Well sort of, but you will actually have to wait for that part. This novel does include more than a dozen approaches with a great close rate though
Started as normal, woke up and did some deadlifting and pressing while I ate breakfast. Was wondering how I could maintain my momentum of 15 approaches last week without relapsing into anxiety. Next I went downtown to do some studying for a professional practice exam (law).
My first approach was mentally tough. An HB9 had walked in and started using a computer between two other people. I chose to hesitate my approach hoping one of her neighbours would leave. As luck would have it one did and I went in direct. She was busy preparing a cover letter and not too interested in conversation, eventually stating she had a boyfriend if that mattered at all regarding why I was there. I ejected soon after and steeped about all the great responses to that line. Next time.
A girl I had checked out earlier but had been unable to approach logistically returned with a friend. I decided to leave my bag behind (no valuables and didn't want to lose that seat) and chase them down. As I was leaving, I was being distracted by some obnoxious guy talking on his phone, but I was in approach mode and not thinking about what he was discussing. I opened the friend of the target dismayed to realize the friend was a 9 vs the target a 7.5 Too late to switch tacks with my direct approach, I continued on. Honestly it was weak but they were heading to a coffee shop to use the wifi and they invited me so I joined them. I hung around like a douche and then closed them with a pair of business cards I had printed for a private party I am having this weekend. If they show, I will have a chance to switch targets.
Returning to my vantage point, I realized two things. An HB8.5 had sat at the same computer the last one left, again with two neighbours. More importantly, I realized obnoxious guy had been talking on the phone with somebody about a warrant issued for his arrest! Unfortunately, he was no longer to be seen.
I direct approached HBcomputer2 as soon as a neighbour left, and she was very keen to introduce herself. I teased her weakly, and she offered her facebook to me unsolicited since she was in a hurry to return to work. I pressed for her phone, which was broken. As she entered her name into my Facebook I asked her how long she had been there and whether she had heard what obnoxious guy was talking about, but she hadn't.
Returning to my vantage point, who is outside but obnoxious guy?! I call the cops, stating what I had heard him speaking about, and ask them whether they would be interested in meeting him. Unprofessionally, she ask's whether he is a particular race and sex, instead of asking his race and sex. Next she asks whether he has a particular build, instead of asking his build. I realize they must really want this guy, they know who I am talking about before I begin to describe him. I hang up and wait in anticipation. One, two, three, four minutes. Come on, this is a big city, there are cops everywhere what is taking so long? I check my phone to see when the call ended. Five minutes, six, seven, eight. Two strangers approach the table and start talking to the guy, I realize one of them has his hand on a gun in the small of his back. Smart, send in the plainsclothes so the guy can't attempt an escape which could get messy in public. He produces ID, and they stand him up. Momentarily a uniformed officer arrives to cuff him. Hilarious. I snapped a couple pics and returned to my book, too excited to study.
I message my best friend, who tells me "that is your pickup for the rest of the day." Of course!
I am soon to realize an honest, congruent, strong but subtle DHV is a powerful thing.
I leave to walk up the street. The weather is perfect - the city is target rich today. I approach another HB8.5 swedish girl, direct. After asking how her day was, she doesn't return the formality. I state my day has been more exciting than expected. Hook. I tell her the story, of course making sure to also subtly drop what I was studying for. No close here but I was feeling pretty good, she had a BF if I remember correctly and I failed to challenge her.
Minutes later, I see an HB8.5 and UG set across the street. I promptly cross the street and open the UG, stating I wanted to meet her friend and asking if I may introduce myself. UG is extremely shy - beyond normal, which occurs to me as slightly weird but I continue. I tell the story, think its going great, until the HB states, "I'm 14." I realize this is probably true based on the UGs look and behaviour and realize my mistake. "Are you serious? I feel like a pedophile now. I thought you were probably 19." I eject politely to some laughs, realizing soon after I should have ID'd her since its possible I was being shit tested.
