2 million people a day use the tube. That?s a lot of HBs, whichever way you look at it. I?ve started gaming on the tube in earnest in the last few months and have started getting numbers and dates. I?ve put together?some guidelines that I’ve found useful; I say ‘guidelines’ rather than ‘rules’ because you need to be flexible when you do pick-up!
1st guideline: ignore what everyone says about the underground ? that everyone?s miserable, that you must never talk or make eye contact with anyone, etc. Bollocks! If no other guy does that, well, great, that means less competition for you! Contrast that with a nightclub when every chump is hitting on the girls. Plus HBs won?t be expecting an approach on their journey home!
2nd guideline: ignore other passengers. Sometimes when I?m gaming I get a little audience listening in over the tops of their newspapers. Blank them out and keep going. If you show your nervousness you will communicate that to the girl. Conversely if you show you?re comfortable with the situation then the?girl will share your confidence. Remember, people get on and off tubes all the time and your eavesdroppers will always get bored lose interest ? after all, they have their lives to get on with, and other things to do.
3rd guideline: don?t linger and let a girl see you checking her out before you approach. Always try and make it look SPONTANEOUS. Especially on platforms. Through trial and error I?ve found that?s the key. That?s the value of the ?3-second? rule. As soon as she sees you, you MUST talk.
4th guideline: if you want to game on the platform, check on the electronic board to see when the next tube is due. If it?s less than 2 or 3 minutes you might want to wait until you both get on the tube itself. The reason, I?ve found, is this. If you chat for 30 seconds and then a train comes roaring in to the station and there?s lots of hustle and bustle as everyone gets on and off, then in the confusion the girl?s ?state? will be broken, you lose what little rapport you?ve established and it?s hard to restart again on the train. Also, after such a brief conversation she may not be comfortable with you sitting next to/opposite her. If by contrast the next train is due in?5 minutes or more, then ok ? that should be enough time to establish some rapport on the platform, maybe share a joke etc. Then when the train comes and there?s a break in the conversation she?ll feel comfortable continuing your chat and comfortable sitting near you. You can more easily pick up where you left off. Get it?
Ok, that?s the guidelines done. Now what do you actually say?! Sorry to keep you in suspense but…tune in next week for part 2?of my post for the answers!
