Well, guys, I acquired my first taste of any kind of success, yesterday, even if I'm still more of an AFC, than PUA. After a break of several weeks, I yesterday did another sarging attempt, and feeling looser than before, scored my first...well, email. (I know, Iknow, but that's where I'm most comfortable; I don't like texting anyways.)

The girl was a cute 6, and after a direct statement of interest that went well, with delightful ripples of laughter, she went onto laugh about my jokes on Greek tragedy. Emboldened by her laughs, and our common interest, I asked for her email, and got it.

In under five minutes.

No kino.

Well, hardly any. We shook hands, and I held it a mite longer than I needed. I know less kino leads to greater flakage, and I could, and should have escalated, but I wasn't feeling that bold, even with unprecedented success.

I went on sarging, filled my approach quota, and while I didn't have any other success that day, it still felt pretty good.

Later that day, I went to the gym, and was greeted at the desk by a blond I've been flirting with, about Easter weekend, and the like. As I proceeded on to the men's locker, I encountered a brunette who'd been showing volunteer interest the day before, and decided to side with momentum, and approach.

SHe responded well enough, but I asked for her number too quick, but agreed to look at my blog, which she agreed to write down, though I ended up helping her, given she couldn't spell it right. Not what I wanted, but it wasn't exactly a failure, either.

Thing is, the blond was withing eyeshot of us, and almost certainly witnessed me gaming the brunette, which can only help or hurt my chances with the blond--there's no neutral, here.

Was it a mistake for me to game the brunette with the blond watching? She'll think me a player, methinks, and I haven't been very smooth, to date.

I can think of is "He who chases two rabbits, catches neither."

Oh, what a wicked web we weave...later, I saw that brunette IOIing me while working out with someone who, almost certainly, was her boyfriend. Made me feel am ite superficial returning it.

Still, I managed to get another email, to day, from a girl in an office I visit who's shown interest in me for literally months, but I hadn't ever acted on because I wussed too much.

Clearly, my confidence has risen, and I don't have overwhelming approach anxiety, but I feel AFC, still, and need lots more practice. This was the first time I went direct, and that new directness, combined with body language, has made the difference, even if I haven't learned to throw kino into the mix, yet.

But I must repeat: Did I wreck my chances with the blond by sarging the brunette in the blond's proximity? I don't know how envy works, and how it helps and hinders the seduction process; all I know is I felt like approaching the brunette, and I did.

Why the fuck are you getting emails? Are you not from the United States or something?

I donno maybe you are a lot older than me and people in your social circle are big on emails. Again though, I don't know a single PUA that goes for email closes. I can't give you advice on how to spit game over emails because I've never even thought to do it.

As far as the jealousy thing goes, I wouldn't worry about it. That is the last thing that will blow you out. What will blow you out is how you actually pulled off the approaches and what their impression of you was.

You mentioned in your post that you went direct. From what I could tell, I don't think you went direct at all. Which fine, depending on how you are trying to play it. Going direct is when you express romantic intent as the reason for approaching her. You didn't set up a date. To them, they probably thought you were a friendly guy who wanted to promote his blog. Which again, is fine, but it is not a direct approach.

Well, I'm 35, and me, I use emails. Using that to communicate to college girls, well, that may not be the smartest, but I'm an artist, and said I was going to share with the some of my art, and email is how I normally do it.

So, don't worry especially about jealousy...got it.