I'm starting to get quite hungry and begin looking for a new vantage point, a patio in the sun to fill my belly while I continue to sarge. Upon nearing the chosen establishment I see a girl across the street walking her tiny dog. I cross the street swiftly and open direct, and find her extremely cagey before even getting a chance to DHV. Instead of telling her I promise I don't bite, I realize her body language is very congruent to her caginess and she must have a boyfriend, which I state and she confirms. I wish her a nice afternoon.
I return to the patio, and select a beer and hamburger. The beer arrives, and I miss an approach as an HB8 walks into the adjacent clothing store, but another HB8 passes by momentarily. I drop my shit on the table and chase this girl, dressed to the nines in business wear, down - hoping the waitress doesn't think I've dined and dashed a half beer. Opening direct, she asks me how my day was and I DHV. She hooks and we talk a little, and I find she is a paralegal. I begin the closing process, and she states "I am sort of seeing somebody" To which I reply "HBBusiness, you are an attractive girl. You've been seeing somebody since you reached adolescence. What is your phone number?" She complies.
I finish my hamburger, and HBclothing leaves the store. I chase her down, open direct and DHV. She is quite keen, we chat a bit, and I close her no problem. I return to my table and ask for my bill. While waiting, I notice another couple talking nearby. She is leaning away and he appears to be performing. I watch closer as she leans further away. He says something, leans in and touches her hair, which gets her attention back. She ends up leaving without a close, but I have ID'd another PUA. My waitress shows with the bill as I leave saying I need to introduce myself to this guy while she stands there probably thinking "WTF?"
I invite him back to my table as I pay the bill, since I could use a skilled wing occasionally. My best friend is slightly natural but I felt it might be cool to have a stronger wing sometimes. We will see how we get along.
I wander a bit, I am beginning to get tired, but my state of mind is so powerful I cannot return home. I see HBflight-attendant on the other side of the street, probably an 8, walking fast, and it takes me a block of nearly running to catch her. I open direct, DHV subtly, and close without too much difficulty. She did state she planned to bring other flight attendants to the clothing optional beach in two weeks when she returns and we plan to go, but thats cool
Returning to the hotspot, an HB9 passes me. I follow my tried and tested routine and she hooks hard. She is lost looking for a dance studio, and I take her there. I know the place as I have taken lessons there. I find she is from Russia, lived in Prague, and is here for university for four years. I close without any difficulty.
Again, I return the other direction down the hot street. An HB9.5 passes by. I follow my routine and find her quite friendly, although I have to dock her a point for having some acne, which is unfortunate. We talk for a bit and I find she is an actress. I close her, again with plans for the clothing optional beach. She says something to the effect of being there before and says something along the lines of whether I am planning to get naked. I replied with some smart ass remark like if only you were so lucky.
I need a break, and it is 645. I return home briefly to meet a friend to give him a costume for a party this weekend. I return outside to meet another friend at the theatre to see Ted. Ted was absolutely hilarious, especially if you have grown up on family guy like myself.
My friend is the natural I referenced earlier, and we trade stories. He has spent an hour today breaking up with one girl which was a bit of a downer for him, but he had also done well the night before with another girl he has been sarging for 6 weeks.
After the movie, my friend chooses to go home instead of grabbing a drink. Too bad, I was hoping to have some support to hit one of the chic neighbourhoods. I wanted to find a ten. I head toward home, undecided whether to go out alone.
I decide to make a pass through one of the trendy bar / lounge streets in my neighbourhood. I find a 2 set sitting on an outdoor patio, and pass by. I hesitate for a minute, two, then remind myself nothing to lose and go in. I ask if I can interrupt for a moment and then ask the obstacle if I may introduce myself to the HB8.5. She complies and I begin my direct approach. Unfortunately, she doesn't return the formality of asking how my day was, so I don't subtly DHV. We talk briefly about how they know each other, I find she is traveling, but also that she has a BF, to which I reply "That presents a minor inconvenience to us doesn't it HBmontreal?" She agrees, and states probably a long distance relationship is another minor inconvenience also. I reply, "Who said anything about a relationship?" Didn't go far after that point so I politely eject.
