Ok, so my field report from the club was focusing on my efforts approaching and getting rejected a lot.

However, there was one curious incident which left me confused.

I was at the beginning of the night sitting down at a table.

This young chick with these two very young looking "beta" male looking boys notices my earbuds (the music is much too loud without them) and asks me if I am okay. I say, yes I am okay, just a bit tired. I think nothing of it and just count it as a warmup.

I go to the dancefloor to see if I can get a couple of approaches in and do.

Later on, I come back and this chick starts chatting again and offers to buy me an alcoholic drink. I make a joke and say "Are you trying to get me drunk" and she says "yes" jokingly. She is very close to my face when talking to me. I suspect she is already drunk.

I have a no alcohol rule because I want these skills to be transferable to daygame and interactions in general.

But I go along with it and she gets this horrible overly sweet drink called a yaeger bomb and suggests I drink it in one go, which I don't do. I just sip it and say I don't like the taste. This whole time, she was talking very close to me and definitely hands on.

So it seems as though she is atleast curious but something seems off. I am there to meet chicks so I figure this is just part of the process and figuring out what she is up to.

She says "do you want to go to the dancefloor" I say yes, let's do that, we go to the dancefloor, she brings these 2 boys tagging along with her. On the dancefloor I decided I wanted answers so I ask how they all know each other.

She says "Oh, he's my boyfriend and his friend" then she says something I didn't quite catch along the lines of "but we're something something so you can dance with me, it's fine".

As this point, I'm thinking, she's mentioned she has a boyfriend so she is probably not interested, but what did she say? For all I know, she might have said they were in an open relationship and he was a cuck or something and wanted to see her with other men :LOL:

But there is more to it. At some point she says "are you autistic" which hits like a sledgehammer. I am forced to admit that is the case and she said "I thought so, my brother suffers from autism as well". Now it all makes sense.

All she was doing was being kind and giving me "an experience". At some point, she probably realised that and lost interest. Or maybe it was from the start? "Oh, let me be kind to that guy sitting by himself who might suffer from Asperger's" kind of thing.

She drags us back to the bar along with these 2 boys she's bossing around and asks what I want to drink again, I say a water so as to not waste her money. When she is waiting for the drinks I decide to leave because as far as I see it, it was a "simulated" experience and she was clearly in a "caretaking" role. I went to the 1st floor and never saw her again. Maybe she took that as a rejection, I don't know.

I felt like if I tried to clumsily start escalating the interaction from that frame it would seem creepy as she decided that I needed caring for rather than seeing me as man she was attracted to.

I also got so many mixed signals. Was she expecting me to escalate things with this poor "boyfriend" there or what? I dunno. I know I should try to isolate the girl and do things that way, but if she wanted that, why was she dragging her "boyfriend" and his friend to the dancefloor as well?

I like straightforward situations, where I approach and I get accepted or rejected based on the actions I have taken.

I feel like maybe I should have tried to get her Insta or number? They can't have had a very serious relationship and the young lad's time would come when he would become a real man, but I really need to get things rolling as this is my time now, before I am old.

But how could I have done that? Once she was in that "care taking mode" was the set blown do you think?

I feel like I could have done more. But I really didn't know what to do. Somehow have indicated that I want me and her to go somewhere? She was very much leading everything and I felt if would seem creepy if I tried to take control and also how to get rid of those 2 annoying boys.

There was also the question of how drunk she was and if it would have been okay to be more "man to woman" or if she wasn't in control of herself. A lot of the time, when chicks are unexpectedly friendly, it is because they are drunk.

You ejected too early, which is a common problem. Should have at least asked her for her number, since you got a freebie there. Always be closing.

Also, it was rude to just leave while she was ordering you a water that she now has to pay for and nobody will be drinking it most likely.

Sounds like a good chance she said "we're poly", or in an open relationship, ethically non monogamous etc.

Even if she is not interested, this may be a good strategy for you if you are not getting good reactions generally. That is to befriend groups and build some social proof.

Your next set may be a lot more receptive if they saw you with her vs. If they saw you sitting alone. Some guys can pull off sitting alone for a bit. Others have a strict rule to never even be seen alone at all.
