San Diego Field Report 2 (2/3)

Last night I met up with another PUA who was visiting from Texas in San Diego. So much easier with a wing. Nonetheless. We hit up Pacific Beach. First stop by Typhoon Saloon. Yep. Fuji was right. Tons of blondes. This bar reminded me a lot of Old Pro back in Palo Alto – big strapping frat guys and skinny blondes. Natural counterparts.

We were getting to know each other and a girl comes up and approaches us. I wasn’t sure why but she was perky and my new Texas friend starts reading her aura. She’s fun and then jumps away as soon as she came. I wasn’t sure what’s up with that – never seen it before. I think she was looking for us to buy her a drink and when she realized we weren’t going to because we weren’t chodes, she left!

San Diego Field Report 1 and the San Diego Lair (1/3)

I took a week off for vacation this week and decided to drive to San Diego for a week. I’ve always thought about San Diego, and the last time I was here almost 4 years ago, we were stuck on Coranado Island and “Googler” events. Which was great, but I am pretty sure no one got laid.

Gaming 9s and 10s Series – Part 2: Field Report in Marina

Field Report by Intermediate PUA (Me)

I end up in the north beach streets this weekend. I am on my own due to my scheduling with my facial lady (Not that kind of facial you sicko). Solo sarging is tough. Hard to keep the energy up when you’ve been walking the streets for 4 hours straight. Nonetheless, it makes you stronger and everyone I was able to overcome AA while solo sarging, I was able to gain valuable experience.

This weekend was no exception. The afternoon started out a bit slow, but I was able to strike up some conversations with girls that were around. By the time Serum joined me, I only had 1 number and 1 facebook. Better than nothing.

When He and another PUA friend joined me, and the dynamics worked. The energy flowed and we matched each other on vibe and the group energy was a relaxed and exciting calmness that I haven’t felt in a while. Upon getting dinner, we hit up the infamous Marina for hot blondes.

Tonight was my night to practice, and I decided to listen to Arash’s and Fuji’s advice on approaching more 9s and 10s, even if I fail. I figured, if I get rejected, it might as well be from a hot girl than an ugly one.

Personality Stereotypes	Marina Barbies are usually pretty nice if you have a general sense of style and they consider you somewhat around their class. By class I mean social class They have a healthy, sometimes inflated sense of entitlement, generally naive and nice because people always treated them well as beautiful little girls and daddy’s little girls High maintenance, wine and dine dating style. Rumor has it that some Marina girls are taken care of by older, rich San Francisco old money who pays for their expensive apartments and quality of life Most Marina girls don’t work, or work in easy jobs like a receptionist, a retail store girl or other “eye candy” occupations that leverage her looks Marina girls love dogs and puppies, yoga, fruit smoothies, walking, jogging, pilates, high end nail saloons and shopping at high end fashion brand stores Considers extravagant waste and leisure an art form
How to Game	Get past the class discrimination with upscale, classy fashion sense. Proximity and logistics to close by Marina apartments helps. Game should be pretty tight although Marina girls are generally pretty nice rejecting guys because of their experience with it over the years. Her disqualifying criteria will mostly be based on class and lifestyle (i.e. she’s not going to talk to a bum) so if you can get past this then it is standard pickup game. For the hottest 9s and 10s, you will have to find a way to deal with AMOG Marina Frat/Jock guys and their social circle guy friends. Most of these guys are good looking but have limited game. However their physical presence can be intimidating and they are most often found in large groups. Barks louder than they bite.
Natural Enemy	Hot Asian Girls, Mission Hippie Girls, South Bay Fatties, SF Fatties

Additional Notes about Marina Girls:

• The Marina Safe-way market is also known as “Dateway”, given its high saturation of cougars Read more

FR – Bad blowouts, but I know exactly what I did wrong

Have you ever asked someone a question to which you already know the answer to? That’s what it felt like last night as I was thinking about this. Usually, I’d get really serious and think about what went wrong, and wreck my brain over it.

As I went to sleep I realized all of the mistakes I made, but I wanted to detail them out here – just on a very logical level so this doesn’t happen again.

11:15- arrive at Ambassador. Guest list only – apparently there’s a huge private event going on. We hit Rye across the street, and Stone and I play a game of pool as we wait for Shogun. Actually the pool game was kind of a DHV, everyone else was standing around being bored and we got glances from a few girls that were interested. There was some Indian party going on, I didn’t open any sets as non of the girls were that cute. Bad excuse, should have practiced anyway.

11:40 – Shogun and my favorite maverick RockNRoll show up. We grab a round, shoot the shit and move on to Le Colonial.

This place was packed, and it was loud. I opened one dancing set, didn’t stick, was getting some AA. Lost everyone else, realized i wasn’t in the vibe for dance/physical game, left on my own. Hit up Cantina. There’s a girl in this area wearing a brown hat, who says she lost her wallet and need 20 to get back home. Talked to another guy who said the same girl chatted him up and asked him for money. For the record – don’t get fooled by her she’s just working you.

Cantina was cool, we ended up merging with an Asian group, who pretty much tagged us for the next party. I explain we have to go but they follow us to Clift hotel anyway. Clift, I open my frist sets (getting AA today). Here are my sets for the rest of the night. It was pretty obvious that AA and bad openers closed me out for the night, and there’s really no one else to blame but myself.

Set 1
Blonde milf hits my shoulder – I playfully hit her back
Me “This is not a fight you know. Although I’d win if it was”
Her: “Oh I’m sorry. It is crowded in here” turns around a little bit to disengage from the 2 guys she was talking to
Me: “Unless of course you were hitting on me”
Her: “I….. highly doubt that”
I brace myself for the rejection. Ouch. Too direct, while she was in set.

Set 2
Australian milf stops me, says hi, introduces me to aussie guy friend, who she met that night. She was testing me to see if I was more alpha than him and who to go home with. I escalate a little bit but overall the conversation was too needy and it didn’t stick

I was too needy here, should have engaged the guy friend and pushed her away a little bit to make her chase me. She lost interest soon after the yarn was no longer being dangled.

Set 3
Tall brunette milf, dances with me a little, bitchy friend. I diffuse by saying she’s loyal and I’m like that with my friends too, she warms up and then reveal they are both married and say good bye

Fun set, nothing more I could have done.

Set 4
2 asian girls, follows us to the same restaurant -
me, ‘ you guys are stalking us arent you’
hb: ‘no you’re stalking us!”
Inside restaurant, “hey stalker girl”. Get ignored and the other one gives a weak smile and goes back to eat

Set 5
2 HB8 brunettes outside
me “hi!”
HBs ignore me, one of them says hi as they are walking by into the restaurant

Body language was off, should have more forcefully stopped but it was end of the night and maybe an opinion opener would have been better

Set 6
Hb8 and HB6 at sidewalk
This is where I actually follow game
Opinion opener on my style
Sticks.
I kino HB8, Stone wings
She’s hold my hand behind my back
Good convo
Before we can nclose, she says her guy friend is over there and says sorry, she has to go
I wasn’t sure if this set was stoppable given the interrupt, and we lost it at that.

Lessons learned
1. Stone was a huge factor in me staying positive
2. When opening, be forceful and deliberate
3. AA happens, better to get it out early in the night rather than later
4. normal AFC openers dont work for me. Either go direct or do an opinion opener
5. Overall, AA got the best of me and a deviation from game and going with normal AFC openers cemented the night for me.
