It’s funny because I’ve made a genuine shift towards making more meaningful connections recently because the hook up culture was getting a little old for me and I’ve never gotten so much action lol. It’s very ironic but I think there’s truth to it.

My suggestion would be to agree to a genuine friendship and shit will happen. Don’t expect it to, but it will.

Haha no but it does kinda look that way

Usually pretty straightforward ones like in the the screenshots I posted. Here’s a new one

For me it just acts as the soft close and I can redirect to that after talking for a bit

This could very well be a girl just looking for an easy follow. Doesn’t sound like she’s interested and in my experience I’d move on. It’s a numbers game and chasing too hard is going to lead to being demoralized.

What did the convo ahead of time look like? Did you build any rapport there or was her first response sending you her insta?

I’m honest and let them know I’m open to the option but that I’m really slow with relationships. I genuinely try and get to know the girls I go on dates with however and it makes retention a lot easier. If anything it can lead to them chasing more because you’re somewhat closed off and unavailable even though you’ve made it clear you care about them

Thank you my man. Definitely not trying to start a whole generation of kids at the moment haha

She seems like a waste of time. You can give her shit back and see where it leads but bratty types are the hardest to navigate

Make out is lower investment so I can tell them to come over at 9 or 10 as long as I build rapport ahead of time.

Some girls can’t fit into my schedule but being able to set girls aside for potentially later is really empowering. It’s worth losing a few people to maintain that confidence and self worth

With this opener it’s been near 50%

Definitely the best one I’ve used yet. It’s stupid but it works haha
