So today I went out for some Day Game (and shopping and stuff), and thought I would debrief here to get some feedback. Overall it was alright, not the best Day Game outing but not the worst either. Annoyingly, suitable targets were few and far between (by themselves and around the right age), but I'm still taking more chances than I did back in the AFC days. And I've gotten far more numbers in the day than I have at night. But still, this is hard. I rarely have a day-time wing, but it would help.

The Good:

Approached single walking set direct, talked for a little while, then managed to number close. She said she was a model/promo person, who did a lot of travelling... I stacked forward immediately on the topic, and she was willing to talk and even asked me some questions. Could've handled the close better; initially she said Facebook was the best way to stay in touch, but I pushed for the number and made a point of meeting again (which I always do - gauging the reaction and making intentions clear), and she seemed a little on-the-fence before agreeing. But the number's real because I messaged on the spot as a test. I'll text again in a few days, and hope to have a response of any kind, but I'll post what happens here anyway. Oh, and I got into a good conversation with another girl, who seemed pretty open and interested, but only when I tried closing she said she already had a BF. But I'm still putting this in the good area because I handled it alright and she had a good attitude.

The Bad:

Let's see... first there was the one girl sitting down, just after my direct opener she said she had to get back to work, but I sat down and chatted anyway, then she politely excused herself and left. Shortly thereafter, I opened a two-set indirectly regarding an opinion about my hair or something, I could tell they were a bit reluctant at first, never really hooked when I sat and talked, then said they had to leave. They were counting stacks of coins on the table, so I used that observational thing: What's up with all the change? Go cash it in for notes (bills)." The set was dead early anyway; they barely gave me any eye contact and didn't hear clearly what I said even though I spoke loudly. Can anyone relate to lack of attention and interest, but you try ploughing through anyway? You have to really hold you nerve and being nonreactive to never eject too soon.

The Ugly:

Approached single walking set, then... she just walked off and ignored me before I could even finish the opener. Ouch? Once upon a time this would have bothered me, but now I don't care much about people being rude for no reason... it's their problem. Oh yeah, also forgot to mention I bumped into someone I had opened indirectly a few weeks ago and said hello again. I'd gotten her number but couldn't get through when I called - I mentioned this straight away. She said her phone was busted, and now she doesn't have one. She was with a friend and seemed eager to get away, even though I was fairly calm and friendly. Did I seem too needy or too nice or something? Keep in mind the first time around, the interaction went pretty well.

"Phone busted"


right. lol.


I don't know what you said, but if you said something like "I tried but I couldn't get through to you" that's AFC. Shoulda been cocky about it, negged her for it. Or you should have not even recognized her.

Yeah, I realise I still have a few AFC niggles to work out of my system. Just seeing this chick again was a surprise, so I figured doing something was better than nothing. She wasn't responsive as the first time around, and the phone thing gave me a hint that she wasn't interested anymore. Another path closes, many new ones are yet to open.

Well thanks to the 109 people who viewed this topic, even if only one person replied. I had texted that woman I number closed, a few days later, but with no response I'm thinking she was never fully interested and I've moved on. I've day gamed a few times since, but haven't managed to number close... the day setting is very unpredictable, and especially during the week (in non-holiday period) there can be a lack of decent opportunities arising. Keep in mind that when it comes to the street, I usually stick to single-sets (easier to close them directly).

Today however, I went out and someone I approached was a tourist (from Austria) who was willing to chat for a while and because she seemed pretty cool and friendly, I thought I might as well do the Facebook thing. A little earlier, I had approached another (local) girl and talked, but since she had a BF, I couldn't close and she was cool with giving me feedback (what she thought about me). That's something I've been doing more often... and what they say is usually positive! Overall, with warmer, sunny weather starting to increase, I was reminded of everyone having more relaxed, fun attitudes during Summer and how places seem to become more target-rich.

u sound like a confident pua mate your 90% of the way there only thing is i think you need to find some common ground for her to want to text you back e.g a film you both wanna see, or a club you both wanna go to its all about the raport. and another thing i like to do is get the number close then me make an excuse to go and say ill catch you in a bit.
hope this helped slightly boy wonder (sheffield)
