That's a great idea, we could create a whole new forum section for these!

wrong, going too far in dire situations can bode poorly if other girls observe it, plus you're wasting time

"[H] ♂ vs ♀ @ Church

Hello guys, here's a rep of me vs a girl I tried to play while at church.

Rep

I went for the standard 1 balls 2 hormones rush while containing her at her seat. I had some really good eye micro, but that apparently wasn't enough to win her =( she then sent morpher a mom which stared at me with greater vocal and eye micro, I had to retreat to my seat to relieve myself from such harrass.

The conflict went on for a while, but as you guys know it is really hard to go vs ♀, pro stats say ♀ > ♂ 95% on that map, no wonder, that shit's too imba! I mean, there's always a lot of critters blocking the way and also a bunch of narrow chokes. Besides, you don't want to go to the center of the map as it is literally a no man's land; imagine a sieged preacher shooting at you from the high ground you can't get to.

In the end, she got enough resources to launch a final father attack on me. I just couldn't do anything to stop it, I just don't know what to do when you can't deal with such an overpowered unit. Only times ive heard others have successfully (not stopped but) calmed the father attack down was with the perfect execution of the so common Lie BO, in which you do such a good "Fake Professional" (FP) BO and he falls for it.

Any suggestions?"

So I'm not an awkward guy by any means, nor do I have problems talking to females but when it comes to approaching girls I haven't met before during everyday life my rank is D. I have no problems initiating conversation if I have a reason to, or if I am in a situation where I am expected to (meet + greets, smoker events, etc); what I find difficult is approaching girls randomly in public. Anyways I realized that avoiding this aspect of meeting new girls means I lose out on like 80% of potential encounters (made-up statistic), so I decided that I would need to improve this skill at once. I then had the idea that I can analyze what I am lacking and how to improve it, similar to how I improve my starcraft game. Here are my findings:

As with starcraft, raw practice will help you improve, but going in with an idea of your strengths and weaknesses and focusing on improving one thing at once really helps. In this case I will focus on initiating contact with girls that I don't know.

I want to go in with a gameplan, but I don't want it to be planned out to the line. If I don't go in with one or two things to talk about, I may run out of things to say and that potentially leads to awkward silence - pretty much gg. If I overplan to the point where I have a speech BO, it doesn't allow me to adapt based on where it the conversation is going, and I could screw up the BO or forget something, especially since my rank is D. I pretty much want to have two or three general ideas floating around, and can tech switch at any time based on the flow of the conversation.

Scouting is important - it allows me to develop a gameplan based on available intel. Eg: @ the grocery store - browse the same items and ask for her opinions on a brand, @ the library studying - ask some questions on the subject of whatever textbook she has open.

In some cases, a hot girl will pass you on the street and there will be no time for scouting. In this situation you may choose to utilize a rush tactic - an established,often cheesy way to get and hold their attention quickly. Beware though, many girls are wary about this and can smell your cheese from a mile away. Girls practice against this strategy the most.

hmm...

Guess this might work for you too:

You have to look vulnerable to them.
Pretend you are REALLY shy and make it look like "I could not miss this opportunity to talk to you".
I've picked up a girl in the elevator before with this tactics...
Got her number and we got out on the same night to a bar.

It works!
They won't think you are a "player" because you are shy and vulnerable!
