Although I did horrible I did learn some thing from it.
OK on to the report. I am in high school. I've decided to practice my game at lunch. Ok, so theres a HB 9 that I sorta know from last year. She some times waves at me in the hallway. I noticed her standing in the line about 60 feet away from mine. She was wearing bright green clothes and her eyes had the same color around them eyelid and a little above it. She stood out. Well I was in line i tried to prove alpha male energy. My first mistake was looking away when I thought they were looking at me. I got my lunch sat down ate. Got up and spotted her in a 4 set at a table. I walk over by were they are sitting. I start to feel scared and approach anzity what if she is mean what if i screw up. I see some of my friends and go over by them, yes I know wussed out. I talk to my friends a while. By then I have reminded my self that it doesn't matter if she ses no because there are millions of other HB out there. I allready have my opener. How was your lunch, pause mine was crappy there was a strand of hair in it. I sit down and say i can only stay a second. They already had there bitch shields up. Me: I noticed your crazy woardrobe from the other side of the lunch room. You must like bright colors. HB9: No, i like dark colors, rolls eyes. First shit test. Me fucking up big time: Sorry i won't point out the obviose again. I try to recover by saying o you got a new hair cut its horrable i don't like it. HB 9 and HB5 say your a dick second shit test. I wuss out and leave.
Alright dude, I'll try to break it down. Good job trying to be alpha, and you already know your mistake of breaking eye contact, so I won't waste your time with that.
When approaching it's best not to make it look like you PLANNED to go and talk to her -- you don't want to make her feel special yet. So as you're walking by her table do a double-take -- you're walking by, you stop as if you JUST decided to talk to them and sit down next to one of the obstacles. Your opener wasn't bad at all, actually. It just depends on how you pulled it off. Personally I would've transformed mine into an opinion opener: "Hey guys, how's your lunch? Mine had a HAIR in it. I'm kinda pissed -- I'm eating, talking to my friends, whatever, and suddenly I see this huge-ass piece of hair sitting on top of my spaghetti. Should I take it back or not?"
Get their opinions or whatever and 3/4 of the way through when your target is talking interrupt her with a neg. "Wow, you must like bright colors. You goin' hunting?" You completely failed her shit test from the first word: "sorry." You never apologize to an HB.
Instead after her response just throw her off with a "wow, I was just messing around -- is she always like this? how do you roll with her?" and go into into another dhv story or whatever.
The other mistake was that you failed her shit test and then you actually paid MORE attention to her and threw another neg (which you also failed.)
However, regardless of all of this, good job. You made the approach and you're learning from it, which is a lot more than most AFCs are able to do.
See you around dude.
