A little better!

It happened just like that. She told me she had a boyfriend, I'm like "alright, cool" and I ejected.

This works, try it:

HB: "I have a boyfriend."
Me: "Good, I'm gay. I was really concerned you were hitting on me so you can imagine my relief. We're a match made in heaven, you've got a boyfriend and I want one. Now we can go shopping, get manicures, undress in front of each other, cuddle...we're going to be best-friends!"

They almost always don't believe that you're gay and almost always later admit that they don't actually have a serious boy-friend. Just a couple of boy toys or prospects.

Don't eject because you showed her your cards, now she's positive you were hitting on her. She might have a friend that she can introduce to you. She might just be giving you a shit test. Don't eject, stay a little longer then move on if you still aren't getting anywhere.

OK I see what you're saying. So it's kind of like I'm flipping back in to an "indirect" mode - cause I went in super direct and I think my intentions were pretty well known to her.

Actually that part went well. Where I fucked it up was I tried to number close too fast, I should have qualified a little bit first to make the attraction more comfortable/genuine and maybe I wouldn't have gotten the boyfriend objection.

But after it was blown and I had gotten the boyfriend objection, I totally 100% agree that I should NOT have ejected, and I like the "gay" routine as a great way to bypass it, buy myself a little time, and tried to close again later.
