Bro are you in Los Angeles as well? It was raining here as well. If you are in LA and need an extra push with your approaches I can help you out. Approaching to me is easy and I can help you read body language on both yourself and the girls you approach. If you need me to record video of tour approaches so you can look back at it and reflect on moments you did well and moments you could have improved then I can help you out wth that as well. I'm trying to get all the LA members to meet up so we can all help each other out.

@ LA savage I'm central coast,but that would be cool, If you head up this way we could go approaching. I'm going to visit a friend at UCLA in a few weeks and we could approach then.

I'm on campus and see a Swedish girl with an enormous ass. We chat for a while then I go to get a coffee.
I'm come back and decide to go for it.

I ask how she likes working on campus and what city she came from. Turns out she's half Bosnian. After talking for a bit I move over closer and tell her to put her number in my phone.
Meeting for coffee.

I'm with a friend and we spot two Chinese students sitting in the cafe. We slide over and pull up a chair, we talk about china and how the like it here. It sort of falls through so we bounce on them.

We head to a busy part of town and we're approaching like mad men.
I spot a thick (not fat) chick smoking a cigarette.

Me: you have another one of those?
Her: sure
Me: so, what're you up to?
Her: blah blah just got off work at X bar
Me: oh my friend works there, do you know xxxxxx?
Her: yes, I'm meeting her later
We talk for a bit and I get her number.

Having a field day tomorrow, will post more.

UCSB is way too far to travel down to now since it's getting close to the end of the academic year and midterms and finals are in progress.

When you come down to UCLA defintely hit me up.

I'm going to be at the quarterly UCLA Undie Run which is epic every time I go. Half Naked Bitches everywhere plus make outs are very easy and opportunities to pull a same night lay is increased tremendously..

My avatar is a picture from the last UCLA Undie Run I went to which was a lot of fun.

good work Mr Finish, hope you can keep it up.

Great approaches and lines, keep up the good work.

Thanks for posting.

Post: #35

I'm out approaching with another forum member at a shopping mall in camarillo outlets.

#18 I see a hot blonde working.
Me: how much is this coat?
Her: 400
Me: oh do you get commission?
Her: no hah
Me: good, I thought you were going to start swearing me! You like it?
Her: it looks good
I buy it and on my way out I say "you're cute, we should get together this weekend
Her: I'd like to but I have a boyfriend
Me: is he as sexy as this? (I say gesturing towards myself with the new coat on)
Her: haha well maybe just coffee or something
Number close

#19 I spot a group of hot German girls, I open them
Me: where are you girls from?
Hamburg
Me: cool, my grandfather was from cologne
We talk about how people aren't as outgoing in Germany and they were impressed with my display.
I turn to the hottest one
Me: its your last night here, how about we make it memorable? There are some great places to grab a drink around here. I smile at all her friends. They seem willing but the hotty is ambivalent.
Her: I have a fiancée back home
Me: what's he have to do with me?
Her haha I know but I wouldn't want to do something I'd regret
Late

#20 I see 2 hot latinas, one with an enormous rack, I engage.
It turns out they're from Colombia.
I tell them my family has a condo in Bogota. the finer of the two doesn't really know English so I bring my friend over to translate. I get her number and everything is going fine until their huge party of 8 rolls up. I number close and excuse myself.

I'll post the rest later

@ LA Savage
I'm down dude

Post: #37

Great attitude and frame when opening girls. You are opening groups of 2 in daygame so don't give yourself too hard of a time for not opening in crowded areas. After a while, when you are consistently opening, you'll get to a point where you don't give a fuck who is watching but it takes a while.

I like how you don't let California bitches shake your frame, keep it direct, and open in an amused and confident way - it's not easy to pull off.

Couple of tips:
- seems like you got the looks and style is on pointe. Since you already have some attraction built in when you open, qualify them a bit...ask questions that put them on the defensive...not like "where are you from"...more like "do you own anything beside ugg boots?" In a teasing way while smirking. Remember - you are choosing, they are possible candidates.

- don't bounce immediately after the number. Keep talking for 5-10 minutes...develop a mini connection so she has an emotional response when you text, don't just machine gun number close. If you have time, try instadates and up the intent...see where it goes. If you are out at night and get interest from hot girls do not be satisfied with kisses or numbers.

