Day 79/360: Shopping with Drew

Drew and I go shopping at a small mall.

We walk by a hair extension booth and an ugly girl asks if I’m a member. I ask, “A member of what?” as I continue walking away. I notice one of the girls is really hot, and so does Drew. I have creative avoidance because she’s helping a customer. Drew asks, “So what?” He’s right. I circle the booth, looking at stuff to buy time. The ugly girl reopens me. Apparently I horse girled her a few weeks ago. I am unforgettable. We chat a little. The hot girl is free so I prod her for hair extension advice. She doesn’t give much back. Drew and I are bored so we leave.

We walk around the mall and come back. This time the hot girl is alone. I make her give me hair extensions again. Smart tests, smart/hot/rich. “Um, I don’t think I should answer that.” She says she shouldn’t talk to me because she’ll get into trouble with her manager, who is apparently spying on her through a security camera. I tease her again and when I walk up to her she smiles but says we really can’t talk. In retrospect I should have said, “Okay, let’s do our dirty talk in private. Give me your number.”

I walk around and the ugly girl reopens me again. She’s cool so I hug her. She tells me not to do so, her manager is watching and indicates that he’s looking down from the floor above. I respect that, so we just chat a little more. She asks me where we met again, and I tell her the name of the bar. We leave.

We walk by another hair extension booth and the sales girl is a hot blonde. Horse girl, not her, bye bye.

We discussed how hair extension booths always have hot sales girls. Then we went to another store we knew had hot sales girls.

Drew talks to one girl while I went for the manager. The manager was a tiny girl with a hat so I naturally pet her, which she hates. So I pet her some more. Chatted a little. Drew tells me to invite her to our show. I look at her, then reluctantly ask her for her number. She gives it. I pet her again.

I see a mom and daughter in the novelty section. I pick up a woman remote, point it at the mom, and repeatedly jam on the “get me a beer” button, saying it doesn’t work. She laughs, I say “I guess batteries aren’t included” and walk away.

I see a cute girl at the cashier. She’s just about done. I ask, “Do you like horses?” She says yes, but the cashier tells her to swipe her card again. She swipes the card and is busy getting her stuff. I command, “Are you paying attention?” She jumps and says yes. I finish horse girl but she goes back to her mom.

Two girls walking toward us. I stand in their way and stop them while doing horse girl. They are hooked but I let them go because they look really young. I just wanted to test how well I could stop two walking girls so I’m happy.

A girl in the build-a-bear workshop. Horse girl. I leave because she looks too young.

I go home and Nomad wants to go out. I shower and he has phone sex with a girl for hours. Ugh. We make it out to the rocker club at 1:00 a.m.

I go in and for some reason I am unmotivated and don’t approach anything for a few minutes. I recognize this and open a blonde, a brunette, and a guy. Horse girl, smart tests, get logistics. I pull Nomad in. An Asian girl I met a few weeks ago grabs my arm. I hug her and try to pull her into the group, but the blonde and brunette are talking to each other. I talk to the Asian girl for a few seconds. She seems to want to leave so I hug her and tell her I’ll see her later. The blonde and brunette both have to go to the bathroom.

I find the Asian girl and her roommate talking to a guy, so I talk to her roommate. We hug and I tell her she doesn’t fit in, that she should have a mohawk. The Asian girl blows out the guy and I tell her the same thing. The two girls chat with each other and leave me out so I backturn them.

A cute girl walks by me, cutting through the crowd. I hold her, horse girl, shedding cat. She smiles and walks away.

I see a girl standing by herself. I start horse girl but she’s hugging me already, so I switch to sex last week. It’s not her. She’s too drunk for smart tests so I just dance with her a little. She asks me to buy her a drink, then tries to be sly and tells me we should go for shots. I agree, then tell her, “You get the first round, I’ll get the next round.” She shoves me away and yells something at me. I laugh in response and walk away. She pulls me back and yells at me some more, I laugh again and walk away.

Nomad’s friend pointed out two girls that were opened earlier. I went in with horse girl. She challenges me midway, “Why are you telling us this?” I respond with, “I’ll tell you in a minute,” then continue. She interrupts midway and tells me she’s heard this line already and both girls tell me to fuck off, shoving me a few feet away. Now I’m in state! Unfortunately I don’t see anything I want to approach.

Nomad and I are sick of this place so we leave.

My day game is more solid but I ejected a lot due to the age factor. Creative ejection?

I was losing faith in my night game skills but that could be because I am still trying to approach with low state, rather than raising my state. This experiment is over — I can approach with low state. Now I need to work on increasing state quickly.

My sense of entitlement has turned into creative avoidance. I don’t want to approach ugly or fat girls so I don’t approach them girls at all. That’s not why I’m here.

Calibrating has me thinking a lot about which opener to use and how to say it. My horse girl was not blown out due to overqualification tonight, surprisingly.

I haven’t been shotgunning and my conversations feel short despite not being overqualified. I should try shotgunning routines again to see whether I get overqualified or not.

I’m working on too many things at once, all these variables are messing with my results. I need to go back to basics a little.
