FR Daygame: have you ever got called out for an approach!?

[average_daygamer]

I was in my small approaching city today. I was planning to head to London but cancelled as for some reason I wasn't feeling it.

So instead I hit the gym and then the streets for some daygame. It was packed in my small city, I did 5 approaches today and backed out of a couple potential sets as well.

However, one thing happened near the end, when I went for my sixth approach which has only happened a couple of times before.

I was eating fizzy sweets and I just see this chick walking with a cleavage top. I thought to myself "come on, 1 more approach. You like boobs after all". So I went up to front stop her but got the distance wrong and kinda almost walked into her.

What can I say, I had been walking around for hours, it was sunny and I was tired and distracted from putting the sweets in my mouth.

She gave a shocked/disgusted reaction and lurched away a bit. Just as I dealt with the blowout a group of lads were walking past and one of them said "Yo, leave her alone G, fuckin' hell" to which I replied "You gotta shoot your shot" and walked off.

In the distance I hear the bro saying "what did he say?" His friend elaborates and says "He said you gotta shoot your shot" then the bro says "Yeah but not by walking into her".

Now this is a very minor incident and I was tired and caught off guard without enough time to coordinate the front stop.

I have had a couple worse incidents and this incident was minor, no aggression on either side, no hint of aggression, very minor.

But it got me thinking, some of the experienced players on here must have been challenged from time to time, I would love to hear them!

after reading a number of posts I am begning to wonder if perhaps you are not meant for a more direct style.

could be the reason you are getting these kinds of blowouts. coming across incongruent with your core personality.

it's just a theory. but have you considered doing a more indirect/sniper style game?

I have thought of it, yes, but you need to be very creative with the indirect approach.

I actually don't like the direct appearance based compliment as I find it cringy and unimaginative.

But the problem is, I am not witty when it comes to thinking of what to say.

My personality doesn't like the idea of these compliments as they seem insincere. But what other reason could you give to stop a girl in her tracks and also not leave her totally confused as to what the interaction is about.

In this case it was more that I had to rush the stop without enough space more than anything.
