Well today I visited the local Barnes n Nobles because I needed to get a study guide for the SATs...anyways, before I ventured into the SAT section, I was looking through books in the sports section when I caught the eye of a HB7 who was definately my type. She wasnt really eye fucking the shit out of me, but she was glancing over at me, definately checking me out.

I should of used the 3 second rule and gone over, but Ive never cold approached a girl during the day so like always I got nervous. Anyways I was in the sports section for a few minutes, just looking through several books when I notice her starting to come closer, and eventually she was "looking" for books in the sports question. Although it was pretty obvious that she wasnt looking for a sports book, so I took that as a huge proximity IOI.

But then I couldnt muster up the courage to say a damn thing. I was trying to think of suitable openers in my head, but I was drawing blanks. I guess I was a little surprised that I got a proximity IOI during the day, because its the first one that was very obvious to me since I began to learn the game. Anyways, ive been mulling over this failure to open all day, and I wasnt even going to post since I know what I shouldve done. But I decided, that anything to re-state the simple teachings, will help me get them embedded in my mind.

You don't need a opener. Just say whatever pops into your head.


PUA:Are you following me?
HB: No
PUA: Good because I can't deal with another stalker. Well I found the book I wanted. (Smile) You look like alot fun and It would be fun getting to know you. Would you like to join me for some coffee.

I know there is a coffee place inside most book stores. Its that simple. You ain't always got to have a very cool opener just gotta have a DHV and a neg ready.

haha man i know the feeling.

I work at a big chain book store like that, which is it's own double sided store. On the positive side i have free range to approach who ever i want, its pretty much required. The major downside is that it's hard to be seen as anything but a bookseller, and it's hard to close without looking like a creep.

Book stores are definitely a nice place to find the ladies though, especially if you are looking for more down to earth girls rather than crazy club girls. Girl in the sports section however, is usually buying her b/f a birthday present. But it is a good sign to know that since she thinks he might actually like a sports book for his b-day, they are probably not that close.

Ya, bookstore girls are definately more of my type than crazy club girls...sure I want a fun girl, but i want someone who I can converse with intellectually about all sorts of things which seems to be the bookstore type.

And about the sports section, she pretty much didnt even give herself time to even consider a book, cuz she was walking past everything, but pretending to look at the same time...then she stopped on my right...pretended to look closely, then kept going...fuck I shoulda said atleast made eye contact and said "hi" haha

This is what I dont understand. If you get an IOI, then you know your golden. You can say anything as long as it isnt stupid and go from there...and even if you do say something stupid...who cares?


its funny, same sort of thing happened to my buddy at the club last night..but this chick was an HB9.5 and he couldn't get the balls to say anything evne though it was obvious she wanted him

Just say what you think. You knew she was there for you, not for the books. Confront her with it (and a nice Colgate Smile ;))

It's the confidence and nerve that may be your issue. It's tough, but when you try to say what you think, it gets a lot easier. No need to remember openers or routines. Say "hi". When she responds (and trust me, she will), just let it be natural. When cruising at bars and pubs, you need to be witty and interesting. At days it is slightly different. You still need to prove that you're interesting, but it's usually less competition around - and you can always use the "we just bumped into each other" reason for talking. here, you ended up in the same book section. That's more than a reason to say "hi". No need to do the whole approach.

Good luck, pal.

Even from this phrase I can see that you have an entire system of beliefs like(I'm not saying that you know about them consciously)
Something in the lines of this:
* "If I did something many times and it didn't work, now it shouldn't as well."
* "I should do something, I should approach instead of not doing it; because If I don't do it..I will do/feel ...[insert here] again in the same way"
* "I get nervous just before approaching a girl"
* "I need to know & have in mind a good/perfect opener before going and talking with a girl"

By the way: the 3 second rule is not something that you...use..it is something that you do without even thinking about it.

More thinking and a better opener won't do it.

How come she can't be looking for sports books? I mean really who buys sports books anyway, but if you say that to her wont it come off sexist?

I dunno, I used to have the same problem but if you have the "don't care" attitude you'll be fine. I think most men have fragile egos.

You have 2 choices:

1. Be completely confident

2. Don't give a shit

Pick one and become it, and you will have no problems with women.
