Last night I was out at a party on campus and opened a 3 set. The opener went well, I transitioned with some cold reads, got IOI's, my wing came in, and despite our efforts, the girls were contributing very little to the conversation. After maybe ten mintues or so, despite our good opening and transitioning, I felt little could be done in the attract phase for they weren't even talking to keep us there. shortly after my wing and I just left to sarge other girls.
Now I know that generally not contributing to a conversation is an IOD, and maybe that was the case, but I really felt I read the proper signs that these girls were interested. My wing agreed with me on this, and even thought the material I was coming up with was pretty good stuff. I just felt that maybe these girls were the shy type.
Now some would probably say that if the girls are too shy, then don't even bother putting more effort than necessary to open... but the girls were hot! The truth is many girls are shy, and not gaming them would drastically cut down my options. And I'm willing to bet any mPUA wouldn't just give up on a hot 3 set because they were shy.
Any thoughts or advice would be appreciated.

i have never seen really hot girls that are shy.... just never happend to me! maybe they werent intrested, or you just had bad timming becuase teh girls where in a middle of a important convo.... would be really intrested in any solutions too!

Thanks Impact, truthfully I didn't pick the name for the band though, but I appreciate the response anyways lol.
I feel like the leaving, and making them miss you thing is good advice. And in this particular case I was leading 95 percent of the conversation.
I guess the only problem, and I know once my game gets tight this shouldn't be a problem, but like all hb's at parties there's always competition. Now normally I don't have a problem with AMOGs or AFCs trying to steal my sets for the most part, usually it's easy to out-game them. I guess it just seemed a little different with this set, because of the whole shy thing.
Looking back on it, I probably should have tried approaching them again later. I gave the false time constraint that I had to catch up with a couple of my friends, so when I left I just played it off like that. I figure if I had simply made it look like I lost interest in them for being boring and shy, (in fact I could have even made a neg about it) and left, then came back later, they probably would make more of an attempt to show interest and win me back. Essentially I should have just followed the Mystery Method, punish bad behavior with the IOD (the take-away) and DHV (establish social proof and preselection by talking to other girls) and then come back.
Thanks again for the advice
