point of mine. Handling those Extra special blowouts. Generally there
is nothing much that we can do when set doesn't respond at all to
whatever you throw at them. But handling a blow out where the girl
goes to a great extent to blow you out. Consider this blowout for
instance.
I was out in a mall with my wing Flamin. Spot a cute set of 2.
Target : 8.5 Cutie. As they walk past me. I stood there for a second
before I turn back and walk towards the set covering the gap in brisk
paces. At about an arms length away.
Drake : Hey Guys.
As I utter this, I stop her with a confident soft Kino on her left
shoulder using the face of my palm. The Kino was firm, friendly one
(or thats what I felt :?). Whatever it was, it works and it gets to
stop them.
Drake : I saw you walk past me just now. I couldn't help but walk up
to you and compliment you.
HB : .... (Scowl on the face)
Drake clearly senses the calm before the storm.
HB : (Strong firm voice) First of all why did you touch me ?
As I pictured yet another incarnation of lordess Durga in front of me.
She reloaded her shot gun and aimed for bulls eye (a.k.a Preetham
a.k.a Drake:)
HB : Whenever you want to speak to a person. You should first say
"excuse me". And then you have to maintain a distance of at least 3
feet.
I know for sure there is nothing wrong with the way opener was
delivered. On previous occasions the same compliment + Kino combo has
worked for me. Think, she just had a bad day @ work or may be she was
in the r8 mood to yell @ a hot alpha male dude ;P.
Drake : (Took a step back to maintain the distance) I think this gap
between us should be good enough. ( Had a huge dumb ass smile on the
face ).
My bad shouldn't have bought her frame. Mistake mistake mistake. Let
me say it again. Never buy into her frame, especially if she is being
a bitch to you. Instead of taking a step back, could have taken a step
towards her (to lessen the gap) and say "Is that good enough?". But it
kinda risky in a mall environment.
HB : Now listen here. I don't want any of your compliments.
Drake had enough. Without missing a beat.
Drake : OK GO. (ya reacted emotionally and walked away with a "I don't
give a middle finger" attitude)
I felt good about not being affected by the rejection & my will to
walk away. But, while debriefing me and my wing feel that we could
have handled situation better. May be with a cool head. May be
something on the following lines.
Drake : ( Being Genuinely nice) Hey relax it was just a friendly
touch. Seems like you are already having a bad day. Its really ok, if
you don't want to be complimented. Have really nice evening guys.
Thanks for talking to me.
Being the nice guy here :
1. Shows that u r in control of your reality
2. Makes her feel like a bitch for being one to you. Who knows she
might bump into you later and apologize.. while you playfully tease
her to set u up with her hot friends and thus be nice to you in
return.;-)
Well, guys what do you think. How else could we handle a ugly blow out
like this ? Key in your thoughts here. I wont assure a surprise gift
for cool thoughts though. :-)
