Hi Guys,

I read the game 6 years ago and noticed some big improvements. It led to a 4 year relationship and now I have moved to a new country for work where I know few people. It is the perfect environment to take this seriously. I left a relationship at home so have been used to the company of a woman for some time. I find women addictive.

I have been fairly inactive here. In 4 months I haven't been with anyone bar a travelling ex and a mad woman I met online. I decided two weeks ago to really give this a proper go. I can be a sociable person but normally don't pay too much attention to what's going on around me.

So I listened to the game audiobook and checked out a few articles here. On my first day I went for a coffee in a nearby café. The waitress was an 8. I had no game planned but to start a conversation(something I would not naturally do). I told her I was new to the area and could she recommend any good places to hang out. She was so friendly and loving just simply being talked to. We chatted for a while about how she missed home and I told her she must show me around. She then wrote her name on paper and told me to add her on Facebook and if I was bored one night we could go out. Unfortunately she mentioned she was married about 3 times. But the whole experience for me was an eye opener. I would never normally talk to someone in this situation. It was an amazing start and I was motivated to continue. I left café and opened two girls on the street looking for directions. Both gave me shoulder and I continued about my day. I went to the café again this weekend and continued to talk with the 8. I had been doing some reading and I tried the blind date opener. It went quite well. I was planning to close on a night out but the opportunity passed me but I'm happy to keep this woman as practice.

As I mentioned since I got here I have been relatively inactive so much so that I actually crave the company of a woman. That is not good. I have cut down on masturbation as I am hoping lack of it will motivate me to find women faster. I'm 3 days in. I read last night about a PUA who approached 1000 women in a year to get good. I am now trying to aim for 3/day to emulate this. This officially started today. I failed.

So today I spent 8 hours in work thinking about women. I think my fap ban was doing something as all I wanted to do was run around the streets searching for one. I had made my 3 approach a day promise to myself. These approaches currently are just attempts to create conversation. I'll get more serious as I progress.

So after work I was sitting in kitchen and this 8 walks in and uses coffee machine. I was on other end of café and went over close to her and said she shoud be very careful drinking coffee at this hour. She laughed and I froze. Message to self: Practice , practice , practice. I was still happy with progress. I decided I would go to street then. I walked along to the mall and something mad happened, a French girl opened me! Well she asked me directions. It was so weird as I probably would have said the same thing to whoever I stopped. I saw she was younger and seemed happy to keep chatting. It didn't take my long to siscover she was looking for the park, was here alone for the weekend and looked like she could do with company. I'm 28 by the way and look 30ish. This girl looked about 22 and was a 7. It was natural at start and then I told her I was walking towards park. We chatted about lots and I was telling her I was new as well and good places to go. We ended up going to park, tourist stuff, dinner and a drink. I felt in control. She was a bit younger and possibly innocent but I was flirting and kino'ing well and she was responding. My ability was disgraceful in closing.

I played the 5 questions game but didn't have the balls to ask her for a kiss if I won. I instead asked her to drink someones drink at the bar. Then I walked her home. We stopped in an adult shop(her suggestion) I went with it and joked we get some movies and watch them. I was pretty forward without being full on putting her on the spot. At the bar she told me she was 20 and I felt really old and a bit like an older brother. I think this thinking fucked things.

I walked her home and we kissed on the cheek and that was it. I'd say If I kiss closed I could have been in there and possibly more but I bottled. The whole day was hugely positive but there are big gaps to fill. Sorry If this is too long but I would appreciate any feedback on this failure. I never asked her the question so I'll never know. I'm only half way through game. Does anyone recommend some material to read/watch? I'm going to krrp this journal going as long as possible to keep me motivated.

Hey guys,

So I've been keeping to my goals as best as I can. On my first week I aimed for 3/day approaches. I ended up with 12 in a week. I found it quite difficult and pussied out of approaching a few babes but did give out to myself for it. I am approaching girls in streets, shops, train station and work. I found at beginning I needed to be in the mood for it but now I'm really enjoying it and hitting my 3 per day. I'm really noticing diferences already in my game and my responses from women. My opener is just about being lost looking for directions to somewhere so I would appreciate any fresh lines. I'd love a line I can stop anyone with on street and It wouldn't seem weird.

This morning I was at bus stop and got chatting to an 8. It was going really well. My only fault was getting on my bus. With more time I might have got somewhere. We were definitely flirting. I'll be hitting that bus stop at the same time for a month!

My best success came walking home from work late through park tonight. Thre was a girl ahead singing aloud in the dark with earphones in. I was behind her and at risk of looking like creepy stalker so I sped up until she saw me and I complimented her singing. She was embarrassed and we got chatting and she was hurling IOI's at me. I pretended her direction home was mine for a while and when we parted I used a line I Picked up here " I'd like if we could continue this some time" and then I just stayed silent looking at her. She grabbed her phone and asked did I have SPAM. the beegees song staying alive started playing in my head. In my happy state I said my phone was out of battery so she took my number. Boom. Happy days.

At my current level I am hitting a wall. When I am faced with a 9-10 on the street I cant think how to open. Even asking for directions seems petty. So imagine you're walking up street and this babe is 10 metres ahead of you. What your opener?

Any tips would me much appreciated. I am documenting everything to monitor progress.

Approaches since D-day 21
