FR: AFC Field Report #1 - Skittles

[Skittles]

Alright, so I think I can definitely say doing pickup is... interesting =).

Friday night, after chatting up some random scrubs on GroupMe (J/k you guys aren't scrubs, I love you <3) I was convinced to head out to Lizard Lounge (because I am under 21 and consequently a scrub). After doing some research and getting spiffed up with my nicest pair of jeans and my leather jacket that I picked up from GoodWill for 20 bucks, fate was not in favor when I got a phone call. My bum dad was all like "hey, I need a ride. Kthnx-son-iloveyoubye". So yeah, there went my night.

A couple hours later, I was sitting on my couch thinking to myself "I hate my life, why do I suck so much" so I jumped in my 2010 Mustang (actually a beat up Montego) and went to Starbucks. I grab a latte topped with eternal sadness, and out of the corner of my eye I spot a girl who I see occasionally at my college. She was wearing an Aggies shirt, which I considered "okay" because they did good in football this year. After pulling the most AFC approach ever ( I literately didn't do ANYTHING cool or interesting ) I was finally able to get a positive response. We continued to chat about AFC stuff, like the weather, sports, life, my lack of a girlfriend, and after a good 15 minutes she had to go. I watched her walk out (she was pretty hot), but I didn't want to just watch another girl walk off. I ran up behind her and politely asked if she would like to hang out at Starbucks again. We exchanged numbers after she gave a "uh, okay" response, and I walked away feeling like a boss. (J/k my life is pathetic).

I texted her later that night, and to my surprise she responded. I wanted to find out what times she was available in the upcoming week, to which she said "I have been pretty busy lately. School has really been taking up a lot of time." I asked her what classes she was taking, and she said "I am taking 23 credit hours. The colligiate high school program is pretty tough". It was at this point that I made a giant facepalm.

Saturday - didn't do jack. He was busy. (lol, that was a joke. I'm not gay! >=O )

Sunday:
A while back some awesome dude (I think Voyager?) was kind enough to get me in contact with J-Fang. After some chit chat and banter, we said that we'd meet up later that week at NorthPark mall to do some daygame. Since I am underage (at this point in time), it looks like daygame is probably the best I am gonna get, so I put on my Sunday best (studded bracelet, swag necklace, my signature red-plaid button up shirt, and my best pair of jeans) and met him at Macy's. He was definitely more stylish than I was, wearing a brown v-neck sweater, a necklace with a flour-de-lei, and a pretty sweet spiked up hair-doo. I introduced myself and we made teh chit chat, and walked around getting warmed up. After talking to a children's store clerk ( shopping for new pants maybe? ) we walk around looking for targets. Or girls. Both? J-Fang spots a pretty good looking chick and then stops her dead in her tracks. They talked for a good 3 minutes before he divulged that she had a boyfriend, and then politely ejected. What a beast.

Thoroughly impressed with his skills, I watched him talk to another 3 chicks before we decided that Northpark was dead (probably because of the weather, or the football game). I hopped in J-Fangs kicking pimp-mobile and we bounced our way over to Mockingbird Station. After doing some direct approaches there, I did my first cold direct approach. I walked up to two females engaged in conversation. One of them looked like she had just got out of bed and threw on a t-shirt -- she was my target. After going up and introducing myself and throwing a light compliment, she looked to her friend with the "ohmygod, whoisthisloser" type look. Crushed but still alive, I continued to talk about small stuff like school etc. until it got so awkward that I physically ejected myself. Crap. It was probably one of the most embarrassing encounters I have ever had in my life, and all sense of pride was thrown out the window. But where that pride had been, it was now replaced with a sense of pure adrenaline. I could start loving this feeling.

I spotted J-Fang a meal at SmashBurger where we chatted about game and random questions I have had for a while about pick-up. After a long discussion about different types of styles along with technique and goals for getting into pick-up, we went out for one last shot. I spotted this tiny brunette/redhead walking out of the store and ran up in front of her to open. I gave her a compliment on her shirt, and didn't try to go for the continued conversation like I did last time. She was very shy and didn't really want to look at me after I got in front of her, but it was probably because she had never seen such a sexy person in her entire life and was re-evaluating her entire existence. Either way, that was approach number two and I felt a little better about not caring about what happens when you get blown out. Yay.

We went to Twin Peaks for a victory nachos, where we chatted with the waitresses who are all probably in the upper 90% of women in terms of attractiveness (btw, bit props to J-Fang for showing me this place. I had no idea what Twin Peaks was all bout until that night). After some prodding from J-Fang for me to engage one of the waitresses, I was able to strike up a conversation about this being my first time here and now knowing what "Twin Peaks" meant. She looked at me funny, but I smiled back and then continued to talk about how I liked her plaid shirt and had one just like it. I suggested we both become lumberjacks and live in a tiny cabin on the mountain, but she lol'ed and went off to serve the other customers. Drats.

So, overall I had a great time hanging out with J-Fang for the day. He was able to give me a lot of general knowledge I had been lacking and was also kind enough to hook me up with some PDF's of books that are the essentials for any aspiring PUA. Even though I got blown out on all of my sets (I wish I had done more) I still feel like I made a step in a positive direction. Next stop you may ask? Quite possibly Cowboys Arlington!

Stay tuned for the next segment of "AFC Field Report"

Good job, keep taking action

Good job putting yourself in the uncomfortable situation of talking to hot women as a newbie. After a little while it becomes comfortable and your on your way - opening becomes 2nd nature and you master it. Being a consistent closer becomes the new game.

Cowboys Arlington Wednesday night is a plan!!
