Hi Mates,
Today I have met Gambit to go sarge in Kings Cross. Nice Guy... The other guy who was suppose to join us could not make it.
I have got there earlier and spend some time at the World Bar, it was kind of empty because I got there before 9pm, so I order a cocktail teapot while I was waiting for my wing man. I noticed this huge group that had 3 attractive blondes (would say HB8), I could not guess how many they were, but their social dynamic did not look like a date, although there were many more guys than chicks... I supposed they could just be some group of back packers that share the same hostel and came together to party, but it was just a guess. Later in this story the reason I am telling this will be explained.
Gambit got there and we decided change venues. Went to the Empire, it was kind of empty too, but we hang around there just talking while we waited to the place to get full.
After some time I see the same groups of guys and chicks that I have seen on the previous venue arriving at this place, and some of them sit around where we were sitting, including the blond I liked the most. I open one of the guys and found out they are all from the Aurtralian Royal Navy and they are in Sydney for 3 days only doing some training. I crack some jokes, the guy is a little of drunk. I asked how many they were and he told me around 15! Then I asked to him: "Hey, if I get into a fight would you guys cover my back?" He crack up a laugh and promise to protect me. Then I exploited his good mood: "Hey do you consider yourself a Gentleman?" He bites and say yes... And I say: "then you should introduce me your friends!" pointing to my favorite blond. He actually introduce us, I try to start a conversations but without success, Gambit tries too, but without success as well. Whatever, lets move on.
We bounce to another venue and the vibe is good but looks like there is to much celebrities there for our small game and it is still a little empty!!!
Bounce again to another venue, and it is too loud to approach anyone, besides that, the people over there is kind of strange.
We decided to go back to the Empire, and agree that to force us to approach. We will challenge each other, in turns to see if we can get over the approach anxiety. For our surprise when we get there it seems like all the girls left the place or went to the toilete... The guys hugely outnumber the chicks. We hang around, I see the buddy from the navy again and try to talk to him, after all, there is other chicks that he did not introduce me. He hugs me, because he is even more drunk and suddenly I felt like I was in some Village People video clip. After the hug he told me they were leaving and say good bye. Meanwhile Gambit is trying to find a set to open, but the women head count is still low.
I propose him that I will find some set to open and he should join me afterwards to do the mid-game. I walked around, got a glass of water and saw these 2 chicks (HB 7 and
, that don't look like locals. I just sit around them, pretending I did not care that they are there, and try to come up with something to open them. I really don't like to use canned material to open, because this kind of stuff simply don't sound right when it comes out of my mouth. I usually try to use situational stuff... Out of blue the most bizarre and providential event happened. I weird looking guy sits in front of me and start starring at me. I check around to be sure it was with me and get the confirmation that it was the case. I assume he is gay and is trying to approach me... I stand up, sit by the side of the two chicks I was trying to open and say: "Do you see that guy over there (pointing to the weirdo over my shoulder) I think he is gay and he is trying to approach me! Can you tell me when he is gone and it is safe for me to look that way again? " Then I manage to crack some joke on the subject and introduced myself! They told me they were from Sweden and would be in the city for just tree days, because they are on a 2 month trip around the world. Wow, I think, swedish gilrs!!! That was my doom, because my AFC kicked in and I was not able to do anything right anymore. I told them jokes they laugh (actually one of the girls was so quiet that I have to make a joke saying that she was freaking me out with that face), then they offer me to sit in between then to be able to talk to both. At this point Gambit join us and I salute him, but I was not able to include him in the conversation... Don't know why. Poor eye contact, poor kino escalation, 10 minutes into this and I am becoming bff with them, luckly Gambit propose we change venues, I said good bye to them and we left.
We go to a bar that is not very nice and after a round we decide to go check out the celebrity place we have been before. On our way out we see the swedish girls getting in and I just say: "Are you following me?", The more talkative one answers: "yes". we leave anyway and we never see them again.
On this last venue we decide to call the night off. Actually after Gambit left I changed my mind and went into the World bar again. There I spot a set of three girls, one of with I would say was HB8.5 blond. She is using a very uncommon high hills shoe, and I thought I could use that as a opener, but she is so drunk that I could not find a way to talk with her that would not be weird. While I am standing there waiting for her attention to allow me to comment on her shoe, this HB6, kind of chubby girl, pass by me, checking me out... The HB6 sits in this sofa, cross her legs "Sharon Stone Style", turns them so that I can see and starts putting on her lipstick. "Me not stupid", easy kill, she was crying: "come and open me, I need some cock!". But I could not decide if and easy kill like that was worth my standards to go lower. I have promised myself never go for anything bellow HB7, and try to keep on 8 and above... I really went into analysis paralysis, thinking if it was better to stick to my standards or just seize the opportunity... While I was thinking about this the Blond HB8 that I was interested at first was in the dance floor grinding this EMO guy, and the easy kill pass by me stomping her feet on the ground as if to say "idiot you lost you window of opportunity".
That was enough for me. I called the night off. On my way home a whore offer me her services... I say, thanks but no thanks. Have a good night!
Summary: I stayed away from the dancing floor, and tried standard situational openings. I am still suffering from lack of confidence, and approach anxiety. Besides even after a successful approach my mid-game is non-existent. But I will keep trying to address my approach anxiety before concern myself with my mid-game.
Tomorrow I am meeting Gambit and Deeper to go sarge again!
Cheers!
