Hey all, I've run into a particular issue. Most of the time I make approaches, it's with girls on their own, however a fair few times it's happened where one of her friends will call her away while I'm getting somewhere with her, while it's just me and the woman. My assumption would generally be that it was because the girl I'm conversing with pulled a face for her friend to call her over, however my experience with this has made me think this isn't the case.

For instance, last night I approached a HB8/9 for literally a couple of minutes. Her friend called her over to the bar when it seemed she was interested, especially as when she was called over she insisted that I say hi to her when I get back. When she got back, she positively sprinted towards me, but her friends called her back to say that they were leaving and claimed I didn't want to talk to them.

This kind of thing (approaching a one-set for her to be called away) has happened a lot of times since I started taking this stuff seriously. Is this something to be expected and perhaps a reason not to approach single girls or is there a way of dealing with this?

Yeah, I'm slowly learning....HB8/9/10s WILL NOT BE ALONE (in a nightlife setting).

The friends are COCK BLOCKERS. Search it and read about it. Its like a secret code the ladies have going on. Their friends can pick up on things your target doesn't notice. Kinda like how you can see a pick-up going on across the room, and its soo obvious to you.....but when it happens to YOU, you're like "is this a pickup? Am I being hit on? Am I doing this right"? Bystanders can see 100 times more than you do.

Quite a lot of people lose their friends in clubs. I'm aware people don't go out alone.
