So let me introduce myself, Im Julian, 20 years old, college student. Well i had gone through a horrible break up with ex baby momma and i'm picking myself back up and not allowing myself to become a major chode because of her. I am there for my son all the time and spend good quality time with him so no hatting about focusing on being a father, this is what i do on my past time is pickup. Well i also go to the gym almost everyday so i'm pretty fit for the most part. Well i'm starting this journey and writing it down almost to keep track of myself as well with opinions and tips from others. I am still quiet nervous to approach and still working on building my inner game. Don't get me wrong i do get girls but i want to practice my game in picking them up not having them come to me over social media or vice versa.

First Approach Since Practicing (New Year's Eve): Me and a buddie were out of town and we needed to find a place to party so we hit up the local mall in Phoenix somewhere. Two girl's had been walking towards us so i quickly approached.
Me: "Excuse me this is completely random guy's but im not from around here? But do you know anything that is going on tonight for New Years Eve?"
Girls: I can only remember the fact that they responded no, but did not show bad body language.
We did talk for about 5 mins but i was to wuss to number close. So i said goodbye and left after awhile.
I believe my problem was not being able to number close, and i do recall paying attention more to the target at first than the other girl.

Second Approach was a waitress at applebee's: Well although i was with a group of friends i believe she kept on eyeing me. Sitting down when some of the friend's went to use the restroom i was there with a couple of buddies and asked her to come over. I politely asked for her number. She kept quiet as if she was thinking about it and i made the mistake by saying "Oh you have a boyfriend huh?" And she said yes. So basically i made an excuse for her and lost that chance.

Another approach was at the gym. Well i had seen this girl around and i figured i'd give it a shot. I noticed her workout body left for the restroom so i quickly approached.
Me: "Excuse me, was that your boyfriend?" Big mistake i know.
Her "No but i have one"
Me "Haha ok" Then i just walked off like i didn't care.

Most recent approach was last night. It wasn't too much of an approach though but a successful number close. Well it was at a concert and well it mostly happened cause these two crazy guys pushed themselves to the front and i ended up behind her. Well they were jumping and being crazy and we kept looking at each other and laughing at their behavior. They kept on pushing around so she kept getting kinda squished so i pushed my arm around her and grabbed on to the front railing. I said "Those guys are crazy" And she responded and laughed. Well the crazy guy tried to dance with her and she said no that she would dance with me and wrapped her arm around me. And we jammed out together basically. Well we would try and say little things to each other now and then, I did joke around how i wouldn't let her die because all the people pushing and she seemed ok with that and said i should, well i kinda kino'd and i did have one arm on her waist. But my "friend" kept trying to cock block and steal her-_- Long story short at the end of the night before it ended, I pulled out my phone, had the contact list ready and said
Me: "Her put your number in my phone and if your down we can go (Forgot what i said) Sometime?"
Her: "ok" with a smile on her face.
After that we got mixed up in the crowd but she saw me before leaving and came up and said goodbye and i introduced myself before letting her go. I should have reassured she remembered my name but i didn't.

Other than that im slighlty satisfied i atleast had one success but i want MORE! I need to approach more women. And get over my fear and nervousness. Let me know what you guys think. Thank You! More to come.
