Ok this is a quick update since I don't want it to be more of a full blown field report.
Went out to this one venue (with my friend and his fuck buddy) and ended up chatting with a bartender that looked bored (opened a few other girls but nothing came of it). Set the frame that i wasn't trying to be a typical dude that hits on her. It went well. Throughout the night i would go back up and chat some more. She seemed into me, but my ego fucks with me and i feel weird about asking for a bartenders number. This time though I think i should have did it. She kept looking at me and smiling and even made eye contact with me before she left when her shift was over. Again, these were all glaring signs to me in the moment but my ego held onto my actions like I was caught in a fucking spiderweb.
After this, i was really just mad and disappointed in myself. So when i left this bar, and drove back to my apt, I made it a goal to be more assertive and go after what i want. I walked over to a bar close to my apt, chatted it up a with a few dudes and a girl to keep the social momentum going. The bar literally closed in 15 mins so i wasn't here too long. I wanted a cheap beer so i got a PBR. Afterwards i was joking with the bartender and asked for refund and said she tricked me into getting the beer (i wasn't enjoying it anyway). She laughed, I laughed. It wasn't serious just a stupid playful thing to say.
Walking over to the next venue, 2AM at this point, I remembered the article on night street game. So even before hitting the bar, i was scouting the streets for potential prey. I get walking behind two girls and a dude. I said something like, "you walk so slow, holding up traffic here!". The guy laughed and the one girl was laughing too. The other was a little serious about it so i walked with them and made a little small talk.
At this point i got to the venue. I'm skipping a lot of details but my problem came on three occasions when i tried to make the pull back to my crib. The first girl was with friends and i had her isolated briefly at the bar. Her friends wanted to go and walk back home. I told her she should stay and i'll walk her back afterwards. The dude knew though so he was cockblocking the shit out of me. The girl seemed conflicted but in the end i lost that.
The second instance came when the bar was basically closing and i was just standing at the bar talking to this random guy (just keep the social momentum going). This girl walks up and stands on the other side of him. I'm pretty much in the zone at this point so if i make eye contact i'm just holding it and smiling sexy until the girl laughs and says "what!?". I walk over to her, should have commanded her to come to me like i did other girls but whatever i just went to stand by her. Anyways, the chatting is light and fun. I honestly don't even remember what the hell we were talking about. I didn't do major deep diving with this girl, she seemed really into me. A little while later her friends come over and i realize it was the ones i ran into on the street lol. So even before this i was trying to plan logistics (where you live, who you here with, etc). There was a lot of touching and intense eye contact. She had to meet her parents at church at 10AM so they were all getting ready to leave. I might have pushed once to pull her back but then she told me to take her number. I obliged, and told her don't give me your number unless you plan on responding lol. So i cope the digits and continue on.
One tid bit about this interaction... this girl called me "smooth" which i sometimes get if my game is on point like a mutter fucker. I hate this because i think of it more negatively. I forget what i said to it but just something i wanted to note and what it means when they say this.
The last part of the nights journey had me talking to this cool guy and these two girls who are both into TV production or something. Anyways we all go outside and once again I'm trying to pull this chick back but again she is with her friends and I just couldn't overcome it.
All in all, it was a good night. I had more fun this time around. My main sticking point was pulling a girl with all the outside factors against me (mainly friends).
