Reactivating old leads

I am curious about your take on this situation:

This girl texted me in the evening:
Hey *chase, this is anika, :-) you approached me a couple of months ago in the city. how is it going? are you still here? greets :-)

I texted back a few minutes later:
Hey Anika. If I approached you, you probably are a really fine girl... ;-) yes I am still living here, just started a new job last month.

Silence.

I checked my diary to see who that girl is. My entry says 19 years old, business student, solid 9.

How would you proceed? Could be a window of opportunity here.
It is Valentine’s day and she is lonely? Or just validation seeking?

You texted back to quickly.

You have to slow play this sh*t.

All might not be lost, but if a girl gets back to you after months, and you texted her back after a few minutes, you got off on the wrong foot again.

I'll bet she'll text you in a day or two. She's bored.

When she does, you can make light of the whole situation with this:

"What? It's only been a day. Real players wait at LEAST a year before replying"

She's 19 and prob dumb as a post, but I hate waiting hours to reply. I have 0% patience for that stuff. So you can shoot that one off a few hours after she gets back to you. she will laugh and respond nearly immediately: guaranteed. After that, follow the Roosh V text guide. And no smilies. Remember the jumbotron test.

If she DOES not respond, just give up.

A year from now you'll wish you started today

I agree with the above posters. You should have waited several hours to respond to her text. Don't appear too eager. Also do not flatter her or talk about her beauty in your response. Remember you are the catch , not her. I would have responded with a statement text and avoided emoticons. Follow the Roissy/ Roosh rules: imagine all of your texts will be printed on a jumbotron for all the world to see. Reduce your expressiveness.

Eh... not a big fan of that response, as you not only giver her validation (you are probably a really fine girl), but also try to validate yourself (just started a new job) and of course the response in a few minutes appears too eager.

I would've either played it smooth, and just said, "Ya, I'm still here for now, what's up?"

Or, been a jackass, "Anika? Hmm, not ringing a bell, I didn't get you pregnant did I!"

These are all good comments. The forum is great. I should have known what you said by now anyway.

But as the G said: All might not be lost. Just got the second text:

"Yes, if you say so, then I probably am really fine :-) You chose a Starbucks, I still remember that. [Image: wink.gif] Cool, what kind of job? xo Anika"

It's funny, can't remember anything about her. I'll wait until tomorrow with the reply.

Mistake #1: Ridiculously quick response. As other have pointed out.

Quote: (02-14-2012 05:21 PM)Chase Wrote:

Mistake #2: Lavishing praise for no reason and in a thirsty, try-hard, and somewhat lame way to boot.

Mistake #3: Just answered her question. Didn't question her back or create any kind of obstacle to the information like, "remind me where we met again."

Three strikes and you're out. You will never penetrate this girl. It shouldn't be this way, but it is.

All of this said, she was probably going through her old contacts and saw your name. She had nothing better to do and gave you a quick audition. If you'd intrigued her, you might gotten somewhere, but your chances were slim to begin with. You'd be eliminated a long time ago, but got a second shot. Don't expect a third. Seconds are rare enough.

Tuthmosis could very well be right - but I doubt the three strikes rule applies. I think you still have alpha cred because you approached her.

Of course: this is HER wanting attention. So you have to almost dismiss her like a cat. She wants to be petted, you have to wave her off.

You do this by giving UNSERIOUS responses to her questions. There is another thread in here about not giving straight answers. NEVER give straight answers. It means you take her seriously.

So:

Her: "What kind of job"

You: "robbing banks"

That's ALL you write. She will reply fast. Like within a few hours. Then the banter is ON and you play it smooth remember your game 101. Respond to her 3-4 times, then stop.

Contact her again Sunday, ignore her if she contacts you in the weekend. Suggest a meet-up, same-day if possible, because you're headed out to do or see something, she can tag along. Follow Tuth's recipe for 1st date bangs.

She remembers a coffee date... odd. Tell her you're in the movie industry. Then hint, but don't directly say you're a male porn star. I blame the radio for my present line of thinking, but this could be fun.

Just roll with the responses you get here, normally I'd say mine, but don't actually use mine. Make up some other comical shit instead. Tell her you're an artist. Drawing portraits of girls like Leo in Titanic.

"Troll" her for laughs. Not only will you find it amusing, but the cockiness of hinting that you're a "male porn star" or anything else you think of will keep you in the right mindset. Fuck with her for a laugh so to speak (just don't lose sight of the aim: to swoop her), and watch out for any hint of neediness or desperation in your replies.
