i'm pretty much a newbie to pua, but when it comes to talking to girls i can make some pretty basic small talk before easily getting their number and becoming friends with them on Facebook. i'm just really having trouble creating that initial attraction that will last (at least for a little while) with a girl i like/that i think is cute/hot unless she is already attracted to me or we have already known each other for a little while. i can make small talk like "hey whats up" "whats ur name" "hows it going/how's ur day going " or a dumb comment about something currently happening at the moment or tell a silly story or joke, but otherwise i am at a loss as of what to say and sometimes have some trouble flirting (not including pickup lines). i'm also worried that if i just make boring small talk with a girl, that will simply put me right in the friend zone which is not where i wanna be. anyways even the times i do manage to get through all this i cannot get things to the next level, if you know what i mean.... any tips on what i could say or do or whether i should try a different approach if i want to get a girl faster? any tips for maybe some rapid escalation, like in 1 or 2 days? btw i'm a sophomore in high school, so preferably advice pertaining to H.S. (that i could use in school). also, there are very few girls in my school so its really hard to be that one guy who comes out on top when there are like 5 to 10 other guys hitting on one girl.
btw in this thread i'm asking for advice pertaining to talking to them in person initially before texting/fb messaging them. please help! also some tips on basic flirting? (aside from teasing, and sexual jokes and stuff like your pretty, etc... which i already have covered). no b.s. and don't tell me to just talk about whatever (because i sometimes legitimately have nothing at all to talk about).
