Monday night.
I had opened 5 sets, which didn't really go anywhere, and I was just talking to my wing. I see this girl with one of the cutest smiles I had seen all night, dancing in a circle with her friends. She had the type of face that you could just make out with all night. Brunette, tanned skin, nice eyes - my type.
At first, I couldn't get the balls to approach. The place was really loud, so I didn't think opening up the circle would work that well (I'm working on my vocal projection). After around a minute, I tell myself to grow a pair, and walk towards the circle, through her friends, stand in front of her (with a smile), and say "Hi."
Pause.
"I think you're fucking sexy, and I had to meet you."
I get the *deer in headlights* look. I take her hand and move it upwards so that our palms are touching around shoulder height. "What's your name?"
Exchange names, and she asks "Where are you from?"
"Guess."
"India?"
"No. What do you think my ethnicity is?"
Blah blah.
At this point I turn her around and take a few steps backwards so my back is against the wall and she's no longer facing her friends. I pull her closer to me, and we're holding hands.
Then, she cold-read me. Hehe. "Are you a teacher?" I find out later that she thought so because of my glasses.
I find out a bit more about her (i.e. what she does, talk about family, the friends she's with, and this let's me SOI her on things other than her looks.).
Then I go "I'd kiss you right now, but your friends are watching."
"No, you can't kiss me!"
We continue talking, (I find out she likes to travel, which is cool), and I qualify, although at this point my qualification is still light , so it wasn't that great. We exchange numbers at this point. Also find out her logisitics - she was the *designated driver.*
"Hey, it's really loud here, let's go outside for a few minutes." Take her hand, and just walk.
Outside, I become sort of quiet since I wasn't really sure what else to talk about. So I run my hand through her hair, triangulate, and go for the kiss.
I wanted to leave soon since it was pretty late, so after a few minutes, I take her back inside to her friends.
On the way home, I text her "Hey, cool meeting you tonight Smiley M." and she replies with "It was really nice meeting you too!"

Takeaways:
1 - Definitely need to work on my qualification game. Because this was different than how I usually run my sets, it was really obvious to me that I need to start working on larger qualification hoops.
2 - Grow balls! Going this direct in a club, by just walking through the group, was really fun. I'm going to try doing this once a night.
3 - More sexual framing. Some of the convo was *platonic,* but the kino helped make my intentions clear (I think. We'll see Smiley
