Learning to Pick Up

When I was 16 years old, I went to stay for 2 weeks in Japan. It was an eye opening experience – an amazing new culture and I slept with 3 girls on that trip. I’d broken up with my first girlfriend before going on the trip and it’d been heartwrenching at the time. Imagine my surprise when I got there and discovered how easy it was to learn to pick up.

I naturally had the basics of pick up down already at that point. I just knew the right things to do. I wasn’t the most popular kid in school but I was close. The girls all liked me. I had their numbers, both metaphorically and literally.

Learning to pick up was wild. I was a little hesitant but I knew what I wanted. There were all these cute young girls in sexy clothes walking around and I couldn’t really help myself. “Wow, you’re beautiful,” I said to the first girl I ran into, and she gave me this cute look and giggled and right away I knew I’d found a calling.

I realized that learning to pick up wasn’t going to be hard so long as I remembered two things:

  1. Always say what’s on your mind, and
  2. Jump into action

Doing just those two things got me 3 cuties in the sack in 2 weeks and there was no stopping me after that. I slept with half the cheerleading squad over the next year when I got back home. I was the guy the girls all whispered that they hated but secretly couldn’t stop thinking about (or getting it from).

What’s the importance of those 2 things you ask?

Think about it like this: if you say what’s on your mind you’ll never end up in that place where there’s an awkward silence or she’s wondering if you like her or not. Holding back and trying to protect your thoughts is probably my #1 theory of what kills guys the most with girls. Tell her what’s on your mind and watch how she turns into silly putty all over your hands.

And if you’re constantly jumping into action you’ll never end up in that bad place where you’re walking around telling yourself you wished you’d start picking up girls at some point. Because instead of wishing that… you’re DOING it!
