Second Progress Report - Lessons Learned Along the Way

Always Work on The Instagram

As I improve mine, bit by bit, I'm able to get some more open threads from event invites (even if they don't come). People who I know in person have commented on how good my instagram looks.

I've also learned that when you exchange instagrams with a girl, within the day, HELL, within the hour she will have gone through your ig and seen what your about.

After sending out a few invites to a latin night by the beach, I got an open thread with a girl with a 202K following. It shows that my ig has improved enough to get some responses. This never would have happened before.

From doing step 2 you will notice how much work many guys Instagram's need.

Try to Get Selfie Videos and Videos in General

For cinco de mayo I went out to a restaurant that turns into a bar with a dance floor at night. End up dancing with some ladies there, including 2 best friends: one caribbean, one light skin latina. It started with me doing body isolations just for fun to the beat.

Then the caribbean girl started dancing with me, her friend sees this and starts dancing with me as well. When they're both done, I remember to do a selfie video with them.

We take the video, and I tell them I will send the video (also included it in story highlights). Now I have an open thread with them.

I'm not sure if anything will come of this as they are into different things than I am.

Also, this was mentioned before here but do you best to get a group selfie pic (even if you don't like them). People will tag each other in the ig stories. So get a group selfie pic, have the person share it. Post it to ig stories with as many people tagged as possible, for 24 hours you'll get a lot more views than normal.

Having a Backup Guy

Apparently, even is a girl is flirting you but not giving compliance below the waist (not willing to meet anyway even for a simple a walk in the park, for example), they get jealous of you talking to someone else. I had this happen in dance class where one blonde goes as far as holding my hand like a couple during the lesson, yet that's it. Nothing outside of dance class.

So during another class I'm helping another woman out a lot, she's struggling with one particular move in the lesson. We rotate partners, next is the blonde one. She acts "playfully" jealous.

Lesson - women do love attention and the idea of a "backup person" and when you give that attention to anyone else, they wonder what the deal is, they wonder deep down if the "backup guy" in their eyes, will be there. By not giving more attention than they've earned via compliance you filter out women that really aren't into you, leading to a change in mindset.

Maintain frame (Dont Give In) Small Sample.

I had joined a dance project to put myself out there more and deal with the fear of being on stage. And YES to get some STATUS as well.

At the video location for the project I asked one of the girls (same blonde as above) to take a few photos of me for instagram and I did the same for her. As we walked back to the group

she mentioned that she didn't like that I posted a post dance picture of us from a social event we danced at. Fair enough, I offered to remove the photo, no questions asked. She said she liked the photo but didn't like that I posted it without asking. So it stayed up. Fast forward a few weeks, she starts following me on ig!

Women love photos and videos with them in it (attention)

Another girl I took photos with from the dance project asked not to post on instagram. Out of respect I agreed. Guess what... she ended up posting her OWN photos of us anyway.

I know I mention dancing alot, but it is a great ice break and to warm up socially. Even though I am trying to cold approach again to work on starting a conversation with strangers, its tough to do it

without having a "real reason" to cold approach. I'm trying to read the Mystery Method to help with this.
