A great initiator, not a very good striker.
Yesterday I went with a housemate to the Mardi Gras 2013. It's kind of a lame event. You stand with thousands of people along a street and watches thousands of dressed up gay people passing by. Oh well lacking better things to do a Saturday night why not.
Anyway after the gay parade stuff we went to a pub. Not the best most posh or fancy one but the cheapest one. Apparently reasonably priced drinks are high in demand a Saturday night so the place was crammed with people. Once inside the pub my housemate showed his great skills as an initiator and conversationalist, as he time after time managed to get conversations started with girls that did not seem that much into us.(My targetting sensors read nothing) anyway every time as he went to the bathroom or whatever the girls asked me the same question "Are you his partner?" and then they left upon realisation that I am not.
Oh well my house mate explained his methodology with some kind of game theory that women does not appreciate men who too obviously are there to pick them up. I have heard this theory before and even though it would seem strange to actually spend all that time and money on make up clothing and drinks to not get any it's after all women so everything is possible, Needless to say it's a bit too indirect if you speak to a woman for 30 minutes and it turns out she stayed all that time cause she thought you were gay?
As for myself I did get motivated by hanging out with someone who actually managed to speak to people instead of crampingly sitting in a corner refusing to speak to anyone claiming that life is pointless (No one mentioned no one forgotten) Sadly neither my initiation or finishing was top notch so all I managed was to get some seemlingly useless numbers. From various scientific sources it always better to get some numbers just for the sake of not going home empty handed. The best move of tonight was when I spoke to a woman and some guy she had spoken to before left her a note with his number. When the other guy left I asked for the note and upon receipt I just throw it behind my shoulder. Needless to say I lost her a bit later along the way but It could have been a classic move..:)
