In Set Dissection

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t2EYV7IeRGA&fs=1&hl=en_GB] Rightly or wrongly, this is what I did. 00:26 - 'How good is your English'. I don't know why but sets seem to go so much better with this opener. Challenging them maybe? 00:36 - 'Fucking sexy walk'.  A bit of sexual aggression. I'm not a beta pansy who wants to ask her permission for anything. Fuck that. I am Jimmy J. A fucking rock star. 00:40 - 'You're not the best looking girl in Zagreb'. I shouldn't have to explain what this is. A neg. Bear in mind she is a model, so she is constantly being told she is super sexy. NOTE: In this infield, she doesn't look that great from some of the camera angles, but in person there is a good reason why she was the girl I opened. She was very hot and she stood out a mile. 00:47 - The step back. Generally, I'll open, if I hit on them directly, I'll then step back to relieve them of the high 'pull' energy. Note when we were close, she wasn't stepping away. 00:54 - 'I like your accessory'. I should have let her open up. I didn't, I went into a DHV. Mistake. 00:58 - She walks away slightly. I don't turn immediately. I leave it for a second or two until the conversation makes sense to do so. I don't puppy dog follow. NOTE: Notice she is on the phone! 00:59 - I am not from Manchester. I am from Burnley. Sometimes I say Burnley if I want a chance to tell a long DHV story about where Burnley is, etc. Sometimes, I'll say Manchester, because I never have to explain to anyone where it is. 01:15 - Straying onto religion. I wanted to get off this topic as soon as possible. She says she is religious so ideally I'd follow up and open her up on that, but religion is a subject I'd rather stay away from early on. 01:21 - She says 'OK' in a tone that suggests 'OK, nice to talk to you, I now have to go'. I know it's coming so I grab for a stack. 01:26 - This is pick-up gold. Any-time a set of mine looks like dropping away or losing energy, in the early stages, I have pre prepared stacks. Interesting comments that lead into other topics of conversation, topics that usually build my value. This has worked well in so many of my sets. 'You remind me of someone'. 02:09 - She now knows I have beautiful 'high value' women in my life. 'We should hang out sometime'. This is FAR too early (why should we, there is no rapport or connection). And I know it when I am saying it, but again I know she is about to walk off. It's a last throw of the dice. She walks off, what happens next is pure luck and quick thinking. 02:15 - She is walking off, backing off. I know there is some level of attraction built. I can sense it. So I give her an ultimatum. I am pretty sure I am the shiniest thing she has encountered in a long time. I DARE her to close the door. I force her to make a binary decision - ie a NO. I presume she will be more comfortable keeping her options open for a few minutes more. I DO NOT WALK AFTER HER. I say it with a cocky smile and a big cock. 'This is the only chance you have got to meet me. If you walk away........' 02:25 - Facebook close. OK. But this will flake. I know it. I need to use the time I bought to recover this set. I am now going try to build more attraction. NOTE: I DHV in a linear fashion. It's first 10 minutes, I need to build attraction, build my value, I DHV until she fancies me. This is a lot different to what Krauser does. His method is more to DHV as and when appropriate. 'Drive by DHV'. If he gets his chance, he does it. Watch his sets as opposed to mine to see the difference. 02:42 - OK, her value is high. Mine is currently lowER. Not low, lowER than hers. So what I need to do is bring my value up again and hers down. 'If we're going to be friends.....'. I am setting myself as a prize. I am saying it to try and flip the script. It's classic pick up. All my sets I spend the first say 10 minutes to raise my value and lower hers. Classic pick-up. No big secret. 02:48 - DHV 'I took some friends....' 03:02 - DHV 03:07 - Demonstrating a grasp of her world. 03:13 - DHV, leading and protecting. 03:25 - More DHV, showing I have been to all the places in this region, places not many other people go. Also, I want to try emotive language. So I talk about the war. 03:32 - When she mentioned Angelina Jolie for a second, for a laugh, I considered saying 'yeah, I have fucked her' as an off hand comment. Just because I knew it was on video and would be funny. I really wish I had said it, though I think it would have blown the set. It would be worth it though for the laughs. 03:44 - Mostar. Still letting her know I have been all around this region. Not many people have been to Mostar. NOTE: At this point I have her Facebook details. I KNOW the set is fucked and the close is irrelevant. All it did was to buy me more time to work the set. Just like the stack did. Now I know I am in the last chance saloon.  I have to be sure I have at least built attraction and built some rapport before I let her go. 04:06 - This is totally a joke. I drew her in emotionally, made a big deal out of it and then just say something to belittle it, more for the camera than for the set. I pulled out of the Angelina Jolie thing so didn't want to pull out of this. It also released some of the tension of the story for me, I am not sure she could follow a lot of my accent. 04:12 - IOI 04:31 - I just love to stare and point at hot girls. Dominate them. How many pansy betas do that. 04:36 - I almost sound dissappointed 'Oh, you were a model'. 04:49 - This is a fuck up. Big time. I want to make sure I ram home I don't give a shit about her being a model. I should have just left it. What I try to do here is say a) I know loads of models b) I like you because of XYZ. I realise I didn't have an XYZ to go to. 06:28 - Just want to tease her. So I claim that her last name is the word for 'smelly pickle' in German. It's not, but to this day when we speak on Facebook, I call her pickle and she still gives me a big smile. 07:38 - It's obvious what I am doing here 07:38 onwards - Looks like a weak close right? Well I still FB chat with her to this day. When I return to Zagreb in March she is likely one of the targets I'll meet up with. I have 5 targets for my Zagreb follow up. I am confident I can close 2 of 5.  It's all about options. This is a dissection of how a bad set turned OK.
