The Plan

By next Sunday June 12, I want to complete 100 day game approaches... If I don't, I will donate $400 to Hillary Clinton's campaign.

Yesterday, I did 12 to bring my total to 27. Today I did 9 to bring me to 36 with another week to go. Hillary isn't getting my cash!

I am almost completely over approach anxiety, something which I didn't expect to happen. I said almost because I seem to be weaseling out of approaches in two cases:

1) The girl is near enough to other people that I know I'll have an audience. I need to stop caring.

2) The girl is dolled up in that slutty/stylish way with the latest threads and 2 pounds of make up. This isn't quite the same as weaseling out of the hottest girls. I opened several stunners the last two days, but they had simpler girl-next -door looks. This is definitely coming from a place of lack of entitlement. I think my entitlement will grow and this will disappear.

Most of my targets are walking toward me; I am really enjoying stopping them head on instead of letting them pass and then jogging back. I am getting fewer startled responses, more stops, and I feel like less of an idiot. But I will keep the London-style stop in my back pocket for the right moments.

Interesting approaches over the last two days:

#16: Hooked strongly, everything was smooth, when I asked for her number, she said, "I have a boyfriend, and I wouldn't like if he gave his number out, so I cannot."

Golden rule. Respect.

#21: Initially startled badly by a London stop, but I smoothed that over, she invested and I got her facebook.

#25: Hooked immediately and strongly, but couldn't give me her number because she was married.

#27: I was sitting and waiting for my date and a common meeting place. A girl came and stood one meter away. I haven't had much luck opening girls who were waiting here, but I think proximity is the biggest IOI girls give, so I opened with "You look like you're also waiting for a friend." She opened easily. Her friend showed up in 30 seconds, but I talked to them for 5 minutes and got a number. She is really responsive to text, and I think I will see her tomorrow.

#30 A very cute girl in a white shirt and bright pink skirt came out of an alley way one meter in front of me. She was just my type. Skinny, girl next door, and I loved what she was wearing.

I said, "Excuse me, I hope you speak a little English" and then the local words for "a little bit." She said, a little, and I hit her with a compliment.

She seemed a little confused and asked if I was looking for a place that sounds like the words "a little bit."

Things were not off to a good start. She spoke very little English and gave very short answers, but I stayed in set and tried to engage in English, a little of the local language, and with google translate. I figured that she was making no effort to leave, so she must like me despite investing very little.

She eventually became convinced that I was lying and spoke perfect [local language.] This led to her only speaking that and me catching 10% of it.

Eventually she had to catch a bus to an exam, but she happily gave me her number.

This one will be a huge challenge to get through a date with, but I'm keen to try.

#36 A cute girl turned onto the street a step behind me. She was dialing her phone. I decided to keep a step in front of her and wait out the call. After a block, she hung up.

"Wow, you sounded really angry on that call!"

"Haha no, I was inviting my roommate for a drink."

"It sounded like you wanted to kill her."

And we had a pleasant conversation about how the language sounds for a few blocks until she stopped.

"I have to cross the street here, but give me your number and we can go to a club some time."

She number closed me.

When I got her name for the contact in my phone, it was Spanish, so we talked for a few minutes about Spain.

Stats through 36 approaches: 23 hooks, 7 numbers and 2 facebooks, zero dates, zero lays.

[JWLZG]

Can we recount instances where you were the one approached?

I was riding the tram last Wednesday evening; it was rush hour and I was reading a novel. A girl comes up to me. She's a 6, dressed in a hipster way.

"Where'd you get The Canary from?" She asked, indicated the magazine I held against my book.

"I nicked it from the studio my friend's band plays in," I replied.

She seemed impressed. In my city, it's so ubiquitous for SWPL's to know someone who plays in a band I'm surprised that it still gets you brownie points.

"What do you think of it?" She carried on.

"Not really tram reading material," I declared after a pause. Too abstract for that.


She laughed a little.

"What's your vested interest in it?" I returned.

"My friend's one of the subeditors."

"So you'll be able to fix me up with a job if I'm nice enough?"

"Maybe, but the writers don't get paid there."

"It's not exactly the fast track to fame and fortune, huh?"

"Hah, don't even think about it."

