Hey guys, So a little back story. Met a girl who was great for me, both comic nerds. I did decent in person. She def dug my vibe and Fingered her first nite. But I was unsure about many things and my friend helped me construct texts and gave me advice.

Well this guy was a total afc. He had me texting her every morning. He said every time she texts send three back. Had me buy her flowers and a bunch of chump shit. Well as you can imagine, it chased her away. I was very bummed but angered at the same time. That night I vowed it would never happen to again.

I searched for help. Reading stuff here, only now do I realize how much of a bitch I was being. Ugh. There's still something there I think, she returns text still. But shows little interest.

So I read and leaned. Chases book an half of the game so far

My text game is much better and already scored a date with a new girl tomorrow. I met her online, asked her about a couple things and she gave me digits. Now when I text I wait a half hour to respond and she wanted to see me Friday and I turned her down and said I'm hanging out with my friends.

I think that worked cause the next morning she texted bright and early. So, I don't know how to handle a date though. We're going out to eat. Then I'm going to have her go to best buy with me while I shop.

I'm also following the newbie guide here. I went out and complimented 3 women today. The first two were brief, nice coat, nice scarf. Lame. I knew I had to man up.

I went into hot topic. I saw a really hot girl. I never talk to hot girls. Ever. I got super nervous, I was just going to leave. But then she turned around and I saw her ass. I want one of those one day, I thought. And I'll never get it if I leave. I approached.

Me: I really like your boots.
Her: (blushed) Really?

I didn't give a shit about her boots, but she blushed and acted coy. My head almost blew up. I'm talking to her!?

Me: Yeah, where'd you get them from?
Her: (stuff was said about the boots but my hormones were going crazy)...and so yeah. Like only 20 bucks. (Smile)

Pause.

This is where I blew it. I was just so lost. The newbie thing just said a compliment. I bailed. I ran away....
I did feel good though because I made it that far. And I could tell, it was working!

I didn't know if I should neg or introduce myself?, I was just so lost. I will continue to fight though. I've come out of it only more encouraged. I'm loving it so far and even have a date tomorrow!
 
the right date makes getting her back home a piece of cake

Cool to hear you did your first approach and an excellent job I must say. By excellent job I mean excellent job for being entry level in which every approach is excellent since you did it! I highly recommend the route you're going as far as beating approach anxiety. Lean into fear! This is what the newbie assignment is all about.

This is going to happen a lot when you first start out. Don't beat yourself up if you are at a loss for words, just make note of what you could have said to keep the conversation going further next time. Maybe you could have said "Well I really don't have much experience of what makes a boot good or not I just liked them on you!". Or
"20 dollar boots huh? Well you fooled me. Though I'll admit I'm not really the boot connoisseur." and then introduce yourself.

I highly recommend creating a journal in the Field Report page to keep track of these mental notes on how to improve better next time and also keep up with your newbie assignment.

Nice to meet you btw. Hope you continue to push your comfort zone in life!

-Rob
