Hey guys,
First up, no need to apologise guys, so what if you had alot to drink you looked like you were enjoying yourselves thats the main thing! Don't apologise for having a good time. Summer Junky, no problem for the advice mate, a couple of you looked abit uneasy and anxious at first feeling that you had to force yourselves to open. Feeling you have to approach girls creates unnecessary stress within you and the approach/opener itself will often come across feeling forced and disingenuous.
One thing I learnt from Kowalski and Jynx and I'm very thankful for was that the most important thing to do when you go out is to just have fun and enjoy yourself. Enjoy the company of your friends, soak up the surroundings, become absorbed in the moment. Approaching women is at best second to that. Approach women because you want to, not because you feel you have to or to prove yourself to others. Besides when you're out with no other concerns but to have fun and enjoy yourself it gives you value, look around a bar or night-club and you'll the see the people with the most value are often the ones just kicking-back, care-free enjoying themselves and having fun. Its amazing how many people don't look like they're enjoying themselves. Who are you going to be more drawn to talk to, the person not having fun or the person having a great time??
Summer Junky once you got the ball rolling you were unstoppable!! the women you were approaching were all stunning! you went for the women you liked the look of, no messing. Big respect for that! When we both set ourselves the challenge to approach only directly that was awesome! we should definately do that again sometime!
Mate it was awkward when I told that girl your talking about I thought she was stunning straight up. First off, as I'd gotten 95% of the way there her friend stood in front of my way to speak to her, without really thinking (as I'd locked on like a homing missile to its target) I barged her friend out of the way (not smooth at all, Maverick told me after that girl I'd barged out the way was pregnant!). So the look of fear in the girls eyes after I'd just barged her pregnant friend out of the way was understandable!! lol. I'd come this far, we'd made eye contact as I was walking over so it was unfortunate the obstacle got blown-away like that!
She was also in a mixed 10+ plus set and I could feel the eyes of her friends and orbitors burning holes through me as we were talking. I know alot of guys say engage her friends, I'm not interested in her friends as most of them were guys so for me not wasting my time doing that is only being true to myself. I could sense this was abit much for her being approached like this, she looked pretty shocked so I ejected. But yeah like you said she was checking me out after, funny how that happens?...can't say I blame her lol!
Pavel, cool guy, the guy didn't drink he wanted to do that so respect for that. Opened fearlessly a 8+ set straight up in illusions as soon as we walk in, had their attention for quite sometime, there was definate attraction from a couple I think if you wanted to you could have escalated. When you opened that girl on the street after only just seeing her leg protruding from a door way with 'Nice leg, but what about your personality!' that was funny shit man.
Maverickcup, wow! what a turnaround! I'm sure you'll admit you struggled at first and you were too inside your head but when I pointed out a set for you to open and gave you an opener you did it and it lead to a good interaction. After that you were on-fire opening sets all over the place!! you definately made some good connections with a couple of girls that night. Believe in yourself just a little bit more and you will go along way, of that I'm sure.
Blanca, glad to have hooked up with you again. You have a good energy when you're out and people can't help but be drawn to and feed off that! We didn't get to hang-out for long but we tore-shit up on the dancefloor in that unashamedly way we do!!...cyclones in the middle of 10+ sets was good fun!!
All in all a fun night, I hope everyone can take away some positives from that night. Only the second time guys in the south-west have hooked up but its definately the start of something good!
It was fear of myself that made me odd