"Cool, I'll put any career changes on hold. I'm not a writer, as it is."

She smiled and replied something which I forgot. I'm pretty sure what we'd actually said verbatim was a bit more stimulating than that.

At that moment, the tram stopped and a herd of passengers boarded. We exchanged smiles and got separated amidst the crowd.

She eventually sat herself down and began playing with her mobile (duh). She remained that way even after the crowd had thinned out. Her attention was still riveted there when I alighted about 5 minutes later.

I wasn't hugely into her but in hindsight, should've # closed her to get into her social circles.

[RunsWithScissors]

I live on a moderately busy residential street and last night was out front watering and weeding while my kids played nearby. I often smile and say hello to people that walk/bike by, and last night a cute woman was riding by on her bike and looking at my kids playing. I was watching her as she shifted her attention to me, I smile and said hello, she smiled and said hello back, I said "How's it going?" and she actually used the brakes on her bike to slow down but was already moving past us and then got back on the gas and rode off. Felt like she wanted to stop or maybe thought she knew me, then changed her mind.

Do you have any suggestions on how I could have gotten her to stop? My initial thought is to just say "Hey what's your name?" and then ask if she lives nearby or something... In these situations it's very much split decision making and I'm trying to get quicker with my reflexes.

[JWLZG]

Last Friday:

I was riding the tram back home from an interview. I'd thought I'd done pretty well relative to it's scope and my preparation for in, so I was in decent spirits. Additionally, I was dressed decently, wearing a bespoke naval greatcoat (I'm not that rich, I swear ) over my suit against the start of winter.

I was standing I noticed a girl near me against one of the doors. She was just about cute, a brunette 7 with slightly olive complexion. Very unusually, she wasn't playing with her mobile, but staring rather listlessly, almost interestedly, out the window.

Apart from the people seated, the tram wasn't crowded. All the same, I waited for the tram to pass a couple of stops before saying anything.

Me: You're not from around here, are you?

Her (Starting a little, then turning and smiling): Nah I'm not....are you?

Me: Yeah, sure.

Her: Do you know if this tram goes past the hospital?

Me: Sure, a few of them do . . . Why, in a rush to visit someone?

Her: No, I've got placement.

Me: Ah, to be a doctor?

Her: Hardly! A midwife.

Me (smirking): Are you going to be delivering a few babies.

Her: I dunno...maybe! Yeah, I hope so!

Me: C'mon, a few lives probably depend on you!

At that moment, the tram's PA system crackled to life about services for the exam period. I should said something, as it pertained to my university.

We sorted of turned away. The tram was approaching the hospital. She moved towards the door.

As the began to halt, she turned back and smiled before alighting.

Even if I wasn't fully into her, I wasted a good 4 minutes before I actually opened her. I should stop being so damn self-conscious about what other passengers think.

[fokker]

On Monday, I approached a blonde 7 (possibly a 7.5) with glasses on the train home. She was sitting across from me and we had a short chat. I tried to get her number at the end of the interaction using my band as a pretext, but she said she'd look them up.

[Chetthebaker]

Riding the boat from Brooklyn to Financial district I spot a very petite cute dark Asian chick getting on. I might call her an 8. She goes upstairs. Wait a few seconds, follow upstairs like I just got on. The bench behind hers is empty so I go and sit down.
Open her about the boat running late, ramble about the boat and the subway for a few minutes and have a pleasant conversation. Drop bait about a trip, she takes a little bite.
We talk a bit more about the neighborhood and then she's ready to get off- earlier than expected.
She says nice meeting you and info for the number, but she says she's seeing someone.

I'm really struggling with getting anything new going on.

You went from zero dates to three. How did the dates go?

Good work putting yourself out there.

[rubashov]

New to game/trp in general.

Yesterday walking home did some approaches. Nerve racking but managed 3 - chickened out of another 20 I could have probably.


HB 7.5 Blond sitting lotus with a book on bench. Wearing earphones. Walked past once then turned round and approached. Used line that she looked like a buddah sitting on a bench. Interaction went well, she hooked after maybe 2-4 min asking what I do. Chit chat for another 5 then got number. Was a little standoffish last few minutes (not deliberate). She remained sitting and I standing whole time.

