So I was out tonight in quite a big city. It was amazing, my sarging experience is limited to much smaller venues, so it was definitely helping being in a big club with MUCH more talent around me. I opened a few sets to start off the night and even had some hotties opening me and everything was hunky dory.
Then it hit me like a car crash. I was on the dancefloor with a HB7, I didn't run any verbal game on her, but I was kiss closing. Then she said the dreaded words 'how old are you?'... all the fucking time I get this, it didn't take long for her to cut her losses and scram. I then get opened by a HB8, but she tells me I look 14... I go to the dancefloor again and start working on another HB8 who thinks I'm 16. Pissed off, about an hour later, I go to queue in the toilets and some guy randomly turns round and tells me I don't look a day older than 16 and that I can't have been ID'd properly. When you've got random blokes telling you that, there's no other motive, they're not trying to impress their friends or anything as they're alone, that's when you know that there's a problem ;]
This is a huge burden, especially when in clubs. I have a few witty responses, but when you've got the music blazing and the whole SPAM, it's not really possible to smooth things over as you'll end up repeating yourself 10x until she gives up. I know that my mentality needs to be 'not hide my age or think of it as a negative thing', but it's not my age that's the problem, it's the age that I look. I'm 18, but I'd say I could easily pass as 15-16.
I'm doubtful that there's any quick fix for this one unless I hope that I'll start to look my age in 3 or 4 years time, so I'm throwing this one out there to see if anyone has the skills or experience to fix it ;]
Wow that was painful to read. When i used to go out, i had that going for me, girls thought i was older than i actually am thats why theyd open me, when i said that i was 19 at the time, theyd be like "OMG Hes only 19, oy jessie, hes only 19, omg what are you serious?".
Alrite well heres your solution
I'm 18, but I'd say I could easily pass as 15-16.
Look at the way you dress, look at older mens fashion and get a pivot to help you dress more mature. I don't really mean a suit, just make sure you get your haircut by a male hair dresser, and get something interesting but mature going. Also your voice tone, make sure you don't sound like a kid.
how old are you?
How old do you think i am?
I don't know you look 16! well than you should take me home and tuck me in bed.

Use whatever, funny, cocky, both, but when she asks you a second time, don't hide it, just tell her! if she goes on to neg you and says you look like a kid! well than use a cocky funny thing. If you can't hear her, than isolate her, and go somewhere where you can hear her. If you can't isolate yet, pretend you can't hear her, say "How old is who? how old jew? who told how old? what i can't hear you! alright never mind lets go here for a bit, i can't hear you *prepare to isolate*.
