1. I opened a single target at a bar the other night and got about 5 minutes into the conversation when she mentioned at some point she taught 8th grade math at a school. A dude about 10ft away at the bar still getting his drink screams, "Hey!!...did you just say your a teacher?!!". We both turned our head toward the guy while he's at the bar and then he came running in trying to game away my target since he was a teacher also. He came in with strong energy and eye contact trying to position me out the set. My initial thought as soon as it happened was to walk away and just find another chick but there was a voice in me that said to stand your ground and win the battle. So I spun around re-positioning my body language and forced the guy to talk to me, which he slightly acknowledged my presence then redirected things back to just him and the target. He wasn't giving any gap for me to get in so I ran my arm up between them and spoke loud to get in and made the target talk to me again. Before you knew it the battle was on and she looked as though she was watching a tennis match individually talking to both of us and my voice and his was getting louder to see who would break. I put him on the spot real quick with an opinion question I asked her and he gave up and split. After it was over and i got a number close from the girl, she was hoping she would see me later that night she had said. So lesson learned - stay in the set and win the battle.
The story below is better:
2. I was at the TMAC tonight and saw a two-set sitting at an outdoor table watching the basketball game. I moved in with an observational opener and started my routine. About 5 minutes in, this tall 6'-4" or so drunk skinny dude with rocker hair comes outside from the bar staggering, and literally staggers over to our table and ask if the 4th chair at our table was taken. He said he was just out to smoke a cigarette. I was in mid-set with my target girl but could overhear him speaking to the side. The other girl tells the guy the seat's not taken so he sits down. He heard me talking and seen how I was acting I guess so his first loud words after sitting down are, "Hey am I witnessing this guy trying to pick up two girls here? wow, I need to watch this!!! " ...the girls laugh like crazy in reaction to his comment. I told the guy, "yes I am. Watch and learn". He trys to pound me down saying, "just be a honest pussy and tell these girls they're beautiful and you came to this table because you want to f**k them. You nothing but a shy prick. Do you even have a passion for anything in life? ".
