| Subject: House Parties and why you should start the night with them Tue Apr 01, 2008 1:14 am | |
| Let's talk about a little phenomenon that I go over in "Explode Your Influence"...
The social secret of house parties...
If you haven't figured it out yet... I LOVE going to house parties... especially to start out the night.
And here's why:
1. You're already on the same level socially with all of the women there... which makes it easy to talk to people because you already have a few common things to talk about.
2. Since it IS easy to talk to these people... you get to "warm up" with the warm contacts and get in a bit of a groove before you go out.
3. Many house parties are just meant to be get togethers before most everyone else leaves to go have more fun. Therefore, if you meet a group that's pretty cool... you may be asked to tag along with them... which already gives you a fun social circle to build your night off of.
Here's how this works...
Last night... I was invited to a party by a female friend of mine...
Now, if you've read any of my blog posts, you'll see that I really don't mind going out or to parties by myself.
In fact, I'd almost rather do so...
But that's not what this is about.
So I go to the party and my friend is introducing me around (which is VERY easy since I'm by myself, plus... only one name to remember) to the group that's there.
Now, I'm actually impressed with the quality of women that were there and I think to myself... "Tonight will be one of those nights I'll be able to write about..."
I get talking to this one woman and we start exchanging stories about traveling and pushing the envelope a bit with the flirting when one of her friends comes up to her and says "I'm bored... let's go somewhere else".
And the friend immediately says, "That sounds cool... (looks at me) do you want to go with us... you'll have to behave because it'll be you and a bunch of crazy women"
"It sounds like it's you guys that are going to have to behave... I can't have all of you jumping me at once. Can you handle it?" I tell her...
Here's the cool part... I'm out at the club with a group of 5 women (social proof that I'm cool)... and I see other people out that I've met before...
So what do I do... I introduce everyone together... (more social proof for me) and walk away to find someone else to meet...
Now, each of these groups see me talking to someone else... and naturally ASSUME that I know them too (which I don't)...
I'm now viewed as someone important to everyone around.
And... of course... that just makes it easier to talk to even more people.
Do you see how this starts to cascade?
Exactly... never let an opportunity pass where you can expand your social circle... never... ever.
It's the best INVESTMENT you'll ever make.
Until next time,
