Here is some background info on me: I'm 19, and pretty much have been sheltered my whole life. I have never had a girlfriend, and have only fooled around with one girl. I would of had sex with her, and i really wanted to, but a part of me was so insecure about pleasing her, that I could not go through with it. I'm a 7 on looks, and probably a 7 as well for my physique.
Note: I'm sorry if I don't have all the technical terms down, i'm just starting out
My philosophy on picking up girls: I like analyzing the situation first, always knowing each outcome for every action that has been made or could of been made. It is like a chess game for me, and I like to think 3 steps ahead.
My target: A 7.5-8 barista working inside the local library. She is a skater chic who wants to be a nurse.
My routine: Start off with an opinion opener about good drinks. She then suggests it and I order something else. From there on, well you'll see what happens
HB8: Hi, how can I help you?
Bravo: Hi, i'm looking for a drink that will keep me awake, because i'm studying all night, and one that tastes good. Do you have any suggestions?
HB8: Fluff about vanilla and caramel, how they compliment each other well.
Bravo: Hmmm...well in that case i'll get a small iced mocha please.
HB8: (laughs) Ok, are you sure you don't a vanilla/caramel drink instead?
Bravo: You know what, i'll go ahead with the vanilla/caramel thing.
HB8: Ok, if you don't like it, I can make you another one.
Bravo: I'll hold you to it.
HB8 makes the drink and hands it to me
Bravo: Wow....I hope you don't do this for a living.
HB8: (Just looks at me funny, with a hint of a smile)
HB8: I'll make you your Iced mocha
Bravo: Ok then, no pressure or anything, but I think you should know that the possibility of me coming here again rests on this next drink. Better make it good.
HB8: (laughs) ok
She makes the drink and hands it to me.
Bravo: (takes sip) Ahh, thats better. So what are you a career barista?
HB8: (Smiles) No, i'm just doing this for the summer.
Bravo: Ahh ok, so once you get out of here what do you want to be...and don't say Princess.
HB8: (Laughs) Well, I'm going to nursing school.
Bravo: Ahh my mom is a nurse.
For some reason I just stopped talking, and there was silence for 3 seconds.
HB8: Yeah, it's going to be tough.
Ok end of convo because the coffee stand started to get really busy. I thanked her for the drink then went inside to start studying.
So i'm sitting there supposed to be studying for my test the next day, but all I can think about is how horrible it ended. So, I started formulating a plan.
I decided to back there about 30 mins before closing (so customers wouldn't bother us) and do the Spells opener.
So I went, sadly enough I stood there like an idiot just looking around the place and just leaving (I was going to go "Hey do you guys sell any apples here? No? Thats a shame. Hey since you're here I need your opinion on something")
Oh and I said "Have a good night Barista" !!!!! What was I thinking.... lol
So now i'm back at home getting mad at myself because i formulated a plan, and it did not go the way I wanted it to.
So being persistant, I decided to make another plan lol.
So here is the grandmaster plan I concocted that i believed would be fail proof, but again I was disappointed.
THE NEXT DAY
Bravo: Hey I need something that will keep me awake, and that tastes good. (I put an emphasis on tasting well and added a smile)
HB8: Well um, I'm not really sure.
I was completely out of sync now. I was not expecting that answer at all. I started thinking if she didn't remember me or if she was honest.
Bravo: Well what do you suggest? I heard Chai was pretty good.
Some info on the Chai thing: Yesterday she also suggested Chai because that was her favorite drink. She then proceeded to talk about Chai, and even made me sniff the Chai powder.
So she makes the Chai thing and during this process I say
Bravo: I hope this is better than your Vanilla Caramel disaster.
HB8: (laughs) Vanilla Caramel is the best. You're the only person I know that doesn't like it. I love that drink.
Bravo: Well then, you must not have any tastebuds.
HB8: (laughs again) I think you just don't like Caramel.
She gives me the drink.
Bravo: What the? It looks just like that Vanilla crap.
HB8: (laughs)
Bravo: Well, at least it tastes better.
HB8: (laughs) That will be 3.77
Ok now this is the point where I pretend to act like I forgot my wallet in my car. This was part of my routine.
Bravo: Oh crap, I must of forgotten my wallet in my car. I'll go get it. Sorry about this.
HB8: Thats ok.
I turn around.
Bravo: You know what, I have a better idea. We are going to play a game because you're bored, and I don't want to walk all the way to my car.
HB8: (She gives me this nervous look, but has a wide smile on her face) Hmm...
Bravo: If I win the game, then I get this Chai Tea for free. If you win, then i'll walk all the way to my car to get my wallet, and walk all the way back and pay for this drink.
HB8: (Still smiling very wide, but still nervous) What's the game?
Bravo: I'm going to to ask you 5 questions, and you need to answer them.
HB8: (Smiles) Oh Gosh...
Bravo: Now you see if I expected you to get the questions right, then it really wouldn't be fair would it? Because I could ask about anything.
HB8: (Smiles and Nods)
Bravo: So to make it fair, you need to get the questions wrong. All you need to do is answer all of them wrong and you win. Pretty simple huh? Even for you.
HB8: (Laughs)
Bravo: Here we will do a test question. What planet are we on?
HB8: Mars
Bravo: Good. You have the game down. Now lets play. Do we have a deal?
HB8: Can I just give you it for free, so I don't have to play?
BOOM. Everything just went wrong...
Not knowing what to say next
Bravo: Ok if you really don't want to play... Thx for the tea.
And I leave....
Everything was going perfect the way I planned it, then one response just killed the whole routine. Her face lit up when I spoke about the game, and I believed that everything was falling into place. I thought she was into it.
I also had more stuff planned after that, but I won't post that because none of it happened.
So what did I do wrong guys?
In retrospect, I have 3 possible explanations that I have come up with.
1: It was near closing time, and she still needed to clean up the place. So she wanted to get rid of me to finish her job.
2: I negged her way too much. Maybe she didn't really respond well with the insults, but still had to smile because I was a customer. Oh and I counted my negs on her (some of them aren't posted here)
Day 1: 5 negs
Day 2: 4 negs
3: She just wasn't interested, and was just being a hired gun.
So my main 2 questions for you experts
1: What did I do wrong/ How should I have done it
2: Should I still go after her? And how?
Oh and for my first attempt at this pua thing, how did i do?
