The hero: 5ft 6, neatly trimmed beard, fancy designer specs, jeans, Cream white polo shirt with red and navy stripes (doesn't sound great but does look pretty good), 42 yo (looks more like 35 though) black sneakers, cologne of the day is Paco Rabanne Invictus (It's a good weekend scent)
The scene: Sunny Sunday afternoon in Edinburgh. I had my 2nd covid vax y'day, but no ill effects so I'm out to meet girls.
Soundtrack: A change of pace today. I was watching videos by The Shamen on Youtube last night (very funny) and yearned for the days where I would get fucked off my head on E's with my friends every weekend, smoke a load of dope, and maybe throw in a few mushrooms for good measure. All good wholesome fun, so I needed a suitable soundtrack for a Sunny Sunday come down.
90's Rave Classics Spotify playlist (pretty hit or miss, some total bangers and some awful shite)
Highlights: N-Trance: Set You Free, U.S.U.R.A: Open Your Mind, Orbital: Chime, Opus III: It's a Fine Day
The Prodigy: Music for a Jilted Generation
Highlights: No Good (Start the Dance), Voodoo People, Claustrophobic Sting
Lots of lyrics about freedom and love - very uplifting on a nice sunny day.
Nb. 'love' in this instance nearly always means being fucked off your head of E's, not sex. Good luck trying to fuck a girl if you've had 5 Ecstacy tablets for your dinner! Not going to happen. Just saying. Lots of hugs though.
So, bring out the girls!
Girl 1
Very hot looking redhead, saw her at Sunday artisan market near my home. Hung back to check her out, very pretty, amazing ass in tight jeans, long red hair, mid 30s, seemed to be one her own. She left and walked up the road a bit. I thought about giving her a miss, as I was just 2 minutes out of my home, but couldn’t. The urge to go talk to her was too strong and I had to pursue her (Take that AA!).
So I went after her down the road, she crossed the road, so I went across and put my hand up to say hi, stop.
“Hi, I hope you don’t mind me saying this but…”
She looked a bit unsure, a bit, what is this guy going to say.
“I saw you back there and I thought you were very attractive”
She stopped looking concerned. She knew what was up now.
I asked if she was just out for a bit on a Sunday afternoon.
I’m trying to get the ball rolling with the conversation by asking if she is doing the thing that she is most likely doing, in the hope that it will open up an opportunity to develop the conversation.
So, for example, “are you just on your lunch break from work?” leads to an opportunity to ask what she does for a job and how does she like it. Then I can either run with that if she is super into her job or get away from the boring stuff and ask what do you like to do when you are away from work for fun.
So, blah blah, blah. She was from Birmingham and was heading back there in a few hours, she’d been in Edinburgh for about a week and a half.
I said, “oh no, I’m too late. I was going to ask you out”
“I’ll take that as a compliment”
“Well, have a good trip home”
Girl 2:
Low Fidelity Babe - realised when I approached that I wasn’t into her, so made a quick exit. Pointless to continue.
Girl 3:
Very cute girl, early 20’s sitting on a bench on the main high street, one the quiet side of the road.
I walked past, noticed her, the urge to talk to her overcame the AA again (ha ha FU AA!)
Sat down beside her and said “I hope you don’t mind me saying this, but I saw you there and I thought you were very very cute”
She immediately got up without looking at me and walked away!
I thought this was hilarious and walked off in the opposite direction laughing out loud as I continued down the street.
Girl 4:
So, the 2 girl approach
I went to head home and walked through a small park area near the fancy designer shops, to see if anyone interesting might be there.
I saw a redhead.
She was absolutely stunning!
Seriously.
Gerda has now been relegated from a 10 to a 9 because of this girl!
Only 1 problem. She was sitting with a friend and obviously, they were deep in conversation.
I walked past, thought “shit, that sucks that she's with her friend”
But decided she was far too hot to pass up.
So thought I could bide my time a little and see if they got up and said their goodbyes, so I could move in.
So, went to sit down nearby, stood in eyeshot for a bit, looking for somewhere to sit, and then sat down, so I was just on the edge of her field of vision. Hoping for some IOIs as I smoked a cigarette and waited.
Cigarette finished, I decided to go and talk to them both.
Went up to both, who were still deep in conversation, and said to the friend (note: the friend, not the hot girl I wanted to fuck).
“hi, I’m sorry to interrupt, but I saw your friend here (gestured to my new princess) and I thought she was absolutely stunning!” (This was easy to say because I 100% meant it)
“so I had to come over and say hello”
They were both a bit taken aback. Obviously, this hadn’t happened much to them, if ever.
Introduced myself, asked their names and asked them if they were just hanging about on a Sunday afternoon. Yes, of course they were. I noticed redhead had an accent, I thought she might have been Canadian, and said “oh,. you have an accent, I think you’re from… North America”
“South Africa”
“Oh wow, I was way off there. I usually get Australia mixed up with South Africa”
They both agreed that this mix-up happened a lot. (I've spoken to South African girls before, so I already knew this. It's my go-to line with South Africans. It doesn't work the other way round though, with Australians, because no-one ever thinks they're from South Africa)
So I asked if they stayed in Edinburgh, how long they’d been here, how are they finding it, were they getting used to the accent, and said that mine can be a bit hard to understand sometimes.
This girl was looking at me wide-eyed with a sort of “wow, who’s this guy?” look on her face, very intrigued by me and what I was doing
I was so completely mesmerized by how beautiful this girl was that I couldn’t think of anything to say.
I just went blank, and asked one of the questions I’d asked them already, and stood for a bit unable to say anything.
So the friend says “well, nice to meet you”
So obviously it was time to go.
I said “okay, nice to meet you both too.” And said to the redhead, “wow, you are really nice!”
And I left and walked off, thinking “wow, she looked amazing, fuck me, wow”
I had just gotten out of the very small park area (30 seconds walk) and stopped for a few seconds, then turned around and walked straight back over to the 2 girls.
Said to readhead.
“look, I’m sorry, but I couldn't go home without asking you if you wanted to go out for a drink sometime”
She said she had a boyfriend.
So I said “well, I had to ask, I would have felt really bad if I didn’t, you guys have a nice day”
Fuck, she was so fucking hot.
I genuinely could not go home until I got a ‘no’ from her, rather than being shooed away by her friend.
She was absolutely stunning, and the way she looked up at me with those wide eyes and the expression of total intrigue on her face completely threw me, I was just “oh my god, wow” and was stopped in my tracks.
So, I did my first 2 girl approach, so lots to learn from that I think.
Any suggestions on how to improve?
Thoughts
Need to look cooler, learn about style (clothes, not Neil Strauss)
Need to look better - lose the belly flab, do weights, get fit
Need to learn 2 girl approaches
Need to work on standard approach and have go-to questions for likely scenarios (eg. lunchtime weekday, weekends etc)
Think that suggesting what girl is doing is a good way to open conversation. eg. are you just on your lunch from work?
I like the "I hope you don't mind me saying this" - feel it builds tension
