I have been using GWM in day and night game and have had mixed results, some being positive and others not. Its actually quite funny when you come across too strong, I am having trouble calibrating the right amount of state to project and this is being made more difficult by the fact that I still have AA on some approaches and am coming across as nervous probably about half of the time. My main sticking point is the 90/10 rule, I am opening but running out of stuff before I can get to a hook point and the anxiety is often coming on after the opener. However I really need to kill off my AA but when I am feeling confident on opening and get the target to hook, I stumble on getting attraction:

For instance a chick said stop looking at me with those sleazy eyes 3 hours in to an interaction. That was actually a ST and I kclosed her but that triggered her ASD big time. I was using SS projection but I failed to dominate the frame. However I was pretty happy that she verbalised the sexual state as I was putting her mind in the right place.

Today, I chatted to a cougar on the bus and I did it differently, rather than use SS projection, I assumed there was attraction/ sexual tension and I really thought she was hot for me as I got great EC + BL but I screwed it up by using poor kino and I backed down from getting a day2 or #close as she had a wedding ring on. Kicking myself now.

The other week I scored and got an F close, however I didn't get any positive BL or EC during the interaction, I assumed I hadn't pigeon holed her mind in the right place and I had used too much rapport but we had an its on moment out of the blue and we grabbed each other. I used kino, DHV stories and didn't do the SS projection very well as I was drinking. However I had pigeon holed myself in her mind in the right place, I think by doing this, although she told me she was attracted to me because of my looks.

The other day I tried to close a Malaysian chick but totally fluffed up the #close due to the language barrier. I projected too much state and she ended up walking away really fast when we got off the ferry! However she was really fidgeting with her hair in my line of sight and I was pretty sure she was attracted to me on my looks.

My questions anyway....
Which of you incorporate ss projection or sexual tension?
Has anyone had success with assuming tension?
Do you really have to dominate the frame for these to work or is this just part of your game anyway while you use other tactics?
How important of a role does this play in your interactions and do you use it only as a tactic to pigeon hole yourself in the right place in her mind or is this your sole tool for attraction?
What is the aim of your interaction... is it to get #closes and day 2 her or same day lays?

My format is going for comfort then trying to break rapport (but I'm crap at C&F) along with SS projection which I'm finding difficult to maintain throughout an interaction when night gaming, or maybe I am doing it somewhat as I have had some postive indicators. I'm staying in set for a few hours at a time if it hooks however, its easy for me to get rappport assumption with other backpackers as I got a useful shortcut.
However as I'm only out for two more months, I won't have this crutch for much longer and alcohol is also a major crutch I have. I am not getting a large volume of approaches in but I am getting hours of field experience.
I'm just stuck on what I should or can be doing after the hook point to get attraction consistently. Should state projections or vibe assumptions be soley used? Does anyone use routines for attraction?
