My game is generally really good when I'm pre qualified by a girl. Besides some ONS's though almost all of my regular lays come from online game. When working sets I have a consistent tendency of making a blunder comment or assumption that kills the interaction. Although I'm generally very empathic to other people, I either think I'm making a joke or a teasing thread of conversation and it kills it. As an example I almost got blew out from a ONS last weekend (almost a 3 some) when a girl said something flirty about me (I don't remember what, maybe my age), and I laughed and said "oh fuck off" in a very playful tone and smiling. The girls jaw dropped and didn't know how to reply so I stacked asap and was just barely able to turn it around. But as far as I can tell this has been a lifelong issue. I know this is holding me back from a 10 that I want in my life. Any suggestions for self study or areas to work on are welcome.
