Rock Solid Game

Our relationship ended exactly a year ago, and we are to meet up
tomorrow to see how each other are getting on and to give back her
stuff. Lauren has met and is living with a guy now, I'm still teaching
and dating various girls.

So, to say a thank you to Lauren - from me, TonyT, I'm posting up her
field reports that she wrote for Sarge School, a year ago, when she was
our official boot camp wing woman.

Enjoy, and maybe learn a little...

"Last weekend I was waiting at the bar to buy a drink ( personally I hate it when you are queuing at a bar and the guy next to you catches the barpersons attention and then goes” yes please serve this girl next” – it makes me cringe, guys think they are being chivalrous and helpful, when it fact it makes you feel a bit pathetic, I can get the barpersons attention myself!) a guy barged passed me and ordered before me. He then turned to me and said “I’m sorry I’ve just pushed in haven’t I?” I said "yes you have and I am extremely angry”.

He laughed and said “how can I ever make this up to you” I liked that he was confident and didn’t care. I said “ Hmm, well you could buy my friend and  I a drink” ( most of what I have read suggests that guys shouldn’t offer to buy girls drinks – however I actually don’t mind – this is because I’m a cheapskate- lots of girls are cheapskates).
He brought my friend and I a drink and then he walked off. I liked that he didn’t use this as a way of pursuing us further. It made him seem genuine. Later on in the evening he complimented us on our terrible dancing. His friend then came over to speak to us. He was massively drunk and couldn’t string a sentence together. The first guy said “ you wouldn’t believe it but he actually runs a hugely successful car hire company” We didn’t really acknowledge this and so he continued “ although his business isn’t as successful as mine, I run a chain of large hair salons” By bringing in details about his wealth so quickly it seemed like he was showing off.
In truth I was mildly impressed, but not enough to want to carry on the conversation. He then mentioned his wife worked in the salon and talked briefly about his children. This diffused the situation for me and I instantly lost attraction. A lot of material I have read suggests that if a guy says he has a girlfriend it will make him more attractive to women. Because it shows he is desirable and can communicate with women. I disagree. As soon as a guy mentions he has a current girlfriend any decent girl will instantly back off, I think this is because most girls imagine what they would feel like in that girls shoes.

What girls do like though is match making, if a guy says I like this girl, what should I do.. That’s a different story. Girls LOVE that. Returning to the report, he then kept up the conversation, even after mentioning his wife. He then tried to escalate the sexual element of the conversation by complimenting my friend and I. He then said “so, do you want a lift home in my DB7 or my Porsche?” I add “how did you manage to drive 2 cars down here?” Again, on the whole girls aren’t that impressed by cars. I saw a piece in the paper that said given the choice of exactly the same man in a nice car and a rubbish car she will always pick the guy in the good car and I would say this is true, but during a pick up set I don’t think its relevant. He asked for my number and I declined."
