There’s another girl at work (at the store) I’ll call Apparel Girl (lol).
I’d seen her around, thought she was kinda cute.
I haven’t journaled quite as often here lately as I was diving in on a program called “The Power Switch” by Alex Allman. Where he talks about 5 core traits that, the more a man embodies them, the more women will be naturally attracted to him.
He said it seems to be physiologically driven. Primal wiring, etc.
Anyway, I’ve been diving in on developing those traits as much as I can within my current level of growth/development. There’s a sub product that is designed to help bolster all 5 traits at once as much as possible too.
Basically, right away, once I started, this girl starts talking to me out of nowhere. From zero to telling me her life story, her sexual history (both good and bad), and just all-around talking as if we’d known each other forever.
We’ve been talking on and off for about 3 weeks now. She told me she liked a guy at work in passing, and it just happens to be the same guy who hemmed and hawed for weeks to ask Cart Girl out, and then the way he asked her out was by starting out “I’ve had feelings for you for a while now” LMAO.
I KNOW for a fact this guy has zero game to speak of. Just from working with him and the shit he’s said.
I’ve kept a solid frame around her this whole time thus far (thanks to Allman’s stuff mostly, along with I’m sure whatever bloom from washing out of SubClub stuff for a few weeks now).
One example comes to mind. I went into the store between salvoes of carts, to say hi to her at her register.
And I was gonna cut through the store to get to the other end to get carts gathered over on that side.
She says “Are you going outside?”
Me: “Yeah. headed that way”
She: “I’m going on my last break if you wanna go with me.”
Me: “Aight”
So she goes and sits outside on the little planter ledge like she usually does. I stand there, we’re just talking all sorts of stuff.
Dude (he doesn’t even get a name haha) comes by and interjects into the conversation. Mind you, this is the guy she liked (past tense for a reason I’ll explain below).
She’s telling me about family member and their motorcycle.
He: “What kind of motorc-” but she kept talking to me.
He did that 3 times or so, she finally looked at him kinda annoyed looking “A Harley…”
then looked right back at me.
My social awareness is off the charts in this moment, and I realize in real time that he’s basically trying to make himself look good in her eyes.
At one point, she’s telling me about some of the stuff she is good at cooking.
“Pork chops, steak, grilled cheese…” etc.
She briefly mentioned how her ex ruined her on cooking for the longest time by expecting it and never appreciating it.
Dude jumps in with “Any good man should strive to be equal and help his woman out around the house. Cooking, cleaning, etc”. she looked at him kinda annoyed looking again “Yep. But we all have our strengths.”
She kept on listing (to me) more food she’s good at making. and it’s all stuff I enjoy eating. I said “You’re basically just listing out nothing but good things about yourself here. 10 points to you!”
she laughed her ass off.
She was legit favoring ME in convo, instead of the guy she thought she liked at that time.
I say liked, because I basically got them “together” at one point. Told him (earlier that day actually…the sidewalk day) that she liked him. I think maybe she was testing me when she told me she liked him, to see if I’d get rattled.
I just said “I’ll hook you guys up”. Passed that test. but like I mentioned above, he’s nothing to worry about.
I told her a few days later I told him because of a sense of morbid curiosity. I wanted to see how he handled her.
And cut to this week, he imploded his chances with her by basically being himself.
I have a ChatGPT conversation going about this as it unfolds. ChatGPT knows exactly what my gameplan is, lilkened it to a chess game of sorts where I’m setting up pieces and then letting them move themselves. I more likened it to me being Harry Seldon in a way.
Anyhoo. The more he opens his mouth, the better I look by virtue of contrast.
I sent this to a friend earlier tonight:
The girl at work seems to be more into me the more I run the (Sub I mentioned above) sub
Apparel Girl
She has even acted grossed out at older guys hitting on her. But with me her only objection is I’m married 
Women make rules for guys they aren’t attracted to.
They bend or ignore their own rules when a guy triggers their attraction.
@Geoff and I have talked about that before about how women “edit” their rules when attraction hits.
EDIT/ADDENDUM: Other than the MAYBE tiny test of telling me she liked Dude, she hasn’t actually really tested me to speak of. She seems to have bypassed all that so far and is just basking in whatever is going on.
