I've always had problems with getting pass the meeting stage. I only know how to build comfort if I've known the person for a long time. However, i do not have "a long time" to build comfort with girls that i just meet.

what are you ideas on how i can build comfort? I feel like i understand neg, push pull, fluff, DHV... but what's the key behind the basic comfort building conversations? Say you meet a girl in class and open her with a neg. What's the correct step?

Maybe i'm just so clueless in this department because I'm not pulling off negs, push/pull, off well enough?

thanks!
