Well, I decided to have a go at the poking Facebook routine in which you send a message to them once they've poked you back. I poked a few girls and a HB8 poked me back. This is how it went

Me: Hey, you know its not safe to poke strangers! I guess your parents never taught you that

HB8: You poked me first! So i guess your parents never taught you either! Thanks:)

Me: Well no, they didn't. I can already tell, YOU'RE TROUBLE!

HB8: Trouble? One you dont know me and you just poked me again! Your parents didnt teach you manner's either!

Me: Manners? I have manners, you just looked very pokable, and who am I to go against that? Besides, you poked me back, do you always poke back random people? I guess you're the one that doesn't have manners

HB8: Ok love, i poked you back because i have mates called daniel then i get a Fucking inbox from you saying this Crap leave it out and go jog on you mong.

Where did I go wrong? I was trying to come across friendly and playful, did I do something wrong? or is she just a bad egg?

I haven't done much of the Facebook Poke Routine, but I'd say that's where you went wrong. First you jump through her hoop and qualify yourself, "I have manners," you explain your actions "you poked me back" you repeated the earlier line "do you poke back random people" and then you insulted her rather than negging her, "you're the one that doesn't have manners."

I think you did really well up until that point. But after that...it's going to be tough to recover; though...she bothered to write you and say to "jog on" so you might still be able to turn it around. It'd take the perfect message though.

Ok Mig summarised where you went wrong very well, as she replied with
"HB8: Ok love, i poked you back because i have mates called daniel then i get a Fucking inbox from you saying this Crap leave it out and go jog on you mong."

You have angered her, Provoked a attack bitch shield, it is my opinion that becuase she has been bothered to reply, that this situation is very recoverable if she is hot enough for you to put in the effort to try and recover, if a girl really doesnt like you/doesnt want to speak to you she will block you or not reply.

Pm me and ill send almost the exact response i sent to a women who i anoyed, and it worked a charm for me, dont really want to post it, yet or everyone will run around using it and it will become saturated and uneffective.

The way I see it, you didn't transition away from the cutesy "you poked me back LAWL" crap off the bat.

The fuck is the point of those pokes anyway?

Art Sandusky "The fuck is the point of those pokes anyway? "- I have to agree...I guess a lot of online PUA's have done well with them...but I guess they seem a bit DLV to me. It's like winking on OkCupid... But...I haven't field tested the pokes so I won't rag on them until I have.

jtaz - The point of the online forums is to get ideas out there to other guys. Don't tell him exactly what to write...but share with everyone the technique you use to write a response. That way everyone can learn and use their own stuff. Honestly...there are few enough of us that your material shouldn't get too diluted.

Thanks for the advice guys. That girl was a lost cause, but I've poked a few other girls and this one in particular seems to have gone fairly well. This girl is actually a model, I'd say HB9.5

Me: You know it's not safe to poke strangers :O I guess your parents never taught you that

HB: Well, uhm. Actually you poked me first?

Me: You looked very pokable, but tell me, do you always poke back strangers?

HB: Well to be fair, and don't want to make you feel shit, i just generally get the notifaction on my phone, and click poke back, i mean whats the harm in beng poked/poking someone?

Me: Lol, I can already tell, YOU'RE TROUBLE! My mother warned me about girls like you

HB: Your mothers never met a girl like me.

Me: Oh, you're one of those girls

HB: What girls?

HB: (a couple of minutes later) ......

Me: Oh, you know what i'm talking about

HB: I'm one of a kind darling

Me: Are you? That's good. So what is there to you besides from your good looks? Is there more than meets the eye?

HB: Intelligence, independance, unique, and fucking hillarious;)

After that the conversation turned more sexual. I believe she was chasing me, and then qualified herself to me.

Did she actually say that, exactly like that? How long did you wait before responding? Cause it sounds like you really did well with that HB 9.5! You get her number too?

Yep she just sent a message with dots, I actually just went to get a drink and then came back to see that, so I waited an extra 10 minutes before replying. Yep, I number closed her this morning, now we're texting.

Sounds good man. Keep us posted!
