Let me start by saying i'm 16 years old I am slightly below average looking (I wouldn't say ugly) I am about 5'7 and 1/2.
I got into the game a few months ago I started by watching a bunch of RSD videos (Tyler and Julien) and I also have been reading a lot of the stuff Mystery came up with (like routines and negs). But I feel I don't know which direction to go or what to do/learn. Let me describe a few of my sets:
1. The best set I ever had. My buddies and I were driving around and we saw a girl (an
on the track stretching (it was like 10 pm) so I told them to stop and let me out. I went up to her and held up my hand for a high five (I did it in a fun joking sorta way) she went for it and I took her hand and put it around me. She laughed and I talked to her for a few minutes, I did not use any routines or anything. Eventually I went for the number close and even though she told me she had a boyfriend, she gave it to me. I did not follow up because she was in college and I am in high school but it was still a good learning experience. I feel like the set went very well because I was in state during the interaction, I also employed stuff I learned from Owen Cook and Julien Blanc like Laser eye contact and good body language.
2. The second best set, I was at this ice cream place and my buddy told me to game some girls so I went to three girls sitting at a table and I used the "Who lies more" opener and then I talked to them about stuff that I loved like music I had no filters. Eventually I got all their numbers and I was hugging them and took some pictures with them. Only problem was they were 6's max.
3. I saw a girl I knew from school with her friend at the park last summer, I ran game did a bullshit palm reading routine and a shitload of Kino escalation. I scored her number and she invited me to hang out a week later (I blew that sky high) it wasn't a date btw.
Aside from those 3 I have had a TON of sets where I go up to the girl or girls and start talking to them and the following happens
1. They talk to me for a minute but when I try to make it go somewhere they just look at me weird and are like "I don't think so"
2. It is just weird and ugly the entire time and they just want me to go away
It always just feels weird talking to them I can never hook a set it always just dies down and becomes strange like they want me to go away. I never even get the chance to build attraction it's like it is out of the question.
Should I cut my hair? I love having long hair because it is badass but it looks REALLY bad. Look up Dee Snider but imagine that but brown and uglier. I know looks are not that important but should I cut it?
What should I learn?
What should I practice?
Please help
