Right i was in the canteen at my college the other day and i was sat with my best mate (Female) and 2 of her HB mates. I was gaming this HB9 like one of the hottest girls in our college just doing stuff like the cube and that then i had to do it to every friggin girl wich started to get annoyin.
Then i started to show disintrest to the HB by playing with some nail varnish chatting to the other people blah blah.
So the HB goes to me "paint my nails babe" (Took that as a IOI but wasnt to sure :/ was it a IOI??)so i took her hand (kino) and started to paint her thumb she sqeezed my hand (ioi) and i started chattin to her again.
Then my best mate just whent "err hes shit at that here let me do it" then took her hand. Now if this was a lad i could of took that as a cock block dis armed him then gone back to gaming but because shes a F i had no idea what to do so i just started talking to the HB next to me.

The only thing i want to know is:
What would you have done to get the attention back onto yourself if you where in the same situation?
AND
How would you make sure your mate doesnt do anything like this again??

I was thinking of telling her i was trying to get her friend but then she would become to involved and start trying to set us up and ultimatly blow it like she has done before. And also i dont whant her knowing about my PUA skills as i have previously gamed her.
If you have any suggestions then i would love to hear them [/b]

Looks like a case of jealousy to me. But you don't have to disarm her, just refuse and be a man say you was to paint her nails, and then if you do a good job say see I can paint nails, if you fail, give to her and say yeah I suck, you can have it. Use cocky funny, not to be a jerk. That way you DHV both the girls.

In my opinion by chickening out, you showed the HB you were not willing to stand up for her! Of course this all really depends on the mood of the situation.

Once you think you get the HB to the point comfort, etc. Announce to the group that you two like each other and if the others are ok with that. That prevent the other from getting in the way and awkward situatiosn from developing.

But that just how I would handle the situation.

asking you to cold read everyone - use this as your weapon. not only does she have interest you THE WHOLE GROUP DOES. your the centre of social attention - but dont read anyone else - keep them wanting more. your social proof sorted .
ok this is where you screwed up. YES paint my nails babe is a kino escalation invatation (ioi) HOWEVER - do you know ANYTHING about painting girls nails (not saying you dont - just that the majority of males just dont have a clue)? you should have of seen this problem and instead of jumping through her hoop - reversed the question.
'' no - ill let u paint mine now - and ill paint yours later''
this way you could have chosen a tome to do it when her friends arnt around to disturb. - and as you might not be able to paint nails just had some laughs and painted smiley faces to her nails.
and how do you make sure this doesnt happen again??? dont get yourself in a position where you have no skills.

I would have handled it much differently. After the Cube (which I dont personally use) when all of the other girls wanted you to do their readings I would have used that as a chance to build value. "Do I look like a monkey?", Or "Demand has risen, So has the price, 10 bucks per reading" (or drinks if youre actually trying to get something out of it) As far as the nails go FUCK NO, unless youre planning drawing penises on them dont play that game. I would have grabbed her by the hand, pulled it up to my face, inspected closely and busted her balls "ew, I cant work with this mess." All smiles of course. then put her hand right into your friends and tell her to do it. problem defused. Its kinda tough to think on your feet like that but just get it into you mind that you dont HAVE to do anything then itll come to you.