Stumbled over my words a few times opening minute, was fine after that. She seemed surprised and delighted I approached her. She was waiting for friends and studying (smart girl!)

Technique: Rough LDGM.

Total time: 5-8mins.

Good:
-Withdrew interest after she hooked
-Didn't ask for her number. Said "I'll get your number.

Work on:
-Talk slower and deeper.
-Body language. Thought perhaps I could have stood taller, hard to tell as she was sitting.
-Focussed eye contact. It was good but there were times I could have held stronger more deliberate eyes. Take note of girls eye colour from now.
-Take opportunity of handshake at names to keep holding her hand, longer than usually appropriate. Kino was difficult otherwise as she was sitting.
-If going to shake or touch her hand at end. Make sure you hold it for longer than a normal handshake. Sexualise it.
After passing shit test, don't needlessly elaborate/explain too much. Move on.

HB 7 blond viking walking towards me with headphones. Motioned for her to stop and take out her earphones. Thought she didn't speak English at first as she stared blankly at me. Didn't stack at all as I didn't have anything in mind, recovered it partly after finding out she was from Norway with Viking characteristics. Entered interview mode unfortunately.

Asked her name and gave her playground gf story. She didn't ask mine and her body-language wasn't great so unfortunately disqualified myself and left. Disappointed I didn't stick around and make her reject me.

Technique: nothing

Time: 2-3mins.

Good:
-Stopped her.

Work on:
-Stronger opening, let them understand why I am stopping them.
-Stacking. Have 3 topics in mind before stopping them.
-Speak slower and lower.
-Don't cock block myself. Doesn't matter what her body language is.

Got a small pizza and stopped HB 7 South American looking 3 seconds after exiting. Good strong open, said I thought she looked nice introduced myself and held her hand a little longer than necessary.

Mind blanked on the stacking, I saw she was holding a cigarette and for some reason said "I don't do smokers" and walked off. Wtf?

Technique: LDGM

Time: 30s.

Good:
-Instant approach
-Good strong open.

Work on:
-Stacking
-Don't bail.

-------

Overall pretty happy. Lots to work on though. Going out again tomorrow. I'm doing direct game deliberately - my general personalty is very assertive and I think it fits me better. Once I get good at it, I'll switch to indirect.

Any tips on slowing down speaking pace? One thing that was really obvious in retrospect was 2/3 I didn't open strong and the girl wasn't sure why I had stopped her till 10-20s in.

[Burn]

Opened a girl at my gym today, have seen her there many times before. Just asked how it is going and some super simple conversation like that. She is always there with a guy, maybe boyfriend maybe friend.

Will go out and open girls until i get a phone number now.

Went out, didnt find many, found one opened and she turned out to be somewhat fat and also didnt give me much. Walked around for a long time, didnt find any i wanted to open and went home.

2. I’m at the department store, I see a 6-7 girl with dark hair and a complexion that made her look Italian or Middle Eastern. I was being half sarcastic and asked:

Me: Excuse me, but have you seen the section with the skinny jeans?
Her: I haven’t. I’ve been looking for skinny jeans too but can’t find them.
Me: Yeah, it’s a shame. You have an exotic look. You don’t look like your are from around here. Where are you from?
Her: I’m from Spain.
Me: I went to Spain and I loved it!

*We talk for the next couple of minutes*

Me: You seem cool. We should meet for a drink.
Her: Yeah, we should.
Me: What’s your number?

*I get her number and we talk for another 7 minutes*

Me: I got to go but we’ll talk later.
Her: See you.

Went on a date with this girl on Thursday (we met Friday) at a Spanish restaurant. We drank two bottle of wine and had tapas. Went to another bar and had more drinks. We make out at the bar. She's 100% into me. The date lasts for 6 hours.

I walk her to her place and say "can I use her bathroom?" but she refuses. I keep kissing her hoping to change her mind but she had some lame excuse about it being weird to bring some guy up because she has a male roommate and I presume she didn't want him to think she was a slut.

She offers to go back to my place. But I couldn't bring her back to my place because I have a girlfriend and didn't bother to clean up. If I bought the Spanish girl back she would've seen my girlfriend's clothes and hair all over the place. Moreover, I planning to bang Spanish girl at her place so she wouldn't leave evidence at my place for girlfriend to find out. I made up some lame excuse that my brother was staying with me. I think she knew I was lying.

