Alright, since this has just been updated, I'll give you my experience. I'm a terrible person to initiate contacts. Lack of confidence is my problem, but it's getting more and more apparent I'm a stud so that's starting to go away.
Anyway, I just met this girl last Sunday. She works with my sister, and when she first saw me she had been bugging my sister on a daily basis to introduce me to her.
We go out and have a great time. I just strike up normal conversation with her and we talk about all sorts of stuff. I pick on her about some things in a joking manner, and she eats it up. What's really nice is there was no real awkward silence because it was a group get together. I brought her back to her car when the date was over and she asked if I wanted her number. I got hers and she took mine. I gave her a kiss (not a serious one) and a hug and was on my way.
I talked to my sister the next day and she said everyone at work was talking about me, cause this girl was saying how great I am and how she likes me. So my sister told me to call her that next day (which is against everything I've read before), but I did and it was great. We talked for like five minutes tops and I asked her what her schedule looked like for the upcoming week. She told me she had Saturday and then the following Wednesday off, so I asked her out for Wednesday, and she was like, "what about Saturday?" I work early Saturday mornings, so I didn't want to take any chances and have a shitty time being so tired. I told her about work and she was okay with Wednesday.
Anyway, I kept thinking about how I probably should see her for a little bit on Saturday at the least, just so she doesn't forget about me, so I called her yesterday (Wednesday) and talked for like fifteen minutes, ending with the proposal of lunch on Saturday after I get out of work. She was all for it and so I'm set to see her both days (After I asked her about Saturday she was like, "So what are we doing Wednesday?").
So that's where I stand right now. This isn't the typical way to pick up girls cause I had someone else help me out, but in my way of handling the dates and stuff, that's been explained here. So far everything has worked, although one thing I'm dealing with is over analyzing the situation. Man, it SUCKS when you have too much time to think about things, cause you end up killing your confidence. I'm building it back up to where it was so I *should* be okay, but we'll see. I'll know for sure Saturday if I want to keep things going with this girl.
Anyway, just decided to post up an "experience" for you guys to see. This players guide is a great tool to build off of, and not just because of confidence. Women play games just as much as guys do, so learn how to play it right if you want to be successful dating. Good luck.
