Going Into A Bar at 18 Years Old

[AsianPersuasion]

I was out tonight hoping to possibly get a Field Report posted and try out some advice recently given to me by Chase and Richard, but unfortunately, after going to three venues, I saw absolutely zero girls at my age... I can't shotgun it anymore because this time around I'm actually legal haha. It sucked too because I'm pretty sure my hair and shit was awesome today, and I was feeling rambunctious.

It got me thinking about how bad girls must feel when they pretty themselves up for places and never end up meeting any decent guy all night... And they put way more time into themselves than I ever do.. Honestly, I probably would have talked to any girl my age that night, even if she was only decent looking. If anything it only reinforces my observation last summer that girls that make themselves prettier are easier to talk to. They do all this crap to themselves that it feels like they SHOULD be getting compliments and meeting a new guy considering all the effort they went through.

Unfortunately, the girls I seem to be meeting out with daygame seem to be wearing sweatpants and stuff everywhere, with their hair mangled, so I'm guessing I sound like I'm bullshitting them when I tell them they look pretty... I legitimately do think so, but that's because I try to imagine them without the sweatpants... or anything really... Still though, they don't seem like they feel entitled to a compliment.

So I might think about changing up venues a bit. I want to see if I can find a place where there are lots of girls dressed to the nines feeling almost entitled to a compliment. Honestly, going out for daygame for 2 hours and seeing nobody kinda pisses me off, so I need someplace where people actually go for social reasons. Even though I'm not 21, I'm thinking about going into a bar or something anyway... I mean, it's not like the ability to buy someone a drink ever gets you anything anyway, right? Do you guys see any potential in someone going into a bar to hit on girls and not being old enough to drink?

What kind of venues should a guy in high school hit up? Like I said, I'm in a rambunctious mood today, so great suggestions will be highly appreciated, and ridiculous suggestions will amuse the hell out of me.

Only night-time venues I've seen with under 21 and 21+ people mingling are restaurants with a bar and self-seated areas. This includes pizza parlors, sports bars, sushi bars, some Chinese restaurants, ect. The important thing I think is being self-seated, allowing you to "hang on" a spot for the night w/o a waiter rushing things.

Saw this ALL the time in college. The under 21 crowd sits at the tables, gets up with a non-alcoholic beverage in hand, and mingles with the 21+ folks near the bar. Nights a local sports team plays means a full-house - everyone walks to the bar and tables. Someone under 21 near the bar (especially if the TV screen is above the bar) will not seem unusual. Shoot, most of the girls I talked to didn't give a damn about the game! She'll probably be happy having a distraction

The obvious seems to be in school pick-up. Unless the girls are only wearing sweatpants there as well. I got my start in learning pick-up by talking to girls in high school, and the few girls I approached were pretty receptive most of the time.

It is indeed rare to find women dressed exceptionally well, especially in high school. Here's a few places that I think you'd find some girls at:

- The Gym. Every time I walk in there, girls are dressed in their cute little workout clothes.
- Extra-curricular Events. There are tons of events going on at a school. It's less in high school, but most girls will dress pretty well when they attend one of these things. Sporting events come to mind as being a frequent place to meet girls. Especially track events - hundreds of athletic girls from tons of different schools all come to one place in spandex and tank tops, and most of the time they are just stuck there watching their teams with time to kill before or after their respective races. But you can also go to musicals, plays, club-sponsored events, etc.
- Shopping for clothes at an upscale, expensive store. Most women shopping for high quality clothing certainly care about how they look more than the average woman. Hopefully this suggestion was as amusing as it is credible .

All of these are awesome advice. I wish I knew more of what to say besides thank you, but that's about all I can think of when I'm sleep deprived. I'm definitely trying all of this at some point
