Look, a conversation with a complete stranger can create arkward situations, especially during the first few minutes. Don’t forget that many women feel social pressure when they get approached during the day. Therefore it’s really good to possess some conversational tools and methods that make the interaction smooth and make the girl open up to you.

This gameplan is the result of a four months intensive street game training, but all in all I had one-and-a-half years of Pick Up experience when I wrote it down. I think that gameplans can be useful on every stage of your development – you can still improvise in a certain situation, if you like.

Managing the logistics well is an intrinsic part of “game”, too. And logistics are really crucial. You have to be prepared in order to know interesting dating places to go nearby. My mindset is: “Whatever her time schedule looks like, if she likes me, she’ll come with me.” Of course, this is not 100 per cent true, but some girls postpone appointments etc. to come with me.
