this is my first non-mystery-method game. It was really late like 12:30; I was studying in the study lounge, high on Adderall, by myself. Then a HB9 I have seen before walks in with her computer, totally caught me off guard, I wasn’t in the mood of pick up at all. There were 3 other empty tables, each has power outlet nearby but kinda hard to find. She walked around and decided to sit with me. The whole time, I did not look up, I feel she was disappointed. No one talked for another 15 min. im getting nervous and tense, i thought i should open, and i thought this is not a social gathering place, so why don't i use direct opening. so I said:

Me: feels so weird that we are the only ppl here and we are not talking, just feels so tense.
HB: haha, I know.
Me: what are you studying?
HB: chem, but I was on facebook the last 20 min.
Me: haha, that’s pretty bad
HB: seriously though, you shocked me out of this, otherwise I would still be on facebook.
Me: …
Me: I’m doing econ, I have midterm on wed, and I’m so bad at it, so I took a pill and been sitting here the whole day.
HB: wow, I wish I could concentrate better.
Me: ……
Me: let me tell you a joke, I just heard it today, (then I told the joke with not so good delivery, I was a little nervous)
HB: it’s okay, not that good
Me: you tell me one then
HB: I don’t have one
Me: wow you are so boring (smiling as I said it)
HB: ……
(Silence for 10 min. then some guy walked in telling us the place is going to close very soon)
HB: wow
Me: when do they normally close?
HB: we are supposed to have another 30 min
Me: ……
Me: its gonna be a long night (as we were both packing our stuff)
HB: I know, (smiling) I took some caffeine pills too, so I ll stay up.
Me: I know some ADD kid, so I get Adderall from him
HB: I don’t touch that bad stuff
Me: I think I’m a little ADD, coz I can’t concentrate well; I would be on facebook for like … 2 hours (smiling)
HB: well I guess my 20 min wasn’t so bad (as she walks out of the door smiling)

I kinda feel like there is not enough negs, other than that, I don’t know what else I could have done. There is not enough attraction for sure.
I ll see her around for sure, should I go up to her and say “hey, you are that girl I met in the studying lounge with no jokes.” Or should I do something else? I saw her quite a couple times at the gym, should I say something next time?

add her on facebook(first find out her name)
find out where shes on party at the weekend.
say something like thats cool, I wanted to go there too.
when you meet her again, ask her what she doing when she not studying like hobbies....
use DHV make her jealous with talking to her friend etc...

and dont talk about the joke thing!

DO talk about the joke thing. You had some (at least a little bit) of attraction, and "the joke thing" will make her remember that.
Hook up with her again, your line is OK, chat a little then isolate (coffee after gym, or juice after studies to calm down).

Also, this time, escalate and get your energy up a little bit. You can make something of it, I'm sure.

Good luck!

Carpe Diem.
