posted on: mASF forum: Field Reports Discussion, February 2, 2005I only have one real incident to report from tonight.
I saw a three set: one guy, two girls. The girls were hot, high calibre. The
dude was solidly in the set and appeared to know the girls from before tonight.
I couldn't think of a situational, and I felt that I had to open. I went in
with my back-up opener: what's hotter piercings or tattoos.
HB1: "neither"
HB2: "neither"
AMOG: amogging look on his face as if to say 'that's an absurd question'
OK, that opener bombed. I forgot that it doesn't work so well in the classier
Marina District.
But, I'm a PUA. I'm not going anywhere. However, my state is broken, and I
can't really think of anything to say.... "uh... so, what's been going on
tonight?"
"uh... so how do you all know each other?"
One girl is in a good mood and answers my questions. She says they are step
brothers and sisters. Possible lie?
So, the guy turns to me: "ok, we're set, man. You can go now."
Me: "yeah."
Me: "anyway, so... uh... you guys having fun tonight?..... wow, you're like
dancing, yeah?"
My body language and words came off super cool and relaxed, but on the inside
I'm thinking "oh shit."
I'm not used to being confronted by AMOGs like this. And, the result is that I
couldn't think of any material to spit out. I just went into boring convo
mode.
The dude continues with his thread: "we're set here, man..."
The girls turn away to talk to their friends. I'm still just chillin'.
But, I realize that this will be near impossible to turn around from this
point, especially with my state broken. So, I get the girls attention and
announce that I'm going to leave.
The guy continues on: "yeah, why don't you just get out of here."
I turn to him and I say "aww... that's so cute. This guy is just like my
little brother. Wow.... is he your little brother?"
HB: "yes."
Me: "aw... that's so cool. Ok, have a good night." backturn, walk off.
Anyway, the set got my adrenalin pumping, but in retrospect the girls opened up
fine and I could have just kept talking with them. I gave too much importance
and too much attention to the AMOG. In reality, it was not nearly as intense a
situation as it seemed like at the time.
*pat on the back* for staying in the set and remaining (at least outwardly)
unshaken. That is after all the sticking point that I am working on right now.
