| Just a quick account of last night and my critical error.
I am fairly new to PUA techniques, but I'm a very quick learner and didn't have absolutely horrible luck with women before deciding to simply improve my social life and game all at once and learn some new things about social dynamics. I delve 100% into whatever I'm doing. I've only been familiar with PUA for about a week, but my conversations and success has been so much better already. I can't wait to be the best I can. Anyway, on to the story.
Last night while speaking to a fellow musician at the local bar (neither of us were working/playing last night) two girls were standing near. One was a little large and homely, but the other was easily a 9...someone I wouldn't normally bother speaking to BEFORE LEARNING ABOUT PUA. I said fuck it, and wasted no time to introduce myself. I was immediately given a shit test. Me: what is your favorite talent. Her: being fucking adorable *looks away*. I was exhausted yesterday and feeling a little slap happy. At this point I wanted to fuck with her a little, and just kind of tease her, so I did. Me: that's not a talent, I meant something real. Her: *laughs* i'm not good at anything. After a few more back and forths she opened up. I said she is probably a teacher because she communicates so directly and effectively (I was right, but just dumb luck probably). She said she was a psych/social major and studied reading people. I asked her to do this to me. She nervously declined, then I asked again and failed. We both realized that I just did a better job reading her than she did me. Felt good. At this point, I realized her feet were crossed, she was engaging me 100% and even had her back turned to her friend within 2 minutes. I had started kino at this point. I began with a friendly high five, but kept her hand in mine for another 5 seconds. I let go, not her. I escalated and tested the waters. She was ok with everything. I stepped to the side a bit, she turned to me. I stepped in closer, almost unreasonably close (the band was very loud though). Everything I did was received with positive body language or an IOI. Her friend kept bugging her to leave, but she remained engaged. When I realized that they legitimately did need to leave and it wasn't just an excuse, I immediately tried to close. Her: *turns to me* I need to take my friend somewhere, but I'll be back. Me: I have to leave soon as well, but we should see each other again. Her: *smiles, then looks down* I don't think my boyfriend would like that very much. At this point, I almost instantly reverted to my previously socially conditioned self. I did manage to keep the conversation going another 2-3 minutes (something I never would have done before). I found out he lived 3 hours away, and she genuinely didn't seem happy with him (inferred, i didn't ask that). I failed when I said: sorry, you were just giving me good vibes for the past 30 minutes. It pretty much ended there.
Ok, so first, I managed to get much, much further than I would have dreamed of two weeks ago. I wouldn't have even engaged her two weeks ago. I have no intent to steal anyone's girl, I think that is wrong. However, looking back i realized she actually wasn't happy with this guy, and there are a few things I could have done, like simply asking if she was happy with him. I probably could have just said: what's wrong with two people having an intelligent conversation over a coffee...or something like that. Anyway, I shut down. I'm not sure if this was actually a shit test or genuine. I later asked another friend of hers (male) if she did in fact have a boyfriend, and she wasn't lying. Anyway, I thought the interaction was interesting, and even though I shut down in the end, it went much better than I ever could've done before. Any critique would be great, thanks.
