FR: Gizmo and the Journey Ahead

Still getting caught up on everything that has been going in the last couple of weeks. Last week, a friend of mine, Gizmo, who I've been talking about the game with, called me up and asked for some advice on a personal matter. Its funny how as of recently I'm always able to relate everything in life to the game. This is because, I'm all about forward progression with self improvement nowadays. Anyway, I lent him the book, The Game by Neil Strauss A.K.A. Style. He has since been intrigued and has seen my fast progression since embarking upon my journey from AFC to PUA (at least according to him). I'm still a far cry away from becoming a PUA, but I'm extremely dedicated and I'm happy to have Gizmo join the community and hopefully accompany Shaggy and I on our outings every week. Now Gizmo is one of those extremely shy intellectual types that only really comes out his shell once he knows you and as soon as he does, you can't get him to shut up (slightly kidding of course). I took Gizmo with me to a local shopping mall so we can eat, talk theory, and also so I can have him practice breaking out his comfort zone which is gonna be his major sticking point throughout all of this (he's got major AA). So we went and ate a local restaurant while I demonstrated some of my newly acquired social skills in an interaction with the waitress. I was actually amazed with myself and the major changes I have made in just a short period of time. I was able to build attraction with her in a just a few short minutes (more on her in a later post.) Anyway, the whole point was not to pick her up, but to demonstrate to Gizmo some of the game theory we had been discussing. We then strolled the mall area in an effort to have Gizmo open someone, even if it was a simple hello. I really wanted to see him get out of his comfort zone. We continued walking for a bit, and we really weren't able to find too much foot traffic because of the time of night we went there. However, he was able to say hello to one guy walking by. Hey, progress is progress and I though this was a good sign. I can tell he felt a little uncomfortable because he told me he thought the guy "gave him a weird look." I can't wait until he catches up to me, because he is going to be great at this. We continued strolling and attempted to find other people, but we really just could not find anyone there because as I mentioned, the place was about to close. We then proceeded to go into a Health store of sorts and I opened and started flirting with a receptionist there. I really felt my game was on that night. I totally thought I could have number closed this women, who had the most gorgeous eyes I have ever seen (just a side note), but the whole point wasn't to go out sarging, but too get Gizmo involved in some interactions. He did throw a couple of questions into the interaction (this was big for him). At any rate, I'm excited to have a new friend joining us on our missions and to have someone else to talk theory with. I could tell by the end of the night, his energy had changed and he was really excited to get into the game. I think if we can just work on his posture and overall attitude in an effort to convey confidence, he will become one of the greats. I know he did start becoming more social because of this past weekend. Stay tuned and I'll post more about that later.