She eventually went to her apartment and I went home. I texted her the day after but she wasn't nearly as enthusiastic. When you get that far and don't close it's game over. It will be damn near impossible to get her out again.

I relearned a lesson that I learned years ago: Bring a girl back to your place to close. Do not depend on the girl for providing a place to bang.

Now that I think about it, I have rarely banged a woman at her place. Even when I have been in relationships it has been rare I banged her at my place. It has always been my place. Probably because women these days are lazy and don't want to clean up after the bang.

Recent Approaches:

At the Whole Foods in the afternoon, to a 7 or so looking girl in the produce section

Me: Excuse me, do you know if there are any famers markets around?
Her: Yes, there’s one on X location at Y time on Z day?
Me: That’s good. I think the fruit here is expensive and not as good as quality as the farmer’s market.
Her: Yeah, I think they have better quality too.
Me: You don’t look like you’re from around her. Are you from Spain?
Her: Yes, I am Spanish.
Me: Oh, I have been the Madrid. It’s great there.
Her: Yes. Well, I hope you find your produce.

She wasn’t rude or mean, she just seemed to feel that since she answered my questions she could go back shopping. I seem to have a sixth sense for finding Spanish women.

Around 8:00 yesterday in front of a bar:

Me: Excuse me, do you know if this is a good bar?
Her: I don’t know. I’m trying to find X bar?
Me: Oh, it’s right there.
Her: Thanks!
Me: You have an accent. You must not be from around here. Let’s me guess where you are from?
Her: Ok
Me: Japanese (she’s clearly Caucasian)
Her: Really? (while smiling and laughing)
Me: Yeah, konnichwa!
Her: (while laughing) No I’m from Serbia
Me: Ah okay, are you just visiting?
Her: No, I’m here for X time doing Y activity.

We speak some more. We exchange number and have been texting since.

Today around 2:00 pm in the grocery store produce section. The girl was not hot but was bang worthy:

Me: Excuse me, do you know if there are any famers markets around?
Her: Yeah, I know there is X market.
Me: Have you tried their produce at all?
Her: No, I’ve just driven past it but my friends say that its good.
Me: Oh, where I’m from there are a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables around. I think the fruits and vegetables are expensive and not as good a quality
Her: yeah
Me: You don’t seem you're from around here. Are you from a small town?
Her: Yeah, I’m from X…

We continue talking and she provides information to me. She is clearly interested.
Instead, like a fool, I say “well, thanks for the information.” and walk away. She, looking somewhat disappointed, says “okay”. Lame on my part!

[papaiela]

I went to an upscale venue yesterday, the girls were pretty and more receptive (for the most part) than where I have been before. This is counter-intuitive.

I had one approach that almost killed my vibe at the beginning of the night. Me and my buddy approached this group of girls and started talking. I chat up one of them, make some jokes, everything is going well until she asks about my background.

As soon as I told her, she went to talk to her friend in the ear and ejected immediately. She was turned off. This is the second time something like this happened to me.

Right after this, I had my best approach of the night. I see this cute girl sitting by the bar with her friend and try to plan the approach with my buddy. While we were talking strategy, her friend goes to the washroom and I decide to go sit at her place.

I made some jokes, cold read her a bit and teased her, the discussion went on for a good 15 minutes. It was pretty good but I felt like the interaction died a bit at the end. My plan was to eject and re-open her after since it was early in the night. Bad idea since she found somebody else.. In retrospect, I think I should have tried to build some rapport and suggested to dance right away.

I opened few sets after but nothing happened. I was a bit intimidated by the girls they are just very classy and beautiful. I will be going back there soon.

[Libertas]

I've been focusing more on making money this year than approaching, so I'm not quite at the level that I was in 2014 and 2015. Also, for some reason, the girls just don't excite me as much as they did in previous years, and I just can't approach temperamentally unless I'm really into it.

Today however, might have been the turning point, saw much better talent outside.

Approach #1:

Hot redhead with a great figure, but it went nowhere.

