Kyrsx,
A'ight, man, you haven't been here long. I'm gambling on the fact that you have
an intelligent writing style and you remind me of a younger myself... so don't
let me be wasting my time here, 'kay, bro?

Not a bad first paragraph at all ;)
Good way of thinking.

Very good so far. You've got the makings of someone who can succeed, bro.
You're already taking action, which is good. The way you opened wasn't bad
either... I'd nix "look like somebody I know" in the future, but the rest of it
is really killer: Almost verbatim what I've seen repeatedly generate kickass
results.

Hmm...
"The Guide"... is... umm... not so good, dude.
There's definitely some good stuff in there to get started with, but whatever
you do, DO NOT take it as gospel. Some of the stuff in there is downright
wrong.
Truth be told, I think mirroring actually does work, but it takes far, far too
much mental energy for me to do, so I don't do it. If you enjoy doing it or it
comes easily to you, go right ahead and do it- but it's not critical.

Kino is good, keep it up. Basically, touch her when it feels comfortable for
you to do so, and when it's no longer comfortable, stop touching. Do what YOU
want.
Anyway, this being your first outing, you're already kicking some hardcore ass,
man. I'd say that if you didn't sit down, you could've sat down ASAP and it'd
have made it easier for you, though.

Don't worry about her state fading in the beginning. Just keep trying to enjoy
yourself.
Don't worry if SHE'S bored, worry if YOU'RE bored. If you're bored, do
something else or try to not get bored... Women are pretty perceptive, and if
you're having a good time, it's usually not too hard to bring them into having
a good time with you.
>She replied with, "We'll meet

>I conceded....
Dude, I've heard this shit so many times. I still hear it on occasion.
No big deal, at all. In the future, you can try pressing th issue if you're so
inclined, but if you don't, that's okay too. Just remember to keep getting out
there and ENJOY YOURSELF! If you're enjoying yourself anyway, you're GUARANTEED
to be successful at this... since it's enjoyable.
>This i think was my big

>Should I have persevered/acted

Hmm.
You could've persevered. Acting actually offended (as opposed to
sarcastically/mock offended) wouldn't have gotten good results.
As for shit tests... it's not a cut and dry thing. For me, though, a shit test
is basically an opportunity a woman gives a man to show he's the real deal.
That way, she can know straightup if he's worth it or not.
People don't realize that shit tests aren't meant to kill guys so much as to
give them an opportunity to rise up... and if the guy doesn't rise, she'll know
that it was okay and she did the right thing.
Had you powered through, it might've worked. Might not've.
But... it doesn't really matter. There's still 3,999,999,999 women on Earth
left for you to vibe with, and it's not even blown with this current woman on
the off chance you run into her again.

Motherfucker, if you stick with this, you are going to go FAR!
If you're enjoying the interactions, staying positive and confident, and liking
yourself, you are guaranteed success.
>Any comments?
Yeah, dude: STICK WITH THIS! Keep getting out there and trying stuff. When you
do get a girl, don't settle for her... you can keep her, but keep getting other
girls at the same time: Don't fall into the trap of settling for one girl as
soon as the opportunity arises.
In the meantime, keep getting out there and having fun. Be *very* careful
reading on here... don't take ANYTHING as truth until you test it yourself.
Even the best guys post WRONG things. Myself included, dude, probably half of
my earlier postings are downright crap.
But, hey, you've gotten started. You've got all the resources you'll ever need
available to you here, and you've got the right attitude to use them. Keep
getting out there, and keep posting what happens to you when you get out there.
Asking questions is cool, but take all the responses with a grain of salt until
you test them in action yourself.
Keep enjoying yourself. That's critical, and the key to all success in pickup.
Best of luck, brotha. I'll be waiting for the killer stuff to be coming out of
you in no time ;)
