Good idea man, thanks!

And I'm NOT gonna look at her Facebook profile once more until I have further contact from her!

DOH!! Not sure why I thought you were serious there

Apologies Mycroft.

No worries man , it's from a scene in the film "Diner".

arr dont worry about it mate, she probably just chickened out and not flaked on you at all, women do get nervous around men too ya know lol...think about it if she didnt think you were cool,interesting,fun etc she wouldnt of text you back in the first place hmmm.. but anyway todays flake just frees your time for tomorrows woman plough on

Mate, youre doing what I did with my HB last week.

Mate she was stunning, it was great at first seeing her just chilling but then I lost the plot, got in my head and got all weird.

Best advice I can give you mate is - CHILL THE FUCK OUT MOTHER F*UCKER.

Get someone to slap you hard, really hard and remember shes just a girl and more importantly a person like you.

Thanks for the pointers guys, all very much appreciated!

They say you don't make the same mistake twice. I won't be making this one again. I should have just texted her saying 'That's cool, well I'm free on XXXday, let me know if you're around' and just left it at that.

Dolph - I think, with this one, I've been totally blinded by the lights! She is so, so, so gorgeous. Like far more gorgeous than any girl I've ever had a chance with! One of my housemates asked me about it all earlier, and I shrugged my shoulders and said 'Yeah she's nice, but she's the first of many'.

So in a way, if she flakes completely, I don't really give a shit, because its perfectly obvious from this pick up that I can do it. And I can do it fuckin easily! I've gone over that pick up so many times in my head since. And one word stands out: energy. I had so, so much energy. At the start of the set, I just appeared out of nowhere - I was coming out of the club, she was standing facing away from me smoking a cig, and suddenly I burst up asking about custard. And the conversation moved so damn fast, she didn't have chance to get a grip of it before I was off talking about something else.

And it all felt totally natural to me. It really did, and that's great.

So, if she flakes out for whatever reason, that's fine - I'm going out on Friday lunchtime, and maybe again Friday night, and maybe again Saturday night. I'll open another 20 sets, and I'll post on here next week about how I sent them the perfect texts!

Spot on mate.

Thank you to all the guys who have offered advice in this thread. You're all absolute legends!

If she does flake don't worry about it, you would have maybe got some action with a hottie but now you've learned something and gained a new name! Overt!
