Okay, I recently started using these techniques after years of knowing but not using them. Here is my problem, I am okay with opening a single girl and telling decent dhvs, but all I can think to do is neg over and over in between dhvs. I got a number close today and I made a few mistakes like not being smooth at the end saying nice to meet you, Sally (fake name) instead of something pua like. Also I poked her bicep and said even though you are thin you still got muscles while she was typing in her number. It's tricky for me since I just started utilizing these techniques seriously. I also have problems with kino and don't know how to progress this number close into something more. All I do is neg and tell dhvs. She's my age, what to do?

Edit: I also made her qualify herself through a question. What am I missing?

Negs are usually a bad idea and should be used sparingly, if at all. My philosophy is when you tease a girl, it should at least be somewhat funny. Otherwise you're just kinda being a dick (which I understand some chicks like, but it's not my thing.)
I would focus on trying to make more of a connection, find commonalities and just ya know get to know her.

I understand. How about I got her number, when is the right time text her? How long should I wait and what do I say? My main question is, what do I say when I text her? How should I offer her a date so we can escalate into sex? I met her at a bar, and I am not sure what to say for that to happen.
