Ok, this will be my first field report.
I went to a small cocktail bar with my old wingman. He now has a relationship, but now and then he helps out.
We went into the bar, crossing a first group of mixed crowd. Age: 22-25, about 10 people. I immediately noticed a redhead. I didn't show any particular attention. We sat down for couple of cocktails, I was just chatting to my friend. After 15 min he went to the toilet to check out the rest of the bar, but did not find any other challenges. He went back to me, and we took a quick peek to the guys surrounding the redhead. These guys were really trying hard to impress her, so we knew odds were good. Next step was to find a way to get her away from her fanboys. When she passed by (I know, I was lucky), I just said to her that I was discussing with my friend whether her friends were studying at that particular faculty of university. She told me that I was right, and I asked her what she's studying. Chitchat about her courses, asked her name, cracked some jokes. Next move was to find something that was more emotional to her. She loves to travel. I found out why: when she was 18, she took her first world tour. I listened to her emotional experiences in other foreign cultures, added some of my experiences. After 10-15 min of talking, her fanboys tried to intervene. I let them, knowing she would say goodbye. I chatted with some other people, and after 2 hours she came back to me to say goodbye. I asked her number and she immediately gave it to me. I asked some quick questions regarding her background and we our ways seperated into the night.
I tried to call her 3 days later, but she didn't pick up the phone. Yesterday I sent her a message to have a drink. Fingers crossed. Possible excuse: she's a translator, they always go abroad during holidays to have field experiece. I hope that's the reason.
