Tease
Aimed at her (medium risk)
“Wow, you are a ridculous person for making that statement.”
Flirting
Flirt
Aimed at us / our relationship (high risk)

Flirting
Flirt Progression (Ex. 1)

- “You’re a stange person for being interested in that, and I don’t date strange people.”
Flirting
Flirt Progression (Ex. 2)
e.g. weird home state
- “That’s a weird home state.”
- “I’m not quite sure about what that says about you as a person?”

False Time Constraints

- “There is this great place, maybe I’ll take you there, but let’s hang out here a little longer.”

The Wall Exercise
- L1: keep talking, despite no response
- L2: estabilish premise (e.g. “I like you, but you’re so flat”
- L3: H-V frame (e.g. you’re wanted, the wall likes you, you’re used to getting positive social feedback)
Reminder
Too Much Power
Once you have enough power, focus on getting to know her and moving forward, not on acquiring more and more power
Push-Pulls
- If you say a neg., follow w/ pos.
