And last, but not least, my final conversation with strangers to complete Mission 1.
CONVERSATION 5 – Elevator neighbor couple
(5:00 pm on Halloween, heading to the gym)
Me: Hi. I’m going as a gym rat this year. (smirks)
Her: Ha! We’re no better. (points to them dressed in regular clothes)
Me: Do you live in the building?
Him: Yep, been here since June.
Me: It’s a great building. People seem nice here.
Her: Yes, they do! How long have you lived here?
Me: Just moved in recently!
Her: (They get off at different floor) Happy Halloween!
Me: You too!
Well they certainly seemed nice. Overall, I think I did well in this first mission. At least I did exactly what the book asked me to do. Though I definitely took note of a few concerns.
- I should probably start asking their names and introducing myself.
- I need to go to places to meet strangers that is not my elevator.
- I’m sure we’ll get to this in the book because it’s, well, the point: I’d like to meet more attractive females instead of dudes and couples. I’m patient.
Mission grade: A-
The minus is because so many of these took place in the elevator. Nevertheless, it’s time for mission 2.
P.S. This was Halloween weekend and I went out to a club. I met some new friends, chatted very briefly with some attractive and non-attractive females, and had some drinks as well. The women were polite but didn’t stick around. Though it was impossible to hear much less have a conversation. I also danced akwardly with a few girls as well. Spun one Asian babe which was fun. Again, didn’t stick around though. But whatever, these wheels are rusty. It was a fun night that ended in a weird garage party in Belltown.

“It’s a great building. People seem nice here.” – That comment in itself made your conversation personal, and complimentary to the couple you interacted with. Essentially, not only would they agree because they live in the building, but you subconsciously had them also agree that they too believe you are a nice person.
Wait till you use such a technique on a girl that you are interested. You’ll surprise her and yourself!

I love reading other peoples blogs who are just starting out in PUA or been in it for a while and it is interesting to read about other peoples experiences.
Good Job on completing the style life challenge. I have been meaning to do it but I am so lazy to start it. I saw your post about peacocking, I was a bit nervous too but I suggest start off slow with one peacock item at a time. Such as start off with rings then maybe some cool leather cuffs. Then some trendy shoes etc.
Thats how I started. First was rings, then cuffs, then trendy shoes, then cowboy boots, and then a fur vest the one that looks like matadors vest from vh1 pick up artist. Anyway its all about being comfortable about it. If you’re not comfortable then people can tell and sense it.

Thanks for the comment Element! I haven’t quite completed the Stylelife Challenge yet, just the first mission! (Day 1 actually though I’m not doing them by day). There are 30 total.
And btw, nice site of yours. I think I read through most of the posts this afternoon. Keep it up!
As for peacocking, I am still searching for that perfect pair of assless leather pants.
