New to forum and pick-up. Advice?

I met this HB9, need advice on number-closing or anything.

Okay, that's it, I threw in a few negs, but I felt like I might have been too nice, I think I definitely had her attention though, which is good I guess.
Right now, I'm just trying to build up comfort/attraction... since I don' tknow her that well.
Anyways, what do you guys think?

First of all, welcome to the forum.

Second, there are no negs in there.

Third, SHE drove the entire conversation, not good.

Your input was basically "haha", "ha", "hahaha", "yeah", "ok", got the drift?

She did almost ALL the talking. You went with what and where SHE led you.

Yes, she showed interest, but whether that's genuine interest in YOU or not is impossible to tell at this point.

Have you read anything in this game yet? Such as Mystery Method or Rules of The Game? With the conversation above, YOU haven't built comfort, attraction, OR seduction. She could just drop you tonight and it would be no big deal AT ALL for her. You actually have to tell her YOUR thoughts, other than "ha" etc., and DRIVE the conversation forward. YOU need to lead the conversation and then ESCALATE the conversation.

At this point, with what's said above, the ONLY reason she could POSSIBLY have to give you her number is if she's serious about YOU TWO having a party, as she mentioned. You could say "give me your number so we can talk more about this and plan it ".

Okay, thanks Tripp.

I've read a lot of material, but most of it doesn't cover online game, although it's no excuse. I'll try to drive the conversation next time. I'm much better with face-to-face interactions and pickup.

I also f-ed up when I told her that 'she knew how to have a good time.' I definitely could have driven the talk from there... oh well. lesson learned.

Good that you're learning from it. That's a BIG factor in your ability to have success.

What part of NJ are you from? If you don't mind me asking. I used to live there myself. In a few different towns. Robinsville, Browns Mills, near Trenton, middle Jersey, a few towns I can't think of at the moment.

The Shore, Ocean Twp, Monmouth county, you've probably heard of Long Branch, which is about 5-10 minutes from here. Definitely gonna work on some game this summer

Cool. Do they have 18 and up clubs there now?

For online, you could try Action Jackson's stuff. He's posted some on here. He has a method called Matchbook Method.

Yes, they stamp you if you're under 21, or it may be the other way around. It's mostly for bars that host musical acts (The Stone Pony, for example).

I'll check it out, thanks.

I've actually been getting good at text game... but that's for another thread

Aahhh, text game, now that's fun

Yeah, I've written on that. I think that's in the Vault though.

Oh well. Here's a recent (very short) convo with another HB, i think I did much better with her.

Me


Can it be? 9:36pmStephanie


what? 9:36pmMe


yup, you're
actually online 9:36pmStephanie


hahah yeahh 9:37pmMe

let me see what
I can do to fix that 9:39pmStephanie


idkk lol i gtg sorryry
9:39pmMe


okay...
you owe me a
convo


----


Okay, she gives me IOIs in person, but she's never online.
If she wasn't so quick to log off I probably could have number-closed.

LOL, I thought on the first read through that SHE was wanting YOU to stay online. Now I see it's the other way, you were chasing her. Ok. If you're seeing her in person and she's giving you IOI's in person . . . why in the WORLD are you trying to get a number online? Just get it from her in person.

Haha, well... I'm in college, we have NO classes together (so I don't really see her), it's hell week (finals) and everyone's busy studying!
