need some help with this pickup

i graduated high school last year, she's a senior in high school. we have no close mutual friends but a few distant ones. the first time i was walking in the hallway she approached me (no that's not a typo) and asked me about a novel i was carrying. we had a decent conversation about it on the way to class. i messaged her the other day and kind of typed my responses quickly. when i read it back to myself it sounds a little too AFC. here's the conversation:



me: completely random haha but i'm out of ideas. i want something new to read over the break and as you probably know it's rather difficult to find an opinion on that sort of thing amongst friends, when none of them read. i remember last year you told me to read a book and i actually did end up reading it and it was a really good book. anyways, i need something new to read, any recommendations?

her: Youth in revolt and 1984 are two of my favorites

me: youth in revolt sounds like it's worth a shot, i'll let you know what i think when i finish. if i don't like it though, i blame you.



if anyone has any suggestions, i'm listening. access to my old high school is still avaliable to me although as a school of 4k+ it's not likely i would run into her.

hi bro,

I think the first part of the conversation is correct but the "me: youth in revolt sounds like it's worth a shot, i'll let you know what i think when i finish. if i don't like it though, i blame you." part is a little bit off. It would be safe if you said "You: youth in revolt sounds like it's worth a shot, i'll let you know what i think when i finish. if i don't like it though you should tell me more about it after the class..." From there if she's okay with the idea, you can have time together and there's a lot of contact to happen rather than sending each other text messages or calls..

It's kind of hard to say what the dynamic really is without knowing body language and such...
do you see her often?
did she show any ioi's?

Saying "the right thing" wont go nearly as far as having a lot of options and not putting much weight on reeling her in. If you've got a good social circle try to pull her in. Maybe invite her to your dungeons and dragons duel
(just farking with ya man)
but you get the point, try pull her into your circle

Next time you message her, make sure you're working on meeting up. Suggest a book exchange instead where both of you bring something to lend each other when you meet up for coffee.

i had a strong social circle, but they all left for college. not to mention the fact one of my friends likes her too and would AMOG me and even going as far as saying a lie about me to get with her. like i said not many close mutual friends but a few distant ones so it's hard to even come into contact with her besides facebook. i just thought of something though, i've heard she does use the same gym as me. has anyone written an article on how to game in a gym?

I don't know much about gaming at a gym but I think having a great bod is a start. I mean, she won't be looking at you much if you're huffing and puffing your way through weights. Maybe you can try going when she's there, chat her up sometimes (like about what she listens to during), be cool about it, say goodbye after. Then next time you guys are there together, 'accidentally' finish at the same time and just casually ask her if she wants to grab a bite after.

Hmmm... off the top of my head, these are things that could maybe help you get the girl:
1) be her spotter
I don't think you should try hitting on her while she's working out, but helping her out will put her in a grateful mood and you've made your presence known without forcing it. This can also give you Kino opportunities.
2) get her schedule
If you can afford to bust your routine sometimes by going when she's there, then do so. Give her a chance to see you in action! No need to sacrifice your entire schedule for her though, since your body is being improved to service other women as well, hehe. Maybe you could also start an hour or two before she does so that you're actually finished with your routine and can easily approach her when she's on a break.
3) lots of small talk
Since you're both there to work out, flirting will have to play second fiddle to it. I think in this case, patience is a virtue. You don't want to hit on her too hard that she ends up avoiding you next time.
4) timing is important
You don't want to come across as someone who just goes there to Pick Up Girls. You also don't want to be approaching her when she's really into her routine, or is sweating real heavily that she's feeling ugly and dirty.

thanks for the advice. i guess i'll just try a bunch of different gym times and see if i can spot her. some good news, i met a girl at a party last night and when i added her on facebook i saw the target and her recently tagged in some photos together. turns out theyre really good friends if only i had spoken with her for a few minutes longer
