I'm happening to have trouble gaming at parties. What can you do if you don't know anybody, and was just invited to the party by a friend?

I just came back from a New Year's party and basically left when a lot of females came. The guys were also there, and were all getting good responses from the girls. I felt bad because I didn't know anybody, except my friend. (He was playing beer pong with another friend of mine)

I can't describe the feeling I have. It's New Year's Eve, and I'm at my friends house typing on this computer.

My game is really inconsistent, and the fact that I almost never go to house parties come into big play. I can go to bars and clubs, but this is a case I just couldn't handle yet.

Guys, I'm really invested in the game and I wanna be great in this.

If there's any resolution I have this would be it:

Never be afraid to do anything. No matter how impossible the situation seems.

Hey, i heard all about it. lawls, cuz you tol me in person!

remmebuh tho, you didnt walk out of that party with nothing. look at cha, you gave yourself a solution that would actually work! dont make the same mistake i did.

if theres another party invite me, we'll try to make it ours. shouldn't be too hard i hope.

Why were you at a party where you knew only one person? You need to build a stronger social circle. If you were on a party where you had at least 2-3 good buddies with you it would be much easier to have a great time, and when you have a great time, other people (read girls) notice that and then its much easier to run the game if you are percieved as fun and open person. If you were walking around like a ghost thinking only about sarging and not partying and laughing with others, its obvious you were NOT percieved as a jackpot for the girls. Always make sure thta you are having a great time, sarging and girls comes totally naturaly after that, as a logic step!

Ok, allow me to give you another point of view.
I LOVE those parties! It all works, the only thing that doesn´t work is the false time constraint.
When I arrive at the party I immediately scan the room, who are the cool guys where are the HBs (1 second), I go up to the closest set and ask them if they have seen the host (the one inviting you most likely). They respond, you say oh allright, see you later, go up to the host, shake hands etc etc. From the host, you make you way through the room, introducing yourself to any set (fluff talk make friends) that comes in your way until you reach the cool guys. This creates your new social circle. If you are nice enough you have made some people to hang with and created social proof.

Just sounds like you need to keep practicing your game. Also seems like you need a mentor.

really? I find parties one of the easiest places to game, but some things still get to me. For example, was the crowd there not really like the type of people you like or hang out with? Like did you think the guys were jerks or intimidating? Or was the party just so huge that you didn't know what group to get into? All in all, it just takes practice. Next party you go to, don't worry about gaming but just practice going up to people and saying hello, and starting a conversation. After you get used to introducing yourself and talking to people at parties, than work on gaming the girls there. Good luck

You mentioned beer pong. Great way to interact with the ladies. Get a girl to be your partner and play with her. Neg her while playing and whatnot and use what you have learned. Being on the computer while there is a party pretty much made your social value drop like a bomb. Next time, even if you don't know anybody really, go around and make new acquaintances. People don't bite (except the shit faced guys). Everyone there is there to socialize and have a good time and relax. Just be more interactive with what is available.

I totaly agree with dancingomus, you need to be comfortable in the situation first. You can only focus on so many things at one time, and you are asking to much of yourself right now. You said you never go to these house parties, so of course your game is going to be off. You are trying not only to look comfortable, but be on top of your game as well in a totaly new situation.

Go to a few parties, and alow yourself to HAVE FUN. Do NOT worry about getting girls, or about how you look. Look around, watch how everyone else interacts, get comfortable.

Give yourself high goals, but not impossible. Give yourself a break.

I just went to a party yesterday, and it was pretty positive. I met some new people, and cute looking girls.

Thanks guys for all the advice. I was a whole lot more confident then I was last time.

Great man! Just don´t forget that if you are new to the game then it is no failure to not get the girl. Its like a computergame without a save function, you have to start over in every set the time. Practice the first levels first, even opening and ejecting is a step forwards in the beginning, the rest will come!
