Field report – DayGame at the mall

Hi Everyone,

Yesterday was my first day sarging and applying my game as I learned from the MM book and the pickup artist show. To my surprise I didn’t have any AA (Approach Anxiety) almost at all. I finished work an hour early and set myself a goal of making 5 approaches – now although I didn’t quite fulfilled this goal I was managed to get rid of any traces of AA, I was just gaming and enjoying myself without having a bit of worry about the consequences – and that’s what I’m taking from yesterday’s exercise.

The first approach  took place at an H&M store. I told a girl I’ve got to buy a birthday present to my sister (she did have a birthday this day , so it was kinda true! LOL). She responded that she doesn’t know my sister’s taste so she can’t really help me. I pushed a little further, took some ugly dress from one of the drawers and asked her whether she liked it, at the end I got from her some pretty cold responses and IODs so I ejected pretty quickly – after about 1 minute or so.

The second approach was a hired gun at a soap shop, which was a pretty bad idea, approaching hired guns is much less enjoyable and challenging but overall I think my game there was OK – kept an eye contact , presented some DHVs , etc, but couldn’t get her out of the salesperson character so I ejected.

The third approach was a 3 set, I asked their opinion about a hat I was wearing. (Hi ladies, I need a quick women opinion on something, it will only take a second. What do you think about men with hats?) They were pretty eager,  problem was I noticed they were too young so I ejected quickly as well – but did get a slight ego boost from them =)

The fourth approach was a girl at the bus stop. Asked her a silly question and started talking to her about how much I hate this bus and stuff like that. After she stopped responding to my blabbering , I ejected.

Lessons:

First, let me just say that I would have made much more approaches if I had found suitable targets. There were mostly MILFs + husbands, and teens all around and almost no HBs to be found. The openers overall were pretty good. I was amazed by how quickly you can get rid of AA once you don’t care about the consequence and just thinking “practice, practice, practice”.  hopefully – I’m going to keep this.

But, there were also several things I could have done much better:

1. Stack stories – This one is important. An opener dies pretty quickly, you have to have another story in your barrel ready to be shot exactly 1 second before the previous one dies. This lesson especially applies to the first approach.
2. Don’t ask a lot of questions, it makes the target feel as if she is under interrogation. Instead of asking “Do you live in X? how is this bus ride going to take?” say something like “I bet you live in X. I can see it by the way you dress/talk/etc”.
3. The birthday present opener is a bad one. Indeed, each woman has her one taste and I didn’t find woman amused by giving tips to a guy they didn’t know (unless they wanted to sell him something). A better opener is to ask a girl what does she think about something you’re wearing. That way, you can see if she has some interest in you by the way she looks at you and the way she responds to your newly tried outfit.

This post summarizes Thursday. Today, I’m going to a dance – bar , probably alone – my last single AFC friend got a GF and I don’t want to give up on a Friday night at Tel Aviv – This is a good opportunity to practice. On the next post I’ll elaborate my war plan. Peace!