Other observations:
- don't let losers who jump into your approaches bother you. There are tools who sit and marinate for hours trying to open a chick and immediately jump in soon as you open because they feel a deep, intense loss of investment. Just casually make fun of it..don't make a big deal of it...just enough for the girl to know and 'subconsciously agree' and hence disqualify the sitting Buddha.

- always, always open with a sense of humour and tease. Teasing from a position of amused confidence generates attraction.

- read Travesty's approach diary (Santa Barbara approach diary) for tips on follow through. Coincidentally you are in somewhat in the same area. Also - document your follow ups with these numbers so we can enjoy your ROI as well (dates, meet ups etc).

- watch some James Marshall videos on YouTube. I think he is the most mature day gamer I've watched. He builds attraction without being a fucking clown. Watch how he slows down the daygame interaction.

Keep rockin'. Sounds like you are a young, good looking kid living in an area with a surplus of lovely, young hotties. You are living in a generation of tinder and immediate sex gratification. Take advantage.

Post: #38

Thanks LAX. I have been meaning to work on getting girls to qualify themselves to me but sometimes I just get caught up in the interaction. Install dates are something I'm going to be shooting for more.

#21 I see a cute red head with glasses, my feet start moving in her direction
Do you know where the theater is?
Her: yes I'm on my way there now
I convince her to sit with me for a minute and talk but her boyfriend pops up, I shake his hand, wink at her, and walk off.

#22 we're now in Ventura.
I don't have my ID on me and its night game time, so I'm limited to the clubs that let me in on appearance alone.
My friend is scoping a club and I'm in a wine bar nursing a Cabernet. I wave the bar tender over.
Me: I'm just passing through, I'm wondering what clubs are hot out here. She rattles off a list, then asks where I'm from, I say xxx, which is a dhv. We talk about how she came out here from the south and she's trying to live the cali lifestyle, I say she hasn't been missing much.
I say I'm coming back in a few days and that she should go out with me after Thanksgiving. I get the number and we talk about wine until my friend, Mr steal yo girl, shows up. He's a new member, hasn't posted, but he's eager and has done plenty of cold approaches.

#23 I get into this cougar bar. We were immediately pounced on like we were salmon in grizzly bear territory.
I go out to the smoker section, a group of cougars open me. We're all having a good time and I barely have to speak, this is a nice change of pace. One of them asks me to buy her a drink, I smile and say I would but I believe in equality. She asks me what I'd like to drink and I tell her bulleit burbon, which she promptly returns with. We decide we can do better so we can the numbers and bounce.

#24 I see some hot young girls inside a Starbucks.
Me: (after being told they won't give me a cup of water) I turn to this cutie. How your night going?
Her: good, nice coat.
Me: thanks, you go to school around here?
Her: (some high-school)
Me: uhh, how old are you?
Her after a pause: 16
Me: damn, gotta go hah

#24 I step outside and see a fucking hot milf, like a Katie couric type, with a gross Friend.
My pal and I open about what they're up to, and they're just home for the holidays catching up. We get into a brief political discussion, and she says something bad about Trump. I don't see this going anywhere so I go on a mild mannered tangent explaining why trump will win, or god help us.
She says she has a daughter near my age. I tell her to take a pic of me and send it to her asking "wyb" she starts laughing. I go in for a kiss, get a peck, she doesn't want to give me her number so I eject.

#25 we go into some night club that is, for lack of a better word, ratchet. There's a few bottles but the guys are so bummy it makes us uncomfortable. We're outside and we open a set of girls that are feeling us. We're doing fine until my friend gets the number and an inebriated boyfriend grabs my friends phone and tried deleting the number (he ends up saving it hah) then he gets in my friends face. I tell him to settle down and lock eyes with him. He grumbles "check your boy" and sits down. The vibe is ruined so we go back inside I see a few transgenders and my wing and I mutually agree to get the fuck out.

Post: #39

Mr. Finnish, your approach journal is awesome. It seems attraction is established earlier on through your looks and when your wit comes across its game over. Would love to read some of the follow up with the cold approach leads. Keep progressing!

