The girl should be excited by talking with me (she shall be if she is interested). There is no need for fancy routines or anything elaborate, the perfect pickup is a myth, basic getting to know each other stuff works perfectly fine. The valuable thing is me and getting to know me, not me being a master talker. I like to think of it this way, if a homeless person came up and asked me “hey, where’d you get that shirt?” as opposed to Elon Musk, my level of enthusiasm in the conversation would be different. I noticed this one time in college, I talked to a girl and she gave me a short answer then went silent and stopped looking at me, so I went and sat a couple of tables over and then her friend showed up and asked her the same exact thing: “how are you doing?” and her response was completely different (she got all animated, stopped what she was doing, and started laughing even though what she said was not funny). When I am out, me just talking to the girl should open her up and if it doesn’t, I move on. In the beginning of my journey, I put a lot of pressure on myself to make it happen, as a measure of my manhood in a way, it hurt a lot when I would fail and my mind would be racing all the time trying to think of what to say, but eventually after having positive experiences, I started to notice that if the girl is interested, she contributes because SHE IS INTERESTED TOO; it is a two-sides pickup process. There is still something to be said about signaling, the way she shows interest and escalates, her role in that as opposed to mine is different, but my main point in this post is: there is no need to try so hard, it is incongruent and makes it difficult for the girl to participate if I am dropping multi-stack routines on her when all she cares about is us getting to know and initiating physical communication with each other. If she is not showing interest in basic getting to know each other conversation, not looking at me, and other basic fucking emotional and physical shit that people do when they’re excited by a conversation, like the convo between those two girls I mentioned, I move on. She doesn’t have to be doing backflips, but I am sure you guys get what I am saying, I pay attention to how her body is reacting to me and how it manifests in her level of interest in getting to know me and make my read on her from there.
