Ok, just wondering if anyone had tips on how to get anything high-value related into the interaction, early on? As easy and natural as possible please!

My problem is I've found with 99% of the DHV stuff I've seen it comes off really canned and telling a long winded story IMHO is totally boring and not fun. I'm down with the whole Mehow 'value-velocity' concept, which I totally agree with.

-- For example (paraphrasing here), I've told girls they remind me of my dog who is cute but always getting in trouble. I then describe how I saved him from something the other day (protector of loved ones) --

This whole DHV lasts about 20 seconds and is very flexible on where in the interaction you can use it.

I've also found a very abbreviated version of the ring finger routine can be handy, trying to guess girl's personalities early in the interaction, referencing a hot, but new age ex-gf (DHV) quirky who taught me the technique. This one is obviously untrue, but I don't mind some small untruths (so long as they're not too big).

Hoping anyone might be able to advise? Looking for non-cheesy, subtle stuff ideally. Ideas welcome!
