Solid advice. Girls want to meet guys. If you don't approach, you can't win. What can come from saying, "Hi!", can be amazing. If that's all you've got though, you're dead meat.
One caveat, both guys were good looking in their own ways. If you aren't physically attractive to women, you'd better have a REALLY good, quick, funny, and intriguing mind...
Best to have that anyway.
Get the info and split before you fcuk up. That buys you time for the next go-around. Things can go to ice in a heartbeat. NEVER be drunk. Always have a drink though. NURSE it and don't be afraid to leave it behind.
Oh! The pro? He's a pro and I sure don't endorse his lifestyle but his rules work for any of us...anytime.
Thanks.
