Lots of approaches today because I had the time. My golden ratio appears to be about 1 number every 10 approaches.

Also, some interesting things happened today... I had my first girl refuse to give me a compliment because she thought it was cocky... And I ended up approaching three girls I had already approached last summer in different locations... My town is too damn small.

I got three numbers today, but only one so far has replied:

Me: *pre-opens with nudge and feigns nervousness* "Do you think it'd be okay if a stranger gave another stranger a sincere compliment?"
Her: "Um sure!"
Me: "Well alright then, give me a compliment :)"
Her: "Hahaha, what??? Um, I really like your shirt! It compliments your skin very well."
Me: "Thank you! I love where you put your sunglasses" (Not the best compliment, but it looks like it didn't hurt me too bad)
Her: "Haha thanks!"
Me: "I'm AP. What's your name?"
Her: "I'm Abby." *my wingman began to chat up the girls in her group*
Me: "Nice to meet you!"
Her: "Nice to meet you too!"
Me: "So are you guys just hanging out here, or are you guys like actually looking for something?"
Her: "We're just kinda hanging out... Well... I'm looking for a phone case actually. I'm looking for one for (brand of smartphone she had)"
Me: "Ahhhhh okay... See this?" *hold up my brick phone* "I've got a brick. I don't have to worry about it being stolen either because nobody wants this"
Her: "Hahaha!"

Somewhere along the line, a salesman whisked her away to sample perfumes and I talked one of her friends about speech team... Her friend and I actually related very well, but I've learned from experience that it's a bad idea to open one girl but ask the number of another... Guess it's just luck of the draw who you open in a group. I also found out that none of the girls had boyfriends.

After a while, the girl I opened came back.

Her: "He was creepy!"
Me: "Who, the perfume guy?"
Her: "Yes!"
Me: "Hahaha! Well maybe he likes you ;) at least he's got good taste."
Her: "Hahaha, noooo!"
Me: "Anyway, your friend and I here were just having a conversation about speech team... what do you like to do for fun?"
Her: "Um... I was in DECA! ..I don't know.. Shopping!"
Me: "Well of course! Haha"
Her: "...Hanging out with them... Lot's of sports. Softball, soccer... (Names off more hobbies)

We had this conversation about how everyone thought soccer was an easy sport but it really wasn't.. Due to lots of exposure today, I can't remember the conversation very well. We brushed over her position and the fact that I sucked at soccer as a kid because I was a fat little Asian boy.

Me: "Do you like coffee at all?"
Her: "I do actually!"
Me: "What's your favorite drink?"
Her: "Turtle mocha."
Me: "Huh.. I would have guessed caramel cooler."
Her: "Really? Do I just look like that kind of person then?"
Me: "I suppose so."

(I was going to go on about how you can tell a lot about a person's personality by what kind of things they drink. Introverts tend to like lighter flavors and extroverts tend to like stronger ones, and you can elaborate from there... My wing asked one of the girls for their number though.)

Me: "Actually, I was about to ask you the same thing. Do you want to grab some coffee with me sometime?"
Her: "Haha! Wow, that was actually really smooth! Sure!"
Me: "Awesome. What's your number?" *I hand her the phone as she saves her number into my phone.*
Her: "I'll have to see. I can be really busy because I have soccer every single day."

Soon they said they had to go, and so we parted ways.

Me: "Bye! Hope we can grab coffee before I leave!"
Her: "Wait, where are you going?"
Me: "Morris!"
Her: "Ohhh okay!"

So far, the text conversation has gotten as far as

Me: "Hey abby, it's AP :) save my number"
Her: "Ahaha hey!"
Me: "I found out you can tell a lot about a person's personality by what a person drinks... Like people who like drinks like turtle mocha tend to be really extroverted and energetic."
Her: "Cuz I just started drinking coffee after I had Dailey"
Me: "What's Dailey?"
Her: "My baby..."
Me: "Ohhhhh gotcha lmao. I figure you would need the coffee then lol.... I used to drink 7 cups a day like three years ago"

I'll keep this post updated if my interaction with Abby goes farther or if I get a response from one of the other girls... One agreed to a date this sunday, and the other is smoking hot and agreed to have coffee with me in her town. I'll keep you guys posted :)

I tried texting Abby today and she shot me a "Hey who is this???" text.

Looks like this one's a dead end.

That sucks man. I always feel less is more when it comes to texting.

I feel like unless she gives you some sort of an IOI, then you need to frame everything as friends.

Once you asked about meeting up for coffee, you blew your cover. She clearly liked you, but wasn't sure if she wanted you in that way.

Instead, I would invite her out to something you are doing...anything that will be fun. Then you are just being an outgoing person inviting others for fun. Like, "Hey my friends are going to this free concert you should tag along, maybe you'll meet a new boyfriend there"

her: "You mean you?"

You: "No, I mean maybe one of my friends or someone else you meet at the concert" Now she is more interested in you because she is wondering if you like her or not. And if she says she has a boyfriend then you say, "bring him along, the more the merrier" (don't be surprised if is she ends up not bringing him and gives you a silly excuse).

Of course, a lot of this hinges on you having a life that she would want to be apart of.

However, if she gives you some strongs IOIs, you can fuck up a lot and she'll still come chasing after you. I find one of the best way to get girls in a chase mode is to give a story that conveys value and will create strong emotions in her (fear, excitement, laughter, etc.).

Where do you live?

Also, that is a great opener. I'll have to use it one day.

Hey Metomeya!

I've actually been trying to text girls as minimally as possible, but for some reason that hasn't been able to get me on dates... Haha, it goes against what the site teaches, but I feel I have to experiment with everything. Perhaps when my game improves, I'll be able to keep the text subject on the date alone, but at this stage it appears to be too fast for the girl. The best thing about trying to push things too fast though is that it's much easier to scale down than scale up... I'm experimenting as I type this slowing down the interaction just a tad by texting the girl more... I'll have the results posted soon.

I live in Minnesota man, and the towns around me are small enough so that I've accidentally approached girls I had already approached the previous year. Feel free to use that opener :) it was never mine to begin with.
 
a good date brings a smile to your lips... and hers

Hi Anatman!

Do you mean that my going away to Morris within a week played a role in the interaction fizzling out later? If so, I'm thinking I need to lay that situation down for them earlier in the conversation that I'll be gone very soon.
