Hey guys. Apologies for being out of touch for a while (damn uni work *shakes fist*) thanks for the advice I got from my first field report, and as suggested I have set up an ongoing field report to track progress.

On Friday night I had a pretty abysmal night, I was going sarging with a friend, who then ditched me in the queue to go meet some tart for a fuck. Luckily I knew people in the queue so I partied with them and saw lots of people I knew etc. etc. However my PUA game was nowhere to be seen, for some reason I was in a serious mood and couldn't shake it, unwind and have fun. There were plenty of opportunities too, but I had it in my mind that there was no point; absolutely ridiculous.

Throughout the whole night I only chatted to a few friends of friends but just wasn't feeling it, which was really frustrating. Not to mention by this time about 4 coke-based beverages had been tossed over my white t-shirt, making me look like a filthy mess.

So no approaches, definitely no closes, no pick up lines, openers, etc. Nothing, it was like I had gone back into my old self.

So I was wondering if anyone has ever had this kind of night, and if so, what measures you took/recommend to ensure it doesn't happen again.

On the bright side though, I am heading out sarging again tonight and am feeling in better spirits about the whole thing (I think this is probably the key thing that went wrong last time), and will be using opinion-based openers, will throw in a few negs here and there, and MUST remember to Kino (a key thing I missed last week). I won't be trying to stringently implement these things, except for Kino, and will use them when relevant, I will just keep them in mind and vibe most of the time.

Anyway, so I will report back tomorrow and let you know how I got on, and also any pre-sarging tips will be much appreciated, as would criticisms to my approach.

Pre sarging tips, how to get into a fun state.

Meet up an hour earlier, at your mates flat. Play video games, hang out, have a laugh.

If you've been working all day, have a quick drink b4 u go out, alcoholic and/or energy drink, will take the très serious edge off.

I find going to gym helps or if time pressed a quick swim.. means u can go from tired and serious to energized! Exercise electrifies your whole body.

Don't overthink things. Initial sets, chat to guys nearby, or ANY women nearby, and be the guy they laugh with. So, this isn't pickup. It is being social.

Do a range of the above and u will hit ground running in a fun relaxed positive state.

Thanks Rebus. I was planning on going to the gym tonight and going round a mate's house to pre-drink tonight, so I guess I'm heading in the right direction

Soo last night I was having drinks with my course mates. One of them brought a cute girl with her, who opened me, though she was talking to everyone so I didn't treat it as specific sentiment. We talked a few times throughout the night, and she seemed interested, though I tried negging her as she misread a cocktail menu saying "you should learn to read first!" which didn't go down to well. But she seemed friendly enough after that, we kept talking but she later excused herself and I didn't talk to her for the rest of the night, though I caught a glimpse of her being hit on by someone else. I think again, my critical flaw came out, which was not making any kino, at the time I was thinking which type of kino I should use but didn't come up with anything. So a fail pretty much because I think I could've had her should my game have been more polished. So what do you guys think of my mistakes and how important do you think going kino is when you're interacting with a target?

Kino was somthing i never did it was very much me....gap.....her
defeating this is an excellent step up in your overall game and how you come across

Thanks man, any indispensable kino advice, or is it just a matter of practice?

I started with the cold reading number guess and i would start it off by asking her for her hands, i would hold them and ask her to think of a number between 1-10, they say most people choose 7 but everytime ive done this game ive got it wrong...now i just say, it was just a reason to hold your hands..

Or if you are chatting in conversation and you say hey your hair looks nice... lighly brush the side of her face etc (dont wreack her hair tho)

then you can move on to being a bit more dominant with her and taking her by the hand when you lead her anywhere or touching the small of her back
ask her if she can dance... then take her hand and give her a twirl, then say to her bviously not... lol - then suck her back in closer to your body for a hug.

just look for any excuse to touch her but not in an overtly smarmy way, especially if she doesnt seem that into you

this is still a massive work in progress for me as i can be massively standoffish

Awesome, great advice man, will try out all of these next time. I tried the number 7 game myself but I told the girl to think of a number, then she just shouted out "7", haha.

But yeah, physical contact is the crippler to my game at the moment, all my previous closes have ended in her making the physical contact, so I know the whole stand-off thing too well haha.

This was a big sticking point for me and it's definitely not internalised yet. The biggest thing is timing, the longer you leave it the weirder it gets, shake hands place your hand on their back touch the side of their arm when you make a point ect but do it straight away and it will seem normal leave it too long and it's creepy. I also find that once I get started it's pretty easy to carry on, so kino with friends a lot as soon as I'm out.

You want a nice lil kino trick? Everytime I've done this I've gotten great feedback, from the target but mostly from the group...

( you can do this as an opener, I've seen it work, but I wouldnt)
Stand beside her, put your hand in your pocket " I've got something for you"...
Pulling out a closed fist, put it near her hand and say "take this"... they always think it's a sweet wrapper, but whatever.. When she opens her hand, you grab it and looking at her friends say "now we're holding hands " ( with a stupid grin on your face preferably )

The group almost always goes AWWWWWWWW, and it's great for dealing with the AMOG, as you can imagine... 9 times outta 10 the girl will just keep holding your hand ( probably wouldnt take it as an IOI )

Laka!
