I went out and had a great night. Skills are improving. Still need to work on kino escalation more. Any resources on reverse approach anxiety. This HB 8 last night seemed to get really flustered and choked up. She just ran away from me. Also, while in set when a girl gazes at you with a smile? It's like a weird empty look. It looks like she's thinking of something else but still trying to show she's listening. Maybe that's my fucked up previous paranoid social conditioning. Overall I had a great time!

The first thing I would like to say is don't take this pick up shit too seriously. I know it can be a little mind blowing when you first jump into it, but the one piece of advice I continually give everyone here is don't forget that at the end of the day, all you are doing is connecting with another human being. No matter how much theory or practice you put into this endeavor, at the end of the day...that's all this is. The ultimate lover (in my opinion) is able to navigate both the left and right brain trains of thought with this shit. The girls you talked to at the club wasn't a "set". They were Stacy and Jennifer (I don't know what their names were). You should be able to be smart with how how you approach your dating life, without losing the human quality to the experience.

Okay with all that said, there is a term(s) thrown around in the community for when a girl is hooked after you start talking to her. I've heard it called "bambi eyes" or "anime eyes". The grain of truth here is that when you are on a girl's radar (RSD fanboys call this activating her reticular activating system RAS) it is noticeable by her facial expression and nonverbals. What I mean by "on her radar" is that you were able to open her and get her full attention. This doesn't necessarily mean she wants to swallow your pork sword (I'd say 95% of the time she is indeed interested), but at this point you have accomplished a big step which is simply grabbing her attention. If you do a lot of cold approaching, you will quickly be able to determine when you actually have a girl's attention or you don't.

I kinda loathe getting into technicalities like this nowadays, but I will do so to meet guys where they are at with the whole "game" thing so they can work through it. I'm not familiar with this "reverse AA" thing you are talking about. I feel like you are trying to tell me that the girls you are talking to seem anxious or nervous. This could be possible. Girls that I thought were standoffish or aloof have come out and told me later that they were actually quite nervous around me. If you are tuning into uncomfortable vibes in a girl, you could straight come out and ask her if she is nervous. If you are a fan of theory, one of the oldest formulas in the book stems from the old Mystery days. ACE. Attraction + Comfort + Escalation. A girl won't let you fuck her if she is not at all comfortable with you. It is like selling a great product to a customer. It will still be hard closing them if they don't trust you.

Thanks for weighing in Ensonytes. I absolutely see your point. Using the expression of female emotions as "data" does seem a little cold. I'm a huge nerd (I don't look like it). The outward expression of inward subconscious thoughts fascinates me. I'm an INTP personality type. So every set I engage is treated like an experiment. Beautiful women are like my science project. Cheers!
