Staring is an IOI - if she's staring at you for some time then that means it's time to game. It's good for your game; catching them staring at you, and if they pass your boner test, approaching them is good for your game.

What is boner test? LOL

About that brunette, you should've approached the first time and your questions sound forced and generic, something any other guy would've asked, but just keep approaching, nothing useful comes overnight, and approaching and talking will become as natural to you as breathing.

Thanks, that is true. Most of the things I learnt I only know because I was in the situation and tried it out.

The secret to talking is in "threading" (it's desribed in Bang, I forgot the name) - finding a "hook" and then developing a new "thread" based on that "hook" instead of talking about the same story; for example a story about a hospital may go like this: hospital-nurse-bed-missing your bed at home-wanting a beer from your fridge-drinking beer with your friends at a bar...

Thanks for reminding. If I remember threading is like linking. You start on one topic, when you open that topic, new possible topics can appear while you are talking and then you continue to the topic you choose when you finished with current topic. Do I understand the concept?

Just remember, any topic that you feel is shameful WILL become shameful - if you feel there's no shame at all in talking about how you clogged the toilet after a bad meal, and you act like it's no big deal and you a comfortable talking about it, then it's not at all an embarrasing topic - just like kids teasing one another, the more you complain, the more embarrasing it becomes, and more and more kids join in on the fun, while ignoring it completely and acting like it's no big deal makes the other kids stop teasing you almost immediately.

So how would you have approached the conversation? From start to finish. I like to see how you would lead the conversation

It is true that I sometimes jump from topic to topic without threading/linking. I have to learn natural conversation.
