As for the adventure part, I think here is were a lot of wannabe PUAs go wrong. They have nothing more going for them then their little routines and stuff. Ok, it's easier to learn if you use them but you need some depth of character. or she will be bored out of her mind after those first 25 min.
Routines filled with the most interesting and captivating facts will build rapport, with the routine and it's facts... the symptoms. And even the most mundane routines when delivered with passion and emotion will also build rapport... but with you.
Example:
"I was driving down 4th avenue today, it was quite busy and had been raining. Thats when I saw a yellow haired dog, sitting on the side of the road wet and alone... So I pulled over and picked him up. After that I took him to the veternarian to be checked out. I was told he had a broken leg, so they put a cast on him and I took him home. Buddy and I have lived together ever since"
vs.
"Today as I was making my way down a crowded street on my way home, feeling rather frusterated with the traffic and the rain. I saw a dog on the side of the road... The poor thing looked so cold and alone sitting there in the rain... I thought to myself, how I would feel abadoned and afraid with no one to help me. So I pulled over and brought the poor guy into my car so I could get him some help. At the Vet's office I found out he had a broken leg, the poor guy must have been in alot of pain, so I had them fix him up so I could take him home where he could feel warm and safe... Once we arrived he cuddled up to me on the couch lovingly, and gave me a thankful lick on the face. Ever since then buddy has been my loyal companion... We're inseperable. "
The first version may be captivating... but the second one is endearing.
