Konbowa!

Hey so today after years of procrastination (I've been thinking about whether this stuff works or not since I was 16 now I'm 21 haha)

I joined the military when I was 19 and now I'm stationed in Okinawa, I kinda screwed myself with trying to learn pick up, in the military your time isn't always guaranteed. But I'm making do with what I have.

Here's everything that I've been applying so far.

First girl Hb5: It's around 11pm and I'm on base, I'd been looking up routines and openers all day and settled on the ESP routine following into "The Cube". I'm hungry so I go to the bases E-club. I get there, once I order my food from the Japanese girl working at the clubs little restaurant I game her.

Me: "Do you know ESP is?"
Her: "ESP?" (naturally she's confused because the average American girl doesn't know what ESP is so I know a Japanese girl won't) I explain that it's like being a psychic and my friend taught me a trick.

The girl gets excited so I run the routine and get the first right but the second wrong. Her numbers were 2 and 8. She's still happy that I got her first one right so I know I have her hooked. I run the cube immediately after and she gets excited again when I start explaining everything to her, like what I was saying was right. But before I could finish people kept coming up and I never finished.

For future reference how do I game girls who are working when it's very possible I may interrupted by her having to work?

I go to the club part of the place and see my friend and his fiance so I decide to stay and practice some more. But long story short I couldn't bring myself to open and sets. Saw a four set sitting at a table looking like they could use a great guy to show them a good time and I freeze up. Kept telling myself "Just do it" but couldn't bring myself to do it, my AA is bad sometimes *sigh*

Next day I run ESP on one of the females in my barracks just for practice and I freak her out, she wouldn't let me do the second part after I got her first number right lol. Is there a way to disarm a girl if she freaks out and reestablish control? Few hours later I run the cube on her and could see that I amazed her, but when I asked her for some elaboration she kinda shut me out. Am I not supposed to ask about her life after doing so well?

I decide to go out in town to day game with two of my friends. I play guitar so I use it as an opener, I come up to the set with a quick song and then run the esp routine into the cube. I see a two set of HB5's sitting down and eating ice cream, my AA is low when I have my guitar because I just come in order to entertain everyone before really gaming them. The AA had nothing to do with their looks because I thought they were cute from the distance I was at (I have bad eyesight haha). When I saw them I was like "oh well might as well finish this" So I sing the song, *applause* and run the routine on the cuter one of the two. I get BOTH RIGHT and they are AMAZED. I'm in. While I'm talking to them I'm having a hard time getting some words in so this half japanese guy listening to our convo helps me out by translating. By the time I was done one of the girls spoon fed me the ice cream she was eating IOI right? I eject eventually and come back to my friends.

5 minutes later I see a mixed 6 set 2 guys 4 girls HB 7's & 8's and I open them with my guitar again, they all start to take seats in front me so I got their attention. Once I finish I try to run ESP on them again but the language barrier is to difficult so being in the same place I was before I look for the guy who's working the bar and he's watching me again, I call him over translate and this time I run ESP on one of the girls and get both numbers right! The group is amazed, they ask me how and I tell my translator to tell them I'm psychic lol. So this time I run the cube on the same girl and again she is amazed thus amazing her friends. By this time I'm amazing everyone watching as I tell the girl truths about herself that I shouldn't know, my buddy comes up to the group as I'm doing the cube and him not knowing anything about the pick up arts think I'm just bullshitting these people the entire time I'm talking to them lol. Sadly I ran out of material after the cube and before it got weird I eject.

Lastly we go to the coffee shop and I try to open a two set one HB8 and her friend HB6. I try to open them but I think they caught my friend gazing at them and since he was just looking and not doing anything it lowered our value to them. Plus when I came in I said "Excuse me, do you know what ESP is, they got the usual Japanese "I don't know English look on their face" so I ask them if they know english. Of course they say no because I realized from my body language I had my hands clasped together in front of my balls FML" and me speaking too fast I was of low value. Plus the lowered value from my friends gazing killed any chance I have. That was my last approach for the day.

Questions: 1.) I feel fearless with my guitar but I don't want it to become a crutch to my game, if it wasn't for me having it I would have never approached that 6 set. 2.) I don't really know where to go as far as material goes after my ESP into cube routine, assuming it gets that far. How should I demonstrate value after my opener. 3.) I realized that I never negged a single person the entire day, with so many things going on I found it hard to think of everything I should be doing when I'm the one attracting all the attention. Also how do I neg someone who's has a hard time understanding Englsih? Anyone here used to negging foreign girls???

My BIG question is should I go out into clubs to practice without a wingman? We're not allowed to leave base without a buddy and I know none of my friends are into pua. I can get special permission to go out by myself but I would stay have to be back to my place of residence my midnight. (The restrictions here for military personal are rough -_-) We're also not allowed to drink outside of base so I was wondering if that would make people feel weird that I'm out by myself (being Japanese clubs I don't know how many Americans would be in one, especially seeing as we can't drink off base.)

I think that about covers it. Comments are appreciated

Go out, and don't worry about solo sarging at clubs. The best thing to do is to say you are meeting friends soon. Run about three sets and bounce to a different venue if you haven't hooked in that time.

Also your friends may not be in to pick up and that's fine, don't even bother to tell them about it. There are however interested in women I never told many of my afc buddies about pick up but they were always willing wingmen because I always had women around.

Great job, working do many sets, the only way to get better at picking up women, is by picking up women.

Thanks for responding bro! If this really works I'll give it my best shot, but being so restricted makes me feel like I won't be getting anything worthwhile out of it seeeing as I can't even be out past midnight. I leave back to the states soon so I'll be able to sarge properly, but since I decided to start now I want to get into the routine of it all till I get back. Wish I started all this sooner haha.

Question, did you see anywhere I could've improved during my sets?

Dude what you did was awesome! Especially wiith the language barrier. I'm a gaijin in Japan too, with little Japanese to work with, so I admire what your doing.

Now I'm new to game so you don't have to take my advice seriously, but hey I'm just trying to help. With your guitar crutch you said you go into the set with I'm here to entertain frame, which is great. Without it the best way to look at it (I think) is that I'm here to practice pick up instead of pick up, just don't worry about the outcome and focus only on getting the opening and routines nailed.

I've got a girlfriend already, I just want to build a massive group of female friends just to look pimping with when I go out and to do fun shit with. So I have the perfect AA fix, I'm not here to pick them up, running through my head. But I still run game on the girls (which isn't much at this stage).

Also are you using kino, sounds like it's vital to picking up and something that should be employeed early in your interactions. I got the begginers PUA kit from Chief, I recommend you get that if you haven't already.

Good luck brother!

Thanks bro! Thanks for the advice! I didn't use any kino now that I think about it, I gotta learn to stay ahead of the game when running my routines. I kinda get caught up in the fact that I'm talking to so many strangers and hitting it off with them that I forgot to kino and neg. I'll be sure to check out the beginners PUA kit, it sounds interesting.

Where do you live in Japan? I'm thinking about taking some leave to tokyo in a month or two and a wingman would be awesome.

No problem mate, glad I could help. Unfortunately I'm all the way up in Hokkaido, would be damn keen to go on the prowl though.