Post: #40

Thanks wrighter, I have some updates and new approaches to add, but I've had some health problems the past two weeks and have been taking it easy. A lot of these approaches were out of town to work on my technique, applying what I've learned on the forum. I live in a small city so it's easy to overkill a spot, hence the break. I do plan on hitting the local colleges this week hard and I'll appreciate all feed back. Hopefully I'll make it down to LA after Christmas and work on tightening my game with LA Savage

What up bro. I see you out there still trying. I respect your commitment to follow up on your approaches.

Definitely hit me up when you're ready to link up and game together in LA.

I will push you hard to do more direct game to get results faster and not be afraid of escalating from 0-100 real quick.
I will demonstrate how to have an abundance mentality and always be replacing these hoes not chasing them.

I will show you how making getting girls numbers and kissing them/making out with them doesn't mean shit until you finally have sex with them.

I will show you how to be relaxed when doing approaches even when others come into cockblock you. I will show you how to open up sets of girls while remaining confident.

I am so amped up. I can't wait till finals and the holidays are over so that everybody can get back to gaming consistently. Be strong bro.

Post: #43

Did about 15 approaches yesterday and filmed a few, will be posting the footage later.

Post: #44

Hey fellas, my friend has more footage that im going to get him to edit and blue the faces out, in light of all the new guests and exposure rvf has been recieving. Might be heading out solo tonight but I'll be sober so I'll count the approaches.

Post: #45

Looking forward those vídeos, from what we read.
Kudos.

Post: #46

Haven't been posting as much because I've been running more night game, but I recently stopped drinking so I'm back full time day gaming. Just got day game and it made me realize that, while I do get a lot of number, I drastically get less dates than when I go indirect. I'm usually cocky to a fault, and I've paid for that.

I'm walking down the street and see a girl with a small dog. She's not my type but my friend says to just do the approach to warm up so I dive in.

Me:nice dog

Her:thank you

Me: what kind is that? I'm pretty sure my grandma has the same one (lie)

Her: Australian Shepherd! Just got her blah blah 2 minutes of ramble that goes over my head.

Me: I'm getting a dog for my dad, do you know a breeder?

Her: yes! She's local and has (rattles off several breeds)

Me: nice, you seem into this. Know of a good pet shop? I just got a puppy andi want him to eat healthy.

Her: there's this place over on such and such that has organic pet food and other stuff

At this point a swarm of hipster surround us, with genuine interest, ones even wearing a fedora, I say bye and bounce.


I'm in a pool hall, and I'm on Valium, so I'm relaxed. I see a a solid 8 sitting at the bar (only place to eat) alone. I languidly saunter over

Me: hey

Her: Hi

Me: you have a great accent, where are you from?

Her: Russia, but I've been here for years. Who are you here with?

Me: I'm meeting a friend. You?

As if on cue her friend walks up, says hi, intorduces herself, and politely backs off. Gotta love the day time!

They're about to leave so I make this quick. I don't have my phone, so I grab a pen and napkin off the bar.

Write down you're number, maybe we can finish this chat.

She does, and although I flaked on her (mistake), she's agreed to meet me Thursday.

Post: #47

I'm trolling a campus when I see a platinum blonde coming my way.

Me: Hi, is your WiFi working (confused look)

Her: yes

Me: I can't get mine to work, which source did you choose? (Showing her the list of options on my tablet)

We talk about it a few minutes and then I ask if she's from Germany

She said she's from Denmark, so I ask if she's from Copenhagen; she is.

We talk about California and what we're studying and she asks my name.

I ask to look at her rings (excuse to hold her hand) and joke with her how she looks "fresh" in a playful way.

I peer over her shoulder and see a friend I haven't seen in a year or so. I'm in a hurry so I tell her I'll get coffee with her next time I see her ( we get out of class around the same time so we'll run into each other) and go over to my pal to catch up.

Not great, should have grabbed a number, but I'll see her again and reopen her for an instadate.

Post: #48

LA Savage has inspired me to film my approaches.

I have the iPhone on record but it only got the first few seconds, oh well.

