This report follows on from one of my earlier posts: fr12-tight-game-k-close-vt72640.html

=======================================================
Venue: Picadilly Area, London
Date: 10 Aug, 2010
DAY 2 - Build towards f-close
=======================================================

I had discussed with some friends the best strategy for day 2's several times and was using a simple 3 venue date that has lots of benefits.

1. You're always on the move - if the mood changes or you run out of things to talk about you bounce to a new location with new topics and activities/distractions.
2. It time compresses the date to give the target a feeling of multiple dates and 'getting to know you' time.
3. It provides you with clear structure to what you want to achieve in each location

First location (attraction, comfort) I met BHB off the tube and immediately took her back in because it was raining. I took her to Trucadero, a huge video game centre with everything from bumper cars to poker machines in it. She had told me on our first meeting that she loved Air Hockey so I took her straight to the tables (I had arrived early and scoped out the best/fastest ways to them and out of the venue - I avoid leaving anything to chance), where we played a few games. I beat her and made an OTT display of winning.
This is about building attraction (you always loose some between dates - especially when things moved fast on the first encounter aka buyer's remorse) but only a little to top up. The rest of the date is about comfort and sexualising.

Second location (Comfort/ Kino) is a american style diner that does 'hard shakes' (milkshakes with alcohol in them). We get lost on the way there and she directs us part of the way. Initially I start to panic but know I need to reclaim my masculinity, so once I see a place i recognise and get my bearings I tell her "That's it, I know where we are now, I'll get us straight there now". It's raining so I use this and the one umbrella we have to draw her in and build kino with my arm around her.

In the venue we order and I keep my hands to myself, except for a light touch every now and then as part of emphasising my points. The conversation is all about growing up and I tell her about how milkshakes and diners remind me of my grandparents and spending time with them. During this BHB puts her hand on my leg and we hold hands a little.

Third location (Kino escalate) is a bar called Jewel, right next to the tube station from where we started. We grab some beers and I lead her by the hand to a booth in a corner where we talk about funny the things that happened to us at work. We're touching at everypoint but I've still been leaning back slightly. Eventually I just shut up and wait with ahalf smile looking into her eyes. She smiles back and holds eye contact. *kiss*

After making out and enjoying the rest of our drinks I take her back to the tube and kiss her good bye. I tell her to text me when she's back to let me know she got home safely.

Please note that on TonyT's advice I did not go for an f-close because I had tried on the first encounter. If I had tried it on here she would of assumed that this was all I was after and that would have been the end of it. I had to do the opposite of what she might expect. Posts on the next date and the Lay will be posted up in a few days.

Any comments are welcome. If you think I could have changed the interaction I'd like to know how.[/b]
