| Day 13 COMPLETE:
First 14 were hard...just like the last time I had to give non-sexual compliments, it all sounded...unnatural. After 14 I couldn't take it anymore and I moved to complimenting their look: "Hi, you look (absolutely) stunning, I just couldn't walk past (let you walk past) and say nothing" and variations of that. Some of them stood there in shock and said nothing (some of them in the first 14), I thought i'd suggest them to say "thanks" (it's a compliment, if their mother didn't teach them how to accept one, somebody has to!). If i feel the need to say something now I will (even to the ones that have negative reactions), because I don't owe them anything (such as their comfort) and If it makes me feel good (even if it can be offensive for them...even though I believe all of them earned it well) i'll do it. Because fuck you.
Regarding the non-sexual state I think I managed that quite well. I was focused on other things so it didn't really cross my mind to think about it.
What reactions I got in the second part (last 16):
-one in a group laughed when I got to the part where I told her she looks great, I replied "No? It's so far from the truth just hearing it makes you burst into laughter? (not the exact quote, but you get my point). I actually believe that's what happen, she didn't really expect anybody to tell her she's beautiful so that's the only reaction she had, being in a group pushed her to that too (after freezing up).
-most of them stopped after I said Hi, and I got to move on to the compliment (had only 1 or 2 who walked past)
-one told me she knows she looks great, after smiling (she did look stunning indeed), I admired her confidence and the way she reacted. Kudos to her.
-just didn't care about negative reactions, didn't affect my state even if I replied to some, it made me feel even better not sucking it up
-talked to most of them, they were meeting their boyfriends (it was friday and quite late so i'll take that, I asked the boyfriends name and they replied quite quickly); (either way, the point of the exercise, as I was reminded today by it, is not to improve my game but my state control and confidence), I told them he's a lucky guy
-after the "opener" I improvised depending on the girl and her reactions...in some cases I screwed myself over (I got the conversation into a dead end, I didn't push it when I could of, DLVed)...but i'm learning from it and I can go out anytime and do it again so no biggie
-longest interaction: 2 hb waiting for someone, I just said goodbye to my friend that was leaving then I saw them; I walk up to them and say:
-Hi, you look stunning!
one of them gives me her hand (by her own volition, before I say anything), we shake hand and I tell her my name. She tells me her name and her friend's name while still holding my hand. Her friend was instantly cold to me, didn't shake hands and said "You're not !" ...I tell her "I most certainly am". (aparently they were waiting for a guy that had the same name as me...and probably never met him before...at least the one that didn't cockblock me didn't meet him)
They told me they are waiting for , I asked them which one, cockblock was quick to reply and said both of them. I said Anderson must be pretty lucky.
Somewhere at the start of the conversation the one I engaged first (I'll call her HB Nice, to distinguish from the HB cockblock) asked me if this is some kind of bet or something (aprently she heard me telling my friend I got 7 left before we said goodbye). I told her absolutely not, I just saw her and wanted to say hi, I knew i'd regret it later if I just walked away saying nothing. (she believed it and admired the honesty, I think...)
-cockblock suggested they're together (lesbians), I turned it around asking if I can watch, talked a bit about that
-eventually HB cockblock lets me know Anderson is coming, I go to the guy shake hands and introduce myself, tell him he's a lucky guy and wish them a great evening
I don't know if I could have kept going and not leave...I did need someone to entertain the cockblock and the "real" Anderson coming could of handled that (cockblock had her toy and the extra had me...she did seem quite happy I came along). HB nice didn't even seem to know how the "real" Anderson looks like (she confused me for him initially). Oh well...keep walking...keep learning. [I'd appreciate your input on this]
That's it for today...until tomorrow...this is Anderson and I keep walking.
PS: i've done something extra today...I was talking to my friend about what could get you slapped on the street...and I figured best way to find out is to ask..and try. So i've asked a few sets:
-set 1 (2 hb): -Hi, what would I have to tell you (to get you so offended) to make you slap me right here on the street?
HB-I don't know...I really don't know (they were smiling etc.)
ME-I want you to really think about it! (she laughs and starts walking away)
HB-I don't know...I don't think anything could make me slap you...
ME-Let's try a few things and find out? (she walked away, if they do that I don't really like to follow them around)
I remember a part from a stand up comedy show with Jimmy Carr in which he talks about the most offensive joke he knows: "I've been asked a lot of times what's the most offensive joke...but I can't really know that because everybody gets offended by different stuff. But we can try to find out!" then he goes on and says a bunch of offensive jokes.
-set 2(2 hb) -Same intro as before
-I don't know (smiles and starts blushing)
ME-Try to regard this with seriousness, it's for science! Think reaaaaalll hard!
HB:....
ME:-What if I told you i'd like to put my dick between your tits and fuck them, would that get me slapped?
HB:(giggles) erm..no..
Me:-Alright, let's try something else (here I had a pause since I had nothing queued up and I hesitated saying some really nasty stuff)
Eventually the conversation died out (can't remember much else) just her saying that if it's something really offensive she'd just walk away and ignore it, she won't really slap anybody. Regarding this I mentioned only compliments(even if they are extremely sexual) count, not all out insults.
Regarding getting slapped in the street (for very direct approaches, such as apocalypse opener)...I don't really think it's likely to happen (or at least very rarely) for a couple of reasons: you need balls to slap a guy that opens you like that (you never know how he might react...you might get punched back); it's alot easier to just ignore it and walk away (and people are educated to act like this, especially girls that get hit on by afcs in groups yelling stuff to them); people are trained to avoid conflict and confruntation (you'd need a really hardcore chick to slap you, on the other hand a hardcore chick wouldn't mind you being straight forward); the slap is more for others then for you (group needs to see she reacted somehow, I remember the silly slaps made just to be made to guys that went "too far" touching them while their friends watched); there are a lot more chances to get insulted (or slapped?) for a shitty afc compliment such as the non sexual ones I had to make(that sounded very unnatural too) then for something that is balls to the wall direct. _________________ Keep walking...