Approach #2:

As I was about to head home, I saw an Asian chick walking slowly with another excellent figure. Sprung into action. It was lukewarm at first. I rambled about bullshit (where she was from, work, etc.) until I found something that hooked. When I mentioned that I'd written a book she got intrigued. I brought out my physical proof copy on "a subject matter you might not like" (said teasingly).

I didn't admit my support, but I talked about Trump's persuasion techniques. She was very intrigued. I told her to imagine things, etc. This stuff turned a lukewarm approach that could have gone either way to a very warm one. I walked with her for a long while. My frame was generally strong but could have been a bit better.

We'll have to continue testing it, but this talk about power dynamics, mentioning visuals, telling her to imagine things as a command, etc., seemed to work very well alongside the DHV.

One thing I didn't do was set up a compliance test, but nothing's perfect.

[BasketBounce]

Used Roosh's pet store opener to chat with a girl today. Turns out that she's a dancer.

I did fuck up though. I was so excited as I was getting her number that I didn't really look at her name. Called her by the wrong name as we were parting ways. Oops. In my defense, this was the second hottest girl I'd ever spoken with in my life [/shame]

I'll text her tomorrow. Or should I wait an extra day?

Going out tonight too so we'll see what damage I can do!

[Giovonny]

After dating a 19 year old for the past 5 months, I'm searching for my next girlfriend.

My girl went home for summer so I am searching for a new lover.

I'm a little rusty but its fun to work myself back into rhythm.

I'm 40, most of the girls I approach are 18-21.

I'm a 7, most of the girls I approach are 8s

This is hard but fun!

Giovonny I love you post so many rejections, I find it inspiring and on more than one occasion when deciding whether to talk to a girl have thought WWGD "What would Giovonny do?".

[Chetthebaker]

Went to a rock show the other night at a mid-sized club, mostly older crowd but sold out. My buddy's girl was picking him up so he leaves. Spot a cute young Asian girl making her way back into the crowd. Keep on eye on her for the remainder of the show, she's alone. Show ends I and I tail her til she goes into the bathroom. She's in there a long time and I camp out by the bar. She finally comes out and I trail her up the stairs and outta the club and she's asking subway directions, I catch up and we're walking side by side and then I open.
Me: they put on an awesome show eh
Her: yeah it was amazing blah blah
Me: how do you know about these guys
Her: well I love xxxxx band so my friend said I should check these guys out and blah blah blah

We keep walking (even though my car is right outside the venue) and she's carrying the conversation nicely. Going great. She mentions that she's incredibly stoned on edibles. We like the same bands. I let slide that I know the guy who runs the club and can get in free anytime. Eventually after 8 or 9 blocks she says "I think I walked past the the train."
I number close easily with a line about how we should see a show some time together.
She puts her number in my phone and hits call to call her phone. Good sign.
We say goodbye with a handshake and she asks me my name again.
I'm off and double back around to the club to hang and say bye to friends- pleased with myself for finding a cute chick at an old person rock show and swooping on her.

Next day I drop the number into Facebook. It brings up a married woman living in the Dominican Republic. Despite the NYC area code. I shoot a text, no answer.
I can't help but think this chick was so high she entered her own fucking number wrong.
That moment of number closing is always kind of fast and a little tense- like I'm trying to get it done with.
I don't think it was day bang, but there was some book or article, maybe Roissy, that suggested actually getting her to pick up her phone and having a funny conversation while you're standing there.
Next time, that...

She finally comes out and I trail her up the stairs and outta the club and she's asking subway directions, I catch up and we're walking side by side and then I open.
Me: they put on an awesome show eh
Her: yeah it was amazing blah blah
Me: how do you know about these guys
Her: well I love xxxxx band so my friend said I should check these guys out and blah blah blah

We keep walking (even though my car is right outside the venue) and she's carrying the conversation nicely. Going great. She mentions that she's incredibly stoned on edibles. We like the same bands. I let slide that I know the guy who runs the club and can get in free anytime. Eventually after 8 or 9 blocks she says "I think I walked past the the train."
I number close easily with a line about how we should see a show some time together.
She puts her number in my phone and hits call to call her phone. Good sign.
We say goodbye with a handshake and she asks me my name again.
I'm off and double back around to the club to hang and say bye to friends- pleased with myself for finding a cute chick at an old person rock show and swooping on her.

