2008-10-30: Approaches
I met up with Martyr. We hadn’t gone out together for a while. We went to our usual xyz spot, which had a Halloween theme going. AA. Damn our symbiotic relationship!
I saw two girls, went purely situational. Drink story. It hooked, but I felt that there was some preexisting relationship between the guys and the girls, even though the girls said they only knew each other. Strange. Anyway, he AMOGs me by telling a similar story. Martyr came in to wing me. I didn’t really care for either girl, perhaps that showed. I just wanted to push myself to open to be social and warm up. I was consciously touching her shoulder, but not much more. In retrospect perhaps I should have upped the kino. I was really nervous, though. Martyr noted that my hands were waving around all over.
Went to another bar, still had AA. Didn’t see anything.
Went to a lounge. Walked around for a bit, didn’t see anything. Finally decided to approach a girl, horse girl. She asked where I was from, I told her to guess. She didn’t. I told her, she said she’s from Jersey. I teased her for being a Jersey girl, then went into reckon yonder. Kinoed, but I felt attraction waning. I’m fairly certain I did my drink story at some point. Anyway, I was running out of steam but they decided to go get a drink after a while. Oh well.
On the street, I saw a girl hailing a cab. Horse girl, walked away while I was in the middle of it.
Martyr and I passed by three girls trying to cross the street. I went back, horse girled them while they were still waiting for the light. As soon as the light changed, they started walking. I walked with them a little bit, but they evaded me. In retrospect I could have tried the Rodman technique to block them, but Martyr doubted that I could block all three.
Back at our usual spot, we were just chatting when I heard my name. Goth girl #1! She said she had to catch her train, but that we’d catch up after Halloween.
We went to a bar. On our way in, I saw two girls trying to get in, but were held up by the bouncer. One was tall and really cute, even with her mask on. Martyr and I got in first. I waited until they were going into the bar, then horse girl. The tall girl was courteous, the shorter not so courteous, but didn’t pull her friend away. I was able to finish horse girl but soon after they backturned me.
We went to a bar near my place. Mostly I was showing him the bar, I didn’t really see much there. We left.
On the street I spotted a girl crossing the street and walking toward us. Rodman technique, horse girl, rotate to 90 degrees. She denied that she was the horse girl, but she was still playing along, and seemed hesitant to leave. Drink story, kino. I tried to transition into smart tests, “You’re cute. But are you smart?”, to which she responded, “No, but I have a boyfriend.” I told her about my eight girlfriends, but she caught me off-guard by saying something about a ninth girlfriend. I should not have left, she was interested, but I pretty nervous and the whole boyfriend thing was in the back of my mind. Anyway I let her go, and she mentioned something else about the horse girl forgiving me.
We saw two girls pass us from behind, who looked really cute from behind. It turned out they were going to the same bar we were, but the shorter one was on the phone. Good, the taller one was much hotter anyway. Horse girl, not her, they walk away from me.
For the majority of the night, except for the one who had a boyfriend, I had forgotten to embody the spirit of the bully. I need to remember to do that!
