I am still very new to the online scene and to PUA, but I am ready to end the "education masturbation" and get out there. Here is one of my first number closes, it was fast, easy and left me a bit surprised lol. I would say she is an HB8, probably an HB9 a few years back (she is nearly 40 and I am 26). Any advice or input is appreciated!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(she viewed my profile so I used this opener)
ME: You can say hello. Don't worry I won't bite, just a little nibble.
HB: Lol.. Too cute
(her profile says she like soldiers and I use to be one)
ME: Don't get to excited, I am not a soldier anymore, but you can still support me
HB: Haha.. I read your profile & knew you weren't. But thank you for all you did for me & everyone else.

why would you think I'd get excited over you being a soldier?
ME: Well we both know it's my good looks that got you excited.
HB: Your eyes are amazing, yes I admit that. But like your profile, but your younger then I am & a little far from me..
HB: Confident aren't you
(we live about 3 hours apart)
ME: Don't let the small things hold you back, you won't be driving too much
HB: Well what's that suppose to mean? Lol..
(she set me as a pof favorite)
ME: A little distance won't stop you from meeting your favorite person on the internet would it?
HB: Just a meeting & my favorite person ?!?!
(At this point I began to over think my response, because I wanted to sexualize the "just a meeting... ?" part, but I went with my buddies advice instead)
ME: Just a meeting to make sure you're not a nutter. If you're not, maybe more... but no promises.
HB: A nutter, wow.. Maybe your a nutter
(and then I used a canned line, it was probably a mistake)
ME: Yeah a little. I am actually luring women to my house with candy, which do you prefer skittles or M&M's?
HB: Haha!! I bet your getting a lot to head that direction right as I'm typing this. It'll take more then candy to lure me that direction, I'm not a typical whorish pick up chick..
(that felt like resistance or a shit test, so I put things back into focus
ME: Let's not forget who's the prize here.
HB: And who is that?
(always looking for a good opportunity to call them Woman!)
ME: Damn women, don't play games!
HB: Honestly don't like games, drama, players, cheaters or fake people. I'm as real as they get. What you see is what you get ::)) but you could be thinking your the prize..
ME: Okay good, I'm not trying to waste time either. Give me your number and I'll call you tomorrow evening.
HB: Well that's just straight to the point. Collecting numbers are you? Just kidding. You do realize I'm much older then you, right?
ME: Look, I gotta run. You look around my age, so what's the big deal? Just drop the digits and I'll call you tomorrow.
HB: xxx-xxx-xxxx. And gotta say your pretty straight forward. Have a good night

And that's it, I still haven't called though. What do you think?
