style’s number close by telling her that I know this really cool club, Liquid Joes, where they play really cool 80 cover songs. I built the place and experience up for next Saturday night, but I did not invite her. We then talked about family, where she told me she is a black sheep of her family and how some of them are Mormon, but not her. Lastly we were talking about health. She told me about her newly conformed vegetarian diet and how she was forced to change diets because of health issues. I thought I could have asked her what issues those were, but I didn’t want to put a damper on the whole experience. She was definitely willing to go deeper with me. She was very open.
It was time to seal the deal since it was 3:00am and the coffee shop was closing, so I told her that I enjoyed our conversation and that she should come along with us to Liquid Joes and enjoy some of that 80s music. She enthusiastically said “yes”. I then felt so good and confident that we had made some sort of connection that I asked for her number. She gave it to me. I called it right then and said “now you know it’s me and not some crazy guy you met at the coffee shop”. She laughed and said it was nice to meet me. I said “I’ll walk you to your car to make sure you get there safe.” On the way I told her that she may not have a degree in college, but she definitely has a degree in common sense, which is by far the better degree. I asked her, her age. She told me 21, and I said “Wow, you are more mature than most adults”. I shook her hand and told her to drive home safely.
It was simply amazing how she opened up to me after I used the cube. This will be interesting to see how the second interaction goes. The cool thing was that I did not even play the game that long. It started as a game and ended with one of the most sincere first conversations in my life.
Evaluation of HB9-
I gave myself 8.7 out of 10. I was good tonight, but I could have worked on the transition point into the cube as mentioned above. I need to throw in more time constraints. I was distracted because she was enjoying herself, but she needs to feel as though she’s working to keep me there. Time constraints also are good because they show that you are not ditching your friends and that you’re loyal. I should have neged her at least once more. I told her that I thought she was a hand model. She had torn the skin where her cuticles meet her skin on her fingers. She was quite embarrassed when I said that, but she laughed and like it. She also had a cute overbite and I should have attack it too. Perhaps next time. Lastly, I messed up by not selling the deal with style’s number close. I have studied it and I will assume the sell on the next number close. I did get the number and she told me she’d like to hang out again. I had great time and I’ve been thinking about it ever since, is it not obvious? lol