Next day I drop the number into Facebook. It brings up a married woman living in the Dominican Republic. Despite the NYC area code. I shoot a text, no answer.
I can't help but think this chick was so high she entered her own fucking number wrong.
That moment of number closing is always kind of fast and a little tense- like I'm trying to get it done with.
I don't think it was day bang, but there was some book or article, maybe Roissy, that suggested actually getting her to pick up her phone and having a funny conversation while you're standing there.
Next time, that...

Regarding getting the number, have you tried getting the girl to hand her phone to you and calling yourself from there? I got two numbers that way.

Walking down from little touristy view in L'viv I notice a girl with long black hair, half sleeve tattoo, and dope body. I walk fast to catch up with her and I see shes pretty hot so I ask her simply "Do you know which way the city center is?" She replies in perfect English so I then realize shes not Ukrainian. Shes from Canada so I make jokes about maple syrup, hockey and Molsen eh? We are both headed back to the center so I inform her I will be her bodyguard back into town.... the insta date last all day/night, we end up in strip club for a few hours around midnight before I take her back to my place and get the same day lay. I must say she was pleasant to be around and I had a lot of fun. I was leaving the city the following day and she was leaving the day after that. So our romance was short lived but still one I wont soon forget.

Before the Canadian me and my wing instadated a pair of 17 year old Ukrainian twins and a trio of Ukrainian college students that were no less then 8s.....


Thats one of the joys of opening strangers... you never know what can come of it.

Did about 15-20 approaches in the last week or two. Got about seven or eight phone numbers, one serious interest. Have one plate spinning for Tuesday.

I don't like posting here because all the guys front and talk shit. Nobody needs that kind of negativity, as game should be a search for love.

Did some nightclub approaches, which usually I suck at because I don't like the environment all that much. I find if I rein in my drinking to two or less I'm a lot more confident and level-headed. I hit on the girls who were just watching the dance floor, danced and got up close and physical, and one went well, we danced really close, kissed non-stop and she ground her pussy against my thigh. Couldn't find her again later, which was a downer, but I'm definitely getting better at this.

It's been about two months since I last posted. Been busy with summer classes. But today's approach was at the gym. I noticed this lightskinned girl. She came and started working out next to me and I had already planned on approaching her earlier, so it made it easier for me.

me: Hey, how are you
her: Good, wbu
me: good, you a student here
her: yea, just graduated
me: well congratulations, thats good,
her: yeah, hbu
me: Im about to be a junior in ME. haha
her: oh cool, do you like it
Me: yeah, lots of people dont really think its fun, but i like cars and genuinely enjoy it
her: well thats good
me: med school
her: I wassss, but then I decided PT
me: PT, whats that?
her: Physical Training
me: oh, haha cool.
brief pause
me: do you want to hang out with me later
her: haha yeah sure
Me: cool, me and my friends are having a kickback, let me get your number
her: oh, im going outta town
me: its cool, we can hang the week after
her: ok yea

Number close
Going to stay in touch
go from there.

I was at the gym, doing some pullups, when a sexy, curly-haired, hispanic girl with a fat ass comes up to use the cables beside me. She was working hard, and after finishing her set she dropped the weights and seemed to fall asleep on the station.

I don't usually run gym game, but just said "yeahhh! gettin it!" to see if she would respond...she pulled her headphones off and started talking to me. The approach went well, she asked for my name within 2 minutes, we chat about gym bullshit and are having a good time. Towards the end she was talking about how she usually puts up a "bitch shield" to keep guys from spitting game at her, and that all the guys were probably pissed at me for talking to her. Then I went for it:

RB: how pissed would they be if I asked to get a drink with you sometime
HB: ooooh I would like to...but I'm kind of talking to somebody right now
RB: not a boyfriend? just talking?
HB: well you know haha I would go with you but I believe in karma and don't want to mess up
RB: so you believe in karma, you know it'll be a good time.
HB: I don't know...
RB: OK how about this. I need to go do some dips. I don't have my phone on me. You take my number, text me if you want, if not, it's cool.
HB: OK

I actually didn't have my phone on me, and I wanted to get to my workout, so this was kind of a last ditch. Anything else I could have done differently? We were really vibing, she was probably nervous getting hit on in front of all these people.
