I was introduced to a HB8 stripper by a female wing. # closed and played it cool the last 2 weeks. All via text: Invited her to a party day of and she said she had plans but maybe 'next week'. Next week invited her to dinner day of and she said she had plans but that she'd see me at female wing's birthday party.

At the birthday party, HB8 was sitting on a couch the whole time talking to a guy I don't know. She had her legs crossed away from him but would not make eye contact with me and I didn't want to open from a forward standing position. Made me think maybe her text about seeing me there was just a token, so I didn't open at all. I possibly could have sat down next to her, but it would have been a difficult open if the guy she was talking to was an AMOG.

What should I have done here? I left the party, haven't texted or called her. Thanks!

I found this in an acronym list. This seems to be what was happening, but I am just feeling like an AFC!

Anti Approach Invitation. Unconscious actions by an HB to do everything to avoid your specific attention. Walking away from you, avoiding EC, creating a cockblock scenario, etc. Don't waste your time on chicks giving anti-AI to you unless you really like a challenge or spending all your time in TA mode.

What you do is find the hottest girl (who's single or who's BF is not there) at the part and game her. You either get new girl or the old girl come back to you.

If the hottest girl at the party already has BF and he's not arround just open with "I really want to get a present for my new GF and she looks just like you, but a little taller. You look great in that **** where did you get it for" then go into something about best presents etc.
You are just trying to make the otherone want you

yeah good call on all of that. open other sets or establish a pivot.

my wings/friends all were giving me shit like i should have gone in but i was like no way.
