Went out with Art tonight. Met at a pub, discussed some tactics. Pub was filled with sets but I was getting pretty bad approach anxiety. My main goal of tonight was to finally start approaching and not necessarily get any closes or attraction.

So we head over to the union and I make my first approach of the night with 2 attractive girls at the bar. Just give them the hows ur night going chat etc. as a warm up had no other intention but to give a bit of chit chat.

Next Art and I head over to the seats, for a bit of chat etc. Art approaches a 5 set and uses an opinon opener. He gets quite a good response. Soon enough the same group of people 4 girls and 1 guy come and sit opposite us. All 4 are doable so get the usual formalities out of the way. I move onto chat about studying foot modelling at uni etc. then bust on one for being a cheap skate and buying a £1 drink. Art pulls a sly one and gets in amongst their group. Great move. Soon enough we find out 1 of them is taken and is with the guy. Must admit though the dude was a bit of a stinker to look at and his girlfriend was giving me the eye but they were together for 2 years so decided to call a halt to the eye fucking. Some girls eh!?

Anyway there is a bit of a bitch amongst the group but Art gives her some chat and seems to be making good progress when they decide to up and leave to refill their drinks. I reckon he could have made some sort of close with that one.

Ok so back to Art and I on our lonsesome. I spot a 2 set. Both a bit troll like but tonight is about approaching so I think just go in there and do it.
Rock up to them, stutter a wee bit and give them the eye. They look a bit creeped out at first then I ask for a seat chode like and sit down. Sure enough these trolls don't get much action so are willing to hear a beefcake out. Once I am down and relaxed I give the better of the two some good chat about how her course won't pay enough to support me and my thong collection etc. etc. Art comes up and joins me and takes care of the real stinkpot for me. Hang around for 10-15 mins should have probably got a number close on the one I was chatting to but never mind. Tonight is just about approaching.

Art has to put his jacket in so we head upstairs and whilst he is doing that I approach a 2 set sitting down inhaling some chips and cheese. One has a fake moustache on so I bust on her how I am totally into Burt Reynlods lookalikes and we should get married etc. Neither are receptive, think they are a bit older and wiser. Manage to at least chat with them for a bit and got a few laughs.

Time out with Art to discuss night so far, tactics etc.

We decide to head downstairs to the main bit. On the way art approaches a 4 set. All pretty good looking. Downstairs is filled to the brim. So many girls but are all already talking to guys and what not. Not quite sure how to approach a mixed set yet. So we have a wander and go on the dancefloor for a bit. Art approaches a mixed set, guy and girl. As I am watching on a drunk girl grabs my hand and asks me my name etc. She is pretty smashed and not great to look at but give her some lip action for banter and take her number for another time.

Art heads outside for a smoke so I am left on my lonesome. Approach a 4 set beside the dancefloor. They are so low energy it almost brought me to tears. I rocked up, sarcastically saying this must be where the partys at. Try to chat to all of them and they are not receptive at all. Defintely the worst set of the night, nothing could perk them up. They were just having one of those nights where they would have been better staying in watching friends box sets and going over how much they hate men. Their loss.


I actually lose art at this point and never see him for the rest of the night. Two choices, go home chode like or ride it out and see how it goes. I go with riding it out. There are some tunes on that I love so go on dancefloor solo. I am a pretty decent mover so even though I was on my own girls still came around me. I was too much of a pussy to make a move even though a few bumped their asses back into my crotch. All in due course.

Rubbish tunes come on so I vacate the dancefloor and head off to get a water. Have another wander round eyeing up the talent. Most are already taken, smashed at this point. I see some real poor looking lads pulling hotties and it just shows that looks mean jack shit.

It is about 2am at this point so I decide to go get some food and head home. Main goal of approaching achieved.

So proud of myself tonight. Was totally sober and approached many sets. Fair enough I didn't get much in the way of attraction or closes but its all progress and I did today what I have failed to even attempt before. Can't wait for the journey ahead.
