My game has improved so much over the last few weeks. What I have learned is that it is not so much about being good with women as it is about being good with people. Listening to what people say and being genuinely interested will help your game big time. Everyone has a story, their truth, and truth is good. So discover other peoples' story and it will help you so much (it did for me).

My sticking point is asking for someone's number, especially if her friends are around? I have become quite good at "disarming the obstacles," or in other words the male friends, otherwise I will get cock blocked in a NY minute. But whenever people are around me, it feels so awkward asking a girl for her number.

Today this girl started talking to me at a bar while I was watching a ball game about bud light lime. We talked for about 20 min, she introduced me to her male and female friends. When I was about to leave, I wanted to ask her for her number by saying something to the effect of, "I really enjoyed our conversation and would like to continue it sometime. How should we go about meeting up?" But her friends would have totally seen right through that line.

What is the best way of asking a girl for her number when her friends are around? Are there any tricks or ways of making the process easier? How to make her friends think that you are innocent and cool?

Any advice is appreciated, and I think this is such an important step in improving your game that it would be helpful for all of us to have a discussion about it.

Cheers!

How about " Hey (taking your phone out) write down your number here, we have to continue this conversation" or "Hey write down your number here, we gotta hang out sometime." My point is, don't ask! And is it really possible to act innocent!? I'm not sure it is and i'm not really sure why you would wanna do that. Just act cool and calm while you ask her, her friends won't mind, it's probably not the first time they've seen a guy ask a girl for his number. It's alright if they know your intentions. Stay true to yourself, you wanna see the girl again, so whats the problem with her friends knowing. And i mean, be friendly with the group, talk with everyone, take charge of the conversation, be the alphamale and their is no way her friends won't like you! Hope I helped!

I just pull my phone out and make everyone standing there put their information in, and if anyone acts bitchy about then I'll say something like "well only cool people are allowed to be on my phone anyways, I guess you aren't as cool as your friends here", which usually stops anyone else from rejecting it.

If you can isolate her obviously ask then, if you cant isolate her try asking your wing to keep the groups attention for a minute so you can chat to her, if its purely her attention you are holding you can ask for it confidently but discretely enough that her friends wont even know.

Hey mate! You already got good tips from the other PUAs, and I want to add mine 'cause I feel it's worth sharing. In some situations, it's all about frame control. Best example I can think of is my last close. The girl actually wanted to introduce me to her friends, but I decided to introduce her to her friends, mine, and random ppl around like this : Hey, I'd like you to meet «random name, changing every time», the mother of my five children. Anyways, I won't explain the whole sarge, but controlling the frame, I made her my fourth wife (saying' she'll have good competition for my heart) and actually asked her number like this, in front of her five girlfriends and my wing, who was keeping them quiet lol : Hey, for our wedding, I need your contact infos (then you just log her num in yo' cool phone!)

So I guess you just need to make it seem like an innocent thing for you, like you do not care about it much, you're just a funny, friendly and insanely attractive man who's comfortable around cute chicks. Bringing a good wingman to keep other dudes and girlfriends away is also a good way, but you also have to be loyal and wing for him when he'll open his set!

Still, this is not to be used if you don't feel comfortable with it OR if it doesn't fit your game style!
