Location: My store at the Mall

I just got home from work about an hour ago and Im just kicking myself in the head for my failure to try and #-Close this HB7.5 who came into my store today...

So this 2 set walks into the clothing store I work at and its clear that one of them is shopping for her boyfriend. Luckily, the obstacle is the one doing the shopping and my target the HB7.5 is basically just tagging along. Now basically my job just requires me to stand or walk around in the store and wait to help people. So when I saw her walking towards me, I was leaning against the wall and just opened with "Hey hows it going?" and the conversation pretty much just went very naturally. Throughout the convo I noticed her giving me IOIs as she sort've sought my approval with statements. Re-initiated convo when I stopped talking. So I knew I had to find a way to go for the number close.

Soon enough her friend works her way back to where we are talking and is asking me for help with some jeans, even though my co-worker was already helping her. The obstacles is trying to compare my size to her BF because she wasnt sure which size jeans to buy. I gave them a hard time about them trying to make me their manequin and they were laughing at the stuff I was saying. When I had to do a full turn around to show them the jeans I was wearing, my target commented on how I had a nice butt LOL. So if there was any doubt in my mind, it was erased after this comment.

The only problem was for some reason I couldnt bring myself to ask for her number in front of her friend. And right now Im just kicking myself in the head because I should've just pulled her aside!!!! or I could've just manned up and closed in front of the obstacle. I honestly feel like a fucking idiot because I just threw away good opportunity. The whole reason I took this job was so I would force myself to work on my day game, because Id much rather meet a girl during the day than in a bar at night.

Oh well, Ive been through all sorts of situations enough times now, that I understand that screwing up is all apart of the learning process in this game. My one question though is, how would you have gone about going for the #-Close in this situation? Is it as simple as the ideas I mentioned above? Or does anyone else have any other sortve of input or advice?

theyre on your turf! u have home field advantage. if its a cool clothing store than youre automatically cool for working there. ALWAYS remember that. chicks feel good about themselves when they get a guy who is working in a cool spot. its like u pickin up a hot bartender. -- anyway --- my job gives me similar opportunities,

suggestions:
"how am i gona see how these jeans actually fit this guy"
(eluding to a double date or some kinda second meeting without showing interest in the girl. but u got IOIs so its ok to ask straight up when ur at work) u can use that line when u didnt get obvious IOIs tho.

but if u got the iois than its ok to be bold at work, its not like ur just walkin the street, she will feel chosen and special if u ask for her number. i KNOW she thinks u get hit on all the time at work by girls like her. so let her think it. if she compliments ur butt say thanks but act like u heard it before!

this next one is GOLDEN---

if shes buyin shit for herself:
"where do u plan on wearing this outfit?" ur askin as a worker but then relate to it. if u been to the spot shes goin u can talk about it, maybe even act like its a lame place, or my fav, act like u already had plans of goin there and u 2 can meet there. "how r u gona find me?" (dont say "how am i gona find you"- its too try hard) obvious answer: gime the digits. have pen and paper easily accessible at a desk somewhere. i like using pen and paper at work, makes it seem like shes gota work before she makes it in my contacts list. leme know how it goes!

All things considered, its a solid effort mate. Learn from your mistakes; since your kicking yourself for not getting her number, you know what you did wrong, just make sure you don't do it again.

I'm new to the game brother, but it sounds like you really had every advantage and had played your game well. You already know the answer, you should have just gone for it. There's no shame in crashing and burning, but you'll always kick yourself for not trying.

Gettin blown out is a part of the game. its expected, that means youre puttin in effort at getn hotties. not even trying?... thats just pathetic and shameful. (this is meant to motivate, not put down)

Thanks guys. I guess your all right. I played it well, just gotta close next time. Pretty simple.
