Admittedly, my game is weak. I figured sarging online would be a good option to start out with. It would help me figure out what lines get good responses and help build my confidence and self esteem before I try at a bar or club. I was POF last night and I'll post the conversation on the board. The girl is a 19 year old HB8-9 and the thing I chose to comment on was the fact about she's a gamer.

Me: 19, attractive, and likes to game! Why aren't there more of you around? (line I picked up from forum so thanks whomever posted it) What games do you like?

HB: Haha bullshit, fluff, list of games (only one in common)

Me: Nice, I like (1 game in common and one other to keep it brief) do you have a gamertag?

HB: yes! I'll give it to you when I get my Xbox back next week.

Me: Get your Xbox back? What are you on restriction?

HB: haha. Funny. No my ex pawned my Xbox.

Me: alright well I'm tks wookie, but you can call me Brian.


haven't heard back so I'm just curious if I could get some tips. I seem to be able to go strong for about 4-6 messages but I then say some stupid shit and blow it. So advice would be grateful.

She actually just messaged me back. So I guess I didn't blow this, but now I'm over thinking everything and need to hold off on replying til I get my head straight

There is nothing going on in the conversation. Just fluff talk. You're taking it too slow mate. It's ideal to number close or date close within the first 4-5 messages.

Second, you should start with daygame first instead of online game. The skill set and confidence you gain from daygame will transit well into your online game. Not the other way around. Thinking using online game to improve your daygame is wrong, it doesn't.

1. It doesn't help your approach anxiety since online has none. You won't learn to deal with it.
2. It doesn't' help you to be better at talking to women. Texting and messaging give you a lot of time to think about a response while real time conversation does not.
3. It doesn't help you to improve your body languages.

I agree it easy to just start with online but it's a waste of time. It should only be used on the side to increases your chance to meet women. Don't depend entirely on it.

I agree with the too slow thing. I think you did well, especially with the "restriction sentence" i really liked that one. But you stayed to long on this gaming thing. And prob. another problem is that i gues 60% of all guys pick up her gaming hobby to text her. Maybe you could have negged her what a beautiful little nerd she is and how you love little, fat chicks with pimples etc

From now on i would drop the gaming chat and start with some extraordinary shit and never mention her looks. If she answers go some small talk about interesting stuff (not where are you from, what sports you do) and then go like "hm i think i have a thing for sweet little nerds, im going for [something interesting] on monday, join me.

She probably started gaming just for her ex boyfriend i guess and that will always be "his" connection with her. Thats why you should just make fun of it but dont use it to connect with her.

Keep us up to date

Cheers

I like the brutal honesty. All my friends are in serious relationships and have been for quite some time (I just got out of a 3 year one myself.) like me they don't really know how to successfully hit on random chicks anymore. Ido try and go out but its usually solo which completely sucks cause I am not at a confident lvl yet. But I will try more to work on my day game. I have been reading a lot of the other forums and trying to retain all the information, I just need to work at putting it into practice.

As far as this chick goes though I tried for the game angle cause it would move it off pof and we could have actual voice conversations which I figured would be a step in the right direction. I agree about being too slow. I've tried to number close quickly a few times with no success. So basically I don't know what the f I'm doing and that's why I'm asking for tips. I have had some pretty solid openers but my game sucks.

I appreciate you both for taking the time to respond. If you have any other advice don't hold back.
