I've made considerable progress with my willigness to approach women and ability to hold short conversations on our surroundings/basic backgrounds. What I'm lacking right now is the ability to # close. Out of the ~15 approaches I've done, I got one # out of it, only b/c I saw this girl multiple times at the gym. If all I had was one chance to interact with her, I wouldn't have gotten it. I've read Roosh, I'm familar with his GALNUC model, although I've never tried it as it just doesn't seem to fit my vibe. Does anyone have any ideas about natural ways to transition asking for the # after a short, seeminly harmless, conversation with a woman? I understand it may be as simple as asking for the # outright, but I'm looking for a smooth transition to that request from normal small talk if nothing else.

Hi!

I've veen number closing for quite a while. Even managed to get the number of a cute girl who was working at McDonalds.

Could you tell me in a bit more detail where you get stuck? I usualy have a number within about 5 minutes of meeting a girl.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Love life!

If you have more time to stay in set, I would say future project and make plans instead of going for the number. This should happen naturally from having common interests.

If you or the girl is real short on time, then I suggest looking at videos of James Marshall. He has a video on number closing in a short time and the way he does it is he finds out a couple cool things about the girl, teases her a little on it, and shares a couple cool things about himself.

Literally, if the girl seems in a rush, he will say "tell me one (or a few) interesting things about yourself," and tease her a little on it. Then from there, he will share a few things about himself and ask for the number.

I don't have a link, but he has one video on specifically this problem.

And man, one out of 15 ain't that bad. When you watch the PUAs that actually show you sets where they don't get the number, or even when they get blown out, you'll start to realize that they get the number maybe 3 or 4 times out of 10. And some of those numbers may not even be solid.

Usually how I get a girls numbers is let's say I see her on the street, walking.

I stop her, and say something like, "Hey I saw you walking from over there, I though you were really cute
so I wanted to say Hi"

At this point, a girl will usually smile, and say Thank you.

And right after that, I say "If you were blonde (or whatever is her opposite hair color) you would totally
be my type..."

This gives her what I call a cold shower, where I'm not giving myself completely, but allow her to still
work herself for me.

Then I ask her something like, "So where are you headed?"

We talk about where she's going for couple of minutes. I usually tease her about it whatever it is.

If she says "I'm in a hurry to go to work" I say, "Why, they don't beat you with a cane for being late do they? I
mean who is your boss, let's go together I'll kick his ass..."

THEN after just couple of minutes of talking, I say this, "Ok, so I have to get going too. You seem like
you'd make a cool friend, we should hang out sometimes or something. Here, put your number in my
phone..."

And I give her my phone.

Usually she will just type in her number down and say, "I'd like that". Sometimes she will have some last
minute objection like, "I'm not sure I can give you my number..." or "Why do you want my number"

At this point, I make it a point to never lose composure and chicken out. If she tests me with something
like that, I say, "It's going to be fine...I'll just call you 10x per day as I obviously don't have anything else
to do..." or "So I can call you when I'm drunk and lonely at 2am in the morning...just put it down, it's
going to be OK..."

The important INNER GAME stuff you need to deal with is letting go of attachment that THIS HAS TO HAPPEN.

I mean, if you give her your phone and she doesn't want to put her number in, so what?

Use this technique I call LOOKING LONGTERM. If you spend a month just approaching women and
asking for their number, will you get better at it?

The obvious answer is yes. So if a girl says no to you, don't get discouraged.

Push through your fear.

Don't concern yourself with what she's going to say or do after you ask for
her number.

I know, it's FREAKING SCARY sometimes. But keep going. Don't give up.

A thing that will help you deal with this for sure is this: Give yourself a stop-loss time. Give yourself
1 week to just approach women and ask for their number.

In that 1 week, don't care about the result of those approaches. Just focus on doing it as many times
possible.

After a week, I promise you that you will make more progress than if you spend a year reading about
it on the forums.

Good luck!
