It's been a while since I've posted on this. Went out day gaming by myself for the first time in new york in ages. Not too bad, 5 approaches and 2 number closes.
It was the first time I used direct game as well and found that this is by far the best direct way to open for me and probably for others too:
Me: Hi (Pause for 3 seconds no matter what as if expecting a hi back with flirtacious smile then she will stop and usually they smile back)
Her: Hi
Me: I am so lost it's ridiculous, how do I get to xxx
Her: Well go this way blah blah
Me (either wait till she finishes or cut her off): Holy crap didn't realize you were so pretty/had such a cool style, I have to meet you, I'm xxxx (hold out hand expectantly)
Opens so much better than generic ''Hi, I saw you and thought you were stunning, hi, I'm xxx
Anyways, back to topic, I number closed a hired gun, and she literally blushed so much when I direct opened her and I could tell that the attraction there. Tried to instant date her but she was meeting freinds. I then number closed her and texted her 4 hours later saying:
Me: Pretty cool seeing you xxx. (then an in joke between us)
Her (2 mins later): Thanks for saying im pretty, you too

X
Me(3-4mins later): I need you to do me a favour
Her: No reply
I thought this would spark her interest and she would say:what
and I would say: I've got exams next week so try not to cry until our next encounter
If there is one thing that is shit it's my text game. I only get day 2s by calling
What would you have done in this situation/ where did I go wrong?