I'm in world market and I spot a hot blond (think pre wall Tara Reid) with an ugly Hispanic chick. I notice they're holding h&m bags.

Me: are they having a sale?

Her: yes, for women

Me: is it Busy? On the way here I passed it and it looked packed

Her: well its possible, not when we were there

Me: interesting accent, where are you guys from

Paraguay

Me: no way, I would have never guessed

I ramble about Colombia and we talk about Europe and how we have passports from eu countries and they tease me that I don't know Italian

I create a fictitious BBQ and invite them to it. They accept and I get the hotties number and politely eject.

I see the back of a girl who looks bangable across the street and I walk over to her. She's not very impressive up close but I go for it.

Me: how do you get to the beach from here?

Her: its down this street

Me: are you south american?

Her: yes, from Venezuela

Me: Caracas?

Her: yes, I'm surprised you know of it

Me: so do you usually sit on walls by yourself, or are you waiting?

Her: my friends are inside

They come out and they're fucking awkward, I eject.
More coming soon

It's happened. I've been backsliding to beta. When I first joined the forum (I had spent months prior gleaning information from the forum) I devoured everything I read, all the way from how to open, to maintaining frame and using poise. I altered tuth's first date bang recipe and used it to great success. I learned greatly from the audacity of Gio in his day game endeavors. Thanks to Roosh and Fisto's writing of dominating faraway lands, I began seeing the world not unlike an architect see's an empty plot of land, waiting for his legacy, a work of art, to be erected. As a result the bangs started happening at an unprecedented rate. This carried on for quite a while. I saw women as cardboard cutouts of one another: same shit tests, "I didn't expect that to happen" s, flakiness and incredibly self-conscious. In essence, I achieved a state of mind that had em' right where I wanted them.

Then something happened: I got injured. I couldn't work out until i had a surgery that was months away. I got lazy.
That laziness turned into anxiety. I didn't read as avidly or approach every single day.
I lost frame and didn't filter as well. I told myself shit like "this is just a bad month" and " I don't need to worry because I've banged more girls than most could in several lifetimes." (Excluding members from this forum hah)

What went wrong? I started to care and I wasn't in shape, leading to more anxiety. I would, at times, use phenibut or Xanax as a crutch. This shouldered some of the weight but my achievements didn't feel as deserved.

I carefully ruminated over what course of action was necessary for a change and began acting on it. I found out what workouts I could do. I continued my studies. I began approaching more attractive women. I ordered the books I've been putting off reading. I set aside cash to do some extended travel this summer. I began rolling solo again. I took up meditation and changed my diet.

The victim mindset is for the feminists and sjw's.

How are things now? They're getting back to where they were.

I wanted to put this up for other people in the newbie section who feel like they're in a slump or game just isn't working. Are you going to say why me? Or why not? Why not approach? Why not go for a career change? We make our own luck.

I know this is an approach thread so here's som from yesterday.

I'm walking to grab lunch and see a tall, attractive blond sitting next to a brunette. As I get closer I hear they're speaking what sounds like Swedish.

Me: Hi ( I drew a blank and just said hi)

Girls: hi, how's it going?

Me: fine. I was wondering if you know where I could grab something to eat that's good around here? (Lying like the bastard I am, I'm nearly outside the restaurant I was going to)

They scramble for places to think of until I cut the crap.

Are you girls Swedish?

Blonde: I'm Norwegian, she's Swedish. Where are you from?

Me: I'm from xxxx, how do you like it here?

Both say how they like it and are going to a nearby school and ask me if I do.

Then 3 other swedes come out of the store. We all start talking about California segue into topics about school and our majors.

I really feel like I'm working this crowd, and although one of the swedes that came out of the store is slightly more attractive than the blonde I initiated, I end up getting the blondes number. I left my phone at my desk so I call it to save the number.

I'm on a campus and I have my prop cigarette on me. I see an Asian smoking.
Me: you got a lighter?
Her: yes... You know me!
Me: oh

We spark it up and talk for a bit.

Her: (with an amorous look) why did you tell me to delete your #?

This must have been a while ago.

Me: because I'm an asshole

Her: I deleted it, but you should take mine down

Me: sure
